I saw FFG is putting out 4 squad packs. These are 4 squads that come with the base game. Anyone know if these packs will come with the info cards?

 All I can say is its good news indeed, means things are rolling along, more units mean tabletop gaming, Sweeeeettttttttt!!!  Did i read somewhere there are rules for Dust Tactics tabletop, a pdf ???

 I'd be surprised if they brought out miniatures without the cards to use them in the game.  After all, you need to mark the cards while you're playing, so you need one for each unit.

The news post also mentions unit cards in the premium boxes for the battle grenadiers and combat rangers so you can convert them to specialist anti armour units.  Seems a little odd to me to have these in the premium versions but not the normal ones, as I'm a keen converter, but as I like to paint my own minis, I won't have the cards to use the minis I've lovingly converted.

So any word on when these will be out?

I was wondering what the release dates are myself. 

Does anyone know the release schedule of the squad packs in relation to the Add-on packs?  Same time, squads first, etc?

Also,  will the Deluxe Editions of the Squad packs and Add-on packs be only available through FFG store like the base game or orderable through my local game store?

Thanks.

 I'm glad to see these coming out to add more variety to the base game as far as army builds go. I hope we get the other two squads. I like shotguns. I like lasers.

The “Gunners” and “Battle Grenadiers” are the most interesting units as they are customizable with additional AT figures. The weakest unit has got to be the “Recon Rangers”. I just don't get what use this unit is – slightly better firepower, no AT ability and basic HtH. It's AA ability wont even come into play until the 5th set. The second Allied squad should have been the BBQ squad.

 I emailed Dust.com the other day about the painted walkers they are selling, i was told that they do NOT come with gaming cards ????? has anybody bought these, is this correct ??? whats the point if it is.

P.S got my copy of dust Tactics to day and love it :)

I beleave the walkers shown on Dust.com are a different scale. 1/35 vs. 1/48 scale in Dust Tactics. So thier much larger and I beleave are for a role playing game. If you go to Dust-Tactics.com there are 2 Mechs which are the proper scale for this game and these do come with the proper stat card.

 It was def the 1/48th scale miniatures i was emailing them about, the painted versions.

Premium painted versions No card, kit version card.

if anyone else emails them and hears different please let me know .

I suggest that you copy and paste a picture of the stat cards from boardgamegeek and email them again. Mine came with one.

 I'll email them again.

I own both pre-painted models (the Fury of Ivan and the Jagdluther) and both came with stat cards for Dust Tactics.

Almost finished painting my Dust figs and started looking at the army packs..... i'll probably get all 4 - but a quick bit of maths made me realise by the time i pay for these i may as well buy another base game, since the figs are the same (except the extra 2 bazooka guys) - and i get more figs, more boards and 4 more walkers.......

But you don't get the extra cards. 

Since I'm a completist, that would drive me crazy...
