So...not hearing any talk about this until I stumbled upon it today. What are we thinking:

Wow, that's a really over the top model. The model itself is fine, though I find it odd that it's not pure Convregence (though she is Partisan to them).
Average Solo Price, 4-5, "she's" 5, and what do we get: Works for everyone. ARM 17 SPD 7 MAT 7 8 Damage! Two Weapon Master Attacks with Grievous Wounds Guaranteed Damage beyond 1 point if otherwise unsuccessful (it's not a choice!) Prey Acrobatics & Parry Side Step DEF 16 before buffs versus Ranged
A very very brutal melee solo whose biggest disadvantage will be having to take magic attacks easier than a gun's, but aoe is pretty much pointless against it. If this is in CID, I'd it expect it to come out more expensive or losing a few advantages.

Guaranteed Damage beyond 1 point if otherwise unsuccessful (it's not a choice!) I think you’re reading that wrong. She doesn’t automatically deal D3 damage when attacking, enemies attacking her take an automatic D3 damage.

It's correctly priced for a 5 point combat solo these days. None of the main factions want to bring a merc combat solo, and even in mercs a utility solo is more valuable than combat solos. I hate how grevious wounds is being handed out like candy though, given Alten's early MKIII nerf. Only concern is that I hope she get's retrod into the other themes, otherwise its just irregulars once again. Also this means that Riot Quest models will not go through CiD. Expect to see some OP and some useless solos this year

She doesn’t automatically deal D3 damage when attacking, enemies attacking her take an automatic D3 damage. Woops, you're right. Not that situation is much better. You'd have to go in trying to almost guarantee 25 points of damage with anything short of a 'Beast or 'Jack or they'll end up on the short end.

I’m convergence HOT DAMN IS SHE TERRIFYING, but in mercs... she’s alright. I only say she’s good in convergence because with Aurora she’s got a 14.5 threat, with boosted to hit and damage, flight, parry, and acrobatics. Prey also makes her may 9 pow 13... that’s a pretty hurting caster if you at any point are within range.
In mercs... she has a lot of competition.

How many SPD 7, ARM 17, MAT 9, POW 13 Weapon Masters are in Mercs? You can find a couple of the combinations here and there, but not as a whole package, and not smaller than a Heavy Warjack.
Her only real competition are all the support and disruptive Solos we like to put on the table. A couple of which would be needed to help her get quickly through annoying terrain.

I don't know what to make of this. Are we sure this isn't a joke? It's not one of those "limited format" things like the -1 casters?

Its Eilish all over again.
PP publish something from the novels, makes it broken to fit the fluff and available to everyone. The community cries "OMG OP WTF!" and then it turns out it wont see much use after all.

The initial rules for Eilish were utterly insane, luckily he went through CID and people managed to make the devs realise he was not acceptable.

Of course, "she's" Medium-based, so getting that frontage that will allow her to move that fast will slow "her" down a bit.
