The OP could probably use a quick rundown of the different factions and how they play. Other than that, it looks pretty solid.

And I'm just going to relink this thing since it was the last major topic in the old thread:

For those who weren't at Invasion, the first set of named characters are up for pre-order on Hawk's site.

It's nice to see all of them painted up, but, man, Foley has a really garish color scheme. I was actually a little surprised that they didn't show off the remaining special characters at Invasion. I'm kind of looking forward to when Caine gets released so I have an excuse to run a stupid flying robot circus with my PHR. We got new command options instead so it's not like I'm about to complain.

Yeah, the new type-4 command unit was a little disappointing, but I can't blame Hawk for wanting to get more mileage out of that sculpt. It's a great model, I just would have rather seen something new. I feel similarly about the new Shaltari grav-tank unit. It will probably be nice to have, but it's nothing special. On the other hand, the Scourge crab and UCM super gunship are seriously cool.

I am really looking forward to when they start pumping out those extra infantry options. The only ones shown so far are the power armored UCM troopers and the little Scourge flying monsters and they're only in the design stages at the moment, but I feel like there's some breathing room for most of the factions. Especially for PHR and Shaltari as they each only have two infantry units.

It's nice to see that Hawk is doing well enough to continue expanding the range while working on a brand new game.

Well, one of the Hawks (either Simon or Dave) said that the Hera, the heavy jump-walker the second PHR named character uses, will probably come out as an independent model as using the sculpt for just her mech would be wasteful.

I figured something like that would happen eventually and they're right to do it. It could just end up as another generic command option and that'd be totally fine.

Some rumors from that weirdo at faeit/nafthkakja:

quote:

UCM- Infantry
-2 power suit variants; one anti-tank and the other anti-air. These are like mortar teams.
-The third one takes a unique position of a Heavy Choice with Heavy Railguns. Think 2, 3 man squads
I may have some things mis-interpreted here regarding the UCM. My notes got a little jumbled here. There are three new infantry units though, and the Heavy Infantry choice with Heavy Railguns is in there.

PHR- Infantry
-A specialized ultra elite 1 man infantry base who commands drones. Apparently the models are very dynamic and there was some excitement over this one. These guys specialize in clearing buildings.
-This one is based off the immortal longreach rifle. Instead of 1 longreach rifle per base, this squad will have 5 longreach rifles per base. With shaped charges and a 24" range vs counter measures, these guys will be very cool.
-the last one is a jump/jet pack unit. These guys are not as good as sirens, but come with twin guns, and the ability to jump across streets from one building to the other.

Shaltari- Infantry/Vehicles
-Specialists heavy warsuits that are too big to go into buildings. 2x the size of normal warsuits and are considered small vehicles. There are two variants of this model, a flamer based one, and an anti-tank version.
-a new slave race that will be a cheap infantry choice for Shaltari. They are not as strong as the standard shaltari infantry, but come cheap, but must be taken in squads of 4 bases.The cool things about these guys is they have been retrofitted with teleportation devices and shoulder mounted guns.

Scourge-infantry
-Flying creatures (the dragon like things we saw in the concept art), are small flying like prowlers. Meaning they are move quickly and have a CC anti-air attack. They come 8 to a blister.
-Ground Based Creature that is ravager sized. It was 2-3 per blister on this.
-CC Destroyer that sound devastating in CQB. It will be interesting to not have the guns that I so much very like, and instead rely upon their Close Quarter fighting.

Resistance- I believe there are supposed to be 3, but only two were in my notes. Either I missed this one or we skimmed over it during the conversation.
-Quad Bikes that are small vehicles for scouting.
-Small vehicle armed with grenade launchers.

I'm down for some jetpack cyborgs.

The new erratas look pretty solid. UCM Falcons and Scimitars might actually see some use. PHR got a lot of good point decreases too. It's pretty cool to see that Hawk is willing to make small changes like these. None of them are drastic and most of them are just points changes.

Those are great. It's going to be interesting to see how that scheme translates onto the robots though. They're a bit more fiddly and I'm guessing it'll be harder to get the stencils on them, especially on the legs. You'd probably be better off painting them before assembly.

Yeah, the card buildings put out by Hawk are actually pretty nice for what they are. They're nothing special, but they're fairly sturdy if you glue or staple them together. The only issue is that then they can't be broken down for easier storage.

Are there any UCM or PHR models that are just huge stinkers rules-wise? By the same token, are there any UCM or PHR models that are essentially autoinclude (either as part of faction design or because they just happen to be way too good)?

Edit: reason for asking: is there anything that I shouldn't fall in love with aesthetically because it will only let me down, or any models that I will definitely be taking so I had better learn to like the look of?

There was a FAQ pretty recently that addressed a lot of the problem units in the game. For example, the UCM gunship gained evasion countermeasures and a points decrease while the PHR dropships were discounted across the board. Hawk seems to want every model to be usable which makes a lot of sense. This means you're free to buy whatever catches your interest.

As far as auto-includes go, there's not much other than basic infantry. Yeah, each faction's standard tanks and anti-air are going to feature in most lists, but they can be worked around if you want. Infantry are an absolute must though given how objectives work in this game.

Edit: If I were to pick up a blister of Raven Type As, Raven Type Bs, or Falcons, just to paint, which of the three would be the easiest to fit into a fledging starter-box-based UCM force if I end up going that route?

Well, the Raven A's are infantry transports so you'd be able to use them, but you'd have to switch out the APCs and their transport to do it. The B's would need other models since they can only transport the war buggies and an artillery unit right now. Falcons are just taken on their own so they'd probably be your best bet and give you some sort of air support. They got a boost recently and are actually worth taking now.

