Crap I just noticed the Ayyar is a HI! An actual Hassassin HI (Asawira don't count since they're not Hassassin) with Holo 2 and Surprise shot L2? Now I'm more excited for the unit.

Absolutely love that piece of artwork. Can now assume that blimps carrying troops will be incoming?

Dark Sphere are selling Human Sphere for £37.50 which is the best offer I have seen so far (Wayland Games have it at £40, although assume you can add something to the order to hit the £50 free shipping level)

Yeah, I added the Voronin that comes out about the same time and got free shipping for both from Wayland.

Such a lovely looking model.

Shipping from Dark Sphere is a lot though, do they have free delivery at a certain amount?

New video, more CA shenanigans.

The Noctifers and Sphinx models aren't being resculpted like a lot of the Shasvastii, they're fine still, so I imagine the Shasvastii aesthetic isn't changing too drastically.

Also the profile of the Xenodron Batroid from that video.


They didn't specifically mention what the "Red Fury" is, but it was rumored quite some time back to be a Spitfire of some sort.

In the Onyx Force, the Xenodrons can be taken as a Haris Fireteam with an Umbra. Later this week, there will be a battle report with the Xenodrons featured.

Additionally, it was stated that the Nexus Operatives can be placed in a Fireteam with Unidron Batroids.

Red Fury is like a spitfire with shock apparently.

Light TAG with Haris. That's scary, then again, no defensive MOD to modify FtF roll with a missile/rocket launcher. GML REM with support ware for extra ARO fun.

I am greatly looking forward to the new light TAG models. Easy to transport and assemble.

Haris is in addition to a core fireteam too, so you could still have a Unidron link or Rodok link (points permitting) in addition to your Haris TAG link.

Nice idea I think I will follow suit..

If guardian is some sort of animal companion and Andromeda comes with a flash pulse (all profiles) here's hoping she gets an Aleph Steel Panther.

The Red Fury is a DAM13 Shock Spitfire with a longer -3 Long Range band. And it's the Samaritan that has Haris rather than the Xeodron.

Obligatory plug, I'm taking HS-N3 reservations for £10.: http://store.wargamingtrader.com/infinity/HS-N3-deposit

If we're wishing for a feline, it has to be a lynx (bobcat for US).

A sea monster or serpent would be the obvious choice.

Not when she's rocking a laser pointer

somtimes on certain things its better if you buy more in ds that balances stuff out. i only want the figure honestly this time.

Why hello there Blackjacks...

The Blackjacks might end up being two models--one "undamaged" and one "Battle Ravaged"; which is a side-effect of "Lo-Tech A".

Oh god archaic HI*
And ARM 4 Light infantry ? What
I'm hyped again

Neat!
Are we expecting 'battle ravaged' to be the state after the full power wound is lost?

Long story short; we don't know. From what I could gather, "Lo-Tech A" is a new rule that we'll have to wait and see.

Most importantly though...
USARIADNA GET WARDRIVERS!

I like the idea of the unknown ranger.

Scavenging is one of the cooler rules they have ever introduced, especially, if like my group you like to link battles together through story.

That's a miniature I want to see. The only thing is, will he look like John Wayne, or will it be a superhero likeness.

I initially assumed Rambo, although that doesn't tie in with arm 4.

Marauders box before this summer ,
Minutemen probably this year,
female Foxtrot ranger soon-ish

Well, the Blackjack seems hackable from the profile, so that's new for Ariadna. Lo-Tech may be related to this.

Also Unknown Ranger is an ARM 4 LI model. Tesium is a strong drug.

The only thing safe to say about the Unknown Ranger is I think we can cut off the idea of it being a cowboy-ish model.

The unit motto is "Old Rangers don't die, they just regroup in Hell and come back to finish the fight". That suggests that the model/unit is intended to be a military themed unit.

Female Foxtrot Ranger better not suck. Cheesecake is for dessert, not combat.

Well, I've preordered my copy of HSN3. The Onyx video has got me all hot and bothered.

The old Female Foxtrot wasn't too cheesecake.

The females in the current line for USAriadna are definitely not.

I don't think the Uknown Ranger is going to be a unit/group of guys.

It will probably be a 1 man show. Rambo, Chuck Norris, Grizzled Vet, etc...

Yeah. She absolutely was. Bared midriff with a camo cloak wrapped over her arm and wacky pigtails and a 'barracks room poster pinup pose'. The male version of the same unit is covered in camo paint on all bare skin, but not her.

The females in the current line for USAriadna are definitely not.

Well considering there's 4 females in the current USARF line(3 Grunt sculpts and the Maverick/dismounted Maverick), only one is actively firing her weapon and all were given the conscious design decision to remove the plate carrier vests on the Grunts that the male counterparts have to instead do what amounts to "push-up webbing" on all of them--and actually ADDED that same webbing when the male Maverick we got concept art of is essentially just wearing a jacket and a motocross helmet?

Not really willing to give them the benefit of the doubt there.

Nobody's saying they are going to be a unit...?

Characters tend to be tied to certain 'parts' of a faction or specific units. I kinda feel like them calling him "The Unknown Ranger" and having the patch say "Old Rangers don't die, they just go to Hell and come back to finish the fight"--coupled with the patch icon itself basically being a recolored version of the unit icon for Grunts(aka the "Line Rangers Regiments") and the Ranger Force icon as a whole...it's a way of them saying "This character is tied into the militaristic aspect of the faction, not the auxiliaries"(not the Marines[Devil Dogs], not the Desperadoes, and not the Hardcases).

So you didn't say that?

I must be tripping then because "model/unit" seems to reference a unit or a model.

Your definition of "cheesecake" and mine must be VERY different. That old Foxtrot looks nothing like Prodos or Toughest Girls stuff.

I'm sorry the grunt females aren't "actiony" posed enough for you and the males just look like they have packs on their front, not armor plates.

Sounds like you just needed to get some SJW out there.
