    Hmm. Interesting.
    It implies a repack, I guess. Perhaps into those 3-model booster packs for C1. Maybe with new sculpts.

    All these models do have a place in the C1 lists of both of the currently released Aleph and Haqq C1. And I'm not sure about the Aleph ones, but the Haqq are the only currently available models for these troops (Ayyar w/ Marksman Rifle fell out with the 6-model 2nd gen. Hassassin Bahram starter, and Hunzakuts - respectively Sniper Rifle and Deployable Repeater - were parts of the 2ed and 1ed vanilla Haqq 6-model starters...).

    I just wonder what the 3rd Haqq model would be in that case. A Hortlak...? They have been scheduled for discontinuation recently, haven't they...?

    Either a Hortlak, a Ragik from the discontinued blister, an Al-fasid, or an Asawira, counting the models still missing from C1. Given that the Asawira and Al-fasid aren't OOP yet, my bet is either on a Ragik or the Hortlak. Ragik would be nicer because then the pack would have at least two HB models. The nicest would have been of course to pack the Ragik, the Ayyar, and the Asawira, to have at least one pure HB booster, but apparently that would have been too friendly towards HB players.

    I really don't want to be mean, but didn't you read any of the above? They're not going away, they're being repacked into the Haqqislam Booster Pack Alpha for Code 1.

    I thought they were "last chance to buy" and "maybe back with new sculpts"?
    The repack seems to be just guess work - or has it been confirmed by CB?

    Gosh. As a Haqqislam player I find my Code One addition to be very uninspiring if true.

    Not confirmed, but a clear pattern from the last 3 times this happened.

    Since I was the one throwing down the "possible repack" bit, I guess I should point out: yes, it is just guesswork by me.
    Seems plausible, seems kinda logical, but no hard confirmation (or denial) from CB here.

    No, no evidence. Just a whisper. I hear it in my Ghost.

    All Code One Support Packs, Remote Packs, and Booster Packs have been repacks of existing minis, except for when there weren't any official releases yet (O12, CA), or if minis were pre CAD era and therefore needed a resculpt (some of the REMs, Shasvastii, and old Support Packs).

    Since the units still missing from the Aleph and Haqq C1 rosters are mostly all up to date, and coincidentally the same minis for the same missing units are going OOP the same month the Booster Packs are supposed to come out, and since this has been done the same way for the last three years, I think this is more than just a guess.
