All I'm saying is, the first time the Mantis beat the Phoenix: "And nobody had ever done that before!"

And then the Phoenix went on to not win a single war outright until the end of AEG's run :lol:

A perfect example of how the cards and the story often failed to reflect one another.

For example- Emperor Edition. What were the Phoenix doing during that arc? Your guess is as good as mine!

FFG do adore their funny dice...

EDIT: And their ludicrous outcomes. My scuzzy Mantis sailor rolled either Imperial heritage or some sort of scholarly discovery in her background.

Ender has said that we are allowed to pick our heritage.

Pfffft. I rolled this silly Heritage result last year and I'm sticking to it! Duckling has no control over her own destiny (yet).

As a note -

No one has been given their armor or daisho in their kit as of yet. Those will be given at graduation.
What about other weapons? Of course, people aren't walking around with tetsubos and bows, but what about small things like knives?

Wait, people get daisho? :lol:

Doesn't fit the character as she's shaping up...

EDIT: There we go. A little less... serious, a little more tacky.
