    What I'd like to see:

    BS 13
    Marksmanship or X-Visor, Multiterrain

    Combi Rifle+Nanopulser (Lt.)
    Combi Rifle+Nanopulser (CoC)
    Combi Rifle+Nanopulser (Infiltration and Stealth, non-linkable)

    I'd give him Limited Camo on the Infiltration profile.

    And maybe Mines instead of Nanopulser.

    And it'd play nicely into SAA theme of forward deployment and board control.

    Forward Deployment L2, Limited Camo, Minelayer, Sniffer. That would still be... What... >30 points? I'd pay that, as long as he can still link once revealed a la Bruant.

    Whatever we get is going to be a "Minor" buff.

    Maybe he'll get a nanopulser but I wouldnt expect a major re-work, especially not after bipandra.

    Keep in mind that we're likely not getting a resculpt, and that his sculpt has an Assault Pistol modeled.

    They are unlikely to remove it.

    But picking up a Nanopulser would be great in this case, as there are already Shotguns and no DTW.

    personally I think picking up a nano pulser would be almost Combi+LSG levels of redundant.

    Given he already has an assault pistol for the 0-8 range, has Wip14 and MSV1 meaning he rarely if ever needs a back up method of jobbing camo, especially when linked or Disc+BS to bait them out at the risk of B4 unopposed.

    Its just about the last thing I'd like to see on him.....

    You don't like DTWs in Fireteams with Sixth Sense?

    I find they are an excellent tool for managing the likes of Impersonators.

    I do, I just feel that of all the bonuses that id love to get, and given Raos profile already, that it would just be more self redundancy on self redundancy than anything.

    See if its something that minor Id prefer minelayer, or grenades something that adds extra options to the character rather than something that has significant overlap with what he already has

    Grenades would also be good.

    I'd argue that Minelayer would be more redundant.

    The guy running the ITS narrative stuff @HellLois has confirmed on Facebook that they are NOT gone for the rest of the season.

    They are also NOT getting profile changes or updates.

    There WILL be some kind of bonus added for them when they do come back, as part of the next "stage" of the Season 9 narrative.

    Sheesh, another chance to adress obvious balance issues goes down the drain...

    Is thus the moment when I can write:
    "Told you so!" ?

    What the hell could a "bonus" mean? an extra OBJ point in games? bonus SWC? I'm really having trouble of thinking what that could mean.

    HelLois compared the essence of the bonus to how "The Ironclad" rule (which gives all TAGs Fat1) was handled, so there's that.

    But what exactly that will be, I wonder myself.

    Neat, at first I thought it would be some type of command benefit, like inspiring leadership or advanced command, ect. But then I realized that two of them don't have LT options. I hope it's something neat.

    but it probably won't be.

    If good enough to take Andromeda out of the shelf => broken
    If not broken => irrelevant for Andromeda, possibly too for Voronin.

    I really can't see Voronin being useful in any situation. I have no idea what they were thinking with that profile, or Andromeda's for that matter. What possible bonus could they give these guys to make them halfway usable?
