well as six new starter teams most with several new figures for £15 (for now).

profile cards, 47 tokens, 45 Countdown cards, 20 Gadget cards, a Blast and
Flamethrower template, a Pewter Maguffin miniature and six D6. The pre-order
reduced price will end on the 29th of November 2015 and the stuff
should hopefully ship during the first week of January 2016 if not sooner.
Lastly there is the Guild Ball news. They have posted
their second Errata and Clarifications document for their Season One stuff.
Pre-orders for the Mason’s Guild player Chisel and the Alchemist’s/Enginer’s
Guild player Compound are up on their webstore. I do plan on picking up Chisel
for two reasons. First is best I have a Mason’s team and the second is because
she looks awesome. The artwork reminds me of Alite from Battle Angel Alite.
