I'm curious as to why apsaras are ava 2. Damn shame we have to wait until November to get clarity on these. Interested to see what the new unit is as well!
OS will get rules in November? O_o Weren't they supposed to get rules in Summer and November is the time for Varuna.
I keep hearing November and am keeping it as that in my head so I can't be disappointed, putting my Tohaa experience to use.
"Arjuna unit" - That's a bit of news right? I'm not sure I heard that name before. Also, Yadu as core...
"Arjuna (Sanskrit: Meaning "bright," "shining," or "silver") is one of the major characters and heroes of the famous Hindu epic, the Mahabharata. The third of the five Pandava brothers,Arjuna was a master archer who played a pivotal role in the conflict between the Pandavas and their adversaries, the Kauravas" Sounds like a marksman of some sort.
Arjuna is the name of a demigod in Indian myth, said to be the greatest archer in the world. Just as an FYI. Maybe its a marksman unit of some kind edit: ninja'd lol
Assuming he is a marksman it makes it pretty unlikely we see smoke in OS, unless the Rudras does indeed have a smoke launcher. Makes the Asura an extremely hard sell, and the Marut unlikely aswell.
So Dart is a super Archer. Arjuna is an archer. Maybe we get mini-Darts and fill the midfield with camo-bows.
Sophotects and Samekh in special fireteam... Sforza? I'm liking what I see so far 4 yudbots....hehehe
I wonder wtf Andromeda is there instead of Atalanta, besides the obvious reason of trying to push sales for a useless profile. Nice way to waste a slot that could have been used for a decent unit. Also, what's with the REM's AVA being actually reduced? We were gonna buy the Rudras anyway, CB (which I suppose will come in a box of 2, giving you 3 Rudras if you get the Beyond box, on an AVA 2 unit...)
Yeah, bit of a shame, especially considering that in the fluff Atlanta helps out on all these black-op missions. I can see why they didn't include her though from a balancing perspective - that way, the only MSV units are the v expensive Maruts and Asuras. Not saying Atlanta at 39 points is cheap, but this is Aleph - everything's relative. Andromeda is just one of those unfortunate flavour profiles that don't really get used. Glad that Post-humans are only AVA 1. Also liking the AVA 4 Helper bots. Rip minefields.
