Here I am just wanting Chasseurs which don't like, well, how they do. And that you can only get one of them without buying a starter.

With the para-commando. God help me.

To be honest, the only old-gen model I really like is the reloading Moblot. The quality gulf is enormous, so I'm all for more resculpts so long as keep getting some more options covered; still a few too many gaps out there for my tastes - and I play FRRM and QK, which aren't anywhere near as lacking as some...

Guy with blades looks like he's either directing airport traffic or signaling in semaphore. Gonna need to repose that one...

Oh, look, a Sniper Shot.

It is probably just me, but I don't get the point of the "Sniper Shot".

An actual real preview/teaser would be better.

Otherwise it is like playing a game of "Concentration" with barely any context.

Even Angel's "White Sguiggly Line Specials" are better.

Yeah, I doubt anybody but the guys at Corvus gets the point.

Still, information and that, we have to collect it or something.

To me it just makes me think of those 'art shot' photos, where it's some shadowed crevice and fishnets that always obviously a zoomed in shot of someone's arse

Well a lot of them seem to be crotch shots so it's not even that far off!

Ill be getting the biker mercenary.

Maybe it'll actually be Govads this time?

I'm hazarding a guess that that's a boob.

Have you...seen a boob? They aren't square, they tend not to have big grooves in them, or weird ripply bits...

That said I don't have a clue what it is and I've been wrong before...

Shasvaasti maybe? It appears to be some form of alien bodytype with a square elbow/knee/shoulder pad.

All the weird rippling gives me a CA vibe.

Could be. It's impossible to even guess what it might be considering the tiny amount of information we've been given.

It's like we're in a GW news/rumour thread, lets start wishlisting!

Well, with the EI and Morat more or less done Shasvatii would be the next in line, though only a few designs have aged badly and mostly the weapons.

Wishful thinking here, but I'd like to see CB surprise us and do a resculpt of something like Shang-Ji. There are plenty of cool units in the range with only one dated miniature to represent a variety of profiles.

Army updated now with Spec-Ops

Caliban box set is still missing, and IMO will shake things up something fierce. I know I'll finally be able to move on from seed soldiers when these lads hit.

Caliban, Seed Soldiers, Gwailos...

Shasvastii basically have no boxed sets for their infantry. They have the Sphinx box and the Shasvastii Expeditionary Force (which is awful for anyone wanting to start playing right off the bat with Shasvastii) and then a ton of blisters.

The box set isn't awful itself. Granted I did pick up the Corax and used the weapons to spruce up the seeds.

As a starting point it is awful, doesn't even provide a legal list to start plaing and Seeds are pretty useless (unless you turn them into Malignos/Shrouded/whatever Shas you can)

The ARMY V is not worthy of the price we've payed for it.
I want my money back!

....oh wait!

Whether it's free or not, it has been a buggy mess.

While V is effectively one man working on it, it is bizarre that they did not want to ensure Army V was ready to go when N3 was released.

I'm hazarding a guess you've never seen a boob before.

He might simply have been making a guess based simply on CB's taste in models? Though, granted, 'the arse' will always be the safest guess in that case.

That would've made sense but it's too late now, just have to hope they learn from the few cock ups with N3.

If you see this, and your first thought was "boob," then I don't think it's an unfair for others to assume you've never seen a boob.

I mean, it could be a hip, or some sort of joint....but boob? is it because it has some curvature to it? Because it feels like a bag of sand?

I just can't see how one would get "boob."

Because it's a sniper shot from Corvus Belli, and they love showing off T&A?

I'm asking, though.

What about that says boob to anyone that's seen a boob, real or on on a miniature?

Obviously the zoomed in part isn't an actual boob, but again it isn't a bad guess to make given that the picture seems to be of a left arm taken from a side/rear angle.
