Just a WARNING! Remember how many times they show a preview like this and something is different when it actually comes out. Ie, Bixie's MSV2.
In fact, it is labeled as Mechanized Troop in the upper right corner... ...you know, the TAG category. Those which are not REM themselves, but a bunch of those are Remote Presence. Like the Zeta or Marut.
A part of me wishes that CB will release a few other profiles in O-12 only to reveal new sectorial in 2023, the other part wishes that the roadbot will be in starmada.
Take this with caution, but the annoucement of Roadbot stated it was available in o12 and Starmada. Also, with Starmada being the (literal) Space Police, it would be unfortunate to not have the Police-Bot-Patroller!
Sadly it seems that the RoadBot will not be available in January. Too bad, I planned to play it in a tournament in February. It will be my first tournament with O-12, and teh Roadbot seems to be areally usefull specialist.
Well, I am officially jealous of this thing. Looking forward to seeing ZondMate vs. RoadBot battles on the tarmac soon! EDIT: In a 15-troop limit setting, I think sync troops are incredibly powerful: Ablative wounds and attacks that don't affect your order count, usually for few points and which move up on something else's orders anyways. Had an ASA list with some seriously nasty flamerbot presence. I'm beginning to think 2x Lawkeepers with 2x sidebots each and a pair of these RoadBots with their Roadracerbots could be a pretty amazing ~140 points. Offense or defense, that's a LOT of templates. If the sidebot is only on the one SMG profile though... hard call. The Marksman rifle for one of these, SMG/Medic with sidebot on the other, probably.
I’m really hoping starmada can at least put these in duos (similar to the lawkeeper and oko), but my real hope is for a new haris with lawkeepers, oko and this guy.
Damn, that left some amazingly deep scars in the so called hyperpower. Remember to cancel all your preorders, cause u dont buy the modell cause its good looking, but because the stats. The W40K way of enjoying new releases. :-D
I was hoping it would be similar to Bixie and Fiddler where the profile was on the army builder long before the models were released. I understand this may not always be the case but there was nothing wrong with asking.
Bixie and Fiddler were ITS prizes. When their tournamen package was available (at season launch, maybe), the profile was added. RoadBot are still not on the shelves.
If I purchased models because of stats instead of A E S T H E T I C S then I would not have 4 Bronzes in the painting queue ready to look AWESOME... ... although I am afraid they would collect dust in the shelve nevertheless
I had a fortunate game with a Bronze a while ago against Svalarheima in a 200pts game of frontline. I took the Red Fury with 2 Nyokas and it was really funny to see the Karhu feuerbach turned into a water pistol.
