This guy goes quite in-depth on each faction and its various standout units/tactics/lists.

About Goonhammer from previous thread - I have a feeling that they are very biased about certain approaches like how they hate most 20-40p units for being "too expensive for competitive play", insist that every list must have 15 people or is automatically bad and have odd list making habits (when making example list for Kestrel they out almost entirely drones here and two Yamabushi, for reasons unknown to me).

>>96270958
No PanO yet but thanks anyway. I hate videos but if there is no better source, then so be it.

>>96271197
It's true that by taking less than max orders you are almost always shooting yourself in the foot for no reason.

New 2-players starter when?

>>96272854
Next year probably, this year it's warcrows turn

>>96272854
Next year, USAriadna vs Someone else.

>>96271197
>insist that every list must have 15 people or is automatically bad
Pretty sure most top players will tell you that dropping to even 14 is pretty niche and specific play. List build how you want, but sub-15 is generally very much not optimal.

>>96272933
Maybe onyx? Would be kinda cool.

>>96273180
CA's getting the new human sectorial in October, they'll still be doing releases for that.

>>96273085
Tell that to Military Orders, how could anyone design a sectorial where you cannot even field most of people because their cost cannot be offset with cheaper units?

Also, isn't it like second group is limited anyway and restricted to support and/or defensive activities? Like some remote you move to position and leave here to deter the enemy?

>>96273180
Unlikely as CA is getting a new sectorial this year.
My bet would be something Haqq, like QK.

>>96273503
>how could anyone design a sectorial where you cannot even field most of people because their cost cannot be offset with cheaper units
MO has plenty of sub 20 point units to choose from.

Your second group should also be able to do something. If it's just two units that something is very limited whereas with 5 orders you might get an objective done. 15 troops is optimal because the game is won by doing things and the less orders you have the less you can do and the easier you fold under pressure. It's not complicated.

>>96273535
Haqq just had a pack though, the one before sandtrap was haqq vs aleph.

>>96273554
True. It could also be a new sectorial for O12.

>>96273563
They also had a release fairly recently but then again they're behind on sectorials so might be. They also haven't had a 2 player starter since wildfire.

>>96273503
There's at least a couple of things to offset with in MO, including some pretty reasonable units and lots of cheerleading value for them. Second group is a good place to put things that will always draw a handful of orders if you have them - parachutists, smokers, a pitcher placer, some NCOs, etc.

the japanese faction looks cool

>>96272933
Tohaa, obviously.

>>96271197
Goonhammer is not some unified bloc. It is just a place where some people from various Infinity communities occasionally pen articles. Their perspectives, playstyles, and local metas are diverse. There is no one size fits all guide for Infinity, context always matters.

>>96273735
https://youtu.be/odeyiO-fm4E

Morat independence when?

>>96277272
Never, fuck that, stop fucking with the factions Carlos

>>96273837
Troonhammer should just be ignored.

>>96277272
Stupid idea, even with Morat begrudgingly following EI orders, they know they can't expand their borders without its tech. Morat may hate piving under the umbrella of another species, but they've never been in a better place culturally or technologically.

>>96279245
All it takes is EI to show weakness in some way. It is inevitable.

>>96270937 (OP)
I don't like it. The melee weapon looks dumb.

Does it even come with a hottie?

>>96281692
>Does it even come with a hottie?
I'm sorry, he didn't mention anything about that

>>96281700
CB's hottie erasure is really getting to me.

>>96281692
Unless they remove the escape system, it should.

>>96283562
Iguana kept the escape system, so...

>>96283594
And it still comes with the operator, so yes?

>>96270937 (OP)
New player interested in getting into Infinity, sorry in advance if this is a dumb question. I was reading up on the rules for stealth since the armies I'm interested in seem to have them, which then led to me reading up on cautious movement. It says you're allowed to use cautious movement so long as you start and stop your movement out of enemy line of fire, but it doesn't mention anything about passing through an enemy's LoF, so my question is does that mean it's possible to dip in and out of an enemy's LoF without generating an ARO (example of what I mean in pic related in two different scenarios). I'd assume that it IS possible but just want to 100% make sure.

