  1. Not even slang word. If you look at the inserts in the old book that talk about the tech specs for CAVs, the Breeder is the fusion generator's official name.
  2. This is the kind of unit that is just BEGGING for a squad of light infantry in Centipedes. Nothing says "fringe but scrappy" like fatigues and hand portable LBGs.
  3. I want to say that vehicles, especially grav vehicles, look defensive enough since they can pop-up from behind 1" cover and have to be actually pushed out of positions (unless you want to set overwatch and shoot at them while they're up, with all that that implies). I want to say that CAVs with Rugged who are fast enough to position around cover should be able to break combat and recover enough to get back in play. I've theorycrafted plenty along those lines, but not been able to get the games in to confirm it or shoot it down.
  4. I want to get to use the campaign rules more, because I feel like that is part of the answer. If you know you're going to have, for instance, a best of 5 of the maps, and those are going to be using the same pool of models (which will partly repair) then it might encourage pushing your objectives over just hunting the enemy models. Then again, it might also encourage spending your whole pool on a heavy kill list to deplete the opponent's pool in match one. idk
  5. That's fantastic. I have my bases magnetized, but would never have considered also securing the CAVs to the base with them. I love that pattern on the Imperator, too. Great work all around.
  6. I took the paper ones on the downloads page, pulled them into paint, and printed them top-to-top against a mirrored copy of themselves, then cut them out and folded them into standing triangles. All paper, looks snazzy, easy to pick up because it isn't laying down.
  7. I'd say any of the ones whose feet fit onto pegs on the base instead of needing cut free, preferably in standing rather than walking poses. Off the top of my desk, Imperator (Rach), and Javelin / Dervish / Enforcer (Adon) fit that bill.
  8. If a model is in 1" of blocking cover, the rockets hit the cover instead of the model because they don't drop directly down. I know that's a point that CAVBoss had drilled into us previously, and I think that's still the explanation. I /think/ that the only things that modify the combat roll are crits, as you guessed, and salvo fire (so firing 4 rockets at a target could either roll 4 times looking for a 6, or once looking for a 3).
  9. Jon has since said that the task based free actions did not make the cut. Things like "I'm running 4 King Cobras. They're technically a recon squad, but basically TC2 Attack units that always get a free lock" were too much. I think that became the thing where APA and ECM get to stay on from one round to the next.
  10. Would be a great way to illustrate "Rat" infantry, too.
  11. The datacard stats are also in the Force Manager program, but that is as close to a database as I am aware. If there is an active database I would also be thrilled to know about it. For the vehicle (and I'm assuming CAV) images, the ones that don't have color data cards generally don't have known images, BUT: CAVBoss has a lot of art and modelling done for unreleased things. He wanted to transition to monthly releases more than a year ago, and was just able in August due to the complications in getting Dualcast started. Some of those were modelled on stream by Chris Lewis and are probably on youtube. If there is something that you are particularly curious about, CAVBoss has always been very approachable, you could send him a message asking if it has art. One other thing to note: The faction model list sheets will tell you if a model is a variant of another. This can be handy if what you're looking for is something like the Pilum, which we know is a Javelin with medium guns (and then find that the Kestral has medium guns that visually work with the chasis and are of the same faction).
  12. yes, please share. Black Knights especially have my interest. lol
  13. Will this have a submission site like last year? Or will you take submissions in another manner?
  14. How long is the Warden B? Compared to, say, a Commander2's grav emitters, for instance?
