was the USadriana just a refresh and rebalance update? or actual new units or something
>>97181083It's going to be a relaunch of them, they're currently not a sectorial in the game.
>>97181229They're playable, but no models atm
>>97179576>Thus of ould>Thus now
>>97179632Bent.
>>97181069Always hates that SMG box. It's so big and goofy, it doesn't really make sense either because the SMG is using a regular mag so what's the point of the massive assembly?
>>97181083Full relaunch, like with MO or Bakunin.
>>97183308The point is that you don't need to reload, ever.>but what about jams?That's unpatriotic talk.
>>97183954>>but what about jams?You just fire the next bullet and the problem solves itself.
>>97183974You just shoot 100% more bullet per bullet!
>>97179624Woah, another new mini for the french! CB, you spoil me!
>>97183954But it has a regular SMG magazine sticking right out. I understand the idea is to have a belt fed or whatever SMG. But it's not that, it's just a normal SMG in a massive, bulky and frankly ugly assembly for the sake of it
>>97185187You're just too much of a communist to understand superior American Engineering!
Why does Haqqislam have two fliers when other factions have one at most?

What's the consensus on Warcrow?The Llanowar fanboy in me always wanted forest elves that didn't suck(say, like being an army of skirmish units in a rank and file game, or stuck with some other aesthetic mixed in). Is this a good game for it, or is it going the way of aristeia?
>>97189001>Is this a good game for it, or is it going the way of aristeia?Aristeia is a great game that brain-fried zoomers ditched because it was "abandoned" (i.e. complete and not being constantly changed and fucked with). Still, it did have a long streak, we'll see what happens to the new one and if they fuck it up to appeal to the retarded masses.Warcrow... well, if I heard any discussion about it except for a peep or two when a release happens, I could decide. As it is, it seems DOA.
>>97189001Our group had enough people interested about it to hold a small "tournament".
>>97189062I mean I still have my Aristeia stuff and am down to play it any time. I just can't generate a national level meta for it on my own. I'll probably just go ahead and buy in to Syenann anyway for the models, the near lack of peeps is a concern though. Thanks for the response.
>>97189062From what I've seen it's popular with fantasy normies. There isn't a big overlap with Infinity.
>>97189665I would've checked it out if it actually mirrored a fantasy version of infinityyes with the chinks and japs
>>97189873>fantasy chineseEw.
>>97190981I never really got the attitude with having disgust toward factions, it just gives you an excuse to use YOUR army to smash another guy's army
>>97190992But then if you lose you feel twice as bad
who?
>>97193191Weeb space bar & grill?
>>97193191Ruby Monday
We're gonna get a unit for every weekday, right?
>>97193191>>97193273>Ruby MondayLove that place. Great food, friendly atmosphere, and the owner kicks out any gays she finds
>>97193191>>97193273>>97193868?
>>97188639Is she a reference? I think so, but I can't place the original character.

Can we PLEASE stop putting humans in my alien army? Can we PLEASE STOP PUTTING HUMANS IN MY ALIEN ARMY?
>>97201625I mean, this guy >>97195100 looks anything but human. I wonder what's up with the EI making all the men ugly and mutated-looking while turning the women into hotties.
>>97201625That's literally the whole point of Next Wave. It's the human defector ghetto
Do we have any Next Wave previews of units that aren't in the starter/TAG/Glyph boxes? Specifically looking for the units below. For ex-Aleph characters, assume I'm asking about their alienized look.GearheadStingerKydoimos (Drakios' bot)TeucerWraith-1PatroclusKazurabaSartroidsSkyhound
>>97201805>male power fantasy vs. female power fantasy
>>97202073Upcoming expansion pack has Patroclus and Teucer(with another contrabandolero)
>>97201805>new character for Next Wave
>>97193191According to around 10 min mark >>97200841>Ruby Monday is a super-cool character...you'll get to know more about her in the coming months, especially around the New Year, she's not just a side character
>>97189062I really want to try the game but I keep hearing a new version is around the corner. If they are going to update it I want to play the updated game
>>97204564Unlike 40K, rules updates are free in Infinity.