Also other question; how useful is stealth? Reading about it gives me the impression it seems kinda strong, but since I don't have any games under my belt I don't know how often it'd be practically useful. What is it's real application beyond just moving around without getting shot at? I really like the idea of running lots of stealthy/sneaky guys for some true wetwork shennanigans.

>>96284885
's the point of cautious movement. Biggest thing with stealth honestly is hacking area movement, but you can also do it to pull tricks like moving around behind an enemy to approach from out of LoF without triggering a dodge ARO that they could use to turn and face you.

>>96285106
Interesting, I hadn’t thought much of hacking as a threat, will have to keep in mind cheers. Guess that’s why so many stealth units also seem to have killer hackers… The dodge thing you mentioned and I guess melee’ing an enemy from behind are really the only other direct uses for stealth I can imagine currently but that still seems useful enough to warrant wanting.

I imagine stealth “fireteams” are a bit hard and unwieldy to run right? I’m sure a duo could probably be worth it (something like a Firefly duo) but anything bigger probably would just make them too easy to get caught out and picked off yeah?

>>96285240
I don't think I've ever run across a stealthing Haris, and can't really picture when or why I would. Might be a cool trick for a duo, but yeah I don't think big link play with it is going to be useful.

>>96285282
Makes sense, trying to cautious move with a conga line is probably a nightmare.
>Might be a cool trick for a duo, but yeah I don't think big link play with it is going to be useful.
That helps narrow down who I was thinking of going with then. Was looking at either Shindenbutai, Imperial Service or Kestrel. Shinden can potentially run a core stealth team but if there ain’t much point may as well stick with singles and duos and decide based on that.

Cheers anon for the help, hope your games go well

>>96281692
It looks cool.

>>96285473
yeah I like it, but the weapon looks like a weird one to wield. It seems suitable for slapping it around like a bladed pillar that you could then throw, but I don't see the point in the rounded blade at the top. Scalpel to cut mega fauna up with?

>>96285690
I'm thinking some tool to get rid of thick foliage, or a weapon to kill a bunch of enemy infantry in close quarters.
Ironically a TAG is probably much more terrifying up close given how fast they move and how strong they are; at least at a distance you can use AT weapons.

I profoundly dislike Aristeia

>>96286957
I'm not even interested enough to try it.

>>96286957
>>96287031
It's a pretty fun game mechanically though.

>>96286957
Why? I've never played but it seems fun enough

>>96289759
Tbqh you need very high IQ to enjoy Aristeia

What was that one rem bonus ITS rule called? I remember it being a tachikoma reference but nothing else.

Found it "tachimoto". It was more straightforward than I thought. I'm kinda excited for ITS 17.

>>96286957
It went for the hero game/overwatch theme but that trend came and went very quickly.
The ascetics and characters look lame. Could be better with a different theme.

The player mats are at least good for solaris battletech.

Carlos says that warcrow makes more money than unfunity right now.
I thought this would happen at some point but not so soon.
I guess people really like extremely bland medieval fantasy.

>>96295619
A new thing will usually outsell the old thing because people don't have it yet

>>96295723
Hopefully CB manages to remember that.

>>96270937 (OP)
How does pic related look for learning the game and using as a basis for building out my force? I know the starter box has a 150pt force already but I think the Fireflies are cool and want to try and use them.

I was thinking I'd like a TAG at 300pts (probably the Tikbalang). What other stuff should I get to back it up without compromising what's already here?

>>96295951
Remotes are a must if you wanna get to a comfortable order count while taking expensive pieces and are useful overall

>>96295976
Fair. I’m assuming it’d probably help to change the minelayer firefly into an engineer to support everything and grab a tech bee also since she seems cheap points wise also and buffs the TAG. Should I look into getting a killer hacker of some kind, or can I rely on EVO hacks and normal hacking to keep everything under control? I’ve yet to play a game so I’m not sure how predominant or useful this kind of stuff is over just bringing more guns.

>>96296031
That depends on your opposition and local meta. Some local metas are more hacking focused than others. If your opponent doesn't have hacker, a killer hacking doesn't have that much to do.

>>96296031
The banshee khd is a nice fast specialist even if there is nothing to fry and 23 points is not a bad price.

>>96295619
Minis are probably cheaper to make to.

>>96296054
Makes sense, guess I'm just worried someone is gonna yoink my TAG or kill a single REM and then completely fuck me in the ass by isolating the griffin and making all the other REM's shut down and gimp my order pool.
>>96296083
Could be a good idea. Does the banshee not get absolutely demolished dropping in from ARO's though?

>>96296109
That's the thing: she's fast enough that you don't need to drop her with combat jump, you can just deploy her normally if you feel like it to get an extra order. It's overall good form to parachute jumpers too to eliminate the chance of rolling badly but in either case you obviously should drop them in a safe position.

>>96296054
>If your opponent doesn't have hacker, a killer hacking doesn't have that much to do.
Cybermask can be insanely clutch even with no enemy hackers on the table, and if you're TAGging then the insurance is well worth it anyway.

>>96296135
Suppose that's an option yeah, and I guess so long as I'm not parachuting her into a stupid spot she should be okay. With how many repeaters are stomping around cause of the REM's I could have her sit in a corner and still somehow reach out and zap whatever cheeky prick she needs to.
>>96296139
>Cybermask
Completely forgot this was a thing (there is so many rules to keep track of jesus). I guess that'd be even more incentive to take a banshee
>Deploy normally
>Mask up and just shadow the Tik + Pathfinder
Hacking seems awesome. Feels kind of ironic I seem to be spec'ing into it so much when I keep getting told PanO are shit at it

>>96296221
In infinity differences are pretty small between factions, panO hacking isn't unplayable by any means but they pale in relative comparison to what the nomads or CA get. Ariadna is the only faction in the game with an abysmal hacking presence.

Hm, I got to fill my first mispack form. Hopefully they get back to me soon. But what do I do with two Perseuses? Persi?

>>96299142
You can send one to me, I can always use a dynamic Myrmidon sculpt.
they won't ever reply, the right parts will just appear in your mailbox one day

>>96292472
Tachimoto.

Do units return to fireteams regardless of reason for dropping? If I put a model in suppressive on 1A can it return to the fold at the end of 1B if it's no longer suppressive and is in coherency of the leader?

>>96299770
"When a Regular Order is spent on a member of a Fireteam, they automatically become the Fireteam Leader."
You hand the order to the guy, he becomes the Fireteam Leader, you use it to put him in Suppressive and he leaves the fireteam, and I believe in N4 this would cancel the fireteam but in N5 you're just left with a fireteam with no designated leader? Expect argument that this is a Null State leader and therefore cancels the team.

>>96300016
No that makes perfect sense, I don't think there is a way to make it work. The best I can think of is leaving the sup. fire unit behind before putting the state up.

What's the point of ft master: connolly on taskmasters? He is regular to begin with

>>96300690
I guess if you had a team of just Taskmasters and Connolly, you'd get the +2" coherence range? Really niche, but it's an effect they wouldn't have if they didn't explicitly include him in FT Master.

>>96295619
I'm not sure I believe that

>>96301311
probably they adding warcrow adventures sales

Oh, the mispack team replied. Let's see how long it takes for the parts to arrive.

>>96302893
manana...

>>96296089
Is siocast less labour intensive or something? Doubt it's all materials, even if pewter is pretty expensive these days.

Imp service doneish. Not too happy with the bases and the pheasant’s cloak

>>96307981
Swell. Longwang being a manlet will never not be funny.

>>96307981
Not sure if it was the intended effect, but the camo patterns(?) on the bases kind of look like murky/muddy water which suits the random pieces of metal. Gives your dudes the feel they're trudging through some rainy scrapyard or something.

Cool stuff either way

>>96307351
The material itself is cheaper, the rest afaik is comparable to metal.

>>96310721
This guy sucks.
But I guess CB is going all out to market with YouTubers now... They are fucking paying Mini wargaming to play it (and they haven't been relevant for like three years).

>>96310881
I don't think he was paid to do it, there definitely were a lot of paid promotions around the release of N5

>>96310901
I don't think this dude does anything that he isn't paid to do, he is a professional YouTuber

>>96310970
You need to disclose paid promotions, he is paid by his audience even if the content itself isn't sponsored

>>96310721
Are we entering a new period of GW fatigue?

