Level 7 Announcement

On June 19, Privateer press announced that they will release a new product in science fiction setting called Level 7.

Google has some interesting results, but what stands out for me is Level 7 science fiction novel by Mordecai Roshwald. Speculation at this point but maybe the setting will be taken from the novel. We can only hope that this product will be compatible with Warmachine or Hordes products already published by Privateer press.

We will be closely monitoring this development.

Kaelyssa, Night’s Whisper

On the 22, May 2009 Privateer press released conceptual art of the second Retribution warcaster with the following press release:

“Kaelyssa is the foremost strike force commander of the Retribution’s mage hunters. Her sergeants claim she can hear the heartbeats of the enemy and taste their movements on the wind. Those wizards caught in her sights are left defenseless as their own magic is negated or turned against them. To Kaelyssa her calling is a dangerous but thrilling endeavor, and with every mission she extends the depths of her formidable talents.

Kaelyssa comes in a blister (PIP 35003). A player may field one Kaelyssa in his Retribution army.”

Now this is more like my style. Magic negation ability with assassination techniques. Due to affinity to goggles I would speculate she spent some time in Cygnar. Her weapons look like a formidable arrow rifle confirming my suspicions of ranged threat and some kind of light scimitar which could be seen as a signature of ninja assassin play style. Check out press release here.
