Indeed. I'm fine with being patient, I just wish they had made this announcement last week rather than after their printer posted on the Spanish forums about the situation...

Tohaa TAGs are just really big Symbiont Armor. Can't wait too start them, they just get better and better.
P.S. Guided Rockets, fear me ODD. Hope my Nomads get one.

Peter: As we all know, Christmas is that mystical time of year when the ghost of Jesus rises from the grave to feast on the flesh of the living! So we all sing Christmas Carols to lull him back to sleep.
Bob: Outrageous, How dare he say such blasphemy. I've got to do something.
Man #1: Bob, there's nothing you can do.
Bob: Well, I guess I'll just have to develop a sense of humor.

A bit more detail you two, please?
Ambassador has 2 option, one is a non-civvie option. Giving the Tahoo a 5pt cheerleader.
While GoGo is likely to get the Journalist skill so if you take her as part of your army in campaigns you get a bonus to Promotion Roles, give you a better chance to get multiple paths on the Army Upgrade table.

The missions will likely have a drawback for killing civvies.

My bad on the Tohaa Diplomatic didn't notice the Irregular icon (not use to them yet) so no order to the order pull, but she is a 5pt Specialist Troop.
d-usa: the new stuff are rules expansion and a hand full on the new profiles from the upcoming campaign book. Basical CB way of saying sorry for the extra delay on the book.

Unfortunately, due some reasons related with the print process, the release of the “Infinity. Campaign: Paradiso” book will be delayed until the second half of October.
We regret any inconvenience this delay may cause.
Thank you very much for your patience and understanding.

These rules are indeed just a slice of the full package tht the book will present.
A few thoughts:
-The various different fireteam rules are going to lead to really different playstyles, which are all really flavorful.
--The Aleph fireteams are max size 4, which means they're great at moving dudes forwards but not as good at shooting- which really cants them towards assault. Very characterful.
--Haris makes Odalisques the defensive bulwarks they're supposed to be in the fluff- perfect for bodyguards.
--Tohaa have great defensive capacity with their unlimited 3-man teams, but won't be getting SSL2 or +3 BS. Very cool, and probably has implications that will only become clear with play.
-Wildcat hackers allow Corregidor to keep up with the rest of the Nomdas in hacker-quality. In fact, they also promote a style of aggressive in-person hacking that you don't see a lot in the other Nomad lists (fireteam lets you get a non-camo hacker up close and personal with less risk than normal).
-More civvie presence is really going to add depth to for the sort of low-intensity combat that Infinity is supposed to simulate. Having to consider collateral damage is a lot more interesting than just slaying everything on the table that moves (that's what games like 40K are for).
Infinity: Way, way better than 40K and more affordable to boot!

A brief message from Bostria in the Spanish official forum: the delay on book's printing process has been positive for the books, now it has more artwork on it, and the text has more room. Still, it's a few days delay, nothing really large. He has also exalted Palanka (web admin) as a great problem solver, and says that thanks to him the book will be better than expected.
About two weeks more, my guess. It's not a Dark Eldar-size delay, and if the book is really good... it's worthy.
