Yes. Probably around issue 18.
Be well, people of CoH.
That's optimistic 
I would make sweet cyber luv to a spines brute.
Words to the wise aren't necessary- it's the stupid ones that need them.

heheh....I'm staying away from this one. I can get behind Katana, Broadsword, and Martial Arts.....but bananas? Noty. 
There will be new spine costume options so we dont have to go with the banana option.

Spines/Dark Brute too...oh how happy we will be and a' hunting we will go, Hi-Ho a' Radio a farming we will GO!
Don't forget last seasons hit, "a' hunting we will go, Hi-Ho a' Mitachandrio a farming we will GO!
Also in Architecht Stores now, "a' hunting we will go, Hi-Ho a' 52+ Boss YO! a farming we will GO!
Hmmm, would spines work out? Secondary effect is -recharge, which is a reason why ice armor isn't coming our way.
Although spines would be a killer fun set.

According to BaBs there's gonna be 2 new skins for spines for i16 so there's still hope!
Edit: doh Helin beat me to it!
I'd love to see what Damage Spines/Fire + Fiery Embrace + Fury would =

I'd like to see Spines ported over. Spines/Fire Brute...hmm...think of all the AOE and DMG capabilities...Delicious.

For me...I REALLY want Katana...like...I REALLY want it. I love the look of Katana, and hate that I can only play it on my Scrapper. Sure, I can play it on my Stalker too...but it's definately not the same as it would be playing it on a Brute or on my Scrapper.
Katana please..
I'd love to get spines ported over as much as most, but really... a mobile nova would be a little OP. I'd love it, and I'd surely roll up a Spines/Dark to match my Scrapper, but I really doubt it'll ever happen.

OK Spines fans, gather round and listen closely. WE DO NOT WANT THE DEVS LOOKING AT SPINES! Castle has said in the past that he was 'reluctant' to even look at the set for fear of finding serious balance issues. If Spines were to get ported over, they'd have to be nerfed in some way, shape or form! Let's not ruin a good thing in our haste for br00te goodness. Claws are good and claws are great! Let's all go out and celebrate! Hooray!
When there is no room left in Hell, the Dead shall walk the earth.
Seriously we dont need any more attack powers for brutes. We need more /defense powers
Besides Ice Armour and Regen, I don't think there's any more defensive sets to give to brutes.
I would like Ice Armor *nod*

Also Ninjitsu. Which seems... unlikely. But then, I said as much about a lot of the sets that they've already proliferated. I'm still really surprised that Stalkers are getting Broadswords before Brutes are, for example.

What is it about Spines that is OP exactly? I haven't played one to a very high level, but my experience with the set so far has hardly got me thinking it's too good to be true. Is it the damage aura in an attack set? The overall amount of AoE? I'm just not seeing the problem.
Actually, the one thing I would like for Brutes, even if I get booed out of this thread, would be something involving zweihander weapons(two-handed weapons(not to be confused with dual-blades)). I have many thoughts in my head about seeing a Brute wielding a claymore, a massive axe, a polearm, or a maul(two-handed warhammer). I do realize that indeed there would be a massive amount of additional powersets though., but by the gods, I would love to see something along these lines. Seeing a Brute wielding a Legacy War Axe, or Legacy War Mace is fine and dandy, but I'd rather something where you use two hands for that oversized weapon, rather than just one hand. Of course, you couldn't use shield proficiency with this powerset, just like if you picked the dual-blades powerset.

Castle referenced spines having as many as three secondary effects in one power.
