>>96719743Tell me, why does she ride the log?
>>96719859humanity EVOLVED in order to ride logs
>>96719859Same reason Tao Pai Pai throws and rides a pillar.
>>96719743Why does her armour have a little chin protrusion like a Gundam?
I don't wanna be a slave of an alien technogod
>>96720551its not slavery if they give you what you want
>>96720838I'm sick of sidecuts, especially in things anime inspired. You did not see every third chick with a sidecut in ghost in the shell.
>>96720849I mean a little bit of greenstuff and very light knife work can do wonders innit
>>96720838>guys all have huge fucking dick bulges>girls all have their asses covered
>>96720894I agree, all of them should have massive dick bulges.
>>96720894>>96720904m-mankind.... evolved?
>>96720904I won't look askance at a girl with a massive dick bulge, but I demand to see her fat ass wrapped in her bodysuit too.
>>96719743What do you think she smells like after riding the biomech in battle for a few hours?
>>96721093I mean have you tried asking the CB:I ai chick if the EI take baths?it is a achillies' folks after all
>>96720948>>96721120I really like these small unit reviews, who makes them?
>>96721127io dunno I just took them from the last thread
>>96720296>EI: join CA and we'll turn you into a gundam and give you your own zoid to rideCan't deny that it's a strong as hell recruitment tactic
Just in case you didn't know, achilles, who's already widely used, really needed a buff, so he's now 10pts cheaper (for vanilla too).
These guys have 3 great loadouts (I completely agree with the commentary here), the rest are shit.
>>96721344Can you still play it in Aleph?
>>96721359No, all of the traitor Phallus members have already been removed.
>>96721362It's so over...
>>96720838>the Ironside is Techno-Organic>the only other units with it are the Juggernaut and the SteeljawWhat does he look like under that armour? Is he secretly a space furry?
>>96721357Is Harbinger 3 Leon Kennedy?
>>96721457>under the armor>he doesn't knowAnon...
>>96721357>>96721779Man, it's a shame that I don't much care for these two units, since hackers are important and you need line troops. Because every other model in the faction is pretty damn great
>>96720948> Look very technorganic> Don't have the ruleWah?
>>96721296Almost looks like Infinity the Dante's classic power point format
>>96721817the belly is exposed!
>>96721357What's a wildparrot
>>96720904A man of culture, I see
>>96721848Another weapon stolen from PanO
>>96721855Which does
>>96721865PS7 E/M Half BTS DA mine. More or less.
>>96721865E/M mine without camo that can walk when deployed
>>96721362Is there any website that has older versions of Army still available? Or something like that?

Anybody knows what's happening with Acheron's Fall? Always thought it looked mildly interesting, but I can't seem to find any remotely recent updates about it
>>96722366https://gamefound.com/en/projects/ramperdesign/acherons-fall/updates
>>96722366I believe they started production in august, they should ship before the end of the year.
>>96722437Probably gonna buy this model even if I have no intention of running it, goddamn
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LfbUdwj80Y&t=536s
>>96722628It's a LE-model.
>>96722863LE as in comes with the first batch of the action pack, an "event exclusive" sold in separate box like all similar releases, or an ITS pack exclusive?
>>96722708the juggernaut is soishit, isn't it
>>96722863And it looks like it's exclusively bundled with Next Wave pre-orders, damn.
>>96722984It's a pre-order LE.
>>96722984>>96723044Maybe they'll eventually release a different posed version of the model as they've done in the past
>>96721897>>96721916That's cool
>>96721492No way fag
>>96721492Probably not, because CB would have put other RE references there
When's the official Human Wave release date anyway?
>>96723815>If you’re among the first to place your order, you’ll get early access and receive your products one month before everyone else.November sounds like
>>96721120>have you tried asking the CB:I ai chick if the EI take baths?I remember some proompters in here wrangling the bellibot into writing Joan softporn shortly after it came out.
>>96723031You must be out of touch. Everything S6+ switched to Unicool a while back.The Steeljaw is, though.>>96723044>exclusively bundledNah, you can just buy it. https://store.corvusbelli.com/en/infinity/wargame/miniatures/glyph-warcor-pre-order-exclusive-edition
>>96725635I might have inaccurate info, but the Juggernaut looks slightly brownish like soishit is, and the Tekdraken is bluish.
