Gee, I'm away for a couple months to take care of "real world" problems, and WZ gets restarted! I'll have to take time off more often  ;)
I'm definitely excited about this. I like the visual transition better for this one than I did between 1st and 2nd ed.s; a lot of the 2nd ed models really turned me off.
Bhood, DL, look fine; I like the new high-tech Cybertronic look, kind of makes them distinct, and fits with their corporation and fluff IMO.
I don't mind the Bauhaus look, but then again, I'm not really much of a Bauhaus player so...
As a diehard Capitol player, that is probably what will make of break this for me, when/if we get Capitol units and concepts.
Either way, I'll probably support the project, and if no Caps, then get get a box of Bhood or Cybers.

Just wait on the Capitol front... It's gonna be worth it. :)

Anyway, for those of you who have not or cannot play...

Here's a video I made of gameplay. We slip up here and there, but it is the first time we played the Beta Rules, so it comes with warts and all!  :)

Strictly unofficialy, this one I might add!

Only 10k for plastic now..

and the 20k for Capitol I'd love to see what they put in the starter box for Capitol

I wonder what the 65k stretch goal is?

New poses of the Hussars, the shoulder pads looks strange, like skateboard protection on the arms :-\

Those are upper arm guards....I think shoulder pads have to be on the shoulder

That is my main critic about Bauhaus design from the beginning.

The pads slide down the arm. It looks like they have done it to keep the arms flexible (separate parts) and to keep production easy.
But frankly it's a bad idea, shoulder pads should be pads on the shoulder. This ruins in my opinion the whole design and the rest of the design is awesome.

Ditto.

It is not functional; if real I would imagine the soldiers pulling these things off due to the cumbersome design. I imagine a 2-part armor, one piece that actually sits on the shoulder and the other sort of "hinged" that covered the upper arm.

Just my thoughts

IMHO, is a better solution, I'm tired of all these big shoulder pads every where... The new one look better, more logical and with a real function (protect the upper side body, the old protect what? By air assault?

Hope capitol design will be revised like cybertronic and bauhaus

Bah, shoulder pads are just aesthetics. It looks cool, that's why they're there. You can't say that the MC shoulder pads do any good. Why don't modern day infantry have anything resembling them then?
