Hey guys. My friend not that long ago take a PanO half of Kaldstrom and now he now planing to buy some reinforcement. I'm CA player and don't now many about PanO and only can advise him Nisses and Beyond Kaldstrom. Important thing is also, that he also looking at MO and thinking to combine them with Svan in vanilla PanO. Especially he looking at Jean. ;) Can you advise sone for Svan sector and vanilla PanO combination of Svan and MO? Thanks.
If you can find it the millitary order 300pt box would give him a start at MO amd the hospitallier knights can be used in svar too. Cant go wrong with the remotes either usable in all the sectorials. New jotum coming out soon too. Fusilier special weapon pack and the support pack with trauma doc.and engineer would be my first buys next tho Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
I would highly advise to wait for N4 to drop. It is probably only one month out and we assume/hope some changes are coming to MO then. (And probably vanilla) I'd feel bad for advice coming from me to not be appropiate one month out.
This. We don't know yet what and how will change, and how will that affect fun factor. Another general advice I have is to stick to a sectorial at the beginning. It makes much, much easier to plan purchases, and the learning curve isn't really steeper than it is with vanilla - one needs to learn Fireteam rules, but 1) they're not that complicated, and probably will get easier to learn in N4, and 2) they need to be learned anyway, since opponents might field link teams. So, assuming that N4 PanO will be a cool place to be, and that your friend will want to stick to Svalarheima: PanO starter. It has more Fusiliers, ORC, and Nisse sniper, the only trooper not usable in SWF is the Akal, which can always act as a proxy. Fusilier box. Basic line troops fireteams are a staple, and won't go away anytime soon. It might go lower on the list, if we'll be able to put some other troops, like Nisse, in N4 Fusilier link team. Beyond Kaldstrom, obviously PanO Support Pack. Jokes about PanO specialists being shit are common, but largely without merit. Dronbot Remotes box. These will be just as - if not more so - useful. And together with Support Pack they can be used in any other sectorial your friend might like. Regarding MO it's hard to advise on anything beyond MO 300 pts box; we really don't know how the sectorial will look in N4, though I suspect it'll be good :P
Hello, about MO I will remain where others have said before me, not knowing exactly how N4 will bring to us is a little risky to give your friend some kind of advice. If I were him I will wait until N4 release. It isn't so much longer now. Maybe a new MO starter shows up like the Nomads Corregidor soon? If we think about, if CB wants to keep MO you still can buy (Neoterra we know not anymore) I don't see CB mataining much longer some old sculpts in MO. So, of it comes some kind of profiles rework or it comes new MO material. In both cases, better wait a little more. About "non MO" options, I'am agree with @Stiopa, but not in the order, I will put the Support Pack as second options, and as third the rems. But he has covert all the "shopping" more recomendable right now. Best regards!!
Starter, beyond, small drones, big drones, support is all you will ever need for li if you are okay with proxys. This set contains all base/silouhette sizes. For mo the 300pt will remain a nice looking pack and proxy-viabilty is strong. Knights can proxy all knights. Sergs will remain the backbone of mo. Mo will remain but see changes that might alter playstyle signficantly. Like bostria said sepu getting bigger silouhette (loadout change?), fatherknights getting replaced by koj? Joan spitfire, warcors, techbee are all you need to play joan proper thanks to inspiring leadership. But that is not a c1 rule and may get changed in n4. But those 3 models look epic enoguh that its not a loss. And cheaprr then the other 2 options.