>>96311107
We should be
AoS is ass, 40k is ass, 30k is ass, LotR is ass, TOW is meh, WARCRY is dead, Underworlds is dead, and I don't know about Kill Team.
CB needs to strike NOW

>>96311107
Cant speak for everyone but ever since the rules for 3rd edition of 30k dropped I started looking for something else to play. All the other GW games are just kinda ass, and other tabletop games like Malifaux and Star Wars Legion just don’t hit the spot.

Comparatively Infinity seems way more interesting to me currently. Hoping to pick up my first batch of models soon.

>>96311107
I think lots of the folks that came back to the game with the 8th relaunch are leaving. They are remembering what GW is as a company and are tired of the endless FOMO cycle.

But GW is still selling massively and bringing in lots of new players to the hobby space.

That is why GW still seems dominant but vets wargamers are looking elsewhere.

>>96312993
Old JSA did better. Shinden is cringe.

Noob here. Is there a good place to see the pros and cons of infinity over kill team and vice versa?

>>96313171
Tournament and event data is all we have to go off of, and obviously that isn’t a totally accurate way to measure overall popularity. That being said, the most populous tournament this year (81 participants, held in Germany) had Haqqislam, CA, and YJ as the three most common. Looking at the US tournaments, CA is the most popular, followed by PanO and then a tie between Nomads and JSA.

Like I said, tourney data isn’t wholly accurate, but it’s something.

>>96312944
Thanks anon!
>>96312959
Kestrel, I was this >>96295951 anon from earlier. Im still keen to go for a TAG for 300pts but I might screw around with the list building more to see what other cool stuff I can do
>>96312977
I think it really depends on the vibe you want. I think Kestrel are awesome cause they have a real “operator” type vibe to them. Druze and Brawlers are fucking awesome though and sell the “Scumbag merc” vibe well

>>96313281
Check up what people are playing in your neck of the woods. Because whether or not you can find someone to play against is by far the most important bit. If it's both? Watch some games, see if someone can demo stuff for you.

>>96313325
I think that local scene may vary wildly. From brief check at mine, at least few years ago CA was absolutely dominating, with YJ, Ariadna and Haqq behind and PanO having bad reputation of being "only good at shooting".

Personally, I have yet to play actual "big" game instead of demo + one 150p, but CA seems to be rather overpowered compared to the rest - lots of cheap options to fuel very powerful expensive profiles that will easily wipe the floor with others.

>>96313325
What's the most populous Satellite since COVID?

>>96313912
Sadly, the site I used, infinitythedata, only lists events for this year. The other data site, infinitythemeta, doesn't seem to list specific tournament data and instead looks at all the data from various tournaments of a given type, which makes sense since the site seems more interested in tracking matchups.

I see Bakunin event bundles still emerging on the secondary market for a decent price (in this case ~90 bucks). Would it make a decent starting list? Can I play a full game without any extra purchases for a long time or will I miss some unit options that are pretty much obligatory to not get stomped when I bring my dudes to LGS?

>>96316556
Technically it can make a complete list, but realistically you're, at a minimum, going to also want some remotes.

You can proxy various S2 sized models as other S2 sized things, so you wouldn't necessarily need to make purchases to branch into those, but the remotes are S3 and S4.

>>96313825
>CA seems to be rather overpowered compared to the rest
It might seem that way until you play (against) them. Yes, the charontid/anathematic/nourkias/etc. are crazy strong on their own, but also very expensive. You can counter them in a number of ways, most intuitively killing their order supply, hitting them with e/m-ammo, or with low-tech stuff like coordinated surprise attacks, smoke-shoots or yoloing a combat jumper into cc (note: don't do this against their CC monsters) and watch them struggle to break free.
N4 and N5 gave even pano tools to effectively deal with them, and when in doubt you can always drop a discoball on them and make them blind. You win by playing the objective over everything else.

Also again, use e/m. Without their monsters (mostly 2 per list) their cheap ordergoons do nothing, and without their cheerleaders the monsters might as well be aro turrets.

