Most probably another unit, given the theme of KCF with a lot of colonial control and retaliation units, it will be interesting to see that they are.
I half expect new FKs to be TAGs, actually. Another possibility would be an SHI. And someone on discord suggested a vehicle.
Minescorp is one of the Group of 5 hypercorps in the setting. Not surprising that they have put themselves in the new colonial force. New colony means new resources to plunder extract. Also I expect more hypercorp agent rather than armed miners unless it's a more faction specific digger.
It is both strange and a little disappointing that the only units in KCF not in Vanilla are the Minescorp guys and the "Yamabushi" (don't know Japanese, but by positioning and logo design probably a JSA mercenary HI?). Given every other Sectorial is providing only about three units, a lot of stuff must have been cut to provide more of an excuse to Buy Our New Box. It's also not going to be great for Kestrel itself, given if links are both less powerful and available in Vanilla the KCF will offer very little over its Vanilla analogue with Helots and Cutter access. I'm quite curious about a potential rework of Bipandra though; that's a new icon for her. Oh, and Fusilier Quinn. Somehow the Most Boring Man in Infinity was considered a necessity in KCF.
Oh... what do we have here? Looks like some leaks! Auxbot with a big gun! Jackals look to be a nasty bunch at least when it comes to the lore.
It looks like finally it will be the robot which handles the weapon, and not otherwise hehe XD Let´s see if is worthy.
I wonder if the new Jackals means that the "scavenger" rule is back or they will have booty? Love the new lore.
With the loss of the Auxilias and Guarda de Assalto it seemed that PanO's Auxbot identity was coming to an end... it's nice to see that this is not the case and they have decided to give it a twist. This solves something that seemed sad to me with the disappearance of the Dragoes... PanO couldn't lose one of its original weapons.
I think that finally we can understand PanO were never written as the "Good Guys" of the setting and when I said look at the Ateks finally you understand what been an Atek really means. Otherwise yes, Auxbots with HRMC!
I wonder how they are going to balance the model :E But damn, among all thing I surely did not expect auxbot with HRMC.....
