So I heard somewhere that Retribution and Circle have the next two CID cycles, which makes sense since they've both gotten close to nothing since CID started. That started me wondering what other factions might have gotten, so I looked at the already-done CIDs.
Cygnar: Had the Trencher CID in June 2017
Khador: Just had the Armored Core CID in February 2018
Protectorate: Currently in the Exemplar CID
Cryx: Had the Black Fleet CID in November 2017, and got TONS of new models
Retribution: Has an upcoming CID
Mercs: Nothing
Convergence: Is a limited faction
Crucible Guard: Is pre-release
Trollbloods: Had the Northkin CID in July 2017
Circle: Has an upcoming CID
Legion: Had the Primal Terrors CID in January 2018
Skorne - They had a big revamp, but I think it was pre-CID
Minion - Had the Blindwater CID in September 2017
Grymkin: Is a limited faction
So based on that, the next CIDs I would expect to see after Retribution and Circle are something for Mercs and maybe Skorne. How cool would a Rhulic CID be? Fix those high shields, tactical arcanists, and ogrun assault corps. Maybe a new Rhulic caster. And maybe the Skorne CID tones the derp turtle back just a tad?

The next CiD is retribution. Potentially a Christmas CiD part 2! Then Tharn in august/Sept/Oct. Then Pirates. I don't expect more than that for 2018.

Totally in for a Rhulic CID, including some new models. I actually hope for it NEXT year, though, since the Man-o-War CID is going to consume the contents of my wallet and my hobby time for the next several months.
- Epic Gorten (finally) - A multi-kit Driller chassis with new variant - A Character Driller (!) - An AoE Gun bunny maybe - Attachments for OAC and Forgeguard - Yep, bumps for TAC and Highshields (why didn't Rockbottom's coins ever work for the latter?) - Some entirely new stuff!!

Retribution is also not expecting new models for their cid. It's a touchup cid. So I would expect them again next year as well.

CoC while unlikely to get one, could use a CID. Their internal balance is wonky and just a balance Cid without new models would do them wonders.

Retribution is not expected to get much, just some modifications to the themes. No more than Mercs got when the laeleese them was put through CID.

I personally hope that PP look at the CID process itself. I support CID, what has come out of it has been mostly good. But the process itself and its speed is alienating a lot of people.
I dont have an answer personally. But the CID process doesn't feel....... right

I was thinking a couple casters, maybe a few solos....Destors... Destors are unlikely. Dawnguard CID is....sometime in the relatively near future. I would expect: - Imperatus (confirmed being tested at 20 points, other changes) - theme changes (characters in themes) - Dawnguard Scyir's drive changes to 'flank: dawnguard', theme benefit changes to righteous vengeance - Ellowuyr swordsmen - Goreshade or Ravyn rework - MHSF or MHI buffs - Nayl? - maybe a RAT increase/point decrease for some warjacks. but that is probably the most we can expect.

It wouldn't surprise me if Ret got "something". Caster, character jack, solo, something. Though I suppose a functional Rayvn and Cavalry IS something.
Or, lolz, clearly a new BAHI exclusive, Dawnguard Battlengine!

I like how High Shields are so forgettable, they don't even make the list. I'd like to see more multi-faction CID's. A session of "the worst option from every faction" would be my dream.

Themes that seem like they really want a release cycle+CID: Minions: Thornfall Alliance Mercs: Rhulic first and foremost; additional releases for Llaelese, a Morrowan theme, possibly Steelhead (purist) as well. Khador: Wolves of winter Trolls: Kriel Company
There's plenty of stuff that wants touchups (ie fixing stormguard and advance move, getting cryx to consider IM) that probably doesn't take a full cycle, but the above list seems like the highest priority in my mind

Thornfall MIGHT be worse, but SM is high on the list of 'really, really bad themes'.
