It'd be cool if they could have integrated the unit cards as some device in the game. They're decent quality.

I would love to have little bits of fluff on those cards, not copy past from core book but something new(dont have to be much) about unit.
As for my earlier post, It was as Solkan said but I dont know if it was joke or not, just something that came to my attencion.
Sory for truble We have to wait after new years eve to see if it was joke or not.
Every Nomad kid want to be a Tomcat when they grow up.

I wish they had the stats on them so they could be used as an easy reference.

I agree! Someone did it a few years ago for all the factions. They were card sized, had all the stats with picture and the weapon and ranges on it. Also had points. So you could really just build the army with cards and then be able to reference it all the time.
I asked a few months back on the offical forums if someone has better ones or will be for N3 and pitchforks came. Aparently the army builder is it to them, and anything else is heresy

I would love to see playing cards for the units. I grew accustomed to them playing Malifaux. And I play another game that uses cards -- Pathfinder Adventure Card Game. I find them an indispensable playing aid. Those new blister cards look nice. But I think the reason for no stats on them is language based.

Isn't the N3 roster system supposed to make things all the same regardless of language?
Anyway Knight Models is also Spanish & they've got very useful inserts for Batman.
*shrug* I'm content with the army builder now that I have an iPad from this century.
Current news from CB is that the remaining profiles will be out sometime next week the 6th-8th. For the most part the changes are adjustments in point costs and CC values. Nothing major. Maybe as few small surprises.

Hey!
Hoy NO van a estar. Dejar el F5 tranquilo.
Acabo de votar por entre el 6 y el 8. Ojalá me equivoque y sea antes.
Esto es una labor encadenada y tiene que pasar filtros, evidentemente los dias festivos de las navidades no ayudan y eso que tenemos a un héroe que ha apurado cada minuto antes de su "feliz circunstancia".
Si alguien va a jugar ya mismo y quiere una partida totalmente N3le emplazo a servirse solamente delos perfiles del Libro que ya sabemos.
También pincharé unos cuantos globos a quien espere que el PDF de perfiles de Human Sphere, Campaign Paradiso y Dire Foes traiga tremendos cambios en los perfiles, para la gran mayoría es un recálculo de puntos, suben losCCs, se abarata la gente en general... Alguna sorpresilla pequeñita habrá pero no es como para replantearse la vida.
Se que han sido unos dias duros después del apocalíptico mazazo del párrafo perdido y sus consecuencias fatales para la existencia de la vida en el planeta tal y como la conocemos, pero debemos sobreponernos y quedarnos solo con las 277 páginas del reglamento que están mínimamente aceptables.
Por lo demás desearos-desearnos a todos un buen año y una espera por los perfiles mínima.
Feliz 2015
Happy New Year Gents.

Yeeeeeah...one would hope there's more than just "changes in points costs and CC values", because otherwise the length of time this has taken is kind of ridiculous.

Points costs will be big yes.
However stuff like hacking devices will matter (at least looking at my Nomads it will!). Looking at my Rev. Custodiers; better keep hacking device plus. Also which units get assault hacking device vs regular ones.
I wonder if some units will have nimbus 'nades replace their smoke?
Hopefully the Salamandra TAG will be back :-/
I'm also eager to see how units like Haramaki & Domaru will fare... also the Oniwaban.
Is that a natural 21?

Have to agree here. It's pretty well know that the majority of points values are based on standard equipment and skill costs layered on top of a profiles that have a standard cost, then sometimes rejiggered a bit if they feel like it. You would hope they'd have been smart enough to find a way to calculate those quickly after feeding the values and unit setups in.
Not to mention a lot of the units in the core rulebook got more subtle changes than just CC and points changes. You'd hope they'd give the rest of the range the same consideration simply from a balance perspective.

One might hope that even Sekban might be worth taking....
I just think the length of time is more to do with them not wanting to bugger something up by not testing it properly unlike a certain other company. They probably just don't want to overlook some less noticeable power spike with certain units/combos, particularly in regards to link teams and whatnot.
I would like to see them, however, rejigger some of the skills and their costs a bit more; lord knows the terrain ones really don't come into play much.
Therefore, I conclude, Valve should announce Half Life 2: Episode 3.

Yah it's a shame they haven't been practical compared to other choices. The new models are rad.
