Aaand updated. And seems like this book is break from fighting the swarm and instead we fight idiots who want to be eaten by the swarm?
This product page hasn't been updated, it has been created from scratch (it was ominously missing, despite book 1, 3 & 4 having product pages).
It sounds like religious fanatics (the worst kind), in Warhammer 40K it would probably be Genestealer Hybrids among them. ;-)
This AP isn't a straightforward man vs. bio-hive race though, but it has a religious undertheme with Hylax - the insect godess and the separation of the shirren race from the swarm.
And the update clearly isn't complete, as this item is still unavailable for preorder even though the volumes before and after it are available -- and it is not yet showing up on the subscription page.
That cover has a "GET TO THE CHOPPA!" feel to it.
I'm really loving the covers for this adventure path!
Carry on!
--C.

And now it appears to be fixed, assuming that there are no subtle issues as with the adventure path and campaign setting issues.
Interesting. This AP seems to be connected to the Swarm somehow. You can actually see some clues, as the inclusion of Swarm related monsters in the alien archive of the two first volumes already announced. Now I'm curious.

Is this a weird joke?

Stick to your day job, kid, you're never gonna make it in comedy.
I'm surprised there hasn't been many posts in this one.
There should be more when somebody gets their PDF and spills the beans.
Preemptive question before the subscriber PDFs start dropping: what are the new Swarm creatures in this one?
Swarm Antecourser (CR 3)(might have spelled that wrong)
Swarm Nauphage (CR 2)
Swarm Revulsor (CR 4).
Do the starships in the article have the Living Starship rule?
No, they're of a new type called "biomechanical" and are not living in and of themselves. As the intro to it says: "Biomechanical starships meld complex biology and cutting-edge technology to form starships that include self-contained living systems, though they're not actual creatures like living starships"
They've got some neat abilities. Self healing near stars, ability to release pheromones to help the crew, stuff like that.
Aww man, on the family picture in page 36, someone forgot to tell artist that Shirren have three parents :'D
Or maybe they lost one of the parents?
Humans have only two possibilities for less than complete sets of parents -- shirren evidently have six such possibilities.

Eh, the picture's description is just that it shows the character's family.
Its otherwise very stereotypical family photo except that it has shirrens in it.

The lack of any Swarm made it kind of a less memorable adventure for me. It was fun to cheese the burning building with flying dragonkin though.
