I'm kind of meh on the idea of a vs. mode. I'm more interested in an expansion that lets the players play as Combined Army vs. the Human Sphere.
Looks like the Haqq reinforcements are mostly the contents of Red Veil & Beyond, which is nice for me as I already have them!
I was going to write pretty much the same. Jaan will be an interesting model to paint, but Valerya feels a bit off. Not sure why she holds the pistol high when not in a shooting stance..
They all look great! I'm hoping we get some new rules for Valerya. I use her in Dahshat. She's pretty mediocre but one of the few choices for hacker.
I feel the same. The miniatures from this expansion are a bit underwhelming apart from kiuutan and that's the only mini I'm getting out of this box.
That feeling when there could have been a magnificent santiago in this expansion, combined with a tohaa boarding teams character. But there isnt :(
I'm really interested to see Hawkwood's profile, an explosives specialist with a MMR and potential leadership skills?
While a Rasail and their Chaksa buddy would be a perfect fit for Defiance, I'm just happy Tohaa got a little love out of this game. Now I want a profile for Jaan Staar!
Well, Jaan, Kendrat and Hawkwood look great, Valerya more ... cute. Although she will grow on me. But hey ... a hacker in a non-hacking-pose, that's something new as well ...
One nice thing of Defiance is that with a total of 16 heroes (at least, maybe there are more waiting to be unlocked), when the game is completely released we will be able to take a look at their stats and easly come out with new customized heroes. When it comes to house-ruling, no one will stop you from making a cool but not overpowered Rasail+Chaksa hero that takes two player slots and use him in your own missions.
Hawkwood looks pretty cool with that fancy Red Fury. Where'd he fit in lore-wise? Dashat? Also: JSA Expansion contains the limited Ninja KHD. That's a great deal, considering how expensive this lady is right now.
