Starmada relaunch | a new threat?

[@morgunevans3676]

Starmada is so fun, I think starmada is super playable right now. With the roadbot also being in vanilla I still see O12 as the more competitive option, but I love how awesome starmada feels right now.

[@the_infinitygamer]

Same. I feel like they could be a very difficult force to beat now.

[@ExtraCarnex]

One of the big things about varangian fireteams is you can duo them with some really intersting wildcards which for a start lets them start the game without impetuous and in some cases gives free orders for smoke or movement on other models.

[@the_infinitygamer]

Which duo do you think it’s the best to check out with a Varangian?

[@ExtraCarnex]

@@the_infinitygamer There are 2 I find interesting most notanly the PSI-cop because it has a MSV so you have a 2 man team with access to smokes and a way to shoot through those smokes in one team and the other one is the Tian Gou just as way to bring something your opponent isnt expecting especially if its the killer hacker and you do something like Holomask as a second Varangian so they are less likely to thing its something a hacker needs to worry about. Shona is another option but if feel she would better off in a different fireteam but the Varangian at least lets you smoke forward with it.

[@the_infinitygamer]

I definitely like the idea of the Nyoka. I feel like that and a Bronze could be great.

[@manuelcolazo6752]

I think the biggest change is also the Bronze HMG... High fire power in a really good HI, and linkeable

[@the_infinitygamer]

Is that a new Bronze profile or is the link team inclusion new?

[@tnexus13]

@@the_infinitygamer went from duo to a trio

[@manuelcolazo6752]

@@the_infinitygamer they never had the HMG option before

[@the_infinitygamer]

Oooooh that’s pretty cool. 360 HMG in a core 🤤

[@the_infinitygamer]

Could do a pure Nyoka Core too

[@RattlerNxt]

The Bronze HMG is a real pipe hitter profile.

[@christopherbeers8095]

So glad they added this profile

[@the_infinitygamer]

It’s does look brutal. Will have to run it next time I think.

[@welshinfinitygamer5133]

Wow! I’ve run the RoadBot at least 3 times now and I never noticed that it doesn’t have motorbike on the profile. That means it can go prone! That’s huge

[@SirRengeti]

It is also S3 and not S4.

[@the_infinitygamer]

The two S profiles I use the least clearly!

[@the_infinitygamer]

That is actually a bigger deal than I thought. Thanks for pointing that out!

[@erchicheck244]

The biggest reason to look at the Varangian fire teams, is to link them up if you are going second, your varangians can claim partial cover until you break the link before your turn to generate orders.

[@the_infinitygamer]

That’s not a bad idea at all.

[@squadof5]

Roadbot!!! Reminds me of the Robotech Cyclone.

[@the_infinitygamer]

These ones? www.gamespot.com/articles/robotech-invasion-cyclone-profiles/1100-6106548/

"Don't call it a comeback" ;)

I’m here for it!

Mamma said knock you out! 😅

[@brothwood4108]

Only need to get Guerilla Miniatures in on this comment thread to get all the big dogs together.

[@the_infinitygamer]

Don’t! A wormhole will appear and suck us all into a geek den of no escape.

[@SirRengeti]

I played one game with a Roadbot, Sarkos and a Beta + Epsilon + Sekudroid core team and it felt really good. I am excited to play more Starmada. The Bearpode also is mixed material, with the handler being metal and the bear being Siocast. :)

[@5p3cu10]

Epsilon, 3 betas and secu FT. Death to anything in Active and ARO. Haris Kappa for orders and low tier button pressing. Roadbot medic with mini-me. Ghosthacker with HD+. Varangian. Oko-bot. Milli-bot. Totally covered. Massive hacking potential. Varangy throwing smoke in active, abusing MSV on epsilon. Spitfire betatrooper for ARO. Only thing really lacking is engineering profile. Its not perfect but it has a lot of output potential

[@the_infinitygamer]

Ouch! That’s a pretty deadly list!

[@eyaldiskin3665]

I think the bearpode pack is mixed material (bear itself is siocast and it's controller is in metal)

[@the_infinitygamer]

That would make sense. Sadly I gave mine up as a prize so never got to open the box 😭

[@shotou]

I've started catching up on the 0-12 stuff, but should I pivot into Starmada maybe?

[@the_infinitygamer]

I think so. But then I’m a sucker for sectorials.

[@Griffolion0]

I looked at Starmada about a month ago and thought "wow they really could do with a camo given how much HD and camo vanilla gets" and then they release the Sarko. So, I'm not saying I was solely responsible for it, but...

[@the_infinitygamer]

Myself and all Starmada players thank you for your efforts!
