Having a HD missile launcher is great for the faction, however I'd rather see these kind of shenanigans out of the game. Noctifer ML are awful. Disappointed with the changes to crits. Seems really unimaginative, but I get it. I sincerely hope Blue Wolf is a transformer TAG. It's supposed to be able to go one on one with the Jotum so it'll be interesting to see what they come up with. I hope it'll stand out from the Guijia and be unique somehow.
Invest in smoke and sensors, learn to count points and SWC. Shellgames and mindfucks, and learning how to deal with them are what give Infinity its depth.
The Hundun getting access to a ML is still pure wishlisting speculation from some users here so let's drop that issue. By the way, the new Dire Foe is another character for Imperial Service only. And after video I think we know what's new YuJing's specialty: being everyone's hoe. Ninjas, Shaolin monks, everything asian exotic grabs people's attention, right? so that's new CB selling strategy: let's make asian cool units mercenaries available for everyone. because that's what the Liang Kai is, another fcking mercenary that can be played in YJ, PanO and O12!!! Fuck you CB!
Bostria wasn't entirely clear on that matter, all he said was that Kunai are available to both WinterFor and White banner. Presumably, much like the monk, Kunai is a limited mercenary that JSA (and nearly all other sectorials except the previously mentioned two) can't choose.
A more rational explanation is that the merc code 1 stuff is cross faction because they want both players to be able to use it. As opposed to here's a Yuan Yuan neither of you can use. On the topic of Liang Kai and the statue he's standing on, might be some relation to this guy. Maybe as a recreation he's had a crisis of faith in god and himself as a construct leading to the pose and wandering nature. Also smart money says the Zhanying Dire Foes guy is related to the new manga.
Listening to the interview it definitely sounds as the sniper ninja will be gone from JSA, NA2 & Yu Jing in N4. Not really liking that answer as it makes the Kunai Solutions ninja like the tac bow ninja from Red Veil. Something you "need" to buy a box of minis you won't use in order to get the one you want. Yes I'm aware that most people might not really use the sniper ninja but I do because Rule of Cool > efficiancy :) Guess I'll just proxy my current one as a kunai one then.
With absolutely no tongue in cheek nothing changes with the profile dropping from JSA because that's already the case. Just do what Haqqislam do with their garbage sniper model, trim it down into the good rifle profile.
I feel it's easier said than done to get your sensor bot to the other side other side of the board and guess where a noctifer might be hiding
I don't find that it makes any sense for Kunai to be available to WinterFor unless it is also available to more armies, so I wouldn't take the omission to be confirmation one way or another. I would rather expect them to be a bit of a Libertos where all human vanilla factions have access to them, plus specifically the OP:KS sectorials. We shall see, however.
You missed the point of it doesn't change anything. If you were already using the shitty sniper for rule of cool nothing is going to stop you from doing after the change either. That's what Chaiyi are for. If the Noctifier pops out to take it down, mission accomplished. Noctifiers don't want to pop for cheap shit, which is one of the reasons Yu Jing is very resilient against them. Copious amounts of cheap smoke means it's easy to get coverage blocked because they won't pop to contest it.
Then just trigger it with any solo unit doing objectives/hunting order pool before gunning Nocti with a linked B5 gun or Rui Shi
Around here Chaiyi gets taken out by a Q-Drone or a Nox before it can stick a sniffer down - or it gets flash pulsed before that. But around here you also typically know there will be one or two Noctifiers, can guess where they are hidden based on deployment zones seldom offering good vantage points more than in one or two locations, and plan movement with Fireteams extra carefully
From CB C1 site https://infinitytheuniverse.com/games/codeone Looks like we're up for TAG pack (Blue wolf), New Yaos (REM pack), a new hero (Hero pack)!
There are generally other things on the table that will lay waste to anything with a sensor/sniffer before they would even get close, plus the orders you would spend to even attempt it. Doesn't make it feasible IMO. Like Mahtamori suggests. An experienced player wouldn't reveal his Noctifer for an 8 point bot guessing where he is. They let them waste the orders, even if he gets revealed.
