    Sorry, I have been away for a bit, but was wondering if there is intel on what factions are expected in the next Operations box and when that box is planned to release.

    Thank you!

    If you mean one of the two faction boxes like ice storm and cold front then it’s likely to be Haqqislam and Aleph. I’m unsure of the release dates but I’d hazard a guess at April for this, though it could be later. Anyone more in the know, please give us the information we seek!

    edit: haqqi and Aleph are likely as they’re the ones missing from code one.

    I believe March (Adepticon) is the Morats Action Pack. August (Gen Con) is the two faction set.

    Thank you! Was hoping that the time for a MRRF return had come. Interested to see what they do with Aleph and Haqq though.

    Thought it was later than April. Oh well, gives my wallet time to fatten itself up.

    Adepticon is in late March, and the Morat box will be available early at the convention, but they'll be April releases.

    Sorry for the confusion, I meant I thought that the box with Aleph and haqqi in would be later than April but thanks for clearing up when the Morat will be available! They’ll make a good gift if nothing else.

    Oh right, yeah. The Haqq/Aleph Battle Box will be a Gen Con release (first weekend of August) so probably hitting stores in August or September.

    I’m going to agree with the general consensus and say that the haqqi side will be bahram redone. I’m not sure which the Aleph lot will be but I hope they have a redone Ajax! Roll on August/September!

    Considering Steel Phalanx is almost entirely unavailable, I would say there is a very high chance it is being redone.

    Fluff-wise, nothing has been mentioned beyond OS and SP. They could surprise us with something new but I think it will be new SP.

    I'm hoping for a re-make of QK. I've done a bit of them when I branched out into Druze.

    QK also has much older models compared to HB, but updating HB has been a focus since the start of N4. Plus, if CB intends to bring out a new Haqq sectorial then they may leave QK in the bin for awhile, so IMO it’s a bit of a coin flip.

    I really wonder if we might see an ISS rework for the 2023 Adepticon box, or maybe in September of this year. If CB wants Action Pack releases to generally parallel the factions released in Operations boxes, Yu Jing would be due for an Action Pack box. So far we’ve seen Starmada (O-12), MO (PanO), and now Morats (CA). That would imply the next three Action Packs would be sectorials of YJ (ISS, or maybe a naval sectorial?), Nomads (Bakunin?), and Ariadna (???).

    For Haqq they could go with an almost compromise by some troops being new and some for QK. We right now have no idea what a new sectoral would have. For all we know there's some QK troops in it. Jannisaries, Ghulam of course, Bashi.

    Yu Jing and PanO Action packs were already announced. They are just the Kaldstrom sets added and divided.

    Mmmm…not quite what I was referring to, I omitted the Operation repack Action Packs as not relevant.

    To be more complete, confirmed products bold, here’s what I expect for 10-model Action Pack lineup progression:

    O-12 Action Pack (Wildfire repack)
    Starmada Action Pack (new sculpts)


    Combined Army: Shasvastii Action Pack (Wildfire repack)
    Morat Aggression Force Action Pack (new sculpts?)


    PanOceania Action Pack (Kaldstrom repack)
    Military Orders Action Pack (new sculpts)


    Yu Jing Action Pack (Kaldstrom repack)
    ???? Conjectural ISS Action Pack (new sculpts)

    Nomads: Corregidor Action Pack (Crimson Stone repack, presumed)
    ???? Conjectural Bakunin Action Pack (new sculpts)

    Ariadna: Kosmoflot Action Pack (Crimson Stone repack, presumed)
    TAK Action Pack (N3 Coldfront repack)
    ???? Conjectural USARF Action Pack (new sculpts)

    Haqq Action Pack (N3 Red Veil repack)
    Conjectural N4 Haqq: Hassassins Action Pack (Operation TBD repack)
    ??? Conjectural QK or new sectorial Action Pack (new sculpts)

    Aleph OSS Action Pack (N3 Coldfront repack)
    Conjectural N4 Aleph: Steel Phalanx Action Pack (Operation TBD repack)
    ???? Conjectural Aleph: OSS or new sectorial N4 Action Pack (new sculpts?)

    NA2 JSA Action Pack (N3 repack)
    NA2 Spiral Corps Army Pack (N3 legacy box)



    Does that make it clearer?

    Welp, got my Gen Con badge and a connected hotel room, so whatever it will be, I'll get my grubby mitts on it early.

    I'm almost positive we'll know the contents in advance of GenCon so you'll already know if you need to smuggle glue in your bags. :D

    Last time I accidentally left superglue in my carry on and security didn't find it, only realised when I got home, two flights later!

    You can always find a Dollar-type store near the venue with little tubes of super glue. It's actually the glue I get all the time now.

    I just noticed that the 2 factions of the Operation: Blackwind box had 2 emblematic factions, which appear in the alexandernevsky comics. Coincidence ? Are we going to have miniature sculpts from these comics? I want to believe it... :laughing:
