    I'd really like it to be no boobs on armor, period. <Some> anime aesthetics is one thing, shaping the armor to be a purpose-defeating bullet catcher is another.

    Also: hmm, helmetless female Sogarat character sounds like fun.

    I will forever defend the use of boobs on /some/ armor.

    Tactical bulletproof corsets DO exist (not in use by any military forces, just as a kinda silly fashion acessory). And vanity IS a thing, so I don't mind that a few characters or units, especially ones where their appearance is kinda important (Most ALEPH stuff, Riot Grrls, etc) have boob plates.

    However, it does get to a point where it's irrelevant, like the female ariadna prospector (which I really think looks awesome). So like, I'm all up for a meet in the middle approach. I wouldn't like to see a female Veteran Kazak with a boob plate, but on the other hand, I do like my oznats with their bone bikinis, thank you very much.

    Kendrat looks like a female bodybuilder sculpt. I am fine with that though I do not like the look very much. I like the Oznats they look similar to the Daturazi. Apart from that we only have the pilot and the old Zerats and Anyat as female representatives of the Morats. I like to see some female sculpts in MAF to bring in more diversity. I like to see boob-armour, but not on a S5 HI (this is an oversized servo armour).

    In general I like combat heels but I am also fine with some more realistic female sculpts and at the moment I think CB has a realy good balance design wise.

    PS: Wait - Dravot is a female? :wink:

    (by 'OnTableTop' - video about the hunters from TAG Raid kickstarter)

    About 4:43 into it, a "Morat Huntress".

    It was also in the KS.

    The Dravot Group also have their own Morat Huntress! Hunters are the latest addition to the battlefields of Infinity Deathmatch: TAG Raid. These specialists in hunting Megabeasts have a different profile and role in the game than the other miners.

    I assume it's some kind of fuel/power cell, but essentially yes

    Some time ago I was really against that kind of armor, but then I've stumbled upon these two vids, and now I don't cringe every time I see boob-armor.

    I didn't see it in the way you had meant it, kinda just skipped by me sorry, but it's likely because there have been a few people who hadn't realised. Still, all good I hope :)

    As someone were appointed as a safety manager for a construction site, I can't help but clench my teeth, watching someone operating a rotary tool with loose long braided hair. :grimacing:
    That bothers me more than boob armor could ever hope to.

    PS: This is nitpicking but those types of teeth on that saw blade are not suited for rock cutting

    She's not part of the mining operation, she's a Hunter there specifically to fight the mega-beasts. Her saw is meant for meat, not rocks!

    My one big wish for morat redesign is that the rock cutting chainsaw becomes a continuous CCW. Thats how you rend and tear!

    My female Morat hunters, especially the Oznat twins, are proud of their bodies, svelte to robust, and view any singular body-type standard or patriarchical-enforced encasement of their forms in protective armor as an insult to their acquired warror knowledge and skills.

    Strangely neither my Eldar, nor Space Marines (BTW all female under their armor) have never attracted, nor repelled?, a new player of a feminine persuasion to join in the tabletop fray. But my asexual Necrons? Like ants on candy....

    But seriously, diversity in the viable field-ability (rules) of Morat models would be my ONE wish. (ref: WiT? Morat redesign thread)

    Perhaps that fuel tank attachment is to sear as one slices? Like Ahi. Sashimi grade monster...

    First of all, the last two points are being a hobbylet, but it's ok, you can practice out of it. /s

    Not everyone finds the sexuality scrubbed out of the female characters to be inclusive; some people (including some women in the hobby that I've talked to) find it off-putting when female characters aren't allowed to be feminine and sexy as well as being ass-kickers. Defining it uniformly as the "male gaze" is just wrongheaded, imo.

    No I can't agree, I really love to watch CBs beautiful body's in strong or action-packed poses. The world is ugly enough on its own let us have at least some eye candy, curvy and or sexy bodies at least in this fictual Sci fi game
