So whats the deal with Spec Ops figures? I understand they are for campaigns, but can they be used in standard one off battles as well? How does balance work with them if so.

Alright fellow Infinity Goons, I need some advice... I do a bit of minor distribution in my area so I have access to gaming stuff at a less than retail price, so as I make orders I order myself a few things here and there, and squirrel it away in my storage room (That way I am not discouraged while painting). I was reading through this thread and was thinking about some builds when I decided I should get out all my Infinity just to see what I have (I lost track) I... I think this was a mistake... First up, not too bad some Yu Jing, and Tohaa. Next about the same but we have Ariadna, CA, and Mercenaries. Now we have Nomads and Haqq, this pile is getting pretty large. Well, alright then, lets look at the Aleph. And now, the worse, PanO, aw gently caress... Now here comes the part where I need some advise, where the hell should I start? I was thinking Tohaa, as they are the newest they have the fewest figures (I have all of them so far). I obviously have the most PanO and I think I have at least one of everything from that faction, but god drat, that's a lot to paint. I haven't actually gotten a chance to play the game yet, I've read the rules and such but I only recently got a couple of my friends to commit, and they are playing Yu Jing, ALEPH, and Haqq. Anyway so yeah, any thoughts would be great. LumberingTroll fucked around with this message at 02:15 on Sep 7, 2013 |

Corbeau posted:The first step is to admit that you have a very real problem. Its only a problem if it affects my life (Which it doesn't) Thanks for the advise guys, if anyone has more I welcome it. Can someone give me a good starting PanO list? Starting at 150 and then growing from there? I know we are going to start at 150 but I don't know how quickly we should escalate.

Indolent Bastard posted:What technology are you using to make the decals? I've thought about making some but didn't really search out the "print your own" options. All you need is an InkJet printer, and buy some InkJet waterslide decal paper, you can get clear, and white. http://www.decalpaper.com is where I order it from. never had any problems from them.

That is a sectoral starter, you will want to get a sectoral as well. Sectorals are like sub-factions with special lists.

I have a ton of that stuff Flipswitch, its great stuff but the prep time and assembly is a total bitch, I spent a lot of time with a file getting the parts to fit smoothly. I wish there was a tutorial on how they painted it.

Flipswitch posted:Going to see the joy of putting it together tomorrow at the store. Yep, exactly. they don't slide in smooth, and the "sprue" doesn't always come off cleanly, but I did have a batch from the first shipment, so maybe it wont be so bad? The directions are also pathetic, but there is really only one place where I had an issue.

Great looking board, I am curious to see how you paint the spartan terrain, I haven't seen any tutorials or guides from others that have yet, which is pretty surprising. The official guide is awful, and doesn't explain anything or even give any good tips about painting them. LumberingTroll fucked around with this message at 01:25 on Jan 3, 2014 |

Hortism posted:I wonder why cheap unit spam isn't more of a thing in Infinity. Other than the potential tedium of painting the 2-3 models over and over. I think because the kind of people that play Infinity dont want to have to use more than 10-15 models at a time. I could be wrong though.

I actually managed to paint some stuff this month! Some JR Miniatures terrain and a couple PanO figures for infinity. The satin varnish is still a little tacky, that and the bright lights make them seem a little too shiny.

Deviant posted:I mean, I play ALEPH. So that means I *need* this Ajax I just bought, right? Here, I will make you feel better. I have been buying so many figures for infinity, I made a google spreadsheet, then a form to fill out every time I made a purchase to make sure I dont buy duplicates by mistake. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AmC3HKYxUU_fdGxIOFZkNDlfRWtXXzZOWXF0MG1NY1E&usp=sharing There are over 220 Infinity skus on there, thats packages, not figures...

Swagger Dagger posted:I would love those Ghulam models so much if the women didn't have the exact same heads. They actually aren't from what I an tell, the hair style seems to be a little different. Also, if its that big of a deal, lop the drat thing off and replace it with one of a thousand bits replacement heads, a lot of small companies make them. Edit: The other day someone was asking about terrain that can be folded flat for storage after the game, like the stuff in the new box set. I think this would work for them. http://www.battlesystems.co.uk/products.html Its supposed to all come apart for storage, my set from the Kickstarter should be in soon.

It will probably cost a fortune, but they've been mum about the price so far. costing a fortune is no joke, I have two sets of their orlder urban streets. that's like $550. I think I'll design my own version.. garage here I come! I did start working on another building recently, just prototyping some designs. The sample turned out well, was really easy to assemble.

This image is a repost but I am looking for game specific feedback. This is one of my lasercut building floors, Here is a shot with more floors, they all lift off each other for easy access. and obviously Im not done painting them. Should work well enough for Infinity right? I know I've shown them before in their fresh cut state but I want to make sure the design is good before I call it done. Also any thoughts on color scheme would be great, the one with off-white paneling is the direction I am planning to go with all of them.
