Infinity Sectorial: Nomads

Good day to you my fellow wargamers and welcome to my second to last post about the different Infinity Sectorials available in Human Sphere N3!  Unlike my last post which can be summarized as a bunch of America jokes for the USAriadna Rangers (since my knowledge on them is about the equivalent of a potato), I actually have played some games as the Nomads and so this one should be a bit more informative.

So the Nomad force is a quirky grab-bag representing the unique aspect of the lore.  Instead of having a traditional culture steeped in a home world you have 3 massive spaceships going between the different worlds collecting the outcasts, the odd ones, and the unique.  Currently there are only 2 Sectorials out representing two of those ships.  First up we have the Corregidor Jurisdictional Command which originally hails from, if memory serves, a South American and Australian prison ship turned into the security/mercenary/hard muscle inclined part of the fleet.  Second we have the Bakunin Jurisdictional Command which is made up of the bulk of outcasts and quirky individuals hanging out on the ships.

The Nomads in their true form

With that in mind I am sure I would favor the Corregidor Sectorial for sure, it has two of my favorite units in the faction: the Mobile Brigada and the Geckos.  Love 'em.  It has a good selection of units and troops to take from ranging from the Alguaciles to having the Jaguars.  In terms of fireteams we can take a few Core selections from the following: Alguaciles, Wildcats, Mobile Brigada, and Jaguars (with Senor Massacre).  We can take some Haris teams as well including the Wildcats and Jaguars (with Senor Massacre again).  Finally we can take a Duo team of Geckos.

Love this TAG, from an unknown blogspot (will add link once I find it)

For specialists I would not be lacking with this Sectorial as there are plenty of options across the board, especially for hacking, and in each Core team I can take a couple specialists.  The Mobile Brigada might be a bit lacking in terms of variety but they can take a hacker which can help out against other hackers.  Wildcats wouldn't be a bad option either.  An assault hacker with an engineer put in the group with some light flamethrowers and D-charges could lay down some serious hurt.  I'd consider the Alguaciles but in truth I think I would prefer my Core team to be a bit more beefy since I only get 1.

Not a bad model or fireteam

Even outside a fireteam the Corregidor have plenty of specialist options for ITS missions.  Seriously it's like a bonanza of choices.  The Alguaciles have 3 options, Mobile Brigada have 1, Wildcats 2, Tomcats have 4 profiles, and so on!  In a non-ITS mission I would have no qualms about taking some of the more ridiculous choices.  5 Mobile Brigada with a Missile Launcher, with a Daktaris patching them back up?  Why yes please!  Even the Jaguars are a consideration considering the massive amount of smoke grenades they can toss out, though any MSV is going to cut right through that plan.

One of the new models, the Bandit.  Nice!

There is definitely a mercenary/'loco' soldier vibe I get from Corregidor and I think the models are pretty solid too.  With that in mind I think sticking with them as a Sectorial will be more my thing when it comes to Nomads.  Unless they do a Tunguska one then I might be tempted to stray to a different ship (I do like the Grenzers).  Anyways that about settles it for Nomads, so until next time lads and lasses take care and happy gaming!
