Released under the radar today are the Resistance Sappers and Scout ATV's. Although we dont have the rules out for them today, they are supposed to be hitting the stores. I accidentally found this today when figuring out what I was going to field later tonight.
It's quite possible that the Dropfleet Kickstarter has swamped the news of this release.

Battlefield Engineers have existed since the early 17th century on Earth, and have filled various roles since that time, usually preparing and upgrading defences for protracted sieges. Modern mobile warfare has rendered such set defences largely obsolete, but battlefield engineering in other forms has never been more important. This is especially true for Resistance bands, where planned excavations, environmental traps and running field repairs are strategically vital.
Lacing roadways with traps, blocking off avenues of escape and toppling enemy occupied buildings are just some of the weapons in their arsenal. Practical application varies from warzone to warzone, but a tried and tested method in urban environments is to set charges at weak points, choke points and T-Junctions. The charges are then detonated at opportune moments, sending enemy units down into crushing rock tunnels or excavated pits below.
Scout ATVs £11.00

Scout ATVs operate ahead of the main Resistance force and use a wide range of pre-invasion tech to distort and hamper enemy targeting systems. So bizarre and esoteric are the constantly changing combinations used that even hyper-advanced Shaltari systems have been thrown off target by Scout ATVs.
It takes a special type of fighter to pilot an unarmed quad behind enemy lines, and for this reason Scout All-Terrain Vehicles feature mainly in Allied Resistance bands, where self-sacrifice is often the order of the day. However, these squads are sometimes seen in Feral bands, mostly in death cults, or those who’s leader is even more intimidating than the guns of the enemy.