Every faction has their own ways to counter them, so unless you're sval, just use your funky stuff

>>96316709
Well, my first 150p game was my PanO against CA and while I can't recall actual names, it was painful - barely shot down some exploding beast in safe distance, then had to deal with some unit restoring wounds in CC that avoided most AROs while my Teutonic failed all his dodge rolls and finally save rolls against flamethrower continuous damage. Plus, even when killed their Lt, most of his army was immune to LoL anyway. Oh and it was Firefight.

>>96316602
What remotes should I grab to cover as many scenarios as possible on budget?

>>96317940
Zond Remotes. Those are basic.

>>96317940
TNA but standard REMs come in the Zonds Remotes Pack, building them as Stemplers does the most to cover many purposes but maybe look at running one as a Reaktion or Vertigo depending on taste. Second broadest applicability would be the Salyuts but imo they're a much more optional pick. The other more dedicated remotes IMO don't fit the "many scenarios" description as well with the single exception of the Meteor which is a more expensive and even more mobile kinda-Stempler-like. Honestly two zond packs to make two Stemplers, a Reaktion and a Vertigo is probably the most effective two initial buys.

>>96317940
>>96318075
Also, magnetize the weapon attachments if at all possible. That way you can always downgrade your Vertigo or Reaktion Zond into Transductors if your list needs need cheap regular orders.

Is there a good resource for the strengths and weaknesses and general playstyles of each faction?

>>96318202
Robert Shepard on youtube

>>96318202
1d4chan had good ones for N4, they haven't been updated since N5 but they're still available on 1d6chan and are still broad-brush applicable.

>>96313133
Labubu

Isn't it like people just use any S3 or S4 remotes for various purposes? I mean, I simply picked Aleph remotes and painted them blue, Tachikoma style and pretend they are PanO generic ones.

I've got nomad zonds as transductors and o-12 copperbots as vertigo/reaktion/stemplers

>>96318941
Do not pursue La Bu Bu

>>96308244
Thanks for idea they are swampier now

>>96323112
Looks even better now anon, nice touch, glad you liked the idea!

>>96317940
Realistically, you're going to be bringing zonds (smaller, S3 REM) in just about every game. They're one of the few things in Infinity that double dipping on purchases can make sense. One anon said to magnetize them, but it really isn't important. No one will care about you proxying one loadout for another, as that is a normal thing to do in the game.

The sputniks are a bit more niche, but I mentioned them because the base size is important. If you want to proxy them as a Lizard or a Go-Pod, they have the right base size for it, and neither of those are bad options.

If you strictly wanted WYSWIG for whatever reason, I'd recommend the bakunin expansion pack beta and uberfallkommando as important purchases.

>>96323112
Wasn't keen on them (just the bases, that is) in the earlier pic, but I think they're pretty cool now. I like the models a lot other than that and maybe the flesh on the Wu Ming(?) could do with a wash. Really nice style over all.

>>96323112
I like the swampy junkyard idea, consider it stolen.

How much should I care about using all my swc? Is it possible to make a great list with just say, 3 used up?

>>96327638
I think so long as you have the right "tools" to handle potential problems, then you shouldn't worry about it. SWC usually gives you access to loadouts that can solve problems in easier, safer and more reliable ways (much easier to kill a TAG with an AP machine gun than a AP submachine gun) but if you can still solve potential problems then you can give then you should be fine (that AP submachine gun is still a viable option, you just need it on the right person). Just think about all kinds of problems and how your list can deal with them and go from there.

Is there anywhere I can get single models? I need a Crux Knight for my MO but I don't wanna get a whole-ass army pack just for it.

I think riot grrrls should be big tiddy anthros.

>>96329713
With Blender you can sculpt anything you want.

>>96329463
Not officially, no. There used the be a website where people would list individual units in a set they didn’t want so other people could buy them, with the idea being that the cost of the set would be split between all buyers, proportional to the amount of the set they end up with. However, I’ve forgotten the website’s name and don’t even know if it still exists anyway.

You might be able to find individual units on eBay, but there’ll likely be some markup.

