I feel like Hekim might be in the sectoral starter, but the dossier was revealed early cause maybe its not too crazy or special of a unit? Just like a new dedicated akbar doctor for a faction with tons of doc+ already, so not too groundbreaking.
We do already have the sectorial starter from Red Veil, just like CA turned into Onyx. But maybe it will be part of a 300 point Ramah box?
But it's not on the table. Until a trooper's Hidden Deployment state is canceled, that trooper is considered not to be on the game table at all. Consequently, such a trooper does not affect allied LoF, is not affected by Template Weapons, etc.
They are deployed though, as per HD wording, so there's that... Not sure if you can really "specify" an unspecified trooper though.
Seems this was a discussion in the old rules of engagement forum, seems no real answer was reached: http://infinitytheforums.com/forum/topic/43211-servant-for-camo-markers/
Not quite what I wished for, but very practical nontheless. Get Tarik up a flank and where he falls you bring him in. Also, having waited for a new supportbox, finally paid off.
My last purchase was, unfortunately, the support box. I should have held off for just a little bit longer... But these profiles really look amazing. Drop in to heal up Tarik (especially if our Akbar theory is correct) and then pop into suppression on the SMG. That's some excellent board control for a, hopefully, reasonable price.
Yes. A friend of mine had given me some random-sci-fic floating robot things for my Nasmats awhile ago. I hadn't gotten around to getting the real sculpts, and felt little incentive to get them after. They remain illegal for ITS due to not being Corvus Belli models.
Thats to bad...maybe you find someone who prefers it though. Theres a lot of people out there, who prefer the old stuff specifically. Given that the will have AD I do not think, that Akbar is still possible...that would be to good imho. The thing is, which level of AD do they get. I hope its at least 2, because 1 is so unflexible. Not because you have to determine in the Deployment Phase where he will enter, but because everyone with level 1 has to enter in the same quadrant. So if you take a second one he can not come from the opposite side, because things went another way than you anticipated. Sure, you can have a Tuareg deployed on the other side, but you do not always find the points for that investment. Yeah, the point with dropping in suppression with a SMG is good. Can be quite a PITA close to the enemy deployment Zone. Depending on the terrain, you might find a spot, where you are not outranged, but cover an important aproach. One month (or two?) and few days left until we have the profiles and can use him.
The Voice of Pessimism: Carlos said like Tomcats. I hope the enthusiasm doesn't take people too far down a road.
