Has anyone else wondered that Yan Huo Invicibles have fire team special? I mean... HMC with burst 6 and BS17 active or Missile Launcher with burst 3 ARO due to mixed fire team sounds interesting.
Real talk, IA look cool, keen to see a completed picture and see them on the table. HMCB6 I'm curious if we'll ever see. I'm wondering if they'll bring the hated Support Group rule thing that Kurgats have.
In fact, I'm very concerned with the words on the emblem of the IA. The name Invincible Army comes from the real Ever Victorious Army(Interestingly, they were multinational forces that were created to suppress the Boxer Rebellion), then it should be a "常胜军(chángshèngjūn) ", Not a "无敌军(wúdígjūn)". Moreover, the word wúdígjūn is a name that feels very goofy in East Asian cultures. I can bet any Chinese or Japanese would feel very awkward about this name.
Well wanted to unsalt a bit here, but if you really want to consider Liu Xing a uterrly useless unit be my guest. Life of my lone Fusilier Lt and TankHunter Lt will be surely much easier ^^
Ariadna pays +2 pts for this +1 PH (compare Alguacile LM with LK LM) and no, there is no discount so far for a stat in one faction or another. There is old and new formula but apart from that, I haven't seen any of our forumal dissectors saying that PanO pays less for the same BS as Yu-Jing.
And guess what, I'm really fond of Liu Xing. Just in case. Check my threads.. and please, find some salt for Liu Xing. Really.
If I recall correctly, this is not the Ever Victorious Army, but a different entity from a reformation of the Ever Victorious Army, so the name should not be the same. How is it goofy?
Think I gotta agree with Zhencha being one of the worst profiles in the game - a massive investment into something that won't ever use its nwi due to a metric ton of mines and SMGs in midfield. 32 points in other factions get you a proper TO specialist, like Croc Man or Spektr, not this ariadna reject whose only bright spot is having climbing plus. Liu Xing looks great and going to spice things up with new season rules on combat jumps. Frankly I did not expect an HI-focused sectorial to ever be competetive or good, so I would just be happy with kickass models.
I was intending to actually say that Liu Xing isn't "that" expensive when you start comparing it to some similar (in stats) units. A lot of people seems not to remember that ARM3 BTS 3 is actually quite a expensive set of stats to have. That's all.
Why compare to the Crusader when the native Yu Jing Tiger already compares favourably to the Crusader? Well... for now at least. Don't know if they remake the Crusader somewhat with the MO polish.
Welcome to Yu Jing forum. We have thousands of reasons to cry over about anything, and the forum serves this with a best pride since HSN3.
If one nation's army call themselves ME SMASH ARMY, I bet the state's in serious peril of humor. Just Sayin'
Now imagine a stone faced Invincible veteran from the Commercial Conflict, rendered in stark black tones on white paper, with the right jaw clenching slightly stating his army being the "ME SMASH ARMY, victorious forces of the Commercial Conflict" and the only emotion being the stone cold hate in his eyes. The humour would be entirely outside the fourth frame :)
Because a 2nd wound on AD is a game changer as you can safetly land in front of enemy cheerleader and be sure to survive his pathetic pistol/combi shot and then go on on rampage ? I'm really surprised that people do not value that, as it changes a lot of in terms where you can "safely" deploy your AD. With (said Crusader) you really have to count that the enemy either miss his BS14/15/16 shot, or that you rely on your ARM3/BTS3 to succeed the roll, otherwise you just lost ~30 pts model and probably gave opponent an easy way to succeed with classifieds.
