    In the following list the O12 units where divided in three categories:

    1) O12 Units that have the Bureau Aegis on their shield.
    2) O12 Units that do not have the Bureau Aegis On their Shield.
    3) Borrowed Units form ALEPH & Merc Units.

    This functions as a guideline for some speculation exercise to look into future sectorials of the 012. Assuming that Bureau Aegis is going to be a sectorial (Who knows when...) while consciously aware that some shields overlap in their stiles (color scheme & design) one can start a conversation of what would could be a possible playstyle of this sectorials. I'm assuming that probably the basic REMS, the Yudbots and Warcors is something that will be, to a certain minimum, in all sectorials of the O12.
    Also there is this false certainty that, when the sectorials come, there will be new units and profiles that will be added to the Faction and Sectorials.

    Personally, the Aegis Sectorial strengths would be in Cheap Orders & a cheap Core, really good versatility (in numbers and Wildcards) in their REMs, the HI in some kind of Harris and good midfield presence. Weaknesses would be the lack of Smoke, no Paratroopers, No MSV 2 or 3 or MI units.
    Interesting Ideas:
    1) PEELER Copperbots in a Core with Kaapa Units.
    2) Harris of Beta Troopers with OKO Copperbots or an Omega Unit.

    For a second Sectorial,using the second Group of units of the O12 ,Im betting for the the Bureau Noir. The strengths of this Sectorial would be Plenty of Paratroopers, MSV, Smoke, many of the Mercs. For their Weaknesses first would be poor versatility of Specialists, mainly Forward Observers, Engineers and Doctors.Second, Low count of REMs (Thinking of AVA 1) Third, Aside from the Gamma (that may or may not get a Duo, nothing more) almost no units with more of 1 W or STR and low versatility of Lt, going here for a vibe of a "Glass Cannon" Faction.
    Interesting Ideas)
    1) Mixed Core of Varangian and Mercs (Hypolitta ,Authorized Bounty Hunters)
    2) Harris of Gangbusters with a new profile with Spitfire or a Lynx Harris with Dakinis.

    Well that is my call, obviously this is just speculations but a fun exercise to make. Trying to give this improbable sectorials some personality while not just going simply going for the best combos and easy rolls.
    So what is your take on all of this? I know that is too early to start talking about sectorials of the O12.
    What would you expect for a O12 sectorial in terms of Fireteams, strengths and Weaknesses?
    What about new profiles and units?

    Most of the time looking at unit logo styles also gives some information. For now we can see three groups:

    Blue/white/gold "police" units:

    Kappa
    Sirius
    Alpha
    Cyberghosts
    Lambda
    Gangbusters

    Blue/white/red "military"

    Lynx
    Delta
    Epsilon
    Beta
    Omega
    Gamma

    Black/white/green "support"

    Zeta
    all basic remotes

    No idea if/how it'll translate into actual sectorials; for example Kappas and Lambdas will probably end up in every sectorial (though it's possible that one will replace the latter with a Sophotect).

    I get this impression of future division as well - although the fluff on Betatroopers puts them in with the law enforcement division.

    True, and the "logo approach" isn't 100% proof, especially recently.
