Infinity General: Rosie Munroe Edition

What's the sawblade on the front of the gun for? The Pitcher?

An infiltration profile wouldn't surprise me, 3 DF fuckers already have them and Grunts have their own infiltration loadout.

I assume so, looks similar to the Yaogat panzerfaust.

I assume she'll have infiltration or inferior infiltration with the HRL/LRL but even so a cheap 5 man link with a rocket launcher sounds fun.

How manly lowly scum have you killed?

Untold numbers.

With the Bandit? I lost count.
Best action was gluing Scarface and then waltzing past him to blast Cordelia in the face with the Shotgun.

If OSS isn't one of the five sectorials, I'm not giving CB another dime.

It won't be. The five sectorials will be two svalarheima, a mercenary, CA, and one other Pan O

OSS is pretty likely considering they already have enough units to run. Kazak is also strong contender.
It's the ones with like 5 units that are a question. Tunguska is likely due to the hype they're building for it, especially with that huge picture of Szalamandra surrounded by other Tunguska units.

>Steel Phalanx - Season 2 Edition

OSS is very unlikely. There was a question about OSS asked at Cancon, to which Bostria replied, "What the fuck is that?"

Blackjacks really need fatality or full auto with those oversized weapons.

Can anyone rehost the Alephbook seminar album for us Nomads?

...

>Acontecimento explodes
wat

Great, now I want to play a Infinity version of Darkest Dungeon, which will never exist. Well done...

FIVE, count em' FIVE sectorials in 2018.

>Varuna
>Sultanate
>Invincible army
>Kazaks
>Tunguska

Only thing that would make even better for me for me is white banner instead of shitty ass power armored Asians.

>Sultanate
That's what QK is. Remaining Haqq factions are Caliphate and Khanate.

Fucking whatever. I don't understand sand people mmkay?

>plasma rifle and pitcher in a fireteam
You are wrong, Carlos, I don't need any new armies. I'm good as it is.

ok maybe if the shasvastii get really cool models

>Shasnasties getting anything

SHASVASTI IN THERE YOB TVAYU MATJ

The glorious army of Varuna, with all of like, 4 models or something.

One can only hope

Yeah, but one of them is Cutter.

Cutter link team

6 models not counting standard remotes and support troops. Remember that they're going to get the Paradiso units as well. Pretty similar to most other prospective sectorials desu.

this is such a letdown compared to the first avatar.

Of which the Caliphate a.k.a. the Ramah Taskforce is way more likely as it's mostly established with many of the new-ish units like the Zhayedan, Khawarij, Maghariba Guard, and Al Fasid.

Weird thing is that they did a much better job with the Charontid design a little later, even if the pose was rather bland for an EI Aspect.

Considering it has about double the number of units as the Khanate, I'd assume so.

>USAriadna spec-ops is a blonde titty monster
I wish I could express how much I love CB.

The biggest mistake CB has made with this release is they haven't already let me give them my money.

The grunts have many long ranged weapons. Rosie adds some mid range firepower, so the Grunts can move closer to the midfield were shotguns and HFT can reallh hurt and cheap FOs take objectives. She'll probably be a specialists of some sort herself. I hope she gets mimetism, BS12, and WIP13

The iron boots of the empire will crush all who stand in its path.

>barely play
>terrible when I do
>still buying more models

>probably has fewer than 1000 models in painting queue

I stopped counting my backlog before Y2K. If I don't think about it, it doesn't exist.

Hey now I want a sectorial for a regular Yu Jing Banner Army as much as the next guy, but Invincible Army is hype as fuck and Invincibles lead the way.

That Dildo handle on the gun.

So my table will start levitating if I stop thinking about what's propping it.

I just hope Shang Ji get some fixes. Aside from Teutons they aged the worst of the old 4-4 HI, they're just bland and offer very little. Even something as simple as MA1 and maybe a grenade profile would help, though I'd prefer a look at what they're actually supposed to do within the faction.

Why are devil dogs such shit compared to every other antipode unit?

Because they're American.

Devil Dogs are amazing.

Army Box for Military Orders confirmed?

More units for the sectorial obviously!

Hmm, can't make the points match for 300 points with those loadouts. Like 307 points total.

Yeah, looks like it, but it always ends up 5-9pts over limit for me. Unless you take Boarding Shotgun Crusader instead of MR + Light Ft, then it adds up.

Yeah, or demote the hacker sergeant to combi profile.

I have around 90$ right now, what is a good army to get in to first, if your a total noob?

Pretty much any of them? Some rely more to more exotic tactics, like Tohaa, but try to pick a force you like the looks of first and foremost.

New Asawira spitfire's pretty dope, but he kinda looks like a cockroach hunching over like that.

I like how the fusiliers look like, very greek. how viable is an army with a lot of those? I also like bogu mahari models, they look a lot like divers, and my father was a diver in his youth.

I like the pose. Kind of similar to the new SMR Ayyar, but I'm fine with that because my SMR Ayyar probably won't be painted for quite a while...

