Sure. That's essentially the probably with CJC. The links are dated and unexciting so at some point you look at your unlinked army and just ask why you're denying yourself Intervetors, Morlocks, and Zeros.

Honestly, depending on the timeframe you're talking about...it also has to deal with models and releases. The other reason CJC tended towards popularity is that for awhile CB was foisting them as the Infinity Week army set.

I'm really surprised no one has leaked the Tanko stats yet.

After the JSA initial leak CB are probably clamping down on what warcors are told.

Yeah, and I really don't think Warcors should leak. But I thought the book had been on sale to people at an event a week or two ago? Was I wrong about that. Automatically Appended Next Post: jake wrote: -Loki- wrote:After the JSA initial leak CB are probably clamping down on what warcors are told.

It's for sale first at Adepticon, which is next weekend. We should be seeing some pretty in depth stuff after that though, I'm wanting to see the StarCo links myself

Ah. I guess I got confused. Automatically Appended Next Post: Oh! I wonder if JSA will get access to the Specialist version of Saito Togan. That would be pretty great. I always want to take Saito, but I usually end up taking an Assault Hacker Ninja instead.

Yeah, we should see something from the JSA book Wednesday night (CST) at the earliest. I do't recall if I heard that the "Uprising" book will be available at adepticon. It is part of a pre-order package, so I suppose that it will.
Meh. I'll be spending next week-end watching the March Madness. Even though I am a UVA alum.  Nice to see a historic game. Not so nice my team was the one.
If the usual schedule occurs, the "Uprising" book should generally available by mid-April. I wonder when the Army Builder will update.

I was thinking about the Daiyokai in comparison the the Sogarat and realized that I wish they were in the opposite armies.
JSA could really benefit from the Sogarat's long range anti-armor firepower, and could easily suck up the extra 5-8 pts. MAF is already great at destroying TAGs and HI, but could really use a good mobile mid ranged anti-infantry fire platform, and would really appreciate saving 5-8 points.

March 23rd is the slated release date for it, per Warstore.
They've now taken to setting the date of release/receipt from CB on the product pages. Warstore's a distributor(one of the bigger ones here in the US) and as such they get stuff a bit earlier. Always take a look there when you're wondering on release dates.
For example, the preorder period for Uprising ends soon--- but the scheduled release date is April 27th. Some people are getting upset about this over on the official forums since Adepticon visitors will have their book/ JSA boxes early...but that's the way it always goes with anything that gets a 'limited release' at an event first.

Related but not directly, The Warstore just posted this:
Once again, we are getting snow causing major shipping delays. We are not sure if we will be getting any deliveries to the warehouse today and are fairly certain that no deliveries will be going out today. We are keeping an eye on the weather. Please note that this storm is causing shipping delays all along the East Coast and in some cases may mean we have to go pick up a major release when it finally reaches the shipping hub on Friday. We will do our best to get orders out the door as we can!
So be warned that March's releases might be delayed as far as a week depending on this weather. They're a distributor as well so who knows how it could affect Stateside distribution.

I appreciate that that entire section of StarCo lacks models. Hopefully that means it will all become a reality relatively close together.

Cant do a thorough cross referebce against the old lists at work, but my gut tells me some of these profiles saw a points decrease, or they got more toys at the same price.
Can anyone confirm?

The only thing I've noticed (because of the whole JSA version thing) is that the Rui Shi in NA2 is +0.5 SWC. Oddly, its got a higher AVA in Ikari than it does in JSA. Automatically Appended Next Post: Another "hadn't noticed" thing. The Riot Grrls eat up a ton of SWC. This has literally never bothered me in Bakkunin, but it comes up REAL quick in a CJC Bakkunin hybrid list...
