Technicians and Mechanics

[CmdrKiley]

This was just pointed out to me. I may have misunderstood it in the past.

Having a model with the Hero: Technician allows it to field 1 additional Green Tesla device above and beyond the requirements of the Detachment and the Mechanic.

So can you field the Technician Hero and a Green Tesla unit, but no Mechanic in your detachment?

[mkcontra]

Yes. Same with Scientist and Chuman Parent (and all similar hero types). Also note that the Green Tesla unit is a bonus, so if you had a Technician in an Infantry Detachment, you'd have 5 green slots, 1 of which had to be Tesla.

[Darkson]

Correct.

Thanks!

Then I was doing it right.

Doesn't an Infantry Detachment get three Green slots base plus the one for the hero? Where is the fifth one from? Or am I wrong? I don't have my book in front of me.

[mkcontra]

Oh, is Inf only 3? Crap, you're right, it's 1/1/3/3. I was thinking of Vet for some reason; yes it would be 4.

You get the idea though.
