The new update got me thinking that all of the NA2 forces some love. I think they could use some additions or change of troops. Druze It’s been mentioned before but Druze could use some HI and I think they would be welcoming to “particular” troops. Vokolak Dog Warriors Wulver They already have Wolfgang so bring in his buddies! These three seem like a great fit for Druze. It gives them some toughness and assault ability. Ikari I still have no idea why they got Kiutan Imposters. They are not bad, but JSA/Shinden just got a bunch of new troops. So, these are troops I think that should have also been added to Ikari. Kyojin Killers Kurayami Ninja Nokizaru Kunai Ninja I feel the up-close killers would be the ones to join Ikari. It would be cool if they had like an AVA1 Domaru Lt. too. It just fits the theme for me. The Nokizaru sucks but there's the hope it will be made better. I vote it best looking figure with bad rules. Dashat They lost their one good Lt. with the Zuyong. They really need something back. My thoughts. Naffatun Zhayedan Unique Lt. version of Miranda Ashcroft I’d like to see more Yu Jing but I’m not sure what’s appropriate. Maybe an upgrade of Zhencha to a Daofei. This could also help with the lack of Lt. options. Starco I don’t know enough of SC to really be able to say anything. Does anyone have ideas? White Banner Honestly, I don’t think they need anything. But I’m sure someone has ideas? I’d like to see a comeback of some Tohaa/Sprial into some of the existing NA2 forces. All but Starco have at least 1. I’d like to see maybe the Tagmaa, Krigel, Draal. Or maybe a troop where you MUST take a haris 3 or none at all.
For druze i think could be nice aditions for HI Al fasid, Who IS in dashat, or azra'il, for some low tech hi. Cheers
Its the White Company and they have enough. Mostly Svarlaheima & White Banner with a Aleph dot and sprinkles of NA/Haq. I did not understand why they got Black Op and Blockers also. For Druze I could see Jannissars with low AVA. In general Druza are low on MSV and have no Albedo. Koyin Killers are basicaly Beast Hunters. So yes BH for Ikari is something I would take. Nokizaru would also be fitting but otherwise I would not give much of the new troops to NA2. Dashat´s weakness are Lts. Same goes for Druze and Ikari. I think CB want it that way. Star Co has better options and WC does not care. In general I would like to see some unique troop type like the Druze itself for Ikari and Dashat. Maybe a MI version of Zhanshi for Ikari and a downgraded Khawaris für Dashat.
For Druze, IMO, the right approach would be scratch them off and get back to the drawing board. They were developed as a narrative faction for the Outrage mission pack, and I'm of the opinion never given a consideration as an actual army. They were then caught up with by the rest of NA2, and then left in the dust. Only given fractional updates by adding some new units - but not really in any organized, thought through way. Meaning they are, IMO, the lamest duckling of the 8 armies I play. 3 of which are NA2. So, CB, get back to the drawing board and think - who are the DBS meant to be, and how they are meant to play?
