It is so weird listening to a podcast about segregation in grade schools (from an anti-segregationist point of view), and every second advertisement is promoting a dude who was fired from CNN for promoting anti-gay hate crimes, and who (in the ad itself) is advocating for segregating trans kids in grade schools.

Ugh. I hate it. It's so gross.

I've gone through the full Patreon history to make a timeline of what was released each month, and I just wanted to pencil out some of what I found.

There are some pretty obvious fantasy-grimdark pairs using similar design elements. These represent most of the armies there are currently models for and a lot of the potential variety for the OPR in terms of species.

First Army	Second Army	Time Gap
Orcs	Orc Marauders	7 months
Ratmen	Ratmen Clans	36 months
Dwarf Guilds	Dwarves	15 months
High Elf Fleets	Wood Elves	1 months
Empire	HDF	11 months
Saurians	Saurian Starhost	0 months
Beastmen	Jackals	1 month
Dutchies of Vinci	Eternal Dynasty	2 months
Mummified Undead	Robot Legions	0 months

Currently unmatched sets are:

• Goblin Reclaimers (Goblins)
• Shadow Stalkers
• Vampiric Undead
• Alien Hives
• Blessed Sisters

If we assume:

• "Brothers" armies (specialty Battle Brothers, Custodian Brothers, Prime Brothers, and Havoc Brothers) all come after the Battle Brothers.
• More human armies (Human Inquisition, Gangs of New Eden, Infected Colonies, Machine Cults, Soul-Snatcher Cults) and elf armies (Dark Elf Raiders, Elven Jesters) are less likely.
• Gangs of New Eden and Titan Lords don't really match the Patreon model as well.
• Edit: Apparently Rebel Guerrillas are not human, but also not likely.

So here's my guesses for most likely near future armies:

• Goblins: the most obvious analog to an existing model line that we don't have.
• DAO Union: the last remaining GF army that isn't connected to humans or elves.
• Battle Brothers: have been teased, and are a pre-requisite for a pretty large chunk of the remaining factions. I assume they want these out as soon as their design is settled.
• Kingdom of Angels: possible match to Blessed Sisters.
• Infected Colonies: possible match to Vampiric Undead.

Thoughts?