>>97204564N5 just came out, N6 is unlikely to be around the corner.
>>97204569>>97204579I meant Aristeia
I checked out that rather uneventful AMA that one anon posted, but I did notice that there were different terrain cultures when it came to the US and EU? US table set ups tend to have more terrain and poor lines of sight, while EU tables tend to have big sightlines?
>>97205113It's an ancient tradition. Americans play in shotgun labyrinths while euros play in open fields of tactics
Are the Military Orders particularly strong? I've just started and played a few practice games with a couple friends and have nearly tabled every time with them. These were low-point games
>>97205429Not really? What were you playing?
>>972054293 Crosier1 Knight Commander1 Infirmarer1 Knight Hospitalier
>>97205113
>>97206423I dont get this, in cyberpunkcity beig cities wouldnt bottom be more likely? while the top is some colony outposts?
>>97204784Ah lol, then yes I would wait unless you can get the old edition on the cheap. It's still perfectly playable. Or you can play the videogame once it comes out.
>>97206848Technically yes, but game-wise it'd all be SMGs and shotguns and templates all the time, also a big part of why chain rifles were considered OP for a long time.Also, cyberpunk Kowloon is the meme, but the actual battles do take part in less developed areas, they're deniable black ops not something that's gonna go viral on Maya in 30 seconds in from multiple angles (why do we still not have decent crowd rules anyway?)
>>97206848Or a city square in a cyberpunk main square
>>97207466I would also like environmental rules like throwing people off cliffs and how hard some one has to roll to save a forced fall
>>97208116What next, absurd requests like "fire should burn camo"?
>>97208171it depends, but this is the type of setting where conventional and mgs5 style octo camo exist innit?
Is it true that the Caledonian highlander army is brutal now? Is that a step up from their legacy or consistent with the past?
If I wanted to play the Japs, their game plan is to get into melee right?
>>97209465My plan is to jam samurais and punks.
>>97209158Combi A... wait no, nvm, wrong mini.
>>97209465Close range first, and melee second. It's a last resort kinda thing, but you're better equipped than other armies if it comes to it. At least speaking generically.
>>97209933>better equipped than other armiesYJ bros....the CC tax...
>>97210214Sorry, chinaman, but only one guy can be the best :^)
What the fuck is a thunderbolt? Is it like a marksman rifle? HMG range band, shotgun damage, burst 2 and zero special rules or ammo. Even the contender has at least T2 ammo
>>97210281It's a backup long-range gun so you don't pay the burst tax.No fucking idea what it is in the lore or what it looks like, last I checked CB avoided releasing thunderbolt loadouts like the plague so maybe they don't know either.
>>97210252Torn between YJ (the best and only good faction) and the Japs (look cool as fuck).
>>97211275Only good faction is CA tho
>>97211299>what are the umbras and nexus operatives
>>97211625Why, a brave diplomat and hero of the people :)
>>97211940:)
>>97212415:O
>>97211275There's no difference the "uprising" never happened, it's a PanOid psyop
>>97210508It's fucking stupid they won't decide on what it looks like. They have the art talent, why not pull the trigger?
>>97215006I saw this thing listed for almost a hundred bucks. What happened, is Long Wang highly playable?
>>97215382was it painted?
>>97215550I was trying to find some good deals on small time online shops and came across one that was selling this boy for ninety, but the rest of their tags were in the 40s. I didn't get why that one was marked so high, just guessing it was because of low supply and high demand in their area.
>>97179632Cool ass spec ops and cowboy werewolves. And more Blackjacks.
Asked for a Maximus and a handful of other infinity minis for christmas. I'm most excited to get my hands on a Max and paint him up for Kestrels. Anyone see any good examples of Max as a Pano? This ones kinda nice, but I'd probably execute a different pattern.
>>97218035It's not a bad scheme though.
why are the robotic karakuri HI instead of REM?
>>97218035I mean, the Aristeia paintjobs are right there
>>97218151Superior nipponese robowaifus, folded over mirrion times!
