Red Veil was two Vanilla starters. The Haqq side will one day be the Ramah starter. But so far they're both for Vanilla.
Does the Hsien fit in IA? I still don't like the idea of Zhanshi being in IA either, just from a lore point of view.
i'm sure it could have as 8 sectorial (as many sectorial as there are core faction) and it will be fine. JSA and Starco don't share any model and JSA/Druze only share a single model. Other faction become bloated with sectorial as the sectorial trooper are also in vanilla but there is no Vanilla NA2. IMO armies inside NA2 are like mini Vanilla armies, if we can pick an army between 8 vanilla army then it won't be too much trouble to pick an army between 10 low-model count NA2 army. NA2 doesn't necessarily have to be only mercs, they could include any other non-aligned forces. Although right now, i can't imagine a lot of demand for adding too many more unaligned forces.
Bloated screen, not "vanilla NA2". Or are they going to make a NA2.B? I feel it already overcrowded when I go to PanO or CA to check something or make a list... I can't imagine having double the entries. Not to mention, What would Aleph's third sectorial be?
Oh, I guess I mistaken YJ part with Haqq part))) So Ramah) NA2 bloat is no problem at all because thate is no such thing as "Vanilla NA2". Sectorials list could be scrolled to any extent.
It's not too far off being the White Banner starter. I'm hoping that we get a solid option for a HI-only list in the Invincible Army.
Erh? What? The fusiliers are the base troop of the PanOceanian Army. The Military Orders, while integrated in the Army's structure, are the militant part of the church, so we are not talking about replacement. If you meant the Order Sargeants, well, the simple solution is that MO is Space Marines, and the OS are the scouts :p I ninja'ed the response to that 2 minutes before you: I was talking about bloating the Army selection screen. It doesn't look like much in the computer, but the mobile version...
No, that's my point. The Invincible Army is meant to replace the Zhanshi and the Banner Armies, which is why I have an issue with the Zhanshi in IA from a lore point of view. A Mao Esquerda said its the same vein as Fusiliers in MO.
Not quite the same since it's the Hsien we're talking about. Hsien fits as well in IA as Kriza Borac would fit in Bakunin or a Veteran Kazak in Caledonia or Suryats in Shasvaasti. Elite unit from a part of the military that's specifically commanded by a separate institution. Hsien traces their power from the Emperor (it's a really really short trace) while Incincible Army from the People or Party. So the question of Zhanshi and Hsien are very different.
