Bad Alias:
They were in Skin Game as well.

Because the Turtlenecks seem very happy to use modern weapons, and very competent in doing so. I presume they are following orders of those higher-ups. This speaks to the bosses having a good idea what the modern mortal weapons ARE capable of.

I just assumed the Fomor are grabbing and forcibly turning military / ex-military operators and then letting them pick whatever guns they want to do their tasks. But Bombshells implied the turtlenecks are tools of their Empress, delegated out to the lords - I'd bet she's a lot more on the ball than Mag or the ones Murphy and Molly killed.

Hmmmmm.
This makes me stop to ask... Have we seen any female Fomor, onstage? Or only mention of offstage ones?
Which notion leads me to a sort of hive/queen society, with workers and soldiers and a small "male/breeder" coterie...

If they've been isolated for a thousand or more years, they could have developed a lot of unfounded arrogance over that time. Especially if they have had servants that whole time.
Yuillegan:
^^This.
And perhaps with aid from the Circle or Outsiders, or both, they might feel a tad more confident than last time. Remember this isn't the old Fomor. This is the collection of all those various groups who got beaten - giants, sorcerers, shapeshifters, dark gods. Lots of different mythologies have people with an axe to grind. They seem to be under the banner of the Fomor. Like the Fae, it is a blanket term for lots of different groups. Not everyone is "pure blood" so to speak.
