October's Spectre Previews & ONI Mech Update

Hello Patrons

We hope you're enjoying the 2nd wave of Daughters of the Burning Rose minis this month, and we return again to give you another quick update on the ONI Mech. Short and sweet; It's Done, and should be on its way to your MMF library, Really Soon! Head down to the 2nd part of this post to see all the pretty renders!

But first, it's time to reveal the Unity Council's elite infiltration operatives...

The UC Spectres

Spectres are among the most elite and secretive military assets available to the Unity Council, equipped with cutting edge background-matching and thermal suppressing camouflage. Spectres are deployed on small scale black ops missions, and are capable of switching between battlefield roles with a fluidity that is unmatched by any other military force.

Trained and equipped for covert operations, defensive strike-and-fade ambushes, and lightning fast precision raids, there is little a Spectre isn't prepared to handle. Their multirole modular weapons make them highly effective at any engagement range, and are sometimes used in larger operations to supplement the effectiveness of regular UCMC units, emerging from the shadows, and then vanishing into thin air, before they are detected by either side.

Utterly dedicated to their position as the most secret, and elite branch of the UC military, a Spectre operative team can sow confusion and chaos behind enemy lines without their presence ever being confirmed. They stand just the other side of myth for the standard infantryman or woman of the PCR and UCMC alike.

We're very excited to bring back yet another iconic Afterlife unit. Making them modular with our Regiments line gives you the chance to field these elite troops once more, and cross compatible with so many other parts in our catalogue! We hope these teasers will fuel your imagination, while we put together our Multi-Shell breakdown and Everything you Get reveal post, next week!

The C-Spec ONI Mech

Here are some lovely renders of the final posed mech. Let us know what you think!

Multi-Shell Breakdown

There's quite a lot going on with this beast, so let's walk through what you're getting.

• A main body chassis and your choice of either an enclosed, integrated head shroud, or a poseable sensor pod, as "heads". The main body of the ONI Mech features our OGRE Suit joints - ball sockets for the arms and legs - as well as a pair of male Regiments arm joints at the front of the carapace. While the joints are the same, there is no intentional design compromise for cross-compatibility, meaning that while the original OGRE suit components can fit the joints, they may not allow for total interchangeability between the two platforms. Feel free to try it out though!

• Two pairs of pre-posed Multi-Shell legs in a static or more dynamic style. Each feature 6 shelled elements that allow you to tweak the poses!

• Two pairs of pre-posed Multi-Shell arms, in either a compact shooting pose, or more open pose. Just like the legs, the arms have multiple shelled joints that give you a lot of room to edit the poses!

• Two ONI light machine guns, with either a single hand, or dual grip, as well as a relaxed hand pose. The hands on the LMGs are shelled.

• Two pairs of Regiments armoured C-Spec arms with control sticks, which are also shelled elements, with a Regiments open-wrist joint underneath, letting you swap in a pistol, or other accessory should you wish the pilot to wield something else!

• One Arm, One Leg, and One Hand, in "default" poses, fully poseable before you print! You've got complete control over how you want to pose these elements. Meaning that, with enough determination, no two ONI mechs you print need ever be the same!

A reminder that anyone who backs us this month will get the ONI mech bonus content for free, in addition to our DBR Elite Infantry and Heavy Weapons!
