Launch model Playstation 3's can play Playstation 2 discs; Playstation 4's can't play either. He wasn't making fun, it was sympathy. Replacing a kid's PS3 with a PS4 is effectively taking away a bunch of their games.
I was sincerely hoping that all the effort in making those models and troops wouldn't be linked to the fate of an optinal alternative mode, and it would be an opportunity of providing fresh lifeblood to not only one sectorial at a time, like it is usual, but to a lot of them at the same time making everyone happy. Additionally, that would mean the financial success of those reinforcement boxes is also linked to the reception and popularity of this new game mode. Which I have to say I was quite hyped at first... but now I am taking a second look at it and I am starting to grow some serious concerns.
My apologies to @Mantisuk then! Sorry like i've said i'm to old to have either and didn't know that! lol
I wonder if a 300pt standard list is a fair matchup against a 350 Reinforcements list? Because my Spiral Corps do not look like they're going to have a good time with the new rules
Yeah, I'm pretty bummed those new NCA profiles are reinforcements only at this point. At 1st glance I was all in on that box, and I have all the bolts already. Might still get it, but its less likely. I bought McMurder to play Soldiers of Fortune when I fist started. Ive played him twice in 5 years, because nobody is that into S.o.F. Obviously our group needs to give the new mode a shot, but its not gained much interest throughout its slow presentation.
@Koni , Is the different pricing of the Korsan chain rifle profile (13 points) in QK versus the reinforcement Korsan (14 points) intentional? I do not see a difference in the unit.
I assume it's because of being able to get that many templates right on the midfield. It does make a difference for reinforcements fireteams. Despite vanilla Haqqislam having two Haris fireteam options for their reinforcements, the cheapest double haris you can get is the following, which as you can see, is above the available points. It's currently not possible to do a double Haris in reinforcements. ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 6 SEKBAN REINF. Heavy Rocket Launcher, Chain-colt(+1B) / Pistol, CC Weapon. (1.5 | 21) KORSAN REINF. Chain Rifle(+2B) / Heavy Pistol, Shock CC Weapon. (0 | 14) RAFIQ REMOTE REINF. Rifle, Light Shotgun, Flash Pulse / PARA CC Weapon(-3). (0 | 14) SEKBAN REINF. (Specialist Operative) AP Rifle, Light Shotgun / Pistol, CC Weapon. (0 | 24) KORSAN REINF. Chain Rifle(+2B) / Heavy Pistol, Shock CC Weapon. (0 | 14) HAFZA REINF. Rifle, Light Shotgun / Pistol, CC Weapon. (0 | 15) 1.5 SWC | 102 Points Open in Infinity Army Now if the reinforcement Korsans were only 13 points. You can actually get a double Haris in there.
On that note, vHaqq does have access to two haris teams for their reinforcements, but can't actually form two legal haris teams at 350 points right now, lol. There are a few other bugs I noticed - the standard Burtuk profile in QK has a strange HRL +1B profile for 27 points that doesn't cost any SWC. I'm assuming this is a mistake, and is meant to be a HFT +1B. I also noticed that the reinforcements Djanbazan AP Sniper has CC Attack (Shock), opposed to the standard Djan's BS Attack (Shock). I'm guessing the later is a mistake given how useless CC Attack (Shock) would be on the Djan. I do wish that there were some more diverse/interesting options for commlink. RN, it's just a tax, there isn't much decision making to be made with it. Outside of all that, I've managed to get a game in with the reinforcement rules and I'm positive about the rules themselves. I think they are fun, and deemphasize outright aggression. It's a cool moment when the Korean Gamer squad rocks up on you. My hope is that CB develops the profiles, rosters and especially the commlink options going forward. I'm a fan of the rules themselves, I just think the stuff around it needs more development.
Without testing, it is hard to tell. But I would definitely try it, I can see advantages and disadvantages for both.
Am I missing something on the vanilla haqqislam dual Haris ft? It's either you blow up the swc count ' at 3SWC instead of 2, or you are sitting 101/103 points on reinforcement?
No, because when you take a Commlink trooper, you must create a reinforcement group. First bullet point of the skill.
As a FRRM enjoyer, this is a nice update for sure! A question - was this Metro profile with 1 Use Camo, Infiltration and the grenade launcher always there? I only remember the Panzerfaust option. Probably a "me" problem, but would like to confirm.
N2 - Miranda Ashcroft Reinf. has both an E/Mitter and E/Mitter(+1) neither of which are correct if we compare with normal Miranda. Should be E/Mitter(+1B)
@Koni Not sure if a mistake or what, but Yu Jing have AVA 2 Haetae but they are 1.5 SWC each (=3 SWC). Reinforcements are limited to 2 SWC.