Yeah, you'd totally want to replace the APCs with aerial transports. I should have mentioned that that's pretty much standard for all armies right now. I'm not really sure what they'd need to do to make regular APCs more attractive. Most of them carry more infantry, but they're not nearly as flexible.

BULBASAUR posted:

I'm really excited for more infantry across all the different factions. I love tanks, but having different troops that can take on vehicles owns. The game is all about buildings anyway, so it'll make it more interesting.

It seemed like Hawk has some cool ideas for expanding infantry a bit. I remember that they're looking at power armored UCM dudes, little Scourge monsters, more various cyborgs for PHR, and who knows what the gently caress for Shaltari. Infantry right now basically come in two versions, basic guys and CQB specialists. It'll be cool to see more variations like those Resistance bikers.

I know they're planning on showing off the spaceship game at Salute, but has anything been said about when we might see these new units?

Alright, after what little details we got on the spaceship game, I'm kind of excited. The models are gorgeous and the rules sound interesting. I'm definitely going to wind up buying in at some point.

Beyond that, the infantry previewed at the show look pretty cool. I especially like the space-welder UCM dudes and the idea that they'll be adding more Shaltari slave races into the mix. The PHR sniper unit is really bland, but there's probably still a couple of other units coming their way so I hope they'll be more unique.

Is there a way to get the resin building tiles without ordering them from the UK? I'm calculating how much it'd cost me to make a building and it's pretty steep, but it appeals to me in a fundamental way as I love building stuff from kits.

You probably don't want to get resin buildings from Hawk. They're really really expensive for what they are and you can probably find substitutions pretty easily. It's already been mentioned that N scale model train stuff is equivalent to 10mm. I haven't looked into it myself, but it may be worth checking out.

E: can you make a UCM force without sabre tanks? I really don't like the turret arm. Maybe if I proxied it...

You can, you'd just need to take Katana light tanks instead. Though the weird turret does actually serve a purpose other looking funky. It has in-game rules that allow it to peek over terrain or other vehicles so proxying might be a little difficult.

If anyone has questions about list building, check out the free army builder thing. It lays everything out in a pretty clear way though some things aren't explicitly said. For example, a single battlegroup can't be over 1/3 of your total points. This is flagged if it happens, but the software won't tell you why it's flagged. That's all covered within the actual rulebook.

The plastic walkers are perfectly fine. The plastic PHR infantry look like they were assembled out of tubes in the form of a very static and vaguely man-like shape.

Well, it doesn't really help against hordes since you declare the actual model you're shooting rather than squads. Unless they have 2+ damage points for some reason, I guess. It's more meant to wreck heavier units (like your walkers :v:

I'm leaning towards Captain because of how many options are going to be in the kits. I don't know what the standard fleet size will be, but I'm guessing the starter sets are going to be good ways to expand considering how many options are in there. I'm just not particularly interested in having a bunch of Scourge ships I won't use. There are ways around that though.

I'm holding off for now to wait and see what the stretch goals and bolt-ons end up expanding to. It'll be a little interesting to see what they set them at considering how quickly it's been funded. I'm hoping for some PHR though they haven't been shown at all yet. Hawk has mentioned they're going to rely on stealth and broadsides and that's pretty much all that's known.

Hawk have posted a second update basically saying yeah, they've been totally overwhelmed by the incredible pace of pledges and are recalibrating their unlocks. They've confirmed that the PHR are virtually certain to have been unlocked by now.

I twitch a little at the three Shaltari cruisers though. I was hoping they'd get 7-8 playable classes like the UCM and Scourge - anyone else getting flashbacks to Battlefleet Gothic's Eldar and Orc fleets? Those eventually got filled out after release, but on launch they were pitiful.

I'm reasonably sure those aren't the only three that can be built. From what I remember, the Shaltari and PHR fleets aren't nearly as finalized as the UCM and Scourge so this may just be renders of what's ready to show.

A decent graphic really should have been in place at the start, but then they really seem to have underestimated the demand for this. They didn't even expect to get to PHR until week three of the campaign and don't have finalized renders to show off. Not that a text list is particularly difficult to read, people just like graphics.

Thanks for wading through the comments section for us. You're a brave goon. That stuff sheds a little bit of official light on things.

In other news, looks like they're over �240,000 now and they seem to have updated the stretch goals a little.
�250k - Kickstarter Exclusive Paper Radar Map (Bolt-on)
�275k - Miniature Unlock to be announced
�290k - Accessories Unlock to be announced

�310k - Miniature Unlock to be announced
�325k - Miniature Unlock to be announced
�350k - High Rank Backers - 1 Free PHR Frigate Sprue (makes 4 Frigates)

I'm guessing those miniature unlocks are going to be the Kickstarter exclusive battlecruisers, but they still have those listed as time based rewards. Whatever the hell that means. I don't know. I guess we'll find out in a couple of days or so when they hit �275,000

Edit:
For people too lazy to go and check out the Kickstart for information about the bases:

I'm really liking this idea and I'm all for reducing and streamlining bookkeeping. If it wasn't for these bases the game would be a giant mess of tokens to keep track of orbital level, energy spikes, and damage. No thanks. This'll let players tell at a glance what's going on with their ships.

Fun thought. The Warpath Kickstarter was a 30 day campaign that raised $485,000. Covert to GBP that is about �315,000.

Dropfleet has been running for 5 days and is over �263,000 with 29 days to go! I'm kinda wondering where this is going to finish up...

I'm pretty certain we'll get to the �350,000 stretch goal, but I'm not counting on the �500,000 one. We'll see though, it's still early and there'll be another surge in the last two days.
