Honestly I meet so much shock NWI without shock immunity may as well not exist, especially hunting in the midfield like Arslan wants to be.
Wishlisting in the most impossible way, i'd like to see "specialist" options in DST like the order sergeants ones, druze mimetism-infiltration-minelayer-boarding shotgun (and for cherry specialist operative) or an non-linkable auxbot one XD ahahah... yes in DBS the druze entries should be around twenty :P i'm also in for some "brains" for arslan and the al-fasid (because is beautiful and the only one haqq hi that would look decent in druze colours). No pano troops, however, because we're smuggling pano tech, not working with them
I agree about PanO. I'd rather they have their own things. If anything, i'd rather they have some Spiral allies that help them in small number. Taagma, Krigel, and Kiutan, all seem like they would work with the Druze, ikari, or Dahshat. I would not say no to a Clipsos!
Today I thought about easy and elegant solution to make Druze more playable and their links more resilient in Bayram - give them all Number 2. It would help the sectorial also. And definitely some profile with NCO or some cheap Chain of Command (with SMG instead of combi?) would be also nice. PozdRawiam / Greetings
Yeah, I expect a extensive rework in n4 giving the latest shiny toys (nco and the rest of "command skills") to all the factions. There are many "professionals" that are no professional at all, at the moment (and i'm looking also at wildcats, cjc is my other faction) [obviously wishlisting]
A low-tech Druze "HI" that would basically be like a heavy Druze trooper would be pretty cool, assuming CB were willing to make a model. Build it to be a bulkier, NWI+Shock Immune Druze with 3 or 4 ARM and a close range shooting loadout for extreme door kicking. Let it join Druze fireteams, and call it a day.
And so we are finally here. Admitting there is no purpose in wishlisting at all for our dear DBS. And that the world is a meaningless place. So life. So all. So me. So you.
Well if you want HI, just don't play Druze. Meaning, with Druze you have the potential to play Ikari (Wu Ming and Tanko, Karakuri) or QK (Jannisaries, Mobile Brigada). By the time you take those heavies its not like you will have points for those Druze specific things. But you can also gain Yuan Yuan, Ghulam (doctor), regular Ninjas, etc. Ikari Druze ────────────────────────────────────────────────── GROUP 1 8 2 3 DRUZE (X Visor) Combi Rifle, Chain-colt, Panzerfaust / Viral Pistol, Knife.

I know you're joking somewhat, but it's not a bad point. I'd like to see Druze in roles that go beyond that of the shocktrooper profile.
A tool-boxy HI like an Al Fasid would be cool and probably fluffy! I think in a DBS link, there'd be ample room to make a cool linkable option. If not, then I say no HI needed. The other idea I've really liked is a new generic TAG. What about the little ones from Nomads even? Geckos? Might be a cool linking opportunity there as well. Finally, if we got 4 yuan yuan I would die of bliss. I know I can do it in Ikari or whatever, and therefore I know this will never happen. But I can dream!
-remember, if you put yuan yuan, it would look very ikari company but they need a option of paratroppers , one option although it would break the background is the akalis with AVA 2. -the al fasid is a good option, but if a choose al fasid or geckos ? my favorite is the geckos the reason is give a chance to buy the box of geckos a other players outside of corregidor. -Against the background of outlaws that have this army, I would like other tunguska units such as spektr or other army such as hardcases, in the section of camouflage.
I think @Space Ranger hit right on why DBS will probably never see any updates... It was clear from a question I asked, and Bostria answered in the Rumble video seminar in 2018, that they see Ikari and QK as the alternative ways to play Druze.
