AMG live stream round up - 12th APRIL 2022
Updated: Apr 13, 2022
Today's live stream was a painting session, where a Black Sun enforcer model was painted up in a pretty nice purple and gold style.
We learnt that the Black Sun Enforcer unit is going to be a close range threat. We already know that as well as being available to the Shadow Collective Battle force, the Black Sun can be taken by the Empire and CIS as well.
Their standard ranged attack will be 1 black 1 white - at what I assume will be Range 2. So they will be acting in a similar way to Fleet Troopers and B2 Battle droids. They also have the new keyword, Independent. We already know that the Pyke unit has Independent: Dodge 1 which means that if the Pyke unit is not issued an order, they receive a dodge token. My guess is that the Black Sun Enforcer unit will have Independent: Aim 1, meaning they will get an aim token if they are not issued an order. This will really help them with their move, shoot combination - something quite important for a (potentially) Range 2 unit. It was also confirmed they do have other keywords on their unit card. If I were a Sabaac player, I would bet that the Black Sun Enforcers will have Precise 1 and Self-Preservation.
We already know that they are likely to have 2 possible Heavy Weapon Options: Mag-Det Enforcer and the Scatter Gun Enforcer. The two Heavy Weapon troopers are likely the models on the left and right respectively of the front row in the image above. The Mag-Det Enforcer looks like he is holding some form of grenades and we know that Scatter Guns are short range weapons - so both of these increase the strength of the short range attack pool.
It was strongly hinted that the A-A5 Speeder truck will be available for the Shadow Collective Battle force. We know from previously released images that a mercenary version of the card (in fact 2 copies) will be available in the Upgrade Card Pack 2. To read more about this pack follow this link to my information page on it:
The Rebels will certainly retain access to it, and so the assumption is that the Shadow Collective will fill the final slot on the A-A5's updated unit card. The combination of the Black Sun Enforcers and the Party Bus jumping out to throw lots of spicy dice sounds really interesting.
The dates of the next Ministravaganza (AMG's festival of miniatures held online where they show off a lot of the upcoming releases for their games) were confirmed as 9-11th June. They confirmed that Ewok news would be part of their Legion offering.
