Does anyone think N4 Guard is a good idea?

    I'd say keep NWI but lose shock immune. Still sturdy and threatening, but there are more counterplay options and she would be a bit more brittle. I think the game needs less NWI+SI on the really light units.

    Nah, it still creates horrible option select kinds of situations with units like Voronin.

    Unfortunately it seems whoever at CB created Andromeda as their RPG character disagrees.

    That seems to be against the design goals of N4, given the proliferation of Immunity (Shock).

    It's weird because andromeda was meme level crap when she first came put, had a few tweaks and was still a bit meh for the most part and then just went batshit crazy powerful this edition. Guard is definitely a culprit but the playtesting this edition has been a bit circumspect in places. Hopefully there'll be a balance pass at some point and some tweaks made

    There won't be a balance pass unless people make themselves heard, I don't think.

    I'm hoping there's stuff in the works to come with whatever release brings the fireteam changes out. It feels like CB has been pretty distracted with tag raid, hopefully n4 and aristiea start seeing a bit of love once that's launched and sorted

    Implying they don't just announce another board game.
