That goes to 11 minis though. Not a good number when one needs break up combat groups. Definitely a box I’d buy though.
Big boxes are usually 10 model ones, 11th goes to some tinbot, dismounted model or spec-op in case of JSA.
Then 4 Khawarij, 4 Zhayedan, Hakim and a Supersoldier. Makes 10 and 300 points is very doable with those models.
Nobody has seen UR so far. I am not sure I have ever heard a limit on Icestorm type boxes we have heard definitely limit on 300 point boxes, I am not sure we have heard limits on sectorial starter boxes.
Id just like to mention that Bostria has confirmed that Army Starter Boxes like JSA and USARF are CBs official way of introducing new Sectorials for all the main factions. I also remember him mentioning 2 player starters can also count but that 300pt Army Boxes wont be used to introduce new sectorials but will be cycled through for existing sectorials at the time. Pretty much once a new sectorial comes out, it could be fair game. However my best guess for who gets a 300pt box next is MO, Hospitallers, Joan, DeFersen, Black Friar, theyre all there.
Ramah is a bit weird for a big box since big boxes are a starter plus extras, but the starter is also in Red Veil (they confirmed every unit in the 'generic' starter is a Ramh unit, which means it's exceedingly unlikely there will be a Ramah starter), and a lot of people have that now. I honestly don't think Ramah will get a big box, since they already ate a lot of the target audiences sales with Red Veil..
After the first two (Onyx and Tohaa) they decided not to put starters in the 300 point boxes partly for the reasons you list
300pt boxes and army boxes are different, or so I've been told earlier in this thread. Army boxes are what they use to introduce new sectorials, not 300pt boxes.
We already have pic of this box so it's not a guess for this content. It is hospitalier box, sergeant order box, crusader brethen blister, joan blister, black friar blister (total 305 points if taken wysiwyg) : Military Orders ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 10 JOAN OF ARC Lieutenant MULTI Rifle, Nanopulser / Pistol, AP CCW.

I've not yet decided what my fourth army will be, but here my expectations for this month : - An April fish for my loved PanO, fake units with smoke grenades xD - Zoe & Pi Well - De Fersen - Something new for ALEPH/SP ? - Something new for YJ? - Brawlers ? Fortunately, we'll have the adepticon very soon ;)

The main problem with playing Fractaa is the lack of releases. If CB was serious about us fielding them they would give us more. This is the real reason Bostria suggested getting a second box of Kaeltar. He knew the Taqeul wouldn't be released until 2034.
Bostria stressed last year that the Pneumarch (probably wrong spelling) was not Ur, and that they haven't decided what they will look like yet.
The CA in the human sphere are an expeditionary force sent to keep an eye on the newly discovered human race, situated in a really odd wormhole that makes space travel hazardous, that and the fact humanity is not as advanced as the races EI is usually interested in made the HS a low priority target, given the discovery there is a digester there changes the situation and priorities dramatically.
