Brigador Killers in a nutshell.
Dave goes on a vacation. Dave walks into a bar with Kriel Tet in hand and goes ka-chk BOOM point blank. An ex-Brigador becomes ex-ex-Brigador.
Why do they call Nobrean combatants "Dave" anyway?
As expected, the model is a placeholder.
In the Spacer villa mission (The one with the tank) your only option is to prepare 2 Panel Van (VBIED) and slamming it into Spacer tank's backside. Even if you bring out uparmored NOSPOL APC with 2 Porcos, tank will melt you in a blink of an eye.
However if you somehow manage to take out the damn tank and escape, now you can do Sinkhole mission and farm exotic weapons and ammunition. This opens up new possibilities, and snatching the Juke powersuit is one of them.
You need to get your hands on *Lockdown,* an automatic energy weapon that MELT the shields and cause machines to shut down. Run the Sinkhole over and again, or if you feel ballsy enough, wear weapon sling and repeat the villa mission. 1 Juke is guaranteed to spawn close to Spacer tank, which means the first VBIED attack will kill it and drop 1 Lockdown. (It also drops Black Hand.)
So now you have a Lockdown. Mount it on a vehicle. (I used Sprat Van Cannon variant.) Take medkits. (You *NEED* them. I will explain it later.) Start villa mission riding the vehicle with Lockdown. Advance up north slowly and take out the Dromon sniper. 2 shot from lockdown kills it. If the sniper get to shoot at you it can complicate things, so it doesn't hurt to go full auto at the cost of ammo. It's silent anyway. Move slightly up northwest and you'll see a Juke powersuit with hardshields down, minding its own- This is the Juke we are going to steal.
Now comes the hard part. You must: Bait the Juke Spacer, cause them to bail out, get in the suit and heal it (!) with your medkit before the suit explode. (In the current version of BK you can somehow use healing items even if you are in a vehicle, and it heals the vehicle instead of your on-foot HP. 100% gonna be fixed in future but at that point we will have access to saner options to farm powersuits anyway.)
Since Lockdown is silent, baiting the Juke Spacer isn't that difficult. Drop the medkits on the spot where you want the Spacer to bail out. Shoot the Juke slowly and carefully- Make sure the hardshield is burned out and cannot regenerate, but also make sure that it doesn't blow up immediately. You also should make it move further away from the tank. Remember: Tank = Death.
Lockdown cause vehicles to shut down. It would be great this forced AI into bailing out faster, but it doesn't- In fact, the AI cannot bail out when the vehicle is shut down this way. So keep shooting single shots, make sure that the suit stays around the spot where you dropped the medkit. Shoot the suit, wait until it wakes up, take 1 more shot, repeat until bailout. And as soon as the spacer bails out- Run up to the empty Juke and take it, and *IMMEDIATELY* "Heal" from the medkit you dropped nearby. (The bailed out spacer will not attack you for some reason.)
The spacer might not bail out at all. They might bail out literal milliseconds before the suit blow up. It's all about luck and madness and multiple tries. But if you manage to take the suit and heal it, congratulations! Now you own a Juke powersuit. Since villa mission has an elevator, you can safely return the powersuit to garage and happily let the tank run over you. Who cares about the mission anyway?
By the way, you *can* try the same thing with the Spacer tank in the same mission, if you manage to take down its dummy thicc hardshields. But the spacer in the tank never bails out so it doesn't work. I think this is intentional, because said tank doesn't even drop weapons at the moment.
They drop 120~170 credits on death and an occasional bag of chips. You want the money. You *NEED* the money.
Kick the suits. Acquire credits.
Farm comfy maps. Get guns that doesn't suck.
Make your own supply route. (Milk run where you mostly just buy ammo and come back) Stockpile ammo.
Load up 400 rounds of 7.62x51mm with an assault rifle. Watch NOSPOL get shredded. You'd still need an upgunned vehicle or a Carmine rig to do safe runs, but if you're going to be squishy anyway, it's much better to be *DANGEROUS* kind of squishy.
So this ability only works on *BATTLELINE INFANTRY* models when used as an Imperium allied unit, BUT applies to *ALL* models with *Faction keyword : Agents of the Imperium* models, right?
In other words, this ability can benefit ALL UNITS (Minus allied units) when your army faction is Imperial Agents. Did I get it right? For some reason it feels like GW rephrased or revised the text...
