    Hey guys, since the other thread got kind of derailed (Quarians lol) I thought I'd start a Mass Workshop general.

    Turns out there's a lot of new releases coming out, including new omni-sculpts for some special characters for the Turians, Asari, and Hanar.

    Unfortunately, they're also raising prices again, so unless you can hack the mini-facturing programs, you're going to have to spend a lot of credits just to buy basic troops. Don't even get me started on the "haptic interface" gimmick either. They're just trying to get you to spend credits on stuff you don't need.

    Also, there's going to be a new starter set, called Battle for the Citadel. They might even be bringing back the ship-based game they had a while back, with the popularity of ship models. What was that called? Alliance Patrol? Corsair something?

    The new foundation and washes palette color chits are awesome, BTW.

    Did you see that new Volus hero unit they're releasing with the next codex? They call him the 'Airwalker' or something, and for some reason he doesn't need a suit to survive. I'm all for suspension of disbelief, but what a fucking Mary Sue!

    Rachni, they just tend to be more for the historical gamers. Plus, there's no special characters anymore - but you can use Asari commandos in the army, but only as an elites choice, and your queen can't do anything else while it controls her.

    I did hear a rumor they were making a comeback though.

    Besides, only powergamers take Shepard as an HQ, he honestly kills everything, and even if you take him down by calling in a collector particle beam or something, he still has the resurrect ability. Shitsux.

    Playing a STG army and winning should be ranked alongside achievements like playing 4 chess games against 4 people and winning all of them.
    You can't just rush the enemy lines with all your troops like some krogan army.

    Samara has got to be the worst special in the game. She doesn't follow commands from the HQ, has mediocre biotics, and you constantly have to make morality rolls.

    If you want a biotic heavy character, take Jack or Morinth. Liara isn't as good as she used to be, they gave here some kind of infiltrate ability or something.

    Problem is that if you spread your forces too thin and a couple of units get wiped out the collective processing is disrupted, weakening you quite a bit.

    Ignore the Colossi and focus on the infantry. Make sure you take upgrades which decrease their shields quickly - Geth have mediocre toughness and a shit armour save. Without shields they get torn up by any decent Anti-infantry fire. Or, take a detachment of Quarian allies and spam AI hack.

    You know what fucking sucks at the minute, my Volus list.

    Biotic's are shit, their tech units are really expensive I can hardly afford them and their troop choices can only move once every other turn due to the out of breath rule.

    I mean they gain access to mercs, which gives them basic troop choices from a lot of armies, but it doesn't make up for the lack of good elite choices.

    You're just going to have to accept the fact that your army will suck. The whole point of a Volus army is that they allow you to take a mishmash of units from different books all in the one army. The Volus themselves are just to provide your mercenaries some buffs. Trying to play Volus only lists would be like trying to play a Geth list with nothing but combat drones. The work as part of a full army, but an army of nothing but them will get destroyed every time.

    It's nothing serious, they just don't want people intentionally infecting them. It's like those psychos with aids who go around having sex with as many people as they can.

    The fact that the Citadel even cares at all might actually be a good sign.

    "Fleet" is kind of a strong word. If they'd tried to attack the Citadel with it, the defending ships would have torn it to shreds. It was mostly a response crew that the Alliance scrambled to help.

    It's a Frigate. Sure, a powerful one that can take on a Cruiser, but see it going up against a Turian Dreadnought for only slightly more points. Normandy is paste.

    It's not like they have a combat shuttle, so succeeding with the boarding test is fucking impossible.

    Cyberwarfare, especially if you are playing Quarian or Geth, can easily disable the shuttle long enough to blow it up.

    Are carriers any good? I've heard mixed reports on them. It seems unlikely that humans would develop an entire military doctrine that nobody else ever heard of.

    hey guys have you heard?

    They are actually launching a new pack.

    Shepard's Army

    He can field Blue Suns, Alliance, Cerberus, Geth, Rachni, Krogan, Asari, Turian and Quarian armies!

    provinding that you field a related hero with them.
    -Zaeed Massani (Blue Suns)
    -Urnot Wrex (Krogan)
    -Tali'Shepard vas Normandy (Quarians ...wait, what?!)
    -Samara/Morinth (Asari)
    -Rachni Queen (Rachni)
    -Legion ("True" Geth)
    -Miranda/Jacob Taylor (Cerberus)
    -Garrus Vakarian "Turian Rebel"(Turian mercs)

    Seriously, GODMODE Mary Sue much?

    The only balancing is that you can deploy Citadel Spectres against them for free.

    The logic goes like this: Why bet everything on one dreadnought when you can have a thousand fighters flying around?

    Seems silly to me, I mean, you take out the carrier and its fighters go with it!

    Again, that's only if they haven't already turned off your targeting systems. The Normandy is as bad as the Shepard special character.

    They apparently did. They use missile massacre on everything now.

    They also have a different defensive doctrine. They dont keep garrisons everywhere, only tokens, but their main fleet immediately recaptures it, destroys the assiliant and leads the counterattack. Its all about fluidity and dynamic strategy.

    Except the carrier is out of the range. And when you try to shoot it, its fighters and frigate escort pummels you silly.

    And even if you manage to immobolize it its fighters will kill you off.

    Costwise:

    Dreadnaught > carrier + fighter squadron + frigate escort.

    If you don't like the Normandy, don't play games involving it.
    Besides, for the price of the Normandy, you can get a fairly large army.

    Anyone can field the Normandy and call it human with allies.

    They are Gearing up for some big event.

    Rumor has it that it's the Reapers, seriously, they are actually putting a MADE UP faction from Shepards nightmares.
    They are going to use Biggass ships that can take a fuckton of damage and on the ground they either use Geth or mass Husks.

    Rumor has it that the Reapers carry not one but EIGHT! that's right 8 super Thanix cannons in it's tentacles, they don't even need to be IN FRONT OF YOU TO AIM.

    Also they apparently will USE BIOTICS? WTF?! Imagine that fucker spamming singularity, only its FLEET EATING SIZE
