Aren't the twins basically going to be the female Kum rider box?

Wow.. you mean to say that they are actually being releaed?!

Probably not with individual profiles. But CB have confirmed there's another Kum box on the way, with both riders being female, and (at least internally) they've been calling them the twins.

If we are going to have racing twins...




Come on CB, you know what you have to do.

What is that from?

Those are the super boins from Redline, an enjoyable style over substance intergalactic racing movie from Japan.

Something with lots of tentacles would be my guess.

Looks like Studio Madhouse art there. *checks Wikipedia* Yep, that's Madhouse all right.

So, where'd all this talk of "The Twins" come from? Beg's profile is the first I've ever heard mention of them.

Mayacast episode with Carlos (Bostria) mentions them. As do some of the seminars put on by CB at various conventions.

This week's Sniper Shot is an Ariadnan boot.

As of right now, it only matches the Spetsnaz and the new Scout. The cross lacing is the indicator.
Looks like December might see a new Russian Ariadna model or potentially a box of them.

Thx man for this one.

Hmmm.. new Kazak box perchance? Or Tankhunters?

Slave drones, got to be..

There are some really nice vids on AGs Facebook page of the Jotum, linked here from Youtube

Very doubtful it's a Kazak box.

It might be a new Tankhunter(although they refuse to redo the Autocannon one; like chumps) but more likely it is another Spetsnaz(HMG profile exists--or Boarding Shotgun) or a Scout with Ojotnik(which is an iconic main rulebook unit).

...probably because it's already awesome, has a way better pose than anything new that's come out in a loooong time (autocannon ragefist, anyone?), and there are plenty of other holes in the line to fill in/redo first.

Hardly chumpworthy!

It's not going to match up well once the rest of the line is updated. Best model in the range will be undernourished teenage girl in comparison to the other new Kazaks in a years time.

The older style Tankhunters are actually heroic in scale in comparison to the newer models.

And I actually don't like the pose. It's ridiculous in style for shooting such a weapon, and the only reason it really sells well is not because of the sculpt, but more because the weapon itself is so goddamn brutal.

I'm pretty sure I only bought that mini cause it looks great, and I don't even collect Ariadna!

The Autocannon Tankhunter is cool, but I wouldn't mind it being updated. The pose is a little bit silly, and it's an absolute pig to put together.

Koni posted the following:

No, no se retrasa, pero tened en cuenta, que el 8 es festivo, y que los envíos no tardan 12-24h a todo el mundo. Por lo tanto, será un poco dificil que el 9-10 lo tenga todo el planeta en sus manos. Pero entre el 8 y 19 lo recibirá todo el mundo, eso seguro, unos antes y otros después, inevitablemente

The rough jist of it was translated by Yasbir on the official forums:

N3 is not delayed,but have in mind that 8th is holiday in spain and that the deliveries needs more than 12/24h.so,it is difficult that the 9th or 10th everybody could have the book in his hands...but between the 8th and the 19th everybody will have it,some before,some after.

The holiday is the "Feast of Immaculate Conception", if anyone was interested. Also these dates likely only apply to those who preordered from Corvus Belli.

I wonder if those of us who ordered from US sellers will see N3 this year?

It looks like we should, but given how Icestorm went...

The issue is that we don't know whether or not the December 8th date was JUST for preorders through Corvus Belli--or if US stockists are going to get their stock this week...

I'm, sadly, thinking that it is more likely we will see N3 by mid/late January.

Since all the US 'actual stock you can buy' seems to run 1-2 months behind I'm sure it will be late January at best, and possibly into Feb before it's really available over there

we might just get lucky in Europe, but with the Xmas post hitting full speed ahead I'm not convinced about that either

There was an instagram link posted to Facebook with the caption:

N3 annotations. ‪#‎infinitythegame‬ ‪#‎N3‬ http://ift.tt/1y3MXvh

Interesting notes on how to handle the order pool, while we're planning our release speculation riots.

Some kind soul wish to summarize the new info in an easier to read format?

http://warsen.al/collections/markers?page=2

Warsenal has some new tokens for N3

Sup. fairy dust
Targeted (FO?)
Damaged (Terrain? N3 will have some ways to damage buildings so maybe this is it)
Destroyed (Terrain?)
Supportware(Hacker?)
Isolated(IIRC "Oblivion" hacker protocol make that efect)
Marksmanship L2 (WUT?)
E. Reaction B2 (Hacker buff for remotes?)
Corrosion(new ammo efect?)
Tinbot(no idea, new bot for specialists?)
Sniffer(new equipment mentioned some time ago, basicly a marker that alows to discover in ZoC)
Blinded(after flash efect?)
Spearhead(no idea)

I really hope they can get delivery to the states for N3 by the beginning of January.
We have a large Dire States tourney in Houston on the 18th of January (at a brewery, if anyone likes beer and wants to come on down).

We really want to do it with full N3 rules, instead of the 2.5 our TO has been running lately.

You're better off running 2.5 because N3 isn't going to be widespread enough by that point in time unless you're in Europe.

No tentacles involved, actually was an enjoyable racing anime.

Hopefully should go better, since CB ordered the books from someone else and are really just acting as distributor in this case.

The same printers who brought us Campaign: Paradiso, eventually? Actually, that's not fair. Similar thing happened to Paizo with their latest Adventure Card game this past August. I suspect it happens more than just rarely-- botched printing runs. Icestorm needed outside printing (books and the Moto.Tronic packs) and outside dice making, in addition to the minis, so three sources for that. Just two for N3, if you consider Derp the Bounty Hunter as part of it.

The books start shipping on the 8th, next Monday, but are they shipping from CB to the distributors, or from the distributors to retailers? If the latter, we will get them by Christmas, I hope. Otherwise, Sad Panda time, since we won't see them until after the New Year.

I like how the pages are in English, but the annotations are in Spanish. I'd take the books in Spanish if it would get them to me faster. No habría ningunas problemas.

Apparently Monday is a national holiday, so later in the week - and it's always been the shipping date from CB not from the distributors. :(
