Fix Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 It's pretty unlikely. We're probably looking at 7 Nomads, 7 PanO, and an O-12 commissioner. With all the new sculpts they've been doing, it'll be a great looking set. The big question is wht set of rules it'll come with. And, of course, what's up with that terrain.

JMGraham Posted June 6, 2014 Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Are you just basing the factions off the colors, or do you have more info you're hiding away? Spill it, man. Spill it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fix Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 A few of the other teaser posts they've made leading up to this reveal have all been from the PanO perspective, mentioning a Nomad raid on their industrial sites. Combine that with the long-running rumors of Svelharma being the next big locale after Paradiso and that's pretty much what we're left with.

Well, the mini rule book looks like infinity 3rd ed, what with that logo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fix Posted June 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2014 Well, the mini rule book looks like infinity 3rd ed, what with that logo. Doh. The one that says "3rd edition quickstart rules?" Yeah, this is a toughie all right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fix Posted June 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2014 Nomads it is. Pan O it is. Evidently they are giving it away as a tourney prize at the end of July, so coming soon! They have also confirmed that it's all metal. Also coming at Gencon: Stars and stripes and motorbikes? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fix Posted July 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2014 Copied from Dakka: Most excellent. BoW is supposed to have coverage, but they take their time posting it. In the meantime, it looks like at least one place in Spain has Icestorm up for pre-order http://www.e-minis.net/juegos-reglamentos/operation-icestorm-edicion-limitada-miniatura-exclusiva-p-67890.html and the Warstore too http://www.thewarstore.com/product93647.html for $100.99 The book contents are described on the Spanish site. Since I am a nice guy most of the time, a translation of sorts... It is 64 pages, 32 in English, 32 in Spanish. It includes a short guide to the Infinity universe, 5 tutorial missions, backgrounds and profiles for all the miniatures included-- including the 3 new profiles-- and the rules to play them. And advice on how to get deeper into the game. By way of comparison, the complete ruleset dowload is 57 pages. And this book will have art as well as the background material, so who knows how complete it will be. It will have Camo and Airborne deployment rules. So it looks like you won't be getting by with just the mini-rulebook from this set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nathonicus Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 Nice! I wasn't aware that it was going to be all new sculpts. Knocked it out of the park on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fix Posted July 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 That Alguacil has sculpted cornrows. In metal. This set is ridiculous. This technology is insane. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fix Posted July 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 FYI: Anyone who is going to be pre-ordering this set (which gets them the Limited Edition corporate security bodyguard model) might want to get on that preorder, because they're only doing 5,000 copies of that model. There will still be more of the starter box, but once they run through that first run, she's out of it. Just noticed I didn't include her with the pics above. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergentzimm Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 Are you pre-ordering that directly from the company or through Dark Tower? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nathonicus Posted July 29, 2014 Report Share Posted July 29, 2014 Yeah, Gene said they would get it through The warstore if necessary. Really didn't want to preorder, but with that mini I must. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattS Posted August 2, 2014 Report Share Posted August 2, 2014 For those in the Portland/Vancouver area the Portland WarCors already got one of these and was demoing it already. I was playing another player but was next to where they were demoing the set and the components are amazing. Those cardboard buildings can use your old unit brown boxes to slip inside to give structural support. People were certainly having fun and there was some amusing stuff happening with the CSU. She acts as a Total Reaction enemy in the center of the board and was up on a crate in one scenario and the PanO player first thing he does is shoots her, hits she saves but fails her Guts roll so she fell off the crate away from him so she has a crate between her and PanO but now she has clear LoF to the Nomads side and has cover! It was hard not to laugh at my buddy playing the Nomads. So in other words on Thursdays and maybe Saturday evenings you can catch Jake at Red Castle.
