    I think Carlos Mention in all his videos that stuff was subject to change? Atleast in the youtube Infinity week at onTableTop.

    And yet, it's not what we call "a slight variation". Words have a meaning.

    I wouldn't be surprised if Team A in Onyx is misunderstanding, because of tone of AI voice and bad choice of words and they never were meant to be in Onyx. But only CB know the truth. Also I wasn't surprised they aren't in Onyx, because Patroclus profile hinted it.

    Nope, it was clearly said in a video by Bostria.

    Which video you mean? I only heard it in this video and here it can be interpreted both ways.

    Dunno, I think it was in a video of Bostria being invited somewhere to talk about N5.

    EDIT: but the video above is quite clear already. Except if very poor phrasing.

    I think it was Bostria in a studio before the On Table Top week.

    Aleph lost its Posterboy and some of his friends to a faction that have no need of them (they have female Achilles at home) due to some crazy and not even thrilling "story" twist with Pandora, who only seems to appear to be replaced with her former male ego now to make some thrilling fluff that nobody likes sinced the Uprising.

    Aleph got: K-Fillers in SP and a vegan vagabound to help them out in case OSS needs a single shot ARO sniper with visor? OSS the 2nd MSV3 faction has to fill a would be gap with an alien? Do they roll dices to decide which merc go where?

    Just a side note: TLB the big ultra blue newcomers start with an AVA slot of 1 for a lim.ed. blister ABH .. which is now, some month after its release vanished from their rooster.

    WB lost MI Adil that came at the launch of WB in the DF box. Now it looks like there is only HI Adil. Infinty miniatures now capped at 4 years liefspan? Only the new survive? We made two different profiles to support our comic but now we have a feeling, that its too much? What about releasing just a new profile of a not even released character in TLB - good idea, we make two profiles! Paint them both and guess which one goes the way of the dodo in a couple of years :-) Taking care of your customers is goal #1 or ...?

    Not to mention that some lim.ed. Defiance releases - Boarding Female Achilles and Kendrat are proxys now and Hawkwoods Red Fury from the lim. ed. miniature (KS exclusive!) is not wysiwig anymore.

    What a nice clean up ... :slightly_frowning_face:

    As we say in the Military, "I'll believe it when I see it."

    You also say in the military "Hurry up and wait." Which is the current state with N5 release. So it checks for a war game.

    On the other hand, the obvious will to publish prior to Christmas is here and we've seen all the rosters, so I consider a Monday release almost certain.

    Yes, that is true. This applies to us as customers. We are ready and waiting. Now for CB to do their end.

    They are moving in the right direction. I like the inclusion of more profiles. Upgrades to her arsenal are also welcome. But more than that, cheaper is better here. She even may make one of my lists. May. I promise nothing.

    Looks interesting. Not like something breathtaking, but could be used. Especially for their price.
    Of course I would like to see their lore. What is it? PanO, the wealthiest faction, decided, that would be better to buy cheap war material instead of making expensive drones?
    I am intrigued.

    for that points, i think i still prefer the Sepulchre. More ARM, more BTS, Warhorse, more range, surprise attack, more damage, NCO instead of Tac Awa... People on FB said she became an autoinclude, but i dont think so. Never used Mobility Joan, i always go for the OG one

    Maybe. I used Joan once or twice and found that in MO her Leadership is just not that good. At best you have Tech-Bee and WarCor. And now when Tech-Bee finally will be Regular, to pay for Leadership for one 3 point regular order?

    In general, in N4 I never found a place for her. She is nice, but she was really expencive for what she offered. At least regular Joan had a multi-rifle.

    Now, we shall see. AP Spitfire goes a long way to make her more threatening to hard targets.
