UPDATED 4/3 Monkey Business, the Ape-ril speculation thread

Its the Dozer from the new Ariadna support pack, one of the Zuyongs from the IA starter, and one of the Dire Foes civilians.

 

These are some of the newer releases from the IA starter and the Ariadna Support pack. The one in the middle is from Dire foes 4.

That would just about check all my boxes. The Gecko thing is more of an "If I could wish for anything" thing. I just love the minis and wish I could use them more often

 

I'm right there with you. Those small changes would being Corregidor in line with the rest of the N3 Sectorials.

 

Geckos are pretty great right now though.

 

Just imagine a Boarding Shotgun Brigada, or a Hacker sprinting nearby.

 

Absolutely I would love that. I mean with Morans and Jaguar links you can protect TAGs really well in general, but a MB in the duo would be extremely welcome.

 

They also said at roughly the same time that Aleph wouldn't be in one, though that was for slightly different reasons.

 

I'm thinking that some merc might not count as new, like Star Co. and Ikari, because they were all made up of existing figures. That may be the case with one of them.

 

I still remain confident that Spiral will be the only NA2 in this book that is counted towards the 5 this year.

 

Sounds like we're in agreement haha. Got any good Moran proxies. Was gonna use my Yuan Yuan with rifle, but he's a little out of scale with the rest of my Corregidor.

 

joe scarface turner and laxshmee for aristeia ( and now foreign company) are great proxies

 

Again. Every release that has been counted as "a new Sectorial Release" since Druze came out has included a starter set for it. It is reasonable to assume that if there is not going to be a starter (Ramah alreading having theirs in RV) then they are not counting towards the 5.

 

I like Laxshmee, just gotta strap a Combi to her back.

 

Pretty sure videos talked about 5 new armies AND new NA2 stuff. I don’t think they’re mutually exclusive.

 

Looks like the preview videos are out early?

If that's the new Shasvastii look then I'm not fond of it for now. I might be very selective with what to get for my SEF. We'll have to wait and see.

 

So... in the end it seems this is not just an expansion featuring a few new sectorials but also a revisit to Paradiso Campaign and rework of Spec Ops rules.

New Merc units? One looks like a bandit but lacks the shoulder armor. Dahshat?

 

The one that "looks like a bandit" is Raoul Spector