>>96725635The Steeljaw is also Unicool. He says it in the video.
>>96725635>Nah, you can just buy it. https://store.corvusbelli.com/en/infinity/wargame/miniatures/glyph-warcor-pre-order-exclusive-editionThat's very nice of CB, but doesn't that kinda defeat the point of having a pre-order exclusive mini if you can just order it? Lol. I guess if you order the whole bundle you get it for free, but still.
>>96725635>>96725699>No other civilization has so many news agencies, nor ones that are so objective, because for Evolved Intelligence they are the yardstick that allows it to continuously improve its society.Repeat after me:GOODGUYS
>>96725666You don't have to guess, it's in the description on the store.>https://store.corvusbelli.com/en/infinity/wargame/miniatures/juggernauts-armored-assault-brigade-multi-hmg>This box includes a plastic resin miniature of a JuggernautPlastic Resin is CB-speak for Unicool, Thermoplastic is Siocast.>>96725673Odd, the store description claims it's thermoplastic.>https://store.corvusbelli.com/en/infinity/wargame/packs/next-wave-action-pack>Some of the miniatures in this product are made of thermoplastic.
>>96725804Sandtrap is also marked as being part thermal plastic and as far as I know it's only some places or batches where the backpacks are thermal plastic. Because all mine came as metal. So it might be some backpacks are thermoplastic again. The Steeljaw definitely has the sheen of a unicool mini in the video though. CB's dogshit siocast doesnt get that sheen from my experience.
>>96725785honestly it can be both at the same time until they clarifyit really depends on if you think achilles and pandora's plans are sound
>>96726296What fiendish plans...
>>96725635Sadly I live somewhere CB doesn't ship to and the only redistributor I know of only sells the bundle. Hopefully I can nab it off ebay eventually, I guess
>>96725635>https://store.corvusbelli.com/en/infinity/wargame/miniatures/glyph-warcor-pre-order-exclusive-edition>22.5 EUR for a single S2 modelI checked my CB order history to see how long it's been since I ordered something from them, and it was depressing to recall that 6 years ago a single S2 blister was only 14.5 EUR.
newfaggot JSA player here, what is the most ideal scenario to use smoke/eclipse? behind full cover and using speculative bs attack and hoping to make the roll? shooting behind partial cover and triggering an ARO? can I ARO with these visibility control options? Im still picking between shiny shindenbutai and oban
>>96727385Slice the pie by getting the most miniscule LOS of whe you need the center of the smoke and thrown it unopposed.. Defensive smokes are last resorts when you get shot.
>>96727525its so toit
>eclipse gernade lawnchairs>discoballers
>>96722457>Research Fireteam>Pandora + 4 Tekdrakens>plus twin Jug Heavies teamSure it's only 30-odd points left over for actually useful shit, but consider: six space lizards. The Juggernaut steed is called a Proto-Lion but what's catlike about it?
>>96729150more snow lion or soemething
>>96720849Full-volume long hair is no longer kosher.
>>96729295siiiiiiiigggggh, what happened, I blame cyberpunk
>>96729295If you swapped the purple our for red this chick would look straight out of OCF/Next Wave. Since the design is from 2017, I wonder if the idea was "what if we made ALEPH Ko Dali?".
>>96727093>14.5 EUR 6 years agoThat's around 18 EUR in today's money. Inflation.
>>96729543Poor Ko Dali...Her joining CA was so long ago people forget she ever was YJ and now Achilles and co. stole her game.
>>96730290Bit and KISS are there too I guess.
>>96730295For me it was Switch.
