Question Roll for concentration

So I started with SP as my first army and im loving it so far however adhd is kicking in and im looking towards what force i should collect next ? Especially something that can contrast SP gameplay wise. I was thinking Shas, TAK, or HB as I do like the look of all of them however I'm open to suggestions beyond those.

I think you've answered your own question haha.

Only thing I would suggest is using your SP to proxy first because all three of those factions still have very different play styles. But other than that, yeah I think these would b exactly what I'd suggest.

One thing to note about TAK is it has a lot less durability than SP, at least it did when I played back in N4. I can’t actually speak to the new N5 releases though cause I’ve been out of the game raising kids for the last two years.

I think both TAK and HB would be good follow ups (from what I’ve looked at next and playing against them a bit)—can’t speak to Shas (although the models are definitely cool).

I started with SP and moved to Kosmoflot as a follow up—very similar in some ways (warbands everywhere), but also has more flexibility in listbuilding and a solid selection of low-cost but genuinely useful units (i.e. Irmandinhos). You get a lot of that with TAK (along with portable autocannons, which are glorious), along with the best camo shell game available. You can mostly ignore hacking with either, which felt comfortable coming from Phalanx (although having the option for incredible hacking with Thamyris/Scylla was always great).

I’m planning on HB next because it’s different (more hidden deployment and impersonation shenanigans over camo), but also has a ton of list variety, flexible links, solid defensive options, good hacking, decent melee, and some cool high-tech equipment (holomask and holoprojector look very entertaining).
