  1. Our next scenario is Supremacy. This one has some similarities to frontline but keep in mind that you score points at the end of each round in this scenario rather than at the end of the game. I personally wouldn't leave home without at least 3 specialists since you will need them to interact with the objectives. Hackers are allowed this week and I would definitely take one or more. If you do then I would suggest using the link to the hacking helper in the original post. That site is very useful for determining what programs each specific device can use and what they can be used against. We are up to 300pts now so our only limitation is that we are still using limited insertion lists. Next week we will be removing that restriction though.
  2. Young Vin Diesel playing with toys from one of my favorite cartoons as a kid and then screaming "HAND SHARK!!!" Pretty much made my month.
  3. I will tell you where the hype is. Its in the fact that the Aleph Operations and Russian sectorials just got launched on infinity army today. You Ariadna players can now use sweet sweet Russian fireteams. And Brad, you can use 2 Maruts at a time now. Its an insane list and probably not very good which means it's perfect for you.
  4. Remember it is still limited insertion this week as well so keep it to 1 combat group. Do some solid research on Fire teams and Command tokens. Command tokens have a ton of uses such as using them for coordinated orders and re forming fireteams. You can also use them strategically if you are going second to limit your opponents coordinated orders and reduce an order pool. Now this week we can't reduce order pools because we have limited insertion lists, and if a player has only 1 combat group you can't reduce their order pool. Keep it in mind for weeks 5 and 6 though. Fireteams are a bit of a different animal. Remember that while you need to remain near to your other fireteam members, you don't need to clump up super close. Often I have seen people stack up in a row behind a building with their fireteam only to see everyone wiped out with a well placed flamethrower, missile launcher or shotgun. Also everyone tends to get excited about the 3 and 5 member benefits and forget all about the fact that a fireteam of 4+ members gets sixth sense L2. This is a very important rule as it helps when dealing with smoke and people sneaking up behind you. Read up on it.
  5. Yep. Tuesday registration is fine. We will start at 6 but I will be there earlier to set up tables
  6. I have edited the initial post with prize support and entry into. You can sign up down at DT.
  7. You are welcome to borrow my CA stuff. Much of it is unpainted but I have most everything.
  8. No official player count. There is going to be 3 nomad players (or 4 if Andy plays) 1 Ariadna (or 2 if Justin plays them instead of Pan O, Kevin is playing JSA I think and Christian is doing Yu Jing. I will be using Morats and I think JT is doing Hassassins.
  9. I will be running a demo or 2 tonight for those of you who are interested. If you can't make it then I will be available this Friday and Saturday as well as next Tuesday.
  10. One can only dream of attaining this level of not giving a damn.
  11. Yeah. I could help out soon. What days are good for you?
  12. I will probably just use my Morats. There are far too few aliens in this league to oppress you filthy humans. That needs to change.
  13. I've edited the schedule and put in some prohibitions. We will trickle in the more complicated rules like hacking, command tokens and fire teams throughout the league.
  14. Perhaps we could do the first week at 150 then 200 then up to either 250 or 300. Or I could run a bit of a boot camp the week or two before the league starts for newer players to get up to speed on the rules. I think I will slowly introduce concepts throughout the league as well. What sounds good to you?
  15. I am of the opinion that the game doesn't play too well below 200. However we could start at 150 and increase by 50 each week. Part of the escalation part is the missions that escalate in complexity and the ability to eventually take more than 10 troopers. But as I said we could decrease points. If you feel you would benefit more from it. This campaign is designed for people like you to get acquainted with the game so I would rather do what you would prefer.
  16. Hey guys! Many of you have heard me talking about an infinity league for a while now and I'm finally getting it going. Dark Tower will be providing prize support so we will be using their new official league structure. There will be an entry fee of $25 spent in store to participate in the league. This can be on anything such as a board game, infinity products or even just a gift card that you can buy snacks and drinks with. There will be prizes awarded to: Best Overall Favorite Opponent Best painted non TAG miniature. The league will start on Tuesday, August 28th and end on October 2nd. There will be a prize for best general, and anyone that has a fully painted 300pt force at the end of the league will be entered into a prize drawing. Anyone who plays all 6 games will receive a free random miniature at the end. This is also a great lead up to Emerald City Incursion Mk. II. This is a tournament down in Seattle on November 10th and 11th hosted by our very own Andy. He can supply better details as the date approaches. Week 1 Mission: Annihilation. 150 point lists, limited insertion, no fire teams, no hackers, no command tokens Week 2 Mission: Firefight. 200 point lists, limited insertion, no fire teams, no hackers, no command tokens Week 3 Mission: Frontline. 250 point lists, limited insertion, no hackers Week 4 Mission: Supremacy. 300 point lists, limited insertion Week 5 Mission: Transmission Matrix. 300 point lists Week 6 Mission: Supplies. 300 point lists The first 4 weeks of the league include the limited insertion extra. This rule limits your force to 1 combat group which means that you can have no more than 10 models in your force. In the final 2 weeks this restriction is lifted. Also keep in mind that at 150pts you are limited to 3 SWC, 200pts you are limited to 4 SWC, 250pts you are limited to 5 SWC and at 300pts 6 SWC. The rules are all free online and you will need to download the ITS season 9 missions. Any rules documents that you need can be found at https://www.infinitythegame.com/resources/downloads The website also has a handy army builder that works on mobile devices. https://www.infinitythegame.com/resources/tools/infinityarmy A helpful website listing the available hacking programs. http://www.captainspud.com/n3hacking/ I look forward to seeing everyone's space dudes shoot each other in the face.
  17. I need to get the full details hammered out, but my plan was to start the infinity league on August 28th so that DT can properly advertise it and newbies can get models. I will put up a thread in a day or 2. Stratton is working with Nathaniel to figure out prize support.
  18. I'm going to bring Infinity as well
  19. I was planning on running an infinity league in late August. If people would prefer to play Mordheim at the moment then I can postpone my league. As far as time goes I almost certainly won't play 9 weeks worth. I like the idea of a shorter campaign followed by an open league. Perhaps we should make a poll asking what people are feeling most at the moment?
  20. It depends on when I get done with homework but I may be able to bring down a Scottish warband a bit later for you guys to learn with. Might not come out until 9 or so though so we will see.
  21. I told JT I would run demos of a game you all hate today. But perhaps after I can do a demo of something you might love such as Arena Rex.
  22. Haqq $250 Pano $200 Nomads $200 Ariadna $200 Yujing (including JSA) $250 Aleph $100 He wants to sell them complete. I can ask exactly what models are in each lot if anybody is interested as I know that it's kind of hard to see amidst the mass of models in the picture
  23. My buddy is offloading a lot of his excess infinity stuff. We will be starting a league in mid August so here is a good jumping off point. He has every faction and lots of them with the exception of Tohaa and combined army. He's letting go of them for crazy cheap. If you have some questions let me know and I can get more details.
