Has it been announced as to how many alpha strike mech packs will be released?
I mean, depending on the number, I might go that route, or not.
I was planning on buying an introbox set in order to make a new set of convention demo mechs, 8 Liao, 8 Steiner, and 8 Marik... However, the Alpha Strike boxes are looking to contain 50% introbox mechs, anyway. Because I'd rather avoid the redundancies, I'm wondering if the number of these Alpha strike boxes to be released has been announced.
If it's 12, then I know that the 24 introbox mechs will be re-introduced, meaning that I can safely buy just the AS Lances, and not have a Third intro-box.
If it's less than, I'll just ignore the lance packs, and get the intro box again. I'd be just as well getting pewters for all the 'mechs that I'd be missing from the AS packs.
Storage is quickly becoming an issue. Shipping all my mechs overseas is costly.
