    Well, FRRM is one up on Imperial Service! ISS is supposedly not a dead sectoral. ISS has only received one character figure (Adil) in the last five years. I had expected this year to be for them. But alas Nomads get everything :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:.

    Edit: honestly I'm kinda guessing on the last ISS Release. I know Adil was the last one but I can't remember before that. I'm also talking Yu Jing proper. Not mercenaries or Aleph. Adil came out at about 2020 shortly after Operation Kaldstrom. I think Celesltial Guard SWC box was before that in 2018-19. I’m also not complaining because there’s been some great stuff for WB and IA in the years since.

    And Luke Skywalker's father was dead, "from a certain point of view". Except we known he wasn't, and Obi Wan was just lying through his teeth.

    Is the Samsa in ITS box Siocast?

    In the tournament pack description:
    And looking at the list of whats inside:
    It looks like the only thing that could be Siocast.

    Samsa is made of tin, not polyamide.

    So, it seems like in the Zellenkrieger update we will get a few changes too, possibly Uahu going down to S1, up to 19pts, and getting Shock Immunity...

    And getting into Bakunin. yay.

    Uhahu in BJC is probably too much tbh. Although how big it is does depend on what her FTs look like, if she has any.

    I bet riot grrls. But I hope seh won't count as anything at least.

    Anyways, I'm surprised no one has thought about the implications of a hacker plus that carries no gun, just an assault pistol (1-2pts, I assume) and is S1, so she cares nothing about Line of Sight

    While I think Uhahu in BJC is unnecessarily strong, I like the fact that it increases the usefulness of the box for me, a non-Starco player. The Zellenkrieger including Connolly make a wonderful second Überfall when I don't play Tunguska (just put the Extreme on an S2 base), and now I have use for Uhahu as well. Will be a great box for me.

    I hadn't noticed, but the blades ops are wearing half armor, as if they were in half evening gowns that were popular at one time in Cannes. The concept artist confusing the Croisette with war.
    I've calculated the total of releases and various sales operations for the month, and we're talking about over €1,400 worth of choices, not counting the current catalog. My skeleton accountant soul tells me that this is going to dry up sales in the long term, just like the kickstarter. At some point, by pushing people to buy by the hundreds of euros, they won't have the budget to keep buying for the new operations, and if they take a look at their pile of shame, I'm not sure they'll want to add any more. On the other hand, it's certain that this level of tempting operations is probably diverting purchases, and maybe it will cause Acheron Fall to fail. Between doing a yu jing week at -40% and Acheron, it's going to be a Cornelian choice.
    For next, maybe Ariadnan week, I have the impression that they follow the order of the army app. ^^

    With Uhahu Bakunin is finally where they should be long before in terms of hacking prowess. Also the only thing Uhahu brings is an affordable White Noise generator.

    Well, it's 80 euro in e-minis at the moment and I've been seeing it and most of the other collection packs for sale online for ages, which doesn't bode very well for the influx of new players into the game. I've got the feeling the vast majority of people still playing/buying Infinity already have lots of stuff.

    Also, CB getting minis out of production much faster lately and these huge sales looks like they are just clearing space in the warehouse for Warcrow, which also explains other things.

    19pts, WIP14, HD+, pitcher, S1, hacker.

    Pretty standard.

    then: 2W

    What were we saying yesterday? Roses are red, Nomads keep getting buffed ?

    Like Bakunin needed any buff…

    To be fair, Uhahu always had NWI. It's not a new buff. And so far no one ever complained about her.

    1) Shock Immunity is a pretty big buff when you have NWI

    2) Uhahu wasn't in Bakunin before, much less the new and improved "we are 2 Sectorials bundled together and can deploy 3 turn 0 repeaters midfield" Bakunin

    3) turns out having a dirt cheap White Noise is quite good when you are packed with Mim -6 Sororitas

    So more of a Bakunin problem that an Uhahu problem, specially now that out of the 3 Nomad Sectorials the hacking Sectorial has the worst hacker character along with the worst repeater net. They could have left Uhahu in StarCo and released "totally not Uhahu because Uhahu hates Tunguska" for TJC instead of BJC
