Yadu is great. I need to find a way to use here is my pano force or corrupt for nomads. I also really like new dakinis and their poses. The only bad thing is Ratnik. Who looks like a bad crossover of taskmaster legs, mech warrior body and Reinheartd hammer.
I'm loving these new models. Even the filthy ateks look good. But I'm also glad that I'm no inclination to build a TAK army. I get to games by carrying 2 boxes, 1 that carries the S2 models and the other that has some dice and stuff in it. Sometimes I'll need to put a TAG in the second box or in the cupholder of my car. Trying to transport that TAK fatty would require some rethinks on my transportation strategy that I'm totally unwilling to do XD Honestly. I look at that and I very strongly suspect its heavier than my squalo. Hopefully it's just the perspective of the video that makes it seem like that... LOVE the Dakini. Love the Yadu. Ambivalent about same as before Deva. That Naga I barely glimpsed but it seemed great looking. Especially with the hair. Great detail. That being said, Dakini aside I have a small tinge of disappointment. This stems from Tunguska setting my expectations high in terms of how creative CB was going to be with their hi-tech designs. So far OSS seems like the Aleph with know with some sexy-ass, Mass Effect-ish Dakini. But I guess thats supposed to be the pinacle of human sphere technology? Everything is packed neatly into a human size and shaped body? Oh well, lets see what the rules look like!
The hammer is the weakest thing about the Ratnik. Really not sure why it's there. I am super curious about that gun it''s holding. The blackjack was already pushing the absolute edge of S5 and this thing looks even bigger than that. Much as with that design I hope it would be a TAG [no clue how that thing can go prone] odds are the masses are right and it'll be HI. I'm expecting a profile very similar to the blackjack. Though likely with enhanced ARM 6-7 maybe it'll have 2 wounds before battle ravenged I was hoping for a new medium infantry, but on closer inspection that is really looking like a tank hunter with AP rifle. [I'm still hoping we'll see them do a scots guard and have half options that can link and half options that do camo] The new design for Ariadnan AP rifles looks excellent. Line and Vet Kazaks look great. Not sure when I'm gonna use the scout with boarding shotgun. But I'm definitely gonna convert one to have an ojotnik. no surprises that the wardriver was the exclusive. That has felt telegraphed for so long.
I will call shenanigans if Lardo is able to dodge without a penalty. Also, I'm trying to imagine it going prone and the imagery is hilarious. BRB, going to youtube "fat man falling over".
He doesn't dodge, he just raises his Reinhart shield up and readies his oversized rocket hammer. Or if no shield is available just holds the hammer in front of the cockpit
That kinda drum mag has become a pretty common staple of boarding shotguns, although the scout still has an old one so I don't think it's just that, maybe a T2 or Heavy shotgun? FYI, we saw essentially this design over a year ago on the Minutemen, it's just been refined a little since then.
They just added a suppressor to the end. I'm also glad they are moving away from giving the girls tiny versions of the mens guns. As the minute men did. The Heavy shotgun is just a bigger version of the boarding shotgun. *points to the devil dog* A heavy shotgun would be a good weapon for you to be aggressive with though. Missiles to close in, heavy shotgun once in point blank. hoping it at least as one option for a gun that can go into suppressive fire.
I'm totally fine with this. "I have been called, I must answer. Always." I'm hoping it's a Heavy Shotgun. Will give me a reason to go balls to the wall towards the enemy. Especially when coordinated with a Dog Warrior.
So is the assumption that we don't get new profiles until street release date for the box? Ala Tunguska?
I'd expect some if not all the profiles to be spoiled by the BoW videos next week, and added to Army around Gencon,if not before.
Well, we got to see the Heckler profiles ahead of the full release, so I'd expect one or two sneak peeks like that. I kinda think one of these things is not like the others, but I can't quite put my finger on it...
I don't know about the hammer, socialist magic? It wasn't bigger actually, i think its the same size but that missile pod make them look bigger than they actually are, hoping it was separated from the arm... As for prone... Easy peasy
Everything looks sweet, except the Ratniks hammer. I will wait to see it in person and possibly clip that off. I adore those new Dakini, and the Yadu.