>>97218035>Anyone see any good examples of Max as a Pano?Moto.Tronica is PanO, and PanO is Moto.Tronica.
>>97218151So are the hollow men even though they are literally remotely operated
>>97218151Hollow men and su-jian are also HI. The cutoff is that human-sized REMs or remotely piloted suits of armor are HI, which is also why the zond is a REM and not HI as it's not a suit of armor, despite transforming like the su-jian
>>97220278Also K2 Auxiliars(though it's the weeniest HI out there)
>>97220106>Excellent fighters?>No! Wound Incapacitation!
>>97218151Because stats. They wanted to stress it's a combat-oriented model, without the penalty to dodge and other shit associated with REM classification.
>>97219608Annoying they sculpted the model with such a clean haircut.
>>97222250Mu animu spike hair
>>97221900Why not just give bonus to dodge?
>>97227302No such thing in N2
>>97228073Yet CB has had little trouble moving other troop types around as neccessary. LI to MI. WB to HI. Yet never HI to REM
>>97229692The old>I will field 10 ninjasnoob trap
>>97227302>and other shit associated with REM classification.REMs have two restrictions and can b targeted by two extra Hacking Programs.https://infinitythewiki.com/Restrictions_Charthttps://infinitythewiki.com/Hacking_Programs_Chart
>>97229692There's enough variety of cyborg ninjas in this setting you could have a Sekiro like, I sear.
>>97233259I actually prefer the cyber samurais
>>97233265yeah there's room for them too, mate. I reckon a Infinity would make a great game setting.
>>97233670>the weeb levels in this thread are approaching unacceptable levels! Cease!>fuck you baka gaijin!
>>97234069and then notnecrons show up on shinju tryin to get all these fuckin monkies off their lawn
>>97234075But enough about Tohaa
>>97233670Why's the griffin holding the SMG like a club>>97234075But enough about YJ
>>97234257WIP 12
merry christmasIm enjoying it with jeannu
>>97234628Hands off from my wife!
>>97234628My friend got the gift of infinity. He asked what I wanted and I said "infinity." Can't wait to see what he picked out.
>>97236902>what did it cost you?>everything
why is pano like this?
I wish I had enough greenstuff molding skill to really add into baldsculpt's hair
>>97241112I prefer baldie tbqh
>>97241112He mastered the sword because he couldn't master his hair
>>97243366Why do you think he uses a wig?
>>97207466In my experience in an american meta, snipers and other long range guns(flammenspeers, panzerfausts) can still be really good, just more situational. The way my boards are set up, sniper nests usually have sightlines to at least one key point, but you have to choose which one you want to watch over, so sometimes its worth keeping in reserve to see where enemies are placing their offensive pushers. That said, my local meta does complain about morats, so you probably have a point
>>97250924Too much cake!
>>97251977There were some memeworthy american shotgun labyrinths posted from time to time, it's outright comical.
>>97253682>>97251977what about stages with more vault able cover? like barriers now there is a clarification that you dont need to jump over near chest height barricades
why does team achilles get everything, even above their CA allies?
>>97254561Who's gonna stop him? Team Edward?
>>97254618shiny norkias...
>>97256971ALEPH has no chill
So if one wanted to binge on lore, particularly the latest shift from starting lore, what would be the place to look?
>>97258184Here: https://store.corvusbelli.com/en/books/lore
newfag but I dont see a whole lot of terrain taking place inside shipsis it that rare?
>>97260012I'm mostly a newfag myself so someone else jumo in if I'm wrong, but afaik it's a twofold "issue">1. The game heavily involves verticality, meaning a corridor blaster map would drastically unbalance things >2. Any ship important enough to have cyberpunk glow-ops happening on-board is going to have big enough hab-spaces that standars city terrain could cover it
>>97260068could be a bigger ship going through a hanger (for tags and vehicles) and/or the cargo bay to get some of that verticality
>>97259269Love all of these. Such a cool design. It's classic.
