They were always AVA6. What they were actually misssing was a CORE (atm. there is no CORE for only magisters), they had lost thier own CORE in HSN3. Carlos said about some more changes to 2 units, I just hope that one of them is Fersen otherwise he might be completly overshadowed by the Santiago KHD, but we will see :) Damn, those changes....
It's an interesting idea, anyway. Potentially a problem if we're making unique models, though, PanO is always going to be hurting for SKUs. Also, TIKBALANGS IN MO?!?
Tik is only in MO to justify the existence of the Uhlan+Tik box. A rather lazy way to shoehorn it, but I get why. makes no fluff sense, so am not a fan though. Still gonna use it, since he doesn't have an anchor auxbot attached :P
Well, you could always use a Tik in vanilla, and the Cutter survived for years on that alone (oh, and being a TO beast).
As long as they fixed the linkability on the Order Sergeants then I don't think it matters much. 'though dropping a cheap Lt option will hurt some lists.
It is. Especially that now MO has to find a place to find a Lt and it won't be easy (nor cheap). So atm. if my memory serves me next in line (in being cheapest) is/was Teuton Lt for 1 SWC.
We have Hospitaler Haris that can support Joan now. On top of a much improved OS Link. Alternatively the Santiago Spitfire seems to be an excellent solo Lt.
Joan never counted as a Hospitaler like De Fersen did, I'd hold off on planning exact fireteam composition for a little while yet as she may not make the haris.
Indeed. 'though... to be fair... HMG + Doctor Haris + KHD/Deflector Santiago is going to be pretty fraking solid.
I think Joan is both "counts as" Hospitaler and Santiago, as she were in both orders for some time. Not necessarily the counts as in fireteams. Though I think it's possible, Joan will be the wildcard in MO, it makes lot more sense than Rao.
