=Thoughts on {{PAGENAME}}=
==={{PAGENAME}} in a nutshell===
Hemera is a ranged support warjack, who buffs ranged attacks for the rest of the army, and can increase the FOCUS efficiency of Issyria. With its Empowered nifty arc node, and bond, Issyria gets a net of 2 FOCUS per turn, which can be spent elsewhere. Its gun's critical effect is nice when it triggers, but due to its average RAT it isn't something to base a strategy on. In close combat it is a little pillow fisted, even for a Retribution jack owing to having just the one melee initial, but like all Myrmidons, can be buffed up to S+P 17 by an Arcanist.
 
===Combos & Synergies===
[[File:Issyria1.jpg|thumb|[[Issyria1]]]]
* [[Issyria]] is the only model that will benefit from her bond; upkeeping Admonition or Inviolable Resolve on a key target for free, or even both if [[Sylys Wyshnalyrr]] is also employed. Empowered Arc node is always useful to apply Blinding Light from a distance and under her feat Hemera gets True Sight too, so you can channel spells upon stealthy targets beyond the usual 5" threshold.
* Mark Target is a general RAT fixer - allowing you to catch elusive targets, and shore up your chances with Critical Effects - read, the Critical Consume on the [[Hyperion]]'s Starburst Cannon. Stacked with other RAT fixing effects, such as the [[Dawnguard Trident]]'s Shooting Gallery, you can reliably hit even the most elusive of targets.
* [[Garryth2]] has a neat interaction with the Empowered Arc-Node in that channeled spells can still benefit from Witch Mark, so he can reduce the cost on his Mortality spell, while still auto-hitting with it. Additionally, Road to War and Repo 3 will make sure Hemera is always int he correct position to mark targets, which naturally benefitts are shooty caster.
 
===Drawbacks & Downsides===
* Low combat stats overall
* To get full use of her abilities, she needs to play forward more than is often comfortable.
 
===Tricks & Tips===
* Mark Target and Arc Node tend to be triky to set up; you must get close to get the +2 bonus to hit, but also must remain unengaged to be able to channel, use Reposition to set up the perfect angle.
* Use Admonition to get out of melee with would be attackers and set up Mark Target for your next turn.

Dual Attack
Dual Attack

This model can make melee and ranged attacks in the same activation. When this model makes its initial melee attacks, it can also make its initial ranged attacks. A model with Dual Attack can make its initial melee and ranged attacks in any order you choose. This model cannot make ranged attacks after making a power attack.

  Errata-Dual Attack and Unit Charges (2023-10-27)
Question: If a unit with Dual Attack charges a single model, are all placed in melee range, and the first model kills the charge target, can the remaining members of the unit make ranged attacks, or do they forfeit their Combat Action because they don't have any enemy models in their melee range?
Answer: The check for melee range is done at the end of movement. If you kill the targets before they attack, they can still do their ranged attack. (Malkav13)
Explanation: This post is correct.

  Errata-Dual Attack and Special Attacks (2023-08-10)
Question: Can a model with Dual Attack make any combination of ranged special attack and normal melee initial attacks, or its melee special attack and normal ranged initial attacks? (Example: Bison Both Barrels and Ram, or Mariner Thresher and gunshot).
Answer: No.
Explanation: The bison can not use dual attack and also make a special attack. That is correct in that (Thresher) example too.
