Infinity General: Boring March releases edition

>no Coca-cola girl

Yeah, I'm going to put my HB aside for a bit and go back to USARF

Well, at least they're not just copying someone else's pose.
What I'm more concerned about is that the gun goes below base level.

are asawira actually run in any haqqislam lists?

Shikami
>Obviously aiming at the upcoming JSA box release

Duel.
Duel for the babe, who will win? the alien with obvious intentions of tentacle rape of the asexual military woman curious about her itchy crotch when Candy is around?

>Disfunctional family

>"Step away, sir. I will not repeat."

Ever play against HB?

>THE BLADE COMPELLS ME

>Definition of badassery

>Urban style

>Ivading Kuwait style

Fuck, I can't decide on which version to get

Why not both?

That's what Fireteam Duo is for.

Shikami Fireteam DUO

Holy shit they went full "nothing personal kid" on the second pose. Love it.

Gonna need both when rogue JSA sectorial drops and they can Haris

I've definitely ran against him in HB lists.
For generic Haqq he seems like a more aggressive Janissary.

I've never played infinity but that's hitting my massive gun/mech boner. Wtf is that thing?

I don't play JSA, so AVA1

>Now you have 2 miniatures both with 2 head sets and extra arms.

>upcoming JSA box release
Wat? Is this true?

>"My weapon also has music in it."

An Ariadna oversized Heavy Infantry named Blackjack. Specifically USArianda, though I guess you could run one in generic as well (if you're not running Tankhunters and Vet Kazaks).
Also comes in Sniper mode.

-"Infidels!"

ENOUGH

That overhang is going to trigger the fuck out of me. I'm not sure how I'm going to fix it without a larger base or some annoying leg bending.

Nope, no one plays haqqislam where I live. That is why I was asking, would suck to lose a model slot, that few or no one uses. That sometimes happens to steel phalanx models, so I was worried.

...

>would suck to lose a model slot, that few or no one uses
Tell me about it.

Although supposedly if something has a model people do use it. CB noted a spike of interest in Nisse Hacker in Army once the model got released.

Well as a Hassassin player, I am very excited

-"Why did we deploy in the snow! My balls are freezing here! I'm too persian for this shit!"

>Huge leg stand

I'm of the opinion that the majority of mini's released by CB are more than a little bland, and just do nothing for me.

But having said that I do love this model, especially with the alternate head.

And now... let's go with Marvin, the retard Morat

>"Mmmmm... armpit... smell..."

>the retard Morat
but you repeat yourself

(Totally speechless about this pose)

Hmm, why is one painted in the traditional YJ scheme, CB hasn't done it to JSA units in a while.

And this pic is just pure comedy.
The guy is obviously smashing the leyboard of the objective.

CB was trying to seel Shikamis to newbies who entered the game by purchasing "Operation: RED VEIL", so they were essentially showing Yu Jing units.

>Morat Hacking Device

who is that Nexus model? any info on him?

Killer hacker with a pitcher, new spec ops.

hot diggity damn, can I have a whole team of shit like that? I'd get in if I could have a whole army of super upgunned mother fuckers like him

Also a plasma RIFLE

nice

wow rosie's face looks fucked.

boring, looks like a old sculpt it's so static and shit

probably won't buy this, looks like hot dogshit

again, static and gay

In Infinity units usually have a hardcap. For this guy it's 3 in USARF and 1 in generic Ariadna. The rest of your army will look like this.

Note that the AP HMG Blackjack is 2SWC 36pts and the Sniper is 1SWC 36pts, which is pretty cheap for Heavy Infantry. Usual point limit is 300 with 6 SWC (which stands for Special Weapon Cost).

nice

Also note that many scenarios are about grabbing Objectives, which usually can only be done by Specialists (Hackers, Doctors, Paramedics, Forward Observers etc.). The Blackjack does not have a Specialist profile. So Blackjack's role would often be securing the way for lighter troops like Foxtrots or Mavericks.

Note that fancy looking mechs/HI are not limited to Ariadna. In fact Ariadna is pretty rubbish at them. Haqqislam has a scorpion tank, which is obviously superior.

I think it would look better if you based it with an angle. So it was descending stairs or something.

>Haqqislam has a scorpion tank, which is obviously superior.
Haqqislam technology still requires arachno legs to make things walk.
A nomad child could design something more advanced with his feet.

