Agreed, it's okay for other factions to get nice things too!

I really wonder why Ret should use them? Seems like they are weaker Sentinels, we will see. Seeing them when our own are probably the worst unit (or close to it) in the game hurts a little but has nothing to do with Ret receiving something nice. Could have been nice as a proxy for us but well legionnaires are luckily not worth it.

Call it skepticism, but PP doesn't exactly have me brimming with faith right now. If they're anything close to what I'm expecting, they'll see about as much use as Ellowyur Swordsmen do compared to Sentinels. Even if they nerf the sentinels, those, Swordsmen, and Ryssovass are probably going to occupy uncomfortably-similar roles and be stepping on each other's toes all the time.

Placing my tongue firmly in cheek now.
I don't aee why ret would use this either. However once they get a nyss warcaster who looks surprisingly like Kryssa and a theme lists that gives ryssovass vengeance and thr nyss hunters ambush I bet they will see use.

The guy who plays Ret seemed really excited about having a Tough unit.

apparently the new nyss are confirmed to be merc\minion models that have partisanm so they are basically melee-only nyss hinters really. Should be interesting, but meh.

Where have the Ryssovas Defenders been confirmed to be merc/minions? It's just kind of curious, because them being in Ret (where Nyssor is) makes sense, but not necessarily working for other people.
But why Ret is excited for them is pretty easy to explain: - The Lys Healer. Tough combos fairly nicely with something where stuff within a certain range can't be knocked down. - Depending on stats, they might have pretty good sticking power, because believe it or not, Ret doesn't have that many good melee units. Mage Hunter Infiltrators are wanting an attachment, Houseguard Halberdiers after the package are 1 point less than Sentinels, and then there's Dawnguard Sentinels. In a world where Ret still doesn't have a multi-wound melee unit yet, something with Tough is better than not having it. - Its just another melee unit to play around with, because variety is the spice of life.

If they are minions I will scream and dance. Just for the fact that I could play them with my gators would be so much fun. But, if the stars align and all the gods of all the ages give their blessing, and they can be taken by Legion as a minion model. Goats beware, I will build an altar, and there will be sacrifices.

Well, I wouldn't bet on it considering their lore, but it certainly would be nice. As someone else said they might be nice to have just to proxy over our normal Legionnaires, at least if I ever had a reason to play them in a list again.

There's no way we'd get to take them as a minion. We can't take Cilena. Lanyssa has animosity. So I'm positive we won't. But I can dream. But yea, I've mentioned using them as nicer model versions for legionaires. Who I am finding ways to play.
