Thrasymedes Link Team Rule Query

by Mickem » February 10th, 2015, 12:22 pm

Hi guys and gals (of the best skirmish game),
I'd like to have something clarified for me OR at least hear what people are doing.

Thrasymedes (ALEPH Dire Foes character) on the N3 Unit Profile states on page 159 that "note 1: only the enomotarchos version of the chandra sergeant thrasymedes can be part of a thorakitai fireteam in the aleph’s steel phalanx (2+1 or 3+1)."

However on page 221 under Steel Phalanx it says for Thrasymedes "(1) Special: Only the Enomotarchos version of the Chandra Sergeant Thrasymedes can be part of a Seed-Soldiers Fireteam (2+1; 3+1 or 4+1)."

So, does anyone know which page I should believe? Personally, I feel that the thorakitai fireteam makes more sense than the seed-soldiers.

Teach me oh great community!

TL;DR - Is Thrasymedes linkable to thorakitai or seed-soldiers?

Thorakitai, the Seed-Soldiers thing was probably a copy-paste fail.

Occam's Razor, my friend:

Seed Soldiers (as a Link Team - capable unit) are available only in the Shasvasti sectorial.

Sergeant Thrasymedes, in any variat, is available only in the Aleph and Assault SubSection sectorial (and vanilla aleph can't field Link Teams of any kind).

Enomotarchos Fireteams are available only in the ASS sectorial.

Therefore, you can not have Shasvasti Seed Soldiers in the same army as Thrasymedes.
However, you can have Enomotarchos-capable models in the same ASS army as Thrasymedes.

Which in turn means that Seed soldiers cannot form a Link with Thrasymedes, as they can not be fielded within the same army - leaving the Enomotarchos option (in ASS) as the only one viable.

TL;DR:
- Enomotarchos + Thrasymedes = OK,
- Seed Soldiers + Thrasymedes = bleeeh!

Awesome. Thanks for the clarification guys. I thought it was a fail but I had to double check.
Link team here we go!
