June Preview #1: Tohaa Nikoul Ambush Unit
Our first catch of the month by MiniWargaming: The Tohaa Nikoul Ambush unit! What a bad-ass looking model. We’ve seen the renders, but it looks even better painted! And MWG has released a tiny tidbit of information on the model:
Apart from having the characteristic Tohaa Symbiont Armour, it has the Sapper skill, Viral Sniper Rifle, the Minelayer skill and Multispectral Visor Level 1 (which it’s even better in Infinity 3rd Edition).
That is exciting news, right?! Another insight at the changes of 3rd edition! And with such a great looking model, the Tohaa players will have something beautiful to look forward to when they bring it onto the table!
Interesting, I had thought there was a rumor it’d see Ambushed Camouflage.
Regardless, Sapper’s Mimetism+Cover combined with MSV1 is a pretty handy combo for a sniper and should be a nice alternative to compete against the common ‘Gao-Rael Sniper+2 Kamael cheerleaders’ fireteam.
Also interesting that MSV1 will see some type of buff.
Is MSV a tiered skill that can be downgraded? I wonder if they mean to buff all MSV units in general or only those with the MSV1. If not tiered, MSV2 would probably be unaffected, but MSV3 does currently read ‘works exactly the same as the previous levels but…’