>>97257679As many belts as a Kingdom Hearts protagonist
>>97260012It can be fun for specific games with tailored lists but the game is meant to be played in more open spaces. Boarding stuff means ARO galore and HMGs/snipers basically become useless.
>>97260388>HMGs/snipers basically become useless.dont list normally have some other loadouts just incase?
>>97258261Cool.Are those in the archive?
>>97260087"Ships in a bigger ship's hanger" is basically going to behave the same as "ship docking at a harbor" map, which I've played on before. Which is fine and would be cool to play on if someone modeled it, but it's a far cry from the corridor-fest of >>97260012
>>97260012As stated, it's not really open enough for general use. You could dedicate a part of the map for bulkhead/base and have them littered with corridors tho
>>97261091Nope, only some of the very oldest ones.
>>97260497Yeah, but not every faction is balanced on not being able to use their long-range tools.
>>97260154ALEPH studied human history and found out that more belts = more combat effectiveness
I want to start playing infinity, whats the army with the bigger boobs?Also, i got the essentials pack and holy shit CB needs to step up their easy of assembly game, thats why infinity is not more popular. I do prefer metal minis tho, i hope the don't transition to plastic or that siocast stuff.
>>97264487Aleph, see Asura
>>97264487Essentials pack is early third edition stuff for PanO and late third edition stuff for japs. You should see some of the first and secodn edition models, those were "fun".
>>97264640I want some real titties, not some clanker shit>>97266471Damn i can't imagine it being worse than it is.
>>97266512Oh you sweet summer child...
>>97266471The hsien antennas will continue until morale improves.
>>97266859>hsien antennasToo easy, try the arms on the Wulvers with the 2H sword.
>>97267208I wish there were more two handed swords on the JSA side >but katanas areI NEED THEM BIGGER
>>97267208Yeah, you try aligning these fucking things.
>>97266512>Damn i can't imagine it being worse than it is.Hello
are there any BIG shot guns for tags? like its a 2B large teardrop high tier ammo kinda rape
>>97268107Popsicle stick to set the alignment plane and a pair of tweezers for fine adjustment will do the job. 3x2 independent joints that can be aligned one at a time is a hell of a lot easier than four joints that all have to be aligned at once.
>>97268107Goddamn, even holding the miniature it would almost make more sense to scan it and print it as a whole.Too bad (for me, good for CB) Infinity is basically either not existent or extremely well gatekept as far as scans go.
>>97264487>whats the army with the bigger boobs?Tohaa (Gorgos Pilot, Sukeuls, Igao)>>97268342Scans are even more niche than 3D printing proxies, and there aren't too many of those for Infinity.
>>97268297>Popsicle stick to set the alignment plane and a pair of tweezers for fine adjustment will do the job.If we're talking each of 3 pairs and not each side, it's actually a great idea.
>>97269529>TohaaLooks good but its dead sadly
Happy 2026, thread! One year closer to reaching the stars!
>>97275096Year of the Tohaa
year of the uma, year of cyber horses and other mounts
>>97276209Human-centaur cyborg vehicle would kinda fit the vibe Next Wave is going for...
what would happen if hover bikes
>>97276762That's illegal!
Happy New Year guys!
>>97275849
some one tell me, a newfaggot, why tohaa were shoved into the bin and why (you) want them back (or not)
>>97275849Year of the Horse not Ywar of the Whores. Easy mistake to make, I know
>>97279117>why tohaa were shoved into the binThey sold like shit>why (you) want them backBig boobs and OP rules
>>97279291>Big boobs and OP ruleswhat are the chances of this staying there when they get a refresh?
>>97279117>why tohaa were shoved into the binBecause we can't have nice things.>and why (you) want them back (or not)After the nu-Morat shit I have little confidence. I just have to grab Sukeuls/Gorgos somewhere and I'll have the entire lineup anyway.
That feel when I am so disgusted at the state of the West. Can't bring myself to play pank. How are yujing or JSA?
