All, For ease, I have copied @Koni's March 24, 2022 Army Update for Haqqislam to this thread. HAQQISLAM HUSAM YASBIR: The “Light Shotgun” is now “Light Shotgun (+1B)” in both options. HASSASIN NADHIR: Added 2 new options: 29 points cost “Minelayer” & 31 points cost “Forward Observer”. KHAWARIJS: Modified movement from 4-4 to 6-2. Removed the following options: BS & Panzerfaust (29 points), Forward Observer & Mk12 (0,5 SWC|34 points) & Lieutenant with Rifle (28 points). New option added: “Lieutenant Forward Observer” for 29 points cost. NAMURR: CC increased from 20 to 21. BS increased from 12 to 13. BTS increased from 3 to 6. Wounds increased from 1 to 2. Removed the skills “Bioimmunity” & “No Wound Incapacitation”. Added the skill “CC Attack (+1B)”. The former “Rifle” option is now a “Breaker Rifle” and the points cost is increased from 36 to 39 points cost. Added a new option with “Tactical Awareness” for 41 points cost. HAKIMS: BS increased from 11 to 12. TARIK MANSURI: Removed the “Lieutenant” 53 points cost option. The other “Lieutenant” option is now modified to “Tactical Awareness” option with the same weaponry and 51 points cost. All in all, these are some great changes. Yasbir gets a role, another hidden minelayer, Khawarijs and Namurr are vastly improved, Hakims got better for free, and Tarik is an absolute unit. How does everyone feel about the changes?
Vanilla duos will be huge, especially for button-pushing missions. Asawira Spitfire + Rafiq looks like the #1 option. Mukhtar RF + Rafiq Asawira + Kaplan or Mukhtar doctor Asawira + Mukhtar hacker ...
That is insane!! I totally missed that. Aswira + Namurr will be a great, "That objective room is ours" option!! Edit: Namurr now has a very clear role and competes with the Asawira as a solid specialist. Gaining two wounds is massive with our wonderful doctors. Khawarijs can super jump and move more swiftly, which makes them more attractive. Hakims got a nice free buff and Yasbir has a purpose as a great trade piece. I am stoked!