PqnO, any PanO, is easier to learn. Next YuJing. If you want more of a challenge pick HockeySlam, Normads, or Cavemen

What are the most annoying units to fight against? I don't mean annoying as in strong, I mean just really irritating. As in an army list where every model has at least a few things like: TO: Camouflage, some form ECM, non-lethal weapons, deactivators, optical disruptors, nanoscreens, climbing plus, super jump, etc.

Just want to be as annoying as possible while the enemy tries to kill them but can't because they have so many debuffs and such high mobility.

You already know the answer to that.

But another experience: anyone who plays 4 snipers at once and at least 2 of them are Sappers.

Fucking cheap 0.5SWC Sniper Rifles.

FUCKING

GHAZI

Ghazi.
Kill from afar? Smoke dodge
Kill up close? Chain rifle, go dogged
TAGs/HI? E/marat
Approach behind cover? Jammer
Manage to kill them? Fuck you they cost 5 pts each and you just spent more in orders to kill them, also there's 3 more

Okay, Fusiliers + Bagh-Mari are not that great, as Bagh-Mari work best in Acontecimento, which doesn't get access to Fusiliers. In generic PanO Bagh-Mari are just worse Nisse. But if you like the look of Acontecimento Regulars, go for ASA.
You may want Kamau (pic related) instead of Bagh-Mari, but currently the only new sculpt is the HMG guy in Beyond Icestorm box. They actually are divers, from the ocean planet Varuna.

Fusiliers are really just basic bitch light infantry. Sure, you can play as many of them as you want (they have AVA: Total, which means in theory you can fill 300pts with just 30 basic Combi Rifle Fusiliers), but they won't contribute much to the fight. BS12 makes them okay sentries, WIP12 makes them bad specialists, in general I usually play no more than 3 of them (most often Hacker, FO/Paramedic and basic/Lieutenant). Their main role is just providing Orders for other units.

Note: Fusiliers, ORC Troops and Kamau are all going to be in the Varuna army which may be released later this year. So you could play generic PanO for now and later decide if you want to switch to Varuna.

>damn piss fetishists

Amen

>fusiliers
>basic bitches

Say that to my face fucker not online

You tell him, Angus!

A big, strapping Fusilier like yourself deserves a back rub, allow me...

Testing out some color schemes for my muyibs, which one looks better?

They both look good, but I think I like left one more.

[DEUS VULT INTENSIFIES]

I just can't connect MOs with shitty power metal. What's wrong with imagining them all marching with blasting Verdi or Mozart Requiem and actual Templar chants?

Damn right, you haqqislamite harlot.

Can't completely place my finger on why, but left.

This guy gets it.

Something like this
youtu.be/_jBLyIQvNf0
youtu.be/8MQf-86ikvM
youtu.be/Z3vyFepljl8
And for something more on the avant-garde future side maybe this
youtu.be/dnqD7jUAW90
youtu.be/xgfa5UlZAL8

They're wearing power armour, hence power metal.
The whole idea of space knights is cheesy as fuck no matter how you slice it.

youtube.com/watch?v=THKurgSmomM

Also note that it's set 175 years into the future. Metal is a 200 years old genre by then. That's more time separating them from Metallica than us from Tchaikovsky.

The fact that it's cheesy doesn't mean it's not better with Verdi. It's more pumped at times than boring metal anyway. And you can't trance to that type of metal.

The fact that it's old makes listening to something as passable as power metal even less immersive.

Funny thing is that neither your pseudointellectual choices nor cheesy and fun metal are supported by fluff; Order Sergeants' entry mentions "psychomusic" when going into battle, which is probably some sort of weird harmony of sounds directly stimulating the brain. Or they just straight up pray.

Besides, it's not like Verdi has anything to do with times of crusades anyway. If anything, In Extremo does a much better job by actually playing a legitimate medieval song about crusades, just with electric guitars.

Gregorian chant is already sometimes similar to that as it is an effective way to put people in a sort of a trance when mixed with some other elements such as inscence, fasting and pain. Not sure how MOs are to Spanish 16th century monks, but imagining them in the context of John of the Cross is quite fun.

On the subject, I just finished those.

Try to add yellow light in the middle of their visors. A thin line in the middle and also cover the edges of them with some more white so the thick red doesn't look like it's a part of the helmet instead of the light.

I definitely do not have the manual skill to add a yellow line in the middle. Bear in mind that my shitty camera flattens the colours and always makes it look like I'm applying very thick brush strokes, when I'm usually painting with more milky paint. The visors look better IRL.

Aside from more Blizzard and cape-shit, what are some pop-culture references you'd actually like to see in Infinity, if any?

More interesting saint recreations for MOs.

NOMAD CATBOY WHEN

>Aside from more Blizzard and cape-shit
Not even that.

The dark and light contrast makes the left pop out a lot more.

>if any?
I don't really care for pop culture shit.

something you furry faggots will never get

>Blizzard
I'm still waiting for Tracer in Infinity.
Other than that, Archer or Venture bros reference would be great.
