I'd like to see a race that is somewhat avian in nature. Not humanoid, and a lot of flying units. Give my future Nighthawks some more targets.

Of course, I'm not sure how to make that an army with lots of options and flexibility, which is part of what I love about the MI and now the Skinnies. They look sweet!

You know what would be a really cool army. Space Lizards! :lol: Seriously though whatever Mongoose comes up with i'm sure it will be original and very cool.

How about the Zorn?

Actually, I know what it's going to be - Space Mongooses (Mongeese?)!!!! What better for MP to publish!

Actually, I think another humanoid race would be great. I really like the GW Tau, and a high-tech caste society would be interesting. Perhaps combine the best of both worlds? How about humanoids that use tons of robotic prosthetics?

If you want cool and in depth ideas for alien races, ask Mr Evil, he should be a game designer at mongoose or something, tons of creative races and plus, who else do you know who has designed a race and then had it stolen by GW? :wink:

Really? Care to tell us what race? Seems unlikly.
 
I know who the new race will be! look at the top of this photo, it's the...Eldar! :lol:

okay they could be skinnies too!
 
Oh, Rooster, I'm not sure you'll ever fully appreciate the sacrifice I make for your education here and now:

GW = Games Workshop

Out of respect for Mongoose that's all I'm putting here, Google can teach you more.

Good album, rage against the machine :wink: :lol:
Good empowering music! Anyway, HAVE YOU NEVER HEARD OF GW?! I'm going to guess you dont have a large wargaming background (not that thats a bad thing, cos mongoose is so much better value and quality). Yes GW is evil, but you guys in the US have it off better, GW in the UK seems to hate their customers like mad. Anyway, I get the feeling mongoose are now actually trying to compete (armybooks :roll: why not expansions? :roll: ). But I feel they will succeed. Make consumer stores like GW, Mongoose workshop!
 
yeah, I started with Mechwarrior, which is a shameful and failing mini game. (But people still buy em' for the looks :roll: ) Anyways, there's no reason to worry about other companies, mongoose owns em' all! :twisted:
 
Wow, I just got a look at the skinny codex, and it's really hard to believe what armies people think they will take. Mass Drivers are absolutely absurd. Heavy lasers are just... damn... they should just be called the magic line of death.

And boy are skinnies talented! They have more talents than the Bugs and MI put together, and they can be ridiculously strong.

My personal favorite leader now is the Warchief. Just wait until you see his rules. They're absurd. The Tyrant on the other hand, is gonna be a bit of a pain for whoever uses him. The Leader of the slaves is going to be REALLY tough to kill :), so he might be good just for command (although, the warchief is probably better as you'll all see_

I think everyone will REALLY enjoy the lists. They're not as different as mongoose makes them sound, but they should all be competitive. I'd say they're more like the differences between pathfinders and MI, than being as varied as Marauders and Light MI.
