This might indicate that CB listened and actually the next N is Invincible Army so Yu Jing players aren't completely hopeless in the next campaign.
That'd be like releasing a Svalarheima Box to start the Varuna hype. Halqa are most likely Khanate. In the Penthesilea short story in HSN3, when she goes to Bourak to get her bike, a part of it is the report from a Halqa patrol about a bunch of dead Kum and missing bikes. That's Gaqbar Khanate territory and troops.
Did you know that different people are different sizes and have different body shapes? It can be subtle, but its a thing. :)
The next N is IA or I will eat my dogs food^^ SAKIEL BOX! Taqeul Blister! For May..... Keisotsu SWC Shang Ji Box Brawlers Box De Fersen and a Repack
In defense of the haramaki the domaru are absolute giants even within the new biggerer heavy infantry scale no?
The Domaru are not noticeably bigger than Sun Tze, Crane, Wu Ming or Zuyong. Daofei seems a little skinny compared to all these though. Don't have Shikami to compare.
IDK, I only bought the female Domaru because the males were just too meaty. And I will never cease to love my Haramaki. With their [carefully freehanded logos] flower print pants, graceful dance-like poses, and glistening red armor. They truly are the Super-Elite. I hope the Tanko at least have a ML option, although I haven't seen it on their dossier. I'm nearing my two year anniversary of having these Haramaki and am not looking forward to their imminent demise Evacuating some place. Anyways, I bought some special Secret Weapon minis bases for them, and with placing the femDomaru on normal bases the "scaling" issue was very much mitigated, and the Haramaki do look like modern models when painted up. As for speculating what May may behold, I would think Zoe+Pi-Well De Fersen Wardriver and an Oniwaban Repack would be in order, although I'm drawing blanks on what else could be included to bring the new stuff up to five. I'd hope for something like a Brawlers Box, or by the Emperor's guiding light the Shooting Star unit that had artwork leaked, but I'm not expecting another JSA release in a back to back month with the JSA starter. June at the earliest because it was released in April, not May's month. But my other speculation for May/June's Big N surprise: Campaign Rules and a release of all the missing Spec-Ops (that is to say CA, YJ, PanO, Tohaa, Aleph, and Nomads because Ariadna and JSA just got theirs). Possibly too optimistic? I'd grant that. It does now seem weird to have back to back "books" being released. Especially with another Big "N" surprise in November. But hey, could be an exciting year no need to be a drag. With the new Uprising Tournament Pack, perhaps we could see a general release of the Cube Jaeger in order. Also, did we get that "state of Yu Jing" article/statement that the Spanish side of the forums were promised?
They've got all week, and it unfortunately seems like they're using it. Bostria confirmed in the FAQ video that the worst fears were true so I don't care that much, but it would still be nice to have it written down in an easily accessible form on the website. I feel like it's still going to blindside a few more casual players who don't keep up to date on this stuff, and I'd rather that be done with an official news article than a sudden mass removal from the army builder.
Where did the rumour of Oniwaban/Shinobu repack come from? On face value it’s seems a strange release given the brand spanking new 3D modelled Oniwaban that just dropped.
Keisotsu SWC (pretty likely) De Fersen (seems likely since we already saw the render) Oniwaban+Shinobu Pack (since it was kinda leaked in the article on "other stuff for JSA") I hope for a Brawlers Box and ... since NA2 might get some love from CB and I saw him in the background of the Ikari-Artwork ... I soooo want a YuanYuan resculpt blister to fill out the ranks of my 3 Fat ones and/or to switch for my Bashi Bazouks that stand in as proxies from time to time when I want Non-Fat YuanYuans (propably won't be in May though tbh)
Although a Tanko box would be nice I believe that it will be a while before it arrives. Seeing as I will be busy painting the JSA Army box anyway I don't mind the wait. I do wish for a Keisotsu SWC-box though to round out the unit.
They're in scale with other N3 HI models (I'm pretty sure). They were delayed a month or two when they came out because they originally were massive, so were pushed back to bring the scale down.
4 more sectorials to be released this year as more than just "paper" (if they manage to keep their schedule), yet 3 "N"... Just buy Ghulam and use them as such, they are after all the same troop with a +3pts cost for the Mechanized Deployment, without some of the Ghulam profiles. The Blog post regarding how to expand the JSA box included, for a time, a "bundle" of Oniwaban + Shinobu (which was their price added together without any discount), at the same time that list lacked the Shikami.
