Reposted from Muse on Minis:
"On pages 34 and 35 of the new No Quarter there's some new artwork with Cryxian runes. There's some sort of giant cannon, a hammer, two warcasters with their faces blurred out and a trollkin with a sword and grenade. Here's what the runes translate to:
Header
"Visions of war"
Next to the cannon
"Wall breaker
Steel shaker
Commanding those
Who dig their graves"
Next to the first warcaster
"Fortifier gunner
Taken wounded
Born anew in battle"
Next to the trollkin
"From the North they come bringing the fury of the frozen winds"
Next to the second warcaster
"Power born
on the field
of battle
Skill forged in
the fires of war"
Footer
"Fire hanger rage"
First warcaster seems to pretty clearly be Seige2, possibly the cannon means he'll be a battle engine caster.
The second warcaster has Cygnar armor and his helmet and knife make him look like a trencher.
The trollkin could either be a warlock or a solo, not enough detail to get a good idea either way."
Would love to see it myself. Anyone around here have access to a copy?

That sounds really cool. One thing I hope they aren't going to do, but think think they might, is restrict the list to non-character, non-electric immune war Jacks. After the restrictions on SoTT, I could see that.

Wow. Finally we have Trencher theme force! Maybe Trollkin will be Trencher Grenadier, or an another Nothkin model of Trollbloods.

First Caster is definitely Siege.
Second one? Not a clue. Possibly Gunny2 in Cygnar? FACTION HOPPING!!!!
He was a Cygnar trencher after all.

Seems interesting, but I'll wait and see what we will end up with.

This seems pretty cool. Siege2 might be fun and I am pretty keen on getting a trencher theme. I hope it is balanced but interesting. I feel like the trollblood stuff could be a reference to their Northkin theme list but I don't expect to see it soon so maybe not. I would love to see the trollbloods represented a bit more in Cygnar, they do after all have a large population of "city trollkin". Other then Grenediers do any other jacks seem particularly in theme with trenchers? Sentinels maybe?

Although this is Cygnar forum...
Anyway Trollbloods needs much more Northkin models. It is true that they have some Northkin models for now, but still it is too small to run a theme based on them. Adding an another would be never be a bad thing.
Well, perhaps, some common military units such as Kriel Warriors are can be also regarded as Northkin model if Northkin theme force is released, though.
We will happy to finally see Trollkin Trencher model for us, but if PP only choose one of them, I think that it is better to yield the chance to Trollbloods first and let them enjoy their own right.
And because they says 'north' so it is more reasonable to think that the new Trollkin model is Trollbloods model with Northkin tag. I am also remind the bombs of Borka. Maybe Northkin Trollkin likes the bombs?
But still, it will be happy to see a Trollkin Trencher model for us. If PP release the model by Cygnar/Trollbloods multy faction kit(so we can assemble the model by either a Cygnar model or a Trollbloods model!), then it will be interesting as well.

A Trollkin Trencher model that can't be played with Gunnbjorn would be very sad.
The first actual theme force book any faction gets will really set the tone moving forward. My hope is that these things are jam packed with goodies since it may be awhile before we get another release.

SIEGE 2!
The images are up, and it is undoubtedly Siege 2 sitting in the left hand corner. It is his profile in armour looking kind of like Stryker 2's. The main important thing is that he has a minuteman jump jet on his back.
If Siege was some kind of a melee powerhouse that would be *awesome*, long Jumping threat range and a keep away mechanic would be really sweet. I have also said that his feat 100% has to be "drop the Hammer" as the Hammer in the picture is 100% Havoc, maybe a little more suped up.
The Cannon is interesting. Its hard to gauge scale from the image and It could be a battle engine, it could be a tiny turret, who knows. Dear god I hope it isn't more light artillery.
The really interesting thing is that on the other page is a very bulky looking Trencher, almost looks like a Troll, but its clearly a warcaster with smoke stacks. But the idea of getting 2 casters in the Theme book seems a little excessive and odd. There is a potential that its Gunnbjorn 2? But yeah, very odd.
There is also a possibility that its a second Junior Warcaster, a Trencher Journeyman.
Anyway, interesting stuff.

That really doesn't answer the question. Facebook is rather large. Checking The PP and No Quarter pages yielded no results. Where can they be found?

 This is the one posted on the Cygnar forum. It has translations of the text. |

Moving here the discussion about Haley1 so we don't go OT on the spoilers thread.
