    The Grid

    They really need to get their translation team to clean up the language in this scenario, not to mention the other million and a half mistakes in the current ITS rule pack.
  2. Thanks :D I'm gonna see if I can find one when I'm out and about today, but I'll take you up on that for now.
  3. Come to the event and eat our food.
  4. Thanks for the advice! It does suck, but it's hereditary so I knew it was probably coming.
  5. I'd like to say that I get to stay home and paint models, as I'm having my first gout flare up. Sadly, I have to work a bunch. With any luck I'll at least get some work started on the Anaconda or a few other models.
  6. Thinking of something like this for next week: Force de Réponse Rapide Merovingienne ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 10 PARA-COMMANDO HMG / Pistol, Knife. (1 | 31) KNAUF MULTI Sniper / Heavy Pistol, Knife. (1.5 | 32) CHASSEUR (Forward Observer) Rifle, Light Flamethrower, Antipersonnel Mines / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 20) CHASSEUR (Forward Observer) Rifle, Light Flamethrower, Antipersonnel Mines / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 20) CHASSEUR (Minelayer) Rifle, Light Flamethrower, Antipersonnel Mines / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 20) ZOUAVE Paramedic (MediKit) Rifle, D.E.P. / Assault Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 22) ZOUAVE Paramedic (MediKit) Rifle, D.E.P. / Assault Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 22) 112 Light Shotgun / Pistol, CCW. (0 | 12) 112 Light Shotgun / Pistol, CCW. (0 | 12) MÉTRO Lieutenant Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 8) 4 SWC | 199 Points Open in Infinity Army I need to see if anyone local has a Knauf laying around that I can pick up, as I'm not sure that I have a suitable substitute to convert. Leaving him in FRRM was a nice gesture on CB's part, since they will not be updating the rest of the army anytime soon. He packs a lot of punch and brings something unique to the army. The Paratrooper HMG is a great piece wether he drops in or not. For 31 points an HMG-toting model with mimitism isn't a bad deal, and if the board looks right for it then he can walk on and hold down a board edge in suppressive.
  7. I'm morally against bring M5 in anything below 250 points :D Still, they will see the board soon. Week 2 list: Force de Réponse Rapide Merovingienne ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 10 MÉTRO Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 8) MÉTRO Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 8) MÉTRO Lieutenant Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 8) DOZER (Traktor Mul Control Device) Rifle, D-Charges / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 14) TRAKTOR MUL (Total Reaction) Uragan MRL / Electric Pulse. (1 | 18) ZOUAVE Paramedic (MediKit) Rifle, D.E.P. / Assault Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 22) CHASSEUR (Minelayer) Rifle, Light Flamethrower, Antipersonnel Mines / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 20) CHASSEUR Rifle, Adhesive Launcher, D-Charges / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 19) MOBLOT (Infiltration) AP Rifle, Light Shotgun, D.E.P. / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 29) MOBLOT (Infiltration) AP Rifle, Light Shotgun, D.E.P. / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 29) 2.5 SWC | 175 Points Open in Infinity Army Half the army starts in the midfield, which partially makes up for the lack of long-range support. Things I learned: -Infiltrating Moblots are awesome, but like the rest of the FRRM army they are fragile. From a shooting stand point they are mini Van Zants with extra weapons, so that can't be discounted. -Urugan Rocket Launcher is great if you have the points. This thing isn't going to wow you in every game, but the toolbox it comes with is great. TR makes it a great back-field defender, spec shot gives you a way to threaten otherwise un-approachable enemies, and burst 3 impact templates is hilarious. If I had brought it in a list with forward observers than it would have been even better. -Zouaves are solid, but they cost SWC FOR NO REASON! Starting halfway up the board with an assault-pistol wielding specialist is great, but the 0.5 SWC tax makes them a pain to fit into lists. -3 man Metro link continues to kill more than it should be capable of, even when that means critting twice on 1's from all the way across the board.
  8. Yeah, but its fun to imagine. I play for the imaginary cinematics!
  9. Same with Wallace, Krakot Renegades, Tuetons, Domaru, and Ajax. I think that's all of them.
  10. If you really want to have some fun playing The Grid then bring any model with anti-material CC weapons (or d-charges) and the berserk/assault skill. Move within 8" of the closest antenna and then assault your way up the board while wrecking all the objectives in your path! Admittedly it will never happen, but it would be a blast.
  11. Or, Jeff, if you can make Thursday night at F&F I can pick them up from you there.
  12. So this league it's going to be all about the Frenchies! Tonight's scenario was king 'o da hill, and I brought this list: Force de Réponse Rapide Merovingienne ────────────────────────────────────────────────── 9 ANACONDA Spitfire + Light Flamethrower, Panzerfaust / CCW. (2 | 62) OPERATOR Spitfire / Pistol, Knife. (- | 0) MÉTRO Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 8) MÉTRO Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 8) MÉTRO Lieutenant Rifle / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 8) CHASSEUR (Minelayer) Rifle, Light Flamethrower, Antipersonnel Mines / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 20) CHASSEUR (Minelayer) Rifle, Light Flamethrower, Antipersonnel Mines / Pistol, Knife. (0.5 | 20) DOZER (Traktor Mul Control Device) Rifle, D-Charges / Pistol, Knife. (0 | 14) TRAKTOR MUL (Minesweeper) Electric Pulse. (0 | 5) TRAKTOR MUL (Minesweeper) Electric Pulse. (0 | 5) 3 SWC | 150 Points Open in Infinity Army The Anaconda did alright, but I was super aggressive with it and lost it fairly early on in both games. The surprising hammer tonight was the humble link of 3 basic metros who were rolling link kings and took down quite a few enemy models. In the end I won one and lost one, but had a great time in both games. There are a bunch of models I need to pick up to increase the size of my FRRM, but for now I'll be working with what I've got. Because of that lists will probably follow the same basic structure of the one above until I pick up some more Metros and either Briscards or Loup- Garou. Depending on the week I can alternate out the Anaconda for Margot and Duroc, but they might be a little much for anything below 200 points.
  13. Thanks everyone who came to game night, we had a TON of people tonight! Big thanks to Brendan (Brandon? I'm terrible with names) and Eric for the games!
  14. *Sharpens a baguette in anticipation*
  15. This format is a nightmare for deleting quotes! Anywho, Jeff, there will be many gluttons for punishment this league.
  16. Package came in a full 4 days early, something I never expected. Models assembled!

    The Grid

    My understanding is that successfully using the forward observe skill will designate the antenna.
  18. Ordered up a surprise for the escalation league, hopefully it will get here by Sunday!
  19. I am just now noticing, shouldn't this be for 2017?