>>97282137yujing like having a handful of super friends who can do everything and 4-5 dick riders for ordergen japs are okay at things, but can threaten high end melee with flavors of vis control or decent hacking
>>97282137YJ probably has the least shitty resculpts and n4/n5 sculpts compared to the rest of the catalogue. JSA is close behind them, but I'm personally not a fan of some of their models. Either way, you can't go wrong with either.
>>97282137The real answer is Haqqislam ofc, walah!
>>97283769He said he was tired of western european factions thobeight
>>97283797He said he was tired of the West althoughbeit
>>97281124Poland lost
>>97286317Is the cat helmet really neccessary?
>>97286547God I hate zoomzooms
>>97286317No, and it's trivial to file down the ears if you hate it.
>>97286972Me too, but answer the question.
>>97289258>t. zoomzoom
>>97289702t.ourist
>>97289751Ironic, coming from the guy who can't recognize why Kuroshi has cat ears and a scythe.
>>97289758Sorry for not being a terminally online weeb. I'm sure whatever show that is referencing was all the rage in your anime subreddit ten years ago.
>>97289826>finally admits he's a zoomzoom
>>97290034Where?
>>97286547I dig it, way more than the scythe.
>>97290890What other CC weapon fits a motorcycle? Remember, CC is mandatory in nippon.
>>97290923The answer is, as always, katana.
>>97291249Too short. You're going to need a bigger sword.
>>97291415isnt that what yojimmyjimbojameyjames has?
>>97290923A lance
>>97286547>>97290890It's another one of CB's anime "inspired" sculpts.
>>97291846I know anon, even though I didn't watch that anime (or animes in general outside GitS). Just saying, I still don't like the scythe, original or not.
>>97291824We're not playing knights, anon
>>97292063Samurai are literally knights. Nevermind the actual PanO knights that also exist.
>>97292072No they're not. They're samurai. Samurai are comparatively or relatively knights, but they're not literally knights.>Nevermind the actual PanO knights that also exist.Then they can have a lance. They're plenty of japanese spears and cavalry weapons you could've gone with if you wanted something other than the Durarara reference scythe.
>>97292176also odachi have also been a thing for horse back the entire point of the sode shoulder pieces was to create a triangle with the samurai helmet and allow the charging samurai to two hand their weapon
>>97292796Yeah I was too lazy to list actual samurai horseback weapons, but I know of a few. Odachi specifically I learned about from For Honor funnily enough, where they mentioned Kensei are so good at swordplay they're able to use Odachi on foot despite it being a horseback weapon.
>>97292176What even are the meaningful differences anon? Both are landed nobility, acting as heavily armed and armored soldiers, on foot and on horseback. Both have ties of fealty to higher ranked nobles. Both have the esclusive right to use or carry certain kinds of weapons. Sure, one used lances and the other bows, but that's hardly a radical difference. I mean, 14th century English knights fought dismounted, and they were still knights.
>>97294735>arr look the same
>>97294735The difference is that you are stuck with rice walls which are literally paper thin and you can hear what everyone is saying or doing at any time. For your whole life.So it breeds a different mindset and attitude.
>>97294735the reality about chivalry and bushido are they're both written up by combat inexperienced nobles which are QUICKLY forgotten the MOMENT shit gets tough
>>97294052Still need to get around to reposing my broken tags. I wanted to do this one shooting but the leg pose is hard to work with without it looking just like I swapped arms around.
Im forever grateful of infinity JSAI wanted to play a miniatures game for a long time, but my weeb heart cannot stand the ranged focused butthole faced Tau for existing even their ONE melee character has a looted sword such a dishonooooorrable
>>97189001WC is great imo. I play it with my buddy and we always have a blast. He plays elves and I play Orks. Game is fantastic mechanically. I've come from Kill Team and wanted a better skirmish game... I found it. One thing though: since it's relatively new, there aren't that many preset scenarios/missions. This isn't a big problem for us since we like making our own, but I can see how that's a downside for others.
>>97297137The Tau are just NATO tho. Yeah, with the most superficial coat of honorabru Japan, but nothing of their doctrine
