    This is pretty much my take away. Evaders crowd out Wildcats, Sombras KHD with some friendly Morans is going to be fun. The new REMs are nuts. God help Mobile Brigada.

    Thanks mate!

    That Grenzer is awfully ugly and has a cringeworthy pose... that's what my converted ML Grrl has to say to the Grenzer:

    Evaders are hackable targets. Wildcats not (so much), that is, and I assume will still be, a big advantage for the Wildcats.

    This.

    When I started infinity I got an aleph and a nomads starter set.

    What appealed about aleph was the nwi rule making their troops super tough, like the terminator.

    The nwi+shock immunity in all other factions makes my devas seem super weak now.

    Now that we have it in Nomads (my main faction) too, I feel like I've lost my moral high ground on this.

    I kind of feel sorry for Aleph.

    I hoped that I was through with painting on my Corregidor ...

    The Evaders (so we get our first fake HI) look like they take the role of the Wildcats (which get more polyvalent but for a big price tag) and these are hopfuly Wildcards, otherwise they are too expansive for an MI.
    The even more expansive Sombras are another thing, with NWI the can tank a hit and wreak havoc if you want to pay the price.
    Corregidors technicans capture a Rudra and put nice things on it? Woha! I would like to see how my beloved Mobile Brigade fits into this all.

    Oh and I totaly love the Cheerkillas and the female ML Grenzer is sweet too!:heart_eyes:

    OH. MY. SCIENCE.

    The Evader is amazing. The basic Multi profile is incredible value. I personally love the AP Spitfire Engineer profile. That in a Haris with Jazz is going to end up doing so much work, I'm sure. Just have to figure out the third profile when the link options become available.

    The Sombras is... incredible. I don't understand how it's MI and not HI. Another profile that will see lots of lists.

    Now onto the bad... I really hope Mobile Brigada see a nice update, or they may get squeezed out of my lists, and I've been trying to make them work for a while (they actually do, in Alguacile links). And if Devas don't get shock immunity in N4 Aleph will have every right to complain. In fact, I'm worried I may not be touching my OSS much at all for the next ITS season. New CJC is just looking incredible.

    Oh, yea. Climbing Plus and 0-G as faction identity skills? Love it.

    What silhouette do the new REMs have?

    Spanish profile says 2 but English says 4...

    Well I'm happy to see the identity of Corregidor stay with Climbing+, 0-G and engineers. At first impression the new units seem very strong. I'll need to see the rest of the faction before I can see how they fit in.

    I could definitely see Mobile Brigada getting 6-2 movement and moving down to a little over 30-something points, if we use Code One as a guide.

    Only 14 more days!

    I'm not a Yu Jing player but somehow these new profiles make me feel bad for their HIs.

    Mobile Brigada need to bring something to this. Maybe 6-2, Terrain: Total, and a price decrease?

    EDIT: On that topic, what the hell are our TAGs supposed to contribute?

    The only Yu Jing HI we've seen in its entirety is the Su Jian, which is awesome.

    Sombra and Evader look brokenly op to me. Like, 24 pts for 2w(-ish) BS13 specialist? Don't mind if I do! RF Sombra looks tempting as well...

    Daamn, so many profiles at once. I totally did not see that coming.

    Awesome and also almost the same than it was in N3. The HI these profiles compare to would have to get a huge power boost to even be able to compete. Anyway we are fast approaching Mimetism (-3) NWI+SI fusiliers for 8 points, I'd say a couple of months, maybe that will be the new Bolt profile come November.

    Yeah, fair enough. I just look at the Zhencha and get a kneejerk reaction, but we gotta remember that comparing N4 profiles to N3 profiles is a fallacy.

    Aside from that Shock Immune + NWI galore, the new guys are ridiculously good. Kinda interested to see what they do with the Prowler since they seem to be very similar to Sombras, aside from the fact that Sombras got more button-pushing potential and are more flexible in general.

    I get the feeling that all those new supposed "homogenization" of units can be explained in-lore as literally the arms race all over the human sphere. They invented NWI so we mass-produce SMGs and Red Furies! They mass-produce shock ammo so we include Shock Immunity in our NWI units!

    But they are also in FOCO?

    Also Evaders are kinda like Wildcats, but good.

    I hope CJC Tags are worth repairing in N4 with all those Engineers!

    I don't like N4 but I kinda like the way it's going, similar to DOTA few years ago: if something is OP then make everything OP. Thing is, it seems as thogh they just want us to buy things :/ I just hope Prowlers get the same treatment (making things OP). Also, I hope Grenzerz don't just get BioVisors on every profile, that would be just lazy. Those Cheerkiller and she Grenzer look uninspired.
