I mean, yeah, especially in Vanilla where the opportunity costs are so much higher. You see attack pieces, warbands, cheerleaders, and camo infiltrators. That's about it. Sectorials are fundamentally more interesting.
Hey, I just got critted with a 14 hour shift, from a construction site that's severely crippled in regards to man power! xD
WIP 13 BTS 0 and regular HD? No, I don't call that "sweet" support. It's a very good price for a very basic profile. I'm talking KHDs, whether there are any good AHDs, skirmishers, TO camo models, hidden rocket launchers, etc. I'm talking specifically about Razor, Lambda, Cyberghosts and Varangian Guard. Those are the critical units, tbh. What we've had so far are the beatsticks and cheerleaders. Gangbuster is sweet and I'll probably always run 2 unless there's something with an actual marker state...
Omega doesn't bother me. Every Vanilla faction tends to get a high-quality shooter, something that's really optimized to help them keep pace with Sectorials. Considering how expensive the other O-12 units are, the cheap point cost doesn't really worry me either. The difference between TO and ODD is important for preventing that alpha strike or counter-attack, so the Omega will need to really worry about... Pretty much anything that can take apart a -6 unit that can't do anything in CC.
For sure. If O-12 is light on mines too, it's going to be hard for them to stop repeaters, midfield Hackers, CC warbands, or any halfway decent Combat Infiltrator from being a big threat.
So there's an unhackable, non-hacking faction. It's losing out hard and that's how it should be? Uh, no.
I mean why, would CB make good and interesting new profiles for the new faction that they are trying to sell?? Why can't everything be bland and boring or at the very least statted out like x faction to make me feel good about said x faction?!?!
As a YJ player i'm pretty jealous. The Omega is only a little more than a Shang Ji but much better and the Beta is the replacement for Karakuri I would have liked. But i'm used to disappointment lol. I guess they are pretty good for O-12.
The fact that they seem to have cottoned on to No Wound Incapacitation + Shock or Bioimmunity is really jarring for those of us who have 40+ point models that die to one shock round that CB clearly thinks are fine.
