Will any more units stats be released before August?

[Turtle]

Just wondering if any more unit stats will be released before the August release?

I was hoping the basic PAMI unit stats would be released, and hopefully hoppers for arachnids.

I really hope so, I would love to see Cougars added to the list, and some officers. Oh and you don't need to do hoppers or any other bugs or skinnies certainly not anything like venerables.

Maybe in signs and portents if they do more previews.

You could still use the existing stats for any troop type I suppose. Going by the LAMI, Skinnie and Arachnid cards in S+P the various scores aren't going to change much (at least not for the ones we've seen) and the weapons and special characteristics are easy enough to work out by using the released ones as a guide, at least until the official ones appear. The only big change seems to be the way that heavy armour and large bugs are treated, along with anti-armour weapons. There's probably rules changes for flying and tunneling (don't know if bugholes will still exist and I expect that there will be some technological or psionic means to detect tunneling bugs) and it looks like all of the traits and skills for officers and troops are being removed (don't know how psionics are going to work with EVO) along with any differentiation between the values of officers/NCOs/Sgts etc.

At least in the basic rules.

Might shove my possible/probable stats about the PAMI/Marauders and the remaining bugs here later this week. Of course I might well be told to shove them somewhere else

Put them up and see what happens, I would avoid doing any traits / skills or flying. At least untill the BF: Evo main rule book comes out as that may / will give us some clue as to whats happeneing with them. Given the way Grizzlies and Tankers have been changed it looks like the bigger / harder the unit the more it is tweaked, but then we have only been given those 2 big / hard units (which we already had rules for) its maybe a bit early to jump to conclusions.

The PAMI are something I really wanting to get hold of, esp as they should get fire teams

A wave 2 that I would like to see would be something like this.

MI.

PAMI - (With fire teams, 1 special weapon per team - including flamers and pee wee)
CHAS (or Ape)

Bugs.

Blaster bugs, Firefries The Acid shooting ones (2 of the 3).
Hoppers would be nice but I am sure we will have to wait for the Advanced rules and air combat before they appear.

Skinnies

Milita (some what similar to the LAMI, maybe with fire teams as in the original SST they can be fielded in very small numbers).
Venerables, a powerfull unit able to take on the Grizzlies, and forth.

Forth

Who knows..... maybe Optimus Prime :lol:

Wave 2 will be 1 unit per race unless they decide to change release system big time.

So far only release schedelude seen points toward ape marauder being in wave 2 also.
