I'm actually really impressed by those USAriadna grunts. I really didn't like any of the models from the USariadna starter pack, even the Dog Warrior who IMO look like this, but these are nice.
The galaxy is littered with the single-planet graveyards of civilisations which made the economically sensible decision not to explore space.

Yeah, it's just been in the past week that these are back out. Miniature Market changed from Preorder to In Stock just in the last couple days and mine shipped out today.

I too think he is kickass. Will get one for my QK eventually, even if the Ghulam versions are better.
While we've got this discussion here, what the heck is Father Knight from O:IS got his foot up on? Looks like a dismembered piece of something but I'm not familiar enough with the range yet to recognize it.

Ok, I actually like this game!

My money is a Ramhorn Should pad and a shoulder actuator. Ramhorn is the style of TAG that Scarface has.
Thoughts? Agree or disagree?

I don't understand such rage over an Alguacil hacker. CB likely realized the only one to be had is in a box set not everyone may want to buy so they put out another one. Looks like a cool mini to me.
I rage because they've put Alguacil LGL version in the support box and released re-sculpt for already existing miniature that isn't that old - Alguacil hacker. Not to mention very cool Nomad RPG character that will likely be used for good replacement. I doubt I'll see Fusilier LGL resculpt any time soon.

I might use the Nomad looking civilian as a clockmaker proxy--can't stand the original sculpt. Any idea on when these will hit the marketplace?

I can't imagine they'll be long seeing as we're seeing painted finished models. Next month maybe, or the one after?

Welp, the Ariadna HMG suffers from "forward mag placement", again... This time it's so far forward the dude is just gripping the mag instead of using either what would be the gun's normal hand-grip, or a vertical one you can add onto the weapon. *sigh*
Meh, I am not getting the new scale stuff anyway, so it's a wash, but it really does bug me when I see it on what would otherwise be a really nicely done miniature.

It might be a "preorder bonus" for the RPG or a Kickstarter bonus...

Thirding the foregrip. You can see it plain as day. he's got a balled fit in front of the magazine. He's not holding the magazine in any way, he's gripping something tube-like in front of it. It's a foregrip.

Yeah the picture I was looking at wasn't as well illuminated and from a different angle. But yeah, that magazine, and the magazine on the sniper rifle are much further forward than I'd like. It's just something which irritates me when I see it on what would otherwise be really great miniatures.

I'm tempted, the models look kind of neat to paint.. but you can't take those in the Shasvastii sectorial right? Seems kind of silly to pick that up now when I haven't got anything but shasvastii. Also still really shaky on how the whole baggage thing works or even imetrons for that matter (but I guess they're just cheap, yet easy to kill, orders).

Imetrons aren't--but Imetrons are available to Vanilla and likely are going to be a key part of the Evolved Intelligence Sectorial, like how ALEPH's Vedic Sectorial was going to necessitate the Netrods being a key feature.
Ikadrons have (Baggage, Repeater), 2x Light Flamethrowers, Flash Pulse for Ranged weapons. They come with G: Autotool and are AVA 2 for Shasvastii.
Also, it's worth mentioning that there are rumblings that Shasvastii are going to see a full makeover, Morat style. Hence why we saw nothing really new for them lately.

Oh, thanks for that, Kan. I will have to reconsider, then. I must have skimmed over the profile too quickly and haven't checked out the new army builder d'oh.
I'm fearful of any shasvastii reboot. I really like what already exists and I'm not sure how they could make a lot of it much cooler... but if they manage to I'll be freaking screwed moneywise =/ Oh well though, at least any inconsistencies between unit types can be more readily explained away by them evolving to meet changing conditions etc. Hard to have old and new morats together, but a new breed of shasvastii doesn't seem as far-fetched to me.
Curses.. now do I want it or not.. he'd look pretty cool with the unidrons whenever I get those..