>>96307351
>Is siocast less labour intensive or something? Doubt it's all materials, even if pewter is pretty expensive these days.
Mini-making is already low-margin, Anon. The price of raw tin was $15,000/ton a decade ago. It's currently ~$40k/t, down from a high of almost 45k/t a couple years ago. It's almost quintuple what it was in 2010. Miniatures have to use smaller and more processed lots, which jacks up the price. You often need to alloy it with something else for better casting properties, like bismuth or antimony. Or pay someone to do the alloying for you. All of that adds up. The effective price of materials alone on an average ~2oz model has gone up from under $1 to ~$3 in the last 15 years, and that's not counting electricity and labor. So why is that a problem?
Most stores operate at an 80-100% markup from wholesale. About half the price you pay for a given model is keeping the LGS open; the discount on online stuff is almost entirely from them not needing to pay to keep a brick-and-mortar facility open. The distributor also takes a bite out of the profits. So does the shipping company.
Adding all that up, the company suddenly goes from making something around $4-5 per model they cast to more like $1-2. Every stage of the middleman process has been taking hits from the increased costs on shipping, storage, and power, not to mention the inflation and probably poor investments they made from the initial Coofbux bubble, which has popped.

So Siocast knocking the cost of a model back to less than a buck is a huge deal for pretty much everyone. That's why so many of the bigger companies are turning to vinyls and Siocast, or if they're more of a garage operation leaning into resin 3DP despite the brutal hazmat requirements and slow production pace. It doesn't hurt that Siocast uses the same machines as tin, or a comparatively cheap low-pressure injection setup. Nor that Siocast weighs a quarter what tin does, which saves astronomically on shipping costs.

Hmmm this post is a little too intelligent and informed for a post on 4changs. How should I classify my report of it? Trolling?

>>96335033
oh, hush, I'm just a garage caster who's had to answer the same goddamned question a few dozen times.

You can do passable shit in like a month if you don't care about making money. Blender has a mode where you can just slap a background image and then you trace it - you need 2 possibly 3 of them for the front, side and back profiles. Just steal any of the showcase turnarounds from any 3d game and use them. Spacelords would probably work with Infinity easily.

Or just steal character concept art where they are t-posed for reference.

Anyone got some good suggestions for green paint recipes to get some nice looking Druze? Most tutorials I see for green armour is just way too saturated and way off the mark

I just use VMC German Camo Green with Olive Green for highlights for most green military webbing.

When, Carlos?

Better question: CA flier when? And is it gonna be a Cylon Raider shaped Batroid?

That's a good chance to deliver an Exrah vehicle.

>>96345507
You mean the Rodoks? Or are you thinking about the Xeodrons?
Both fill the role of an aerial unit withoit being retarded about it (just like the chadruda and the vargar)

Fuck it, I want fliers, not infantry with bouncy boots.

Right after CA Motorbike.

As someone who's never painted minis before, how should I go about painting these guys? I don't really want to do anything fancy, I just want to paint them the normal colors they are here but I'm super scared of fucking up. What do I need to get? What colors are good? I saw that there was a Panoceania paint set but it didn't look like it had any reds in it.

Don't be. You really can't fuck it up that badly. Worst case scenario you drop them in some acetone and start over (because they're metal, you generally don't put plastic models in acetone).

There are many good paints available these days. Between Army Painter, Vallejo, Pro Acryl, AK Interactive, and others, just get whatever is most convenient. Don't worry about getting colors 1:1, and don't be afraid to mix colors together.

Why are you doing this to me, anon?

>I'm super scared of fucking up.
It's like painting Go, you should fuck up your first 100 minis as soon as possible.

The first Infinity mini I painted is still the best I've done this far I think

>>96348549
If you are super new, you could maybe try painting them using contrast-like paints over a white primer background. There are tons of videos on the topic, and it works quite well on Infinity minis due to their detail density:

It's hard to fuck up and can give you some very decent results (see the last video, for example).
It will probably not win any painting competition but it's better than silver tide, and you can learn more advanced techniques over time.

Or try your best and try again and again until you get good.

About stripping paint, how would you do that for plastic minis instead?

>>96349045
Isopropyl alcohol, which works fine for metal too, but acetone is a bit stronger, and also eats through super glue which I like for stripping used models and such.