>A nomad child could design something more advanced with his feet
I am willing to believe that.

>Haqqidlam tech
Magharibas are bought from PanO discount bin. In fact all the TAGs in the game not either run by aliens or asians are designed by them due to how hard it is to make one from scratch.

...

Dats some good booty

There's rarely any bad in these circles.

I hate this.
>I hate that they made two models for the blackjack but not one to represent Lo-Tech A
>I hate this pose
>I hate the nozzle touching the ground
>I hate the price this is going to be
>I hate how it's basically a cheaper Azra'il
>I hate that it's not a two model box
>I hate how it's not a Ripley from Aliens reference in Lo-Tech A form.
Only way to make me hate on it more would be an open face plate and holding out the knife instead of the gun.
I expected a combined Army vs Ariadna box, and can imagine this would supplement a two player starter set eventually.
I wonder what the Candy in this operation is.
Not bad. I think I'll get it because I held back from getting the older one, and was thinking of getting the HB starter + Muyibs to field a Haris anyways.

Faceplate's kind of weird, but I don't mind it. Kind of find it interesting, and at least they don't have an open faceplate

This way to the slaughter

Why is this one red? It looks photoshopped like when they forgot to tell Giraldez that they switched Bakunin's colors from orange to red.

Eh, probably has something to do with "enough"

I do find it kind of weird that they release a generic multi-use profile then get a new model with a specific loadout, kind of like the Hassassin Ayyar. But I do find it strange that they now have two blisters when they've been doing an active effort to reduce SKU bloat by combining packs.

I like the Contender without the hat, and the original dual sword with the hat, oddly enough.

Huh, didn't notice that, but yeah that'd be a huge bother, all of those feet hanging out always get super scratched despite varnishing with my guys.

I laughed at this. I can sympathize.

Guy's name is Kerr-Nau if you wanted to know. I've been told you should be excited because he's got a plasma rifle and is likely linkable.

Doesn't Yu Jing make their own TAGs? Which is why they're so few?

>all TAGs not either run by aliens or Asians
>or asians

Brain fart. I think I read "Aliens or Aliens."

I'm reading the rules and it says I'm not allowed to field more than one troop with Lieutenant in their profile, but it also says I can declare a new Lieutenant if my current one dies.

To do that do I need to field another troop with the Lieutenant trait (which it says I can't do), or do I just add Lieutenant to the profile of another Troop when making them the new Lieutenant (in the middle of the match)?

And her ass is nice too.

You basically nominate someone else who is not a remote presence or irregular.

Say you're playing a Bakunin sectorial list with Kusanagi as a Lt and she died before the start of your active turn, you go through your turn with Loss of Lt (making most troops irregular) and at the end of your turn you secretly nominate a new Lt (could be anybody) who is both regular and not a robot, say a Zero and not a Morlock nor Lunokhod. [I believe the model must also be on the board and not in AD's reserve but you might want to double check me on that).

Ok, so I don't need to have them already be labeled as Lieutenant in my list?

Besides remote presence and irregulars, is there a limit to who can become a Lieutenant? Fusilier Lieutenant can't be equipped with Hacking Device or MediKit during list building, does that meant a Fusilier with a Hacking Device or MediKit cannot be appointed as Lieutenant partway through the match?

Scenario specific question, I checked some rules afterwards but want some validation before I bring it up.

You have a reactive player, with troop A who's in sight of the active player's troop 1 who was in a combat with the reactive player's Troop B who ended up in the unconscious, but not dead state, while still in B2B.

To further complicate things, Troop 1 from the now active player is Immobilized.

Troop A is in sight of both troop 1 and Troop B, who are side to side, immobilized, and unconscious respectively.

Troop 2 from the active player moves into sight of Troop A from the reactive player, who chooses to shoot a template weapon at Troop 2, which by angles can hit Troop 1 as well, but avoids Troop B.

The Question becomes:

Is this a legal move for Troop A, that is to say can the template hit both Troop 2 and the Troop 1 who is IMM with an unconscious trooper?

>Ok, so I don't need to have them already be labeled as Lieutenant in my list?
Yes, the Lieutenant label is only for who starts as Lt in your list (and is otherwise private information until you so reveal it).

