Lists are the contents of Kaldstrom, Beyond Kaldstrom, and the Dire Foes set minus the Adepticon exclusive Wandering Monk and the Kunai Solutions ninja.
Carrying over from the other page, since it just auto-appended.

Damn the miniatures are gorgeus, every single one of them. Securitate feuerbach...finally...but could this mean no SWC box securitate/grenzer for Tunguska.

I wish his profile would be better, the mini should be rather eye catching on the table.
I like the shotgun change.
More cheap terrain is always welcomed.
I don't have anything concrete on change of the critical hits. I usually have absurd level of misfortune on my ARM rolls, so it's not going to change anything.
Everything is better with remote presence.
Hello Aleph!

No more for a while. Bostria was cagey about the release of the Code One ruleset. Maybe they intend to time its release with the release of Kåldstrøm in late April -- or whenever it is possible to release it. Bostria did say 100 page rulebook,a nd implied that it was extensively illustrated with examples..

...Adds Nokken, Vargar, Boyg, Infirmarers, Knight of Justice to the Pan-O list of SKUs.
Maybe some (a lot? all?) of the new SKUs will be 'locked' into a box?
Most likely, CB announced in the KS update today that Spain is now on lockdown for non-essential businesses, so the people that can are doing dev work from home, but obviously no casting or filling orders will happen for at least a few weeks
Just skimmed through it, but is there any real difference between this and the Operation rules they've done in the past? Seems like Infinity with just the Common Skills list.

I'm someone who actually likes the idea the two levels of rules but I'm not a fan of a tripartite system assuming what I saw in the video last week was correct and/or I didn't misunderstand it. I was hoping that what came with the operation box was the lower level of rules (complexity) and not a third step that can segway to either.

It's just a Quick-Start guide, why would you assume it's a 3rd system?
Of the 20 page PDF, 12 pages are fluff/pictures/adverts aimed at new players. Only 8 of the pages relate in any ways to gameplay and 2 of those are a step-by-step walkthrough of mission 1 from any of the previous 2-player sets where it's 3 basic guys vs 3 basic guys. Actually, it's SO basic that after reading through it there's almost nothing that couldn't have applied equally to N3 or even N2, this almost could have been fully appropriate for 2005. It's not a "tripartite" system, this guide is just the absolute barest of minimums to get a new player to understand the very fundamentals of Infinity. No word as far as I can tell if the box sets will have a full Code1 rulebook in them or just this Quickstart one and a link to the actual C1 rulebook pdf.
As for what's in those 8 pages of quickstart rules: Not much. We already knew that dodging in the active turn allows you to move 2" if successful just like in ARO, the only new thing I found is you can squeeze through gaps/along ledges as long as they're half your base wide. That's pretty great, no more blocking bikes or TAGs from an alleyway just because the corners of 2 buildings are 53mm apart, and 40MM bases can now move through most doors
