Nothing super exciting there for me - maybe Zoe & pi well. The Tunguska stuff has overshadowed it a fair bit.

Should be a big June!

I'm not a big fan of the Hakims. Their aesthetic just doesn't really read as Haqqislam to me. The new Nasmats are OK I guess.

Hakim kind of look like they'd fit well in most armies.

Those closed battle lists look a bit light on actual doctors. Engineers too, hope the Guijia doesn't get E/M2'd

I only skimmed them but they seemed to have a Sophotect in about half of them eh? That ridiculous Aleph WIP 15 Doctor/Engineer

I don't play Yu Jing, so I'm not super familiar.

E: Only 2/5. But in one she is in a link!! Wow!

With the exception of Paramedic Tacbots, Sophie's the only doctor/engineer the ISS gets. She's not cheap, but she makes up for it with the insane flexibility.

Yeah of course, but in my experience the Sophotect usually would have bots to spread her further. I definitely wouldn't want to run a list where I rely on one (1) medikit.

Does anybody have any idea how tall a Blackjack is? I cant find a measurement for the model anywhere online.

It's pretty big, but I know that isn't very helpful. I'll see if I can get a measurement for you tonight during a game.

I am incredibly excited by these Securitate models and their lack of Combat Heels. I was already pretty pleased with Tunguska, this cements it even more firmly.

Are there pictures of the actual models anywhere? All I can find are the art renders. :(

I couldn't tell you exactly, but I think S5 comes up to his eye level. Def. bigger than his silhouette value.

Yan Huo are also taller than S5 when you add in their shoulder guns. But if it fits the volume it should be fine.

The pawsting business is tough work.
Did you have another accent color planned? OSL's lookin' good and the burnished metal is nice, but it could stand to have a couple of panels picked out in another color to give it some definition.

I'd go with doing some of the panels in black, leaving the machinery metal, and picking out a couple of details in orange, since that's both faction appropriate and will pop against your glowy bits.

There's a series of paragraphs each with a date, I'll check my copy later tonight to see if there's a timeline for you.

Optional narrative support packs for the next ITS

Decide whether you want to support Yu Jing, JSA, or Combined Army, and get a support bonus on your army list.

YJ: +1 SWC
JSA: Autowin initiative and Forward Deployment L1 on all your troops
Combined Army: +25 Army Points for your list.


Vanilla YJ and ISS, JSA, and vanilla Combined and sectorials are all stuck with their respective bonuses.

I've got a big tourney coming up that's using these rules.

My Caldeonians are sure going to love a near-guaranteed first turn and forward deployment across the board.

It's not actually forward deployment for JSA, your deployment zone is 4" bigger. Time to run some marauder links.

(Ignore my username on there, it's a requirement for the Oath Thread where I originally posted the pics)

Anyway, with Tunguska coming out soon, was finally time to paint up these models so I'm ready :D Big shout out to Signal for helping me come up with this color scheme. Pretty happy with how they're looking!

Next up, gotta hit my Kriza, my Grenzer, and my Szalamandra. Woooooo.
