He probably lurked for a bit before posting. It's on the site somewhere.

In that teaser that Sandra showed us, rife with strange errors, I noticed that the words Melee Defense were capitalized. This makes me believe that they might just have the same ability as the Gladiatrons (and likely one or two more). Maybe First Assault 2 and Beserker Charge? Combining Valgard and the Kozuke's abilities could be a neat counter to Wait then Fire.

Then again, since the Wolves of Badru have such unique and interesting powers, I'm sort of expecting something completely new and different with these guys, although I'm willing to bet good money that they'll be Disciplined Soldiers.

On sort of a tangent, how do you think we should abbreviate them? I saw someone write 'RoF' or 10th RoF, but I think I personally like 10th Foot to go with the 4th Mass. Also, depending on points, I think it'll be funny to make an army with them and the MacDirks, and call it the Foot Clan.
Count me a fan of the "10th Foot." I'm big on consistency.

As for speculating powers, I'd still say it's best to be careful with those wonky previews. After all, truth said that they weren't quite right (if I remember correctly from all that).

"Comics are a wellspring of imagination; comics can tell stories cheaply that other mediums cannot express. Today it costs $100 million to do special effects on film in 'Fantastic Four' that Jack Kirby could create 40 years ago with a pencil."
