What's the thoughts on the new supplement coming out soon? I'm all for the new Ghar list as my own force is based more on the renegade theme for ghar.

Campaign play and the ability to build characters is looking good too. Sounds like a lot in the book which'll be of use for gaming generally.

I think it should be great. The new rebel Ghar list with added units for the likes of the Algoryn and a few more special characters will add something to the game. Add in the new scenarios and additions/advancement of the background and I am really looking forward to it.

Has this, or any other part of Dakka, got a show off your painted GoA miniatures thread yet?

Also someone has provided a useful overview of what the individual factions feel like:

And a further blog with 500 point sample army lists with larger point sized armies due in the future:

Th scenarios and the campaign elements are highly attractive. I've got the book preordered, so just wisit for whenever it's supposed to come out this month. Hopefully the campaign system will be less fiddly than the infinity paradiso one, which was a bit of a headscrambler of complication.

Not seen any painting threads, but my Ghar are coming along nicely lately. Very quick to paint!

Where did the Algoryn drop pods pix come from?

I've been searching around, but I can't seem to find anymore info on them.

It came from the GoA Facebook group called IMTEL. It is very useful if you have a Facebook with lots of previews and is all round a pretty cool community.

I have the confirmation email too, am looking forward to the supplement, bonus rebel Ghar, x-howitzer and C3M4 drone.

Has anyone got the new Xilos campaign book yet and would like to post their thoughts on it?

I have it. About half the book is the campaign and it's 6 scenarios. Many of them are pretty different from your usual game, think along the lines of the narrative ones in the big rule book, and some of them like the tunnel game might be quite difficult to setup. It also includes bonuses and results that carry between games.

The rest of the book is an expansion of the army building in the rulebook. There are rules for mercs and allies and stats for the npc critters. There are army book updates for Isorians, Algoryn and Freeborn (Just a new weapon team). Ghar Rebels get a new army list and Freeborn and Boromite get a trimmed down merc army lists. Then there are a bunch of special characters.

Overall it's worth getting if you're interested the campaign or are one of the army getting a good amount of new stuff like the Ghar Rebels or Isorians. As a Boromite player I'm not really sure I needed to buy it. I don't think I'll get around to playing the campaign, the new army list isn't very useful for me and while I like (and bought) the special characters sculpt I'm really not sold on expensive character models ingame.

Anyone still playing this? After taking a break to play computer games and paint Samurai I'm now 1 X-Launcher away from having my 1k army painted.

I'm still very interested in the game, but unfortunately it has not achieved much local traction, so it's kind of on the back burner right now.

That's a shame. Hopefully it'll pick up when the plastics for other races come out. Warlord have been very slow at that.

It's a bit quiet here as well but there are several players who bought into it but have yet to work on their armies. Hopefully when mine is painted then I can encourage them to get involved again.
