5 best O12 units

When Mayacast featured my favourite faction in their 'top 5 units' feature I had to listen. I was SHOCKED to find a few of my favourites missing from their analysis.

So here are 5 units that are my absolute top 5 O12 units, and none of them featured on Mayacast's podcast. If you're looking to some of O12's best units, look no further!

This video is fantastic for a newer player like myself! 😄 Especially because you're mentioning units that come in the first boxes an O-12 player might buy, as opposed to the Mayacast list which mentioned a lot of shared units that felt a little obscure and hard to wrap my head around. Would love to see more videos like this for vanilla Nomads, Ariadna, and Haq!

I miss so much Team Sirius & Gangbuster in Starmada... Definitely good pieces

Great video, thank you! Was playing my first Infinity game ever yesterday. 150 points, Nomads vs. O-12. The other player (Kai) had the lists equally prepared for both of us, mine had the Feuerbach Gamma, the multi sniper Epsilon, the shotgun Gangbuster and three Kappas, one of them my Lieutenant. The Epsilon was the model of the game, as it took down the Kriza Borac with a single shot in round one. My Gangbuster was blown into pieces in round one by a Heckler with a shotgun, but guess what, he took it with him, so not too bad. This Nomads Hollow Men gave me quite a headache, jumping around like crazy and killing my Lieutenant in round two. Thankfully my Gamma hollowed the Hollow Men with its Feuerbach during the irregular order .. that was more or less the end of the game. It was due to great content like your's that I didn’t feel too noobish at the table so thanks again! Kai was a great teacher (think he went really easy on me), met him for the first time yesterday, very nice of him to offer this and to host me a game. I’m absolutely hooked with Infinity now.

great video! as an idea you could also make a video of different example lists (agressive one, midfield control and defensive, for example). keep going like you are doing, love this channel

Thanks for the vid! Been primarily playing basic CodeOne games . Cool to get a peek into more advanced strategies.

Just got the O-12 Action pack alongside Operation Kaldstrom yesterday! Looking forward to finally jumping into Code One !:D

I just shelled out for a new O-12 army - nearly everything that can be used in Code One aside from copperbots.
What would you recommend using for a sidebot? Would a Yudbot be acceptable?
I really would like to see a dismounted Lawkeeper and Sidebot blister - or a box with a pair of each and a pair on bikes.

Could you do Shasvastii? :) great vid as always mate!

[DarthNov]

Damn I just settled for Combined army...don’t hype me up for anything else. 😅 can you do it for combined army 😇 always a pleasure to watch your content ! And what would you recommend for a beginner out of combined army, nomads or o-12.

The podcast link seems to be defunct. Anyone know what units they mentioned?

[dennisstark]

Very good thoughts there👍
Im totaly on youre side with the Epsilon HMG, but none of the O12 Players I know want to play it that way... Thats where I always kill the Sniper, first Round, minimum effort🤦‍♂️
Gangbusters are good because they are cheap, but not especialy fantastic, when I Compare it with my YuJing Infiltrators. Its good, but Im not 100% in there with you😉

[sambenson]

Raptor Boarding Squad should be up there. The KHD is 0 swc and is the best profile.

[bostria]

No Nyokas? They have the best concept desing of O-12!

So a few of my top 5 are on their list or yours. Not going to say which ones as people should listen for themselves because it is good. I do have a problem that is somewhat spoiler so I will save it.

So my top 5 that I like that are not mentions by one of the other 3 in no particular order.

Zeta, at one point I gave my brother a Szalamander and he kept telling me that it is great fun stomping around the battle field while shooting 5 dice.... He was right. He is best when lurking around your deployment zone close to good protection from enemy hackers.
Bronze, if you want a mid field rock him with a red fury will do that job you just need to get him out to the mid field which is easier to do in vanilla. Bronze+Zeta can be a wall of armor your enemy is just baffled by especially if you have some killer hackers weighting near by.
Razors, I find hidden deployment mid fielders as a great way to brake mix links or get points. To break a mix link let the point man pass you then on there next order kill the fleshy members of mix links
Noyka, for the recorder I HATE there models but the bonus damage on an HRL, multi rifle parachutist or red fury is nice and I feel well worth it.
Psi-Cops, this is my budget rambo of choice. 25 points mimitism -3 msv 1 with a multi marksmen, yes not a lot of choice that may be better then him but there are few bad targets for this one and they are 0 swc, which matters if you are dumping a lot in the Zeta or multiple HI.

But isnt that great in itself - shows how balanced the game is if you couldnt get any overlap at all :-)
