Mystery: Where's the third Foehn MBT? Either there isn't any.... or it's something special that shouldn't be spoiled yet.

[Mr_FakeSmile]

MBT is a mecha.

[Damfoos]

I hope the thing on the back side of the WF rotates just like the thing on their CY. And stops when the war factory is on low power.

Third Foehn battle tank is cloaked that's why we can't see it /s

Cloaked? OP!!!! if you use a disguise? MBT spy confirmed.

[Schottkey 7th Path]

Naw, i predict the last Foehn MBT to be a walker like the GDI Titan. the toughest of all the MBT's but also the slowest. and that is why it could not make it in time for their big photo shoot. 

[Solais]

I wonder what's the specialty of the other MBT on the screenshot, besides it having a turret that looks like a penis. I guess it got balls of steel?

[Damfoos]

And instead of Windspin it uses Meatspin ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[Solais]

I wonder what's the "Reptoir" and why its data is loaded the same way as the Allies and the Soviets in the Volknet. Will there be a Fifth Side? :V

New hero...

[Damfoos]

Incase you are reffering to these 2 dudes, these are not Foehn heroes for sure, most likely a new coop mission for Soviets. Because it would be a waste to not include these precious infantry SHPs into MO. Too bad they weren't made earlier, otherwise they'd find much more applications.

 

 

Now the question is if we will see the rest:

 

Here's the thread on PPM incase you are interested.

[Chrono Stormer]

I think one of the heroes might be a cybernetic Boris (thinking Volkov-esque) and he'll probably be campaign only

[nikitazero678]

It's been a while since I'm around in the forum. I'm very surprised to see MO will have a fourth faction: the Foehn Revolt.

 

From what I can get, my guess/speculation is that the Foehn was possibly formed as a joint measure by the Allies, specifically the Pacific Front, and the Soviets, specifically China, (both were hinted on Future Tank X-2 and Harbinger Gunship's info) to stop Yuri and his Epsilon forces, probably after somehow learning that both sides, even when working together, will lose to Epsilon (hinted on Phantasm MLRS' info) without Foehn's intervention.

 

Can't wait to see how Foehn will be in-game. That means I guess I have to change my tactics and strategy a bit to compensate with Foehn's grand inclusion to MO...

I suddenly thought there was an update, dang. So.... it was quiet for so long around the project, barely a world from the Meisters. Did anything happen?

[nikitazero678]

Maybe they're still developing MO 3.3 and rather wait until it's nearing completion before making another news bulletin...

 

BTW, I wonder like what Foehn's three heroes will be...

I'm not particularly worried about the MO team's relative quietness.  They've done an awful lot over the last year, too much for them to just lose interest now.

 

Speaking of Foehn origins, something's recently occurred to me.  It might be just coincidence, but has anyone else noticed how in the reveal trailer, whenever it's Foehn vs. Soviets, it always seems to be China on the Soviet side.  Maybe China was involved in creating them (and earlier bits of the trailer seem to indicate that, given their rather heavy presence in general), but remember that they are the Foehn Revolt.  Just who are they "revolting" against in particular?

...Turned against their creators perhaps?

 

And veering right back into wild harebrained guesses, it wouldn't surprise me to learn that Foehn's infantry are in fact all cyborgs... and the machine part is in control.  You've got lingering loyalty to China or some PF country?  Tough, central intelligence says you're fighting against them anyway.

 

The biggest problem with that whole theory is the emphasis on Foehn attacking Epsilon as well.  Could be a simple case of "neutralise the most dangerous targets first", or an equally simple case of Yuri seeing Foehn as the current biggest threat, focusing on them and Foehn deciding it doesn't much care for the attention.  And PS Euro Alliance, Latin Confederation, Russia etc.: your turn will come when we're done frying the bigger fish.  (Because I really can't see Foehn being a truly "good" faction.)

Actually, when they are shown with the Chinese, they are shown together with them, like allies. Whenever the Foehn is fighting against someone, they are always purple colored, even if those are Soviet and Allied units.

The silence usually means there's RL problems which delay the work, lack of progress which doesn't allow to show anything new or some big overhauls of something that already exists (be it assets or balance). Such things suggest the release is going to be delayed again, that's what we are worried about. Obviously the team won't stop working on the mod after so many effort spent to get there and will eventually get it done anyway, but the less delayed the release is, the better for us, players. The release was announced to happen this year, and the updates were frequent back then, so the assumption for release date was the first half of autumn. Now it is quiet for some reason, and I'm not sure if we can expect the release in November or early December.

Since Speeder said Foehn follows a heroic theme (can't remember exactly what he said though), they can be a group of brave ones who joined forces to fight Yuri, the great oppressor (hence why the Revolt).
