Nomads have very rare blind spots, that's true. You have more options to build all-rounder lists then other factions. Otherwise they are not so good in special things then other faction, e.g. Chamo Spam (Ariadna), MSV 2 Smoke (Yu Jing) etc. But the grass is always more green on the other side of the fence.
Wut? Just a couple of years ago Acontecimiento received a new Starter Box, I'd say it's a very bad move to retire them from the stores.
ironically maybe they actually had never existed as a sectorial, as their Lost characters inspirations for regulars hadn't in first place on the island
It is, but the starter might not be doing so well what with it being a ridiculously overinflated SWC box with very little desirable models for repeats.
FRRM and ECA are both still playable and valid, so there's that... still being able to use them doesn't exactly strike me as "lost"...
Correct the army list and profiles and sectorial are still there and available, Yu Jing lost the sectorial, miniatures are still in production for that sectorial.
Yu Jing lost the Sectorial, the Sectorial went to NA2 and product got resculpted and the Sectorial in question is becoming an army in its own right. NOT. THE. SAME. THING.
I read the first half of PS's post as referencing the French and Shock army, not JSA. In that light he is saying the same thing you are. Specifically that there is a huge difference between MRRF/SAA and the JSA Secession.
I don't really understand the outrage. A few models are going OOP, that's it. And it's not even like they're going away for good. They have mentioned these sectorials will get revisited down the line.
Yeah, because ASA won't have anything removed from the game. Chill out, people. We've got an early warning, if someone - like me - needs anything from the sectorial, he has the time to get it. Army gets a small tweak. Hell, we know we can convert models without them getting released next month
And following CB's new OOP policy get warned Qapu Kalqi will be the next once it comes the time to release Ramah Task Force.
