    Carlos Belli, the eccentric fictional billionaire who secretly bankrolls Corvus Belli, has drunkenly broken into YOUR house and stolen YOUR lightbulbs. As the judges are not accepting bribes at the moment due to Covid, he has an offer to settle the matter out of court: CB will make an Action Pack for ANY current Sectorial other than Starmada, Kosmoflot, MO, or Corregidor, to YOUR specifications.

    Oh and he bought you some new lightbulbs but that was just a scene setting thing.

    There are some ground rules:
    -At least 3 of the same of one core troop unit
    --Ensure that the selected trooper has at least two non-SWC models still available
    -Keep it under 6 SWC even if you do add a +1SWC LT option
    -Must contain at least one viable LT
    -Must contain at least one S4 or S5 model if possible
    -Cannot contain a TAG
    -You can add new units, new options to existing units, or revamp a unit, but try not to change everything about the chosen sectorial
    -Assume you are taking any existing starter sets for the faction out of production to make this
    -If the starter is already OOP, don't worry about it taking anything else OOP, he stole a LOT of lightbulbs.

    My choice, however, would be to decline the offer and see him in court Bakunin, consisting of:
    -3 Moderators (2 Combi, 1 Grenade Launcher)
    -Sin Eater Sniper
    -Riot Grrl MULTI
    -Reverend Healer MULTI, and made Fireteam Wildcard
    -Taskmaster Heavy Shotgun, with Tactical Awareness
    -Zero Sniper
    -Reverend Custodier Killer Hacker with Spitfire, able to be a Lieutenant

    What about YOU? Er, you?

    Ah man, I'd just put in LED bulbs as well!

    - 3 Metros in tacticool hoodies, lady HMG with a Rosie the riveter headwrap, beardy dude with the hood up, and a lady with rifle slung and pistol aimed one handed

    - Beardscard with Heavy Rocket Launcher

    - Moeblob with AP Rifle and slung LSG

    - Ariadnan Foreign Legion, Regular Warband with smoke grenades, light Shotgun.

    - Para-Commando with Molotok (shut up, it's still a Molotok in my heart)

    - "Foreign Resourced Operational Group" using off-world technology they're an S2 1W+NWI hackable HI with very varied loadouts due to their high tech gear including MSV2, Mimetism -6 (not on same trooper), not available to Vanilla.

    - King Cobra custom Anaconda TAG with AP HMG, it's an S6 so totally actually fits in an action pack, I refuse to bow to your meaningless rules against TAGS, only Carlos Belli can judge me!

    Rifle Metro, Moeblob, and F.R.O.G are Lieutenant options. Preorder is sexy Jaques Bruant.

    If they don't have super jump baseline or combat jump that's just a waste of a great idea.

    One of them does, the others consider him a bit weird.

    They all have aquatic terrain though.

    Edit: If Sexy Bruant chooses not to start the game in camo he can instead deploy a smoke template centred on himself at the start of the first player's turn. This is to represent the terrible yellow cigarettes he habitually smokes.

    Alright, I'm in:

    - 3 Auxilia – well, actually two: One female with a combi deploying a repeater (like the Spectr maybe), one male pointing his pistol, one auxbot
    - 1 Hexa hacker with WIP14 and at least 3 BTS for a few points more
    - 1 MSR Bolt
    - 1 multi MR Aquila Guard
    - 1 updated ML Swiss Guard
    - 1 SMG Locust, but instead of ODD he's a Camouflage (1 Use) < 20pt skirmisher
    - 1 Uhlan, but now he's downgraded to an S5 HI, with an AP HMG and a heavy pistol, no camo, no feuerbach, but he's the first S5 drop troop and he's around 70 pts :P

    Preorder Mini: a new Bipandra on an AI monocycle that turns into "Col. Custer the Palbot" with G:Synchronized and a chain rifle (can still heal though).

    QK

    Hafza with rifle, lady pointing finger
    Hafza with rifle, dude aiming rifle edition
    Hafza with HRL
    Al'hawwa with shotgun
    A new Haqqislam Medium or Heavy Infantry for QK, which is like a deep space operations zero-G kind of geezer, kind of a Haqq'd up version of the Evader or Kosmosoldat. Actually maybe someone who has been silk modified to be able to survive in hard vacuum for a short period of time? That'd be way cool. Anyway armed with an AP Spitfire.
    Odalisque Killer Hacker
    Bashi Bozouk with Rifle and Light Shotgun
    Sekban with a Spitfire
    Jannissary with AP Rifle and Light Shotgun

    TBH there is not a huge amount I'd change about QK other than giving them a bit more KHD action, maybe slapping in a new unit type or too of native Haqq space dudes, that sort of thing. I think that they are not very exciting compared to modern Sectorals, so a refresh with some updated profiles and new minis would be sweet.

    Yes, but the question was after a „dreambox“
    and there are many profiles who don’t exist

    I was being a little facetious- as a non ariadna player, that list sounds pretty much like the minis I sold off from coldfront.

    My dream battle not totally ready box would be a frenzy themed Caledonian

    4x galwegians
    4x greys
    3x wulvers

    1x mormaer and wallace
    In all their different sculpts.

    Line infantry and more civilized stuff would be part of a second caledonian box, maybe more focused on SAS and other camo options

    Bit late to the party here but I would likely have something similar to the OP, however I'd bend the rules & go for vanilla Nomads.

    3 Moderators (2 combi, 1 grenade launcher)
    Securitate Sniper
    Sin Eater Sniper
    Riot Grrl Spitfire
    Grenzer Red Fury
    Taskmaster Heavy Shotgun
    2 Zeros (Combi, BSG)

    Only reason for vanilla (& really the whole set) is to include the Grenzer & Securitate as I find it so annoying that neither had a full 4 member SWC box released initially. Also I feel not having a RG Spitfire to match the sculpts in the current RG box is a little bizarre.

    Ok, I'm making the Tohaa re-release pack:

    Makaul (Heavy Flamethrower/Viral CCW)
    Makaul (Heavy Flamethrower/DA CCW)
    Makaul (Boarding Shotgun)
    (I know Makaul aren't technically the Tohaa line troops, but they functionally are, and CB can release some more Makaul profiles and stick them in a box later)
    Taquel Officer (Spitfire) - For the Lieutenant
    Sakiel (Viral Combi)
    Sukeul (HMG)
    Gao-Rael (Sniper)
    Gao-Tarsos (Spitfire)
    A new S4 Medium Infantry unit with 8-4 MOV, riding one of the Symbiobeasts from the Kerail pack, that functions as a Tohaa motorcycle.

    All new sculpts, stuff that's in vanilla Tohaa and not Spiral, multiple troops that haven't had minis released for the listed profiles, plus a fun new big trooper riding an alien dog, that will hopefully sell new players on the faction.

    Steel Phalanx:

    3 Myrmidons (chain rifle, universal proxy with CCW, Combi)
    Myrmidon Officer BSG
    Ajax
    Machaon
    Phoenix
    Agema Mk12
    Nesaie Alke Spitfire

    Preorder exclusive: Achilles mobility armor

    This would being some much needed resculpts, easy entry into SP for new players (all you really need is 2 Netrods, 2 Flashbots, Box of Thorakitai and you are ready to start out) and might be a hit amongst painters if they get Ajax right
