I love the names of the some of the new miniatures.  The Glock Roach and Harangutan are just brilliant.  Can't wait to see some pictures.

also the cover image? Beautiful work, i'm really looking forward to see the new minis. I'm surprised over and over again by how many new minis Andy Cooper makes, the man is a sculpting machine, i'm sure the sculpts are top!

Not the cover image. Just sketches for the characters. I actually have two friends working in that capacity for Supersystem. Kim also designed the popular Battering Ram figure, which can make a nasty pulp robot!

I picked up a copy of the rules too.  Been wanting to have a read of them for some time, thankfully now its available as a pdf and I don't have to pay the huge shipping costs to get it!

Downloaded the PDF of the rules this weekend.

There is a lot to absorb here. Anyone have any idea how much it's changed from the first version?

Just about all of our new releases are done by Bob Naimsith. We love Andy too, though!

Well, a lot changed! Hopefully to your liking and for the better!

In short:

--Faster iniaitive mechanic

--Change to Super-Attributes and Rule of 6 (all 6's now count as 2 goals and super attributes allow re-rolls)

--Dice Pool Caps based on total cost of a model to allow greater balance.

Hope this helps!
