    Here is a topic for the New Year releases (September, Orctober, November and December).


    2024 news in brief
    - Warcrow's impact on Infinity
    Corvus Belli has bought an annex building and doubled its production area, so there will be no impact on the level of Infinity releases. However, it would be coherent to think that the number of big Infinity releases (such as the two-army boxes) and Infinity commercial operations will fade a little to make free room for commercial operations for Warcrow. What's more, we know that there will always be a team dedicated to Infinity and another to Warcrow, so there shouldn't be any halt in support for the games.

    Wait, JSA is getting a new starter pack in addition to a new Operations Box? Wow!

    No it's the reinforcement pack, I still had it in my head that someone said it would probably be the pack that would serve as the starter for one of the JSA sectorials.

    There's also a good chance that the old N3 & N4 books will go OOP at some point, so take advantage of the Black Fiday if you don't have them.

    There is room for more Winter-Orcs as they look quite nice - but in general, we have enough flavors of Orc, don´t you think?


    PS: JSA full sectorial is a good move, the RF pack looks super good!

    Here's the updated new release list. PanO still with nothing, but we now know they are a part of the two player set with JSA coming out. I'm guessing that's going to have up to 7 new figures for PanO.

    NOTE: Should I count Maximus as a release for PanO?

    2024 Figure Release up to August 2024
    O-12: 5 Releases, 20 Figures (Torchlight Brigade, Gladius Team, Nightshade, Wreaker, TB Expansion Alpha)
    Aleph: 6 Release, 17 Figures (Myrmidons, REF Pack, Regular release Maximus, Atalanta, Sophotech Support pack, Ajax)
    Haqqislam: 4 Releases, 11 Figures (REF Pack Alpha, Azra’il, Hassasin pack Alpha, Mukhtar RF)
    Ariadna: 4 Releases 9 Figures (Cateran, REF Pack Alpha, Jacques Bruant, Ratnik)
    Nomads: 4 Releases, 7 Figures (Lizard, Zeros, Daemonist Observant, Moran Maasai)
    JSA: 2 Release, 7 Figures (Mechazoid, REF Pack)
    NA2: 3 Releases, 3 Figures, (Digger, Liberto, Samsa)
    Yu Jing: 2 Release, 3 Figure (Guilang Hacker, Yaoxie remotes)
    Combined Army: 2 Release, 2 Figures (regular release Caskuda, Anathematic)
    PanO: 2 Release, 2 Figures (Regular release Maximus, Tikbalang)
    Special (All Factions except CA & Tohaa): 1 Release, 1 Figure (Warcore)
    Special: Dire Foes 14, 1 Nomad, 1 O-12, 1 HVT

    Edited to add Maximus to PanO and Tikbalang.

    Looking at the Chonky-ness of the new Ratnik, I wonder if it will be reclassified as S6? I would love if Bostria was right about calling it a TAG.

    I would say yes, technically his box says Aleph, but he is a PanOceanian Citizen and PanO players were far more happy than Aleph players having him.

    Yes. Playable in Neo Terra, Varuna and Vanilla - isn´t he lorewise from Pano?

    He's in Aleph, SSS, Varuna, and NCA. I'll ad him so PanO has one.

    And SWF.
    He is playable in Generic PanO, SWF, Varuna and NCA, like Dart he is first and foremost a PanO character and unit.

    My wishlist for N5: Make new sculpts look more often like their artwork and less often like straight copies from each other.

    [​IMG]

    Just imagine how cool and unique those sculpts would have been if they had simply modeled them 1:1 after the artwork... CB, I don't get it.

    It takes way more effort to make a new in pose, ensure there's no of clipping issue, and figure out the best way to cut it up and cast it.

    It's why they've been reusing the same few pose over and over.

    I didn't say they had no reason to do it that way. I just wish it were different.

    sometimes, despite popular belief 2D artwork and 3D sculpts do not translate well.

    Maybe. Doesn't mean you simply have to copy paste the poses that work.