>Besides remote presence and irregulars, is there a limit to who can become a Lieutenant?

None other than what I just stated. [Also, for pedanticism the limit is about the REM troop type, not Remote Presence, so it can be a TAG with Ghost: Remote Presence for example, but not like a Clipper]

>Fusilier Lieutenant can't be equipped with Hacking Device or MediKit during list building, does that meant a Fusilier with a Hacking Device or MediKit cannot be appointed as Lieutenant partway through the match?

Yes, the new Lt may end up being a specialist or someone who might not normally be the Lt in an initial list. It's meant to represent the troops becoming confused, improvising, adapting, and overcoming the loss of their leader.

Fuck you I loved the idea of Asawira only wearing light power armor.

TAGs must be pretty clever if they can design asians. Pano better watch out.

Depends whether the unconscious and immobilized models are still engaged. It's a bit messy how and when engagements end, we've played it so that if all the enemy troopers are immobilized or in Null state, the active player can decide to end the engagement.

It depends on if they are engaged or not. If they are engaged you can't shoot the template because it would hit the friendly that is engaged. When someone goes unconscious while engaged the victor gets to choose if they remain engaged or not. I think there is a case that could be made that the immobilized prevents the victorious player from declaring that they are not engaged (since they can't move) but that is not explicitly written in the rules.

The way it happened with Troop B and Troop 1 was that Troop B on it's active turn hit Troop 1 with an E/M+N CCW walking into B2B, but took an unopposed shot from Troop 2 and took a wound. So the result is that Troop 1 and Troop B remain in B2B contact, but Troop 1 is IMM, and Troop B is unconscious, with Troop A and Troop 2 being in sight of each other.

The owner of Troops 1 and 2 didn't activate Troop 1 yet, instead opting for Troop 2 to attack Troop A to help secure the lane.

So yeah, it's a pretty messy situation to make out if Troop 1 is engaged to Troop B or not, and we ended up playing that it wasn't, but later on when I was thinking about the game when it was over I looked up some rules and felt like that shouldn't have been the case. But either way I'd like a second/third opinion on the case, and I'd imagine that the particular scenario will not likely show up again.

If you walk into B2B, they declare shoot, then you declare CC, it is still a f2f roll.

Nevermind. Your AB and 12 is confusing. I see what you mean now.

If I were a TO I would be inclined to rule they are stuck engaged.

What will be in the new 300 point jsa boxen?

a CAD manufactured and accurately modeled 1:1 human poo

>I hate the nozzle touching the ground
That's the bipod, muzzle is just off the ground.

>I hate the price this is going to be
>I hate that it's not a two model box
You can have one of these complaints, both together is stupid. Dumping pointless shit in with a model is only going to inflate the price massively. Leave the battle ravaged BJ for some limited edition thing, it's the kind of fancy yet pointless sculpt that would suit that perfectly.

Well he kind of is compared to most Haqq power armor.

the left arm ruins this pose. If it were down at his side it would look fine.

It's pretty dumb but doesn't seem like it'd be hard to just put it lower. That's what I'm going to do.

I can't tell if the left arm is going to be a separate part or not, but just rotating the arm wouldn't look right due to how the shoulder is sculpted. Either way there would have to be some reconstruction.

Better I think to replace both arms and have the morat engineer holding a mk12 or autocannon, which would look better with the crouching pose anyway, but that would be even more work

Left arm is almost certainly a separate piece, simply for logistical reasons. That would be one fucking awkward piece if it was attached to the body.

they could have the hand and sword be a separate piece but the arm be the same part, like the CA starter kit umbra legate who had his/her arm split up oddly if I recall

Umbra hand required something like that due to how it was modeled. Kurgat sword arm is bread and butter piece and neither elbow or wrist look like something that comes apart. So the most likely and boring option is that the parts are separated from the shoulder like most of the figures.

I remember seeing a picture where they were moving towards doing shit like making both arms and the back one piece so they're easier to put together.

That's such a fucking sweet army, love the Kaplans

Yeah, but it's a gradual process. New Thorakitais had a build something like that, but only one of them went full way, the other still had separate arms etc.

So Kurgat might have some unorthodox part separation, but I suspect that arm is still a singular part.

Actually only Nomads buy from old PanO

But still, isn't its schematic was originally PanO?
