Little short as in total lack of.

I'm thinking of making their Missile Launcher capable of firing autonomously targetting smart missiles tho, just in order to shoehorn at least one IF weapon in. As they have the Laser to give the Infantry an AV punch, the ML's not necessary for that role.

Now that you mention it, and having found some better pix, it does seem like. Haven't used tandem combo weapons yet I think, so am tempted to use it here just for the sake of "trying everything once".

I don't think there is any further limitations to IF apart from those mentioned on pg. 42. So you can fire over obstacles of any height and declare coordinates as near to an obstacle as you like. Of course common sense needs to be used if the terrain is fairly specific (say, having enclosed buildings or overhangs).

Looks good, I'm glad you used Infantry Bracing, the heavy weapons teams just screamed for it.

Tandem combo weapon will keep the cost of all those GL's down. I can see PIG squads being fielded by twos, one tasked to IF and the other to advance and engage.

At least they don't have a ruleset of their own yet, AFAIK...

Have too, although 1F only. Sorta thought these should be a little more limited than "usual" as the Pig Iron tech doesn't look quite as futuristic as some. Nothing to stop anyone from just taking the 2F either, of course.

There is, however, a related concern and an actual error in conjunction with the Battle Droids.

The error is that their minimum unit size should be listed at 6, not 5.

The concern is that, as the list doesn't have any cheapo matrix units to ad hoc pair with the BDs, you'd have to get some half a dozen Droids (each at ca. the cost of a grunt unit IIRC) just to be able to field them in the first place. Which many people probably aren't going to be doing.

Well, yes I suppose I could've...

Can't seem to shake the page 12 (first column, last paragraph) from my head. I assume it's been amended in the current version?

Anyway, as a stopgap measure before I upgrade, the hero cost for Battle Droid is +174. Makes a single BD pretty costly in pv sense to field, but at least this way you can if you want.

Doh, this is a missed erratum:

Page 12: under “Hero Cost”, replace the last phrase “…and no matrix quality frame may be made into a hero.” With “and matrix frames will pay a point cost premium to become heroes.”

Originally, I had envisioned matrix figures as being unable to be heroes, *but* this didn't fit the fluff of alot of backgrounds and severly limited flexibility of big frames.  That's why I opted instead for a higher point cost.

While +174 sounds like a huge amount, the tactical ability that comes with being able to move around independently and join and leave other units at will is very powerful for a survivable figure like the Wardroid.

Oh, I forgot to let y'all know: Pig Iron is cool with us posting official stats for their figs on the website, so I'm gonna make some pdfs that contain stats per tnjrp and pics of the appropriate figures.

Actually Demian pointed out how tough they are.

But I know first hand how infuriating it is to have all your squads being pinned down and broken by Matrix quality troopers who JUST WON'T LIE DOWN. Given that Standard Infantry are best kept in cover, this big guy will be excellent tactically, never flinching, not needing to hide, drawing fire while you set up your chain-gun teams.....

...and then, a heavilly armoured Matrix quality trooper in good cover is damn near impossible to dig out! This also I learned the hard way.

You managed to get Spriggan Miniatures to allow the offical use of their IP too? You sweet talker, you...

Noticed that Pig Iron don't recognize the effort in any way on their site... :?

They did ask me for copies of the pdfs to send to people who inquire about game systems with which to use their figures.