>>96730298Im surprised they didnt try to shoe horn in Toni Macayana somehow
I can only wish for an xcom lite in you rag tag a sqaud from the major human sphere powers and eventually choose to work with aleph or the EI also achilles and gang will be initial rivals and the more indian inspired aleph sectorial will be the opposite
>>96729543>>96730290So now our girl Kerrigan can go freely home and say hi to the folks?Wow, I’m just revving up for an Infinity:RPG campaign and this throws a very interesting spanner in the works of the Wilderness of Mirrors, especially since they were leaning towards an Aleph-only party which now has an actual political and diplomatic opposition on the Human Sphere scale instead of just the Nomads being fussy.BTW: is there a resource for lore only, or does it have to be picked out piece by piece from the wargame rule updates books?Like…what do the Nomads think of this new faction?Has the UrEgemony already presented a competitor in Aristea?OOOOOOOOh boy this is so awesome
>>96730392I wouldnt be surprised if nomads would also hate this faction and are pure human supremacist
>>96730405Nomad hate everybody on principle, they’re a faction of teenage edgelords.Also they hold grudges and are separate enough from the rest of the Human Sphere to be able to semi-openly disregard a peace treaty with the EI.But maybe the EI has the capability to breach Arachne, which could mean that Aleph might be interested in negotiating the sharing of such technology. Or steal it and reverse-engineer it. Or both. Probably both.Shit. I’m so jacked about this.I’M JACKED TO THE TITS!
Okay, played my first 300p game at LGS. Not exactly full since in two hours we managed to play two turns but still. Annihilation, Kestrel (mine) vs Hassasins. On pic table and my deployment, one Fusilier was proxy for Fennec, later used two Ariadna troops as proxy for two Jackals, Squalo on reserve. These concentrated guys near Griffin ended up receiving two flame-something template weapons right at my first activation, Griffin also some E/M weapon from three hidden deployment guys but, to be honest, I had no idea how could I otherwise place them (was acting first, deploying first). Single activation ended up with Griffin isolated and immobilized, Yamabushi and Fennec paramedic dead. My turn ended with also Squalo isolated and immobilized. Probably would lose in longer run but it was still valuable experience. But full game would probably take 4 hours or something.Used this army list: axZrZXN0cmVsLWNvbG9uaWFsLWZvcmNlEktlc3RyZWwgYWx0IHRha2UgQYEsAgEACgGHDAEFAAKHFQEBAAOHFQECAASGcwEDAAWHEQEEAAaHCwEFAAeHCwEFAAiHCwEKAAmHCwEHAAqHEgEDAAIABQGHFQEFAAKHFQEFAAMkAQMABIcgAQMABYcRAQMA
Forgot pic.
>>96730947A bit too even terrain to my tastes. I prefer to make them more uneven and makes more connected section that block movement and firelanes more.
>>96731963LGS guy was setting the terrain, today we had Infinity planned event and two tables prepared for play.
>>96732013He was probably aiming for "balance", but balancing in Infinity assumes that different table sides have different advantages.

Partially related to CB - I recently glued and primed minis from Eldfall Chronicles which is literally "indie fantasy Infinity" and just want to say that CB should definitely drop Siocast and do Warcrow in Unicool. Difference in quality is so huge it's not even funny and Warcrow being entirely in Siocast is huge disadvantage.
>>96732830Why does the rider look more masculine here?
>>96733057Flatter chest
>>96733384Flat is justice
>>96730392>is there a resource for lore only, or does it have to be picked out piece by piece from the wargame rule updates books?No, but the wargame books have very little in the way of rules nowadays so they're usually just fluff with a few missions stuck in the back.>>96732353Warcrow isn't entirely Siocast, they started using Unicool with the NT/HoE Cavalry and it's already filtered down far enough that half the Song of the Dormant bundle and both the Guardians of the Mounds and the Husks are Unicool (but all the November releases are Siocast, so it's not really a consistent move).
>>96733670I don't think there's much of any rules in the newer books, the only part referring to rules or gamemechanics in the N5-book description is >A themed campaign set in and around the tumultuous events rocking Shinju to its very core. Now you can bring these key moments in the history of the Infinity Universe to your gaming table.
What are y'all going to use in place of the tactical bedrock Juggernaut comes with? Or just keep it?
>>96719743>>96732830I'm real tempted to get this model despite not really being interested in Next Wave. Maybe I could challenge myself to do the elbow blades with oilslick iridescence meme CB used on the ironjaws
now that we're moving to a lot more non humanoid mechasPOST WHICH ONES WOULD BE COOOOOOOOOL
