It's unclear to me whether or not the new HHs will be part of regular rotation or not. Especially the Level 1-5s, not the Rank Specials. Under the Herd Helper page (https://hj2.huntandjump.com/herdhelpers.php) they are still listed as 'special event only'... even the Level 1 helpers.

Secondly, does this mean that the genes for Varnish will soon be included in a horse's genetic testing!? Or will this still be an untestable gene? I had questions about Varnish several months ago and someone (maybe Ammit?) suggested that Varnish is not quite as simple as dominant or recessive, the way I had been thinking about it. It has been a very hard gene for me to breed out because it often doesn't show up until the horse has already produced multiple foals. It would be so cool if it could be tested for.

I do not know about the RSs, but the others are already in rotation :)

There are no new level 1 HHs so I am not sure which ones you mean.

Some of the new ones will be in rotation after this week, some are already in rotation, some will never be in rotation.

The herd helpers related to Varnish are not new, so they aren't included. In the game though, "Fast Varnish", "Snowflake" and "Slow Varnish" are 3 allele of the same gene. I call it Fast and Slow because all appaloosa varnish to some degree, but the slow is basically "non varnish". I can usually tell around 4 if they're fast or slow varnish, as long as they aren't leopards, so if you need help figuring out which might be non varnish, feel free to shoot me a message.

Ammit, they're referring to the multiple HH that reference Varnish and Non Varnish on the HH list.

I think they also want to know if het ND1, Ex pro dun, etc will be reguarly rolled. Which, I know Het ND1 and the Ex pro dun are already popping up for others as a daily herd helper.

Thanks guys!

Yeah I essentially scrolled down the list and if it said '0 exist in the game' I figured they were new. I guess the Varnish/Non-Varnish ones are not new? But are no longer in rotation?

Thanks Haltanny, I do have questions about some appaloosa so I'll PM you. :)
