"Ghost snipers are specialized and secretive hunter-killers employed ostensibly to help patrol the borders by employing powerful rifles to bring death to hapless intruders who wander into their sights. Many were already sympathetic to the Retribution while others seek profit and a chance to exercise their skills abroad. These killers stand ready to aim their formidable rifles at the enemies of the Retribution."
PP is a preview machine right now. This guy's all right. He seems kind of plain.

Of the latest previews I think this is the weakest. Standard pose, and a gun that's a little bit too sci-fi and bulky.
Not a bad mini by any standard but I don't like the way they went with it.

I like the shooting pose when it's on the game table behind a low wall or set of bushes. Plain like this in a picture though it does strike me as dull also.
Sounds like he might work for other factions too, which is neat.

Doug squashed that one right away. He is not a merc. Link

I don't mind it. A sniper shouldn't be flashy and pretty.
The gun is a little weird, but I'll take it. I give it a 6.85998 out of 10.

In other news, PP has surpassed GW in the field of run-on sentences.

It's better to simply be an idiot, as no one can call you on it here. -H.B.M.C.
Cap'n Gordino's instant grammar guide:
"This is TOO expensive." "I'm going TO the store, TO get some stuff."
"That is THEIR stuff." "THEY'RE crappy converters."
"I put it over THERE." "I'll go to the store THEN."
"He knows better THAN that." "This is NEW." "Most players KNEW that." |

The paint scheme they picked for the Retribution works a LOT better with less of the white armor showing. It's nice when little bits break up the cloth, but on the more armored minis it looks horrible.

Looks like a flip out stand Luna for when your lying down trying to shoot.

When you give total control to a computer, it’s only a matter of time before it pulls a Skynet on you and you’re running for your life.

Bipod is the word you're looking for.
Arcanist is pretty nice as well.
