July 28th had an Army Update that brought some significant changes to the drummer profiles:https://infinityuniverse.com/blog/army-update-july Drummers Drummer with Drumbot_3: Cost increased from 38 → 40 points Drummer with Drumbot_4: Cost increased from 41 → 42 points Drummer with Drumbot_5: Gains Flash Pulse New Loadouts: Two Forward Observer options added (each carrying two Drumbots) Drumbot PH increased from 8 → 9 Drumbot_3: Gains Neurocinetics, cost increased from 24 → 26 points Drumbot_4: Upgrades Light Rocket Launcher → Heavy Rocket Launcher, cost increased from 24 → 25 points A BS 13, Mimetism-3 Burst 3, Feuerbach is a scary ARO, especially since it can get Marksmanship. You keep in between 32-48" and it can be a nightmare to dislodge. I also like that you can get an FO version with an extra specialist and drumbot: have an ARO piece, a cornerguard, and two specialists in a single slot. That is some peak PanO efficiency. Thoughts?
Those new ones with two bots are pretty wild. It's a "do everything group". two specialists, a medium range gun, and long range, a template, etc. It looks really good. I can't help but think it's a fix to a F-Up again. The guys who made decisions on what goes in the box and makes the figures, not looking at the rules and what would make a good set. It's still janky because there's no FO bot it it. Great if you have the old Auxbot figures though.
I feel this update is a test. If there is enough interest, they might provide a Box-accurate profile. It would be like 68 points for 3 models in one slot, but if it came to just 2 SWC, it would be ridiculous. I do hope there will be an Auxbot release soon though.
