Is that supposed to be a nod to Reign of Fire?

**ImAGeek**

Guessing you've not seen the old one:

**.Mikes.**

So that's a yes then. Thought it looked familiar.

**tommse**

Ok, what do I have to do to get Van Zant without being at Gencon? Do they sell exclusives in their shop like PP?

**GrimDork**

So the video confirms $100? No way I have time for 40 minutes even if there are more shots of the minis..

I was hoping the pricepoint would be a bit lower than icestorm, very nice. I'll have trouble staying away now.

Yeah they do. http://store.infinitythegame.com/articulo.php?f=29&o=3&id=2441

Also I think this is a picture of the non limited Van Zant

**Kanluwen**

Marauders are shaping up pretty dang nice. Haris L1 as an option? Heck yeah!

The Mavericks unit entry is all in Spanish; I think that might just be an issue with the mock-up.
The AVA is all for vanilla there, but in this picture you can see the breakdown...

We get names for two new units, "Blackjacks" 10th Battalion of Heavy Rangers and "Desperadoes"(someone found the fluff bit about them--it's angry werewolf hunting bikers...).
We get the name of a new character, "The Unknown Ranger".

**ImAGeek**

The Desperados aren't angry werewolf bikers, they're angry werewolf-hunting bikers.

Yep, that's what I get for reading tiny text without my glasses after just waking up!

It was tiny writing, I had to go reread it to check haha.

**NuclearMessiah**

I see a HARIS team in there as well.

Yep you did, must have just missed it squinting at the pics

**Kanluwen**

We can call it the Kansquint?

**B0B MaRlEy**

What saddens me is that CB still has that problem with mixing up spanish and English in the profiles (as seen in the Maverick profile in the picture Kan posted)
For half a second I wondered if that actually was a 20" move.
Silly me.

Aww!!! but I want Werewolves on Gigantic Bikes!

**NuclearMessiah**

I did catch in the video that the Maverick (mounted) in the box is exclusive to that box.

Also in terms of the fun scale creep at least the only two models in the Army List that we have to suffer with it are now the 112 and Dozer.

Also Van Zant's rules are cool, can deploy on any board edge he wants with his troops in tow.

Are you sure you don't mean the dismounted version?

Because that's the only thing they've been advertising as exclusive to this box right now...

In any case, the Maverick in this box can be fielded as the 0 SWC 21 point variant only if you're wanting to play WYSIWYG.
Maverick loadout options are:
Molotok for 2 SWC and 29 points
Boarding Shotgun for 0 SWC and 21 points
SMG and Light Rocket Launcher for 0.5 SWC and 22 points
Forward Observer profile with a Rifle for 0.5 SWC and 19 points

**NuclearMessiah**

The dismounted is exclusive to the preorder of the box, the mounted is exclusive to the box itself.

Here is the timestamp of where Carlos says it

They definitely said the mounted one was exclusive to the box, and the dismounted one is a preorder exclusive. So I'm guessing the mounted one is the Father Knight /Reverand Healer of the box and the dismounted one is the CSU.

Yep, I watched it...hence the facepalm.

You were doing SO WELL with this CB! SO WELL!

Advantage is I guess I can sell the Maverick on if I want...

Yeah haha sorry you'd posted that while I was typing mine. It is a bit annoying. I'm not sure whether to order it because I really like the Maverick but I really don't like the Devil Dog...

Maverick loadout options are:
Molotok for 2 SWC and 29 points
Boarding Shotgun for 0 SWC and 21 points
SMG and something else(translator failed me along with my eyes today) for 0.5 SWC and 22 points(I'm thinking it might be a LGL)
Forward Observer profile with a Rifle for 0.5 SWC and 19 points

It seems like SMG and light Rocket Launcher (Lanzacohetes lg)!

Edited for the Spanish spelling ...

**Kanluwen**

Thanks Bob.

Was I right on the second profile? I knew it had shotgun but wasn't getting good translations on the other part.

**B0B MaRlEy**

The Boarding Shotgun part?
Sure, it says "Escopeta de Abordaje",that's Boarding Shotgun

**Barzam**

Weren't preorders supposed to go up today or something?

**Kanluwen**

They did on the Corvus Belli site, not sure if anywhere else has put them up.

**NuclearMessiah**

I've contacted TheWarStore about the product, only in hopes it goes up soon since they currently have a 5% off coupon active till the 10th.
