Acceptableloss posted:So now I'm looking at Aleph too. I'm having trouble seeing who the PanO cheerleader unit is supposed to be. I guess it's Fusiliers? How is Aleph's ability to take 4pt netrods not unbalancing in terms of being able to generate a bunch of orders for a very low point cost? I think I'm liking the looks of the Aleph cheerleader models and also the prevalence of mimetism/camo and no wound incapacitation in the army. I'm not very good at this game, but as far as netrods go I think consensus is that it kinda is broken, but everything else Aleph has is so expensive that it's not too broken.

Hopefully this means there's a new Fusiliers sculpt coming, the old sculpt being awful has me waiting to start PanO.

WAR FOOT posted:If the battlemat turns out to be 2x4 I'll likely buy two just for a complete 4x4 of terrain. I'm watching the unboxing video, and it looks like it's a 2x4 mat. The Corvus Belli dude says the terrain pack (mat + card structures) will be sold separately, so you don't have to buy two whole starter sets unless you just want to.

I'm preordering Operation: Icestorm, and I want to get an additional box for each faction to expand it out and play bigger games with my friends. I don't have any PanO or Nomad stuff. What would be good purchases to compliment the stuff in the box? Edit: I'm thinking the Tunguska Interventors box for Nomad and then the Kamau Hacker/Guarda de Assalto for PanO. long-ass nips Diane fucked around with this message at 16:48 on Aug 1, 2014 |

Genghis Cohen posted:Swagger Dagger: It's hard to say much about interventors or any other hackers as the rules will be redone (and apparently vastly expanded) very soon. I would say for additional boxes, the starter sets for the various sectorial armies are good places to look. Value for money and gives you a number of models. If cost is a factor, things with small ancillary models like auxbots, koalas and pandas, or massier models like remotes, give you a bit less gameplay bang for their greater bucks cost. Thanks for the advice. I think I'm just going to get the Icestorm box and each faction's spec ops right now so I can try out different scenario rules. Down the line I want to get the Capitaline Army and Bolts for PanO since I love the models more than anything else in the faction, and probably Hellcats for Nomads.

Deviant posted:Is there anyone else that carries futuristic fold-flat terrain like comes in Operation: Icestorm? I'd like my gaming table a lot better if I could fold it down for storage.

Deviant posted:The only problem with this stuff is none of it folds flat. I'm citing storage concerns. I wasn't sure if it folded or not, sorry. If you like the aesthetics, the WorldWorks Terrainlinx stuff is made to store flat but you're not going to get any multi-story buildings out of it. You can really easily make a 4x4 "mat" that slides together really sturdily and add a bunch of walkways and upper levels to it to compliment bigger buildings you find elsewhere, though. I've put together some of their fantasy terrain, and it was high quality stuff. You just print it out and glue it to foamcore, and it anchors well so stuff doesn't knock around. long-ass nips Diane fucked around with this message at 21:34 on Aug 1, 2014 |

Watching this video: http://www.beastsofwar.com/infinity/battle-box-operation-icestorm/ Carlos mentions the Tunguska Interventors are going to be very popular in the future because there are big changes to the hacking rules coming, so look forward to that I guess.

Those sound like the Bootleg models: http://www.infinitythegame.com/infinity/en/category/bootleg/ They're not really meant for use in the game, they're T&A "collector's models". E:F,B

Chill la Chill posted:Thanks but dang. Saw the link and they are indeed tech bee, lizard pilot, and scar face. So they can't be used to play the game whatsoever? They're not even collector versions of regular models? The website says they have unit profiles that would allow you to use them in a game, but I can't find any of them in the army builder or online anywhere.

Sephyr posted:The Zu Yong is quite cool, but a single model for a unit that will be the core of the new sectorial? I guess there'll be 3 more options in the starter box. Yeah, that guy's got the HMG so I assume there'll be combi rifle or spitfire or whatever in the starter.

I *think* they said the two forces in Operation Icestorm minus the exclusives will be the vanilla faction starters in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKZl3v_5EeU but it's close to an hour long so I haven't gone back to check.

w00tmonger posted:how do subfactions work? Am I cornering myself if I just want to go vanilla? Sectorials get a limited selection of models in exchange for being able to make link teams. By going vanilla you get to use whatever models you want, which is cool, and there are some armies where only the vanilla faction gets access to some cool TAGs or whatever..

Fix posted:I did see a post from someone who went to a presentation recently where they were asked to keep certain things under wraps and he let slip before retracting something about multiple types of hacking devices, so that might be the manner of running different programs or something. They talked about this on the last Mayacast. Apparently there are 3 different hacking devices, each of which has access to a different set of programs (I assume there's overlap between the lists). Combined Army also has its own unique programs.

The rulebook is also a total luxury item since, IIRC, they're still going to put the rules on the site for free and the army builder is where the "official" stats for models live.

The game is great, all the old lovely models are getting replaced and the rules overhaul seems pretty minor but good. Dunno about a VASSAL mod, though.
