Or come up with something like they did for Combined and Autotool. You can take Batroids as long as you have a figure with G:Mnemonica.

IMO the Vedic set will contain a hacker with regular HD to buff the remotes, Spotlight models, and function as a Specialist without interacting with enemy models. This would constitute the easiest way to introduce players to Hacking.
I doubt(hope) the garuda with CR will be in the set. maybe another MI msv troop? probably won't get camo and to camo. I'd expect at least 1-2 new units in there too. Maybe a new smoke source and heavy remote
Regarding the need for a hacker to field the dakinis : if you have at least one of Deva / Naga / Asura you can take either as a hacker. just like in the previous/current Aleph starter I don't think this rule will be applied in the first several missions included with the 2p box if it is at all anyway.
my guess would be pre-order ending at interplanetary, so starting a month or so before then with teasers starting a week or two
Do we normally see more releases than just the 2-player starter? I think we're (more or less) all in agreement that Vedic vs. TAK is coming. I'm reasonablly confident that sniper shot was the Wardiver, which will be the pre-order bonus figure.
It's bee something like 2player box, early release of X box, gencon exclusive blister. we will probably see something aristeria added to that list too
I'm pretty sure this is Perseus, it matches current Myrmidons almost perfectly (maybe with a bit of redesign):
It's the same belt the wardriver, warcor, and brawler all have in their dossier. My money is on the wardriver.
It also matches the Wardriver dossier almost perfectly. But I could see either. If it is Perseus it is quite different to the existing Myrmidons though.
Avicenna body swapped to hide from aleph, who knows. Though amusingly there are 2 greek legends of ppl swapping genders cause gods are dicks Caeneus and Tiresias (cause he hit a snake with a stick, greek legends were wierd) But nah that pic I think is new Deva, has their uniform shoe shape with some new straps with new style aleph knife I do wonder what Perseus' design will be, will he just be a Myrm painted black, mixed nomad and aleph aesthetics or maybe complete Nomad style armour (or atleast Nomads take on it, so keep the shield) EDIT so what are we expecting Tunguska releases to look like Securitate SWC box (HMG-sniper-Shotgun-Feurbach (hacker seperate?)) Grenzer Box (missile-spitfire-boarding shotgun-combi) Hollow men box (either 3 with tin bot + 1 loose, or box of 4) (I think spitfire-shotgun-combi-tinbot spitfire seperate) Zond nautica Box (1 bike 2 normal, kinda like yojimbo, maybe alternate arms for loadouts) heckler Boarding shotgun Stempler Redesign (please) Puppet blister (1 master chilling in VR headset and 3 remote) Mary Problems blister Perseus blister Raoul blister (wouldnt suprise me if he was gencon reveal alot of factions waiting on him) Nomad Support redesign (also please) personaly id like release order to go Hollow men>Grenzer>puppet master>zond>securitate>raoul>perseus>mary
