Hello All :-) I'm new Infinity player. I'm mostly play Yu Jing against my son playing Haqqislam, bu we have Coldfront & Beyond (TAK Action Pack) and we would like introduce Infinity to few friends and Invite them to play with us. I'd like to expand TAK Action Pack to bring more nice units of TAK. I was reading some treads with TAK lists but when I compare them to models in my inventory I usually realize that there is only 2 or 3 models from what I have in these lists. Is there a less "painful" way to expand TAK starter than buying 6 boxes and handful of blisters? :-) here's what we already have: Ariadna TAK Action Pack: 3x Line Kazak (Rifle) 1x Tankhunter (AP Rifle) 1x Veteran Kazak (T2 Rifle) 1x Scout (Boarding Shotgun) 1x Frontovik Engineer (Light Rocket Launcher) 1x Vassily (T2 Marksman Rifle) 1x Strelok (T2 Marksman Rifle) 1x Frontovik Engineer (Light Rocket Launcher) Tankhunters 1x Tankhunter (AP Heavy Machine Gun) 1x Tankhunter (Portable Autocannon) Pavel 1x Pavel Mcmannus (Ojotnik) Streloks, Kazak Reconnaissance Unit (K-9) 1x Strelok (Submachine Gun) 1x K-9 Antipode (Trench-Hammer) Looking on other lists (on this forum and YT) it seems that I should also buy: - Kazak Spetsnazs Box - Colonel Voronin (AP CC Weapon) - 2x Irmandinho (Chain Rifle) - Frontoviks, Assault Separated Bat. box - Antipode Assault Pack (or 2 of them) - Veteran Kazak (AP Heavy Machine Gun) - Dynamo Reg. of Kazak Light Cavalry and maybe - Carmen Johns & Bâtard - Line Kazak box and.... Dog-Warriors? there is a lot of it and it is a lot of models to buy and models to paint. Can you advise me how to start with it?
I would go for them in this order, out of the stuff you want. Veteran Kazak (AP Heavy Machine Gun) Kazak Spetsnazs Box (cant go wrong with HMG spetsnazs but i hardly use the other too as much but the shotgun and ap rifle profiles are not bad, sniper is, his betrayed me each time I have taken him.) 2x Irmandinho (Chain Rifle) Antipode Assault Pack (just one for starters) Carmen Johns & Bâtard (She is amazing for her points) Alternatively I would actually get the strelocks blister or proxies for them, since I find them one of the units I stick in the most lists.
Your list contains almost whole TAK range. Veteran Kazak APHMG and Spetsnazs box would give you two very important units in sectorial and they would be must buy. Irmandinhos are good to have but not autoinclude Antipodes are very strong but hard to use properly
I agree. If you get the Antipodes where they need to go and still mostly intact, they are absolutely brutal. That said, they are bulky to deploy and hard to move around safely. I personally prefer the Dog Warrior. Same number of wounds and much easier to maneuver and ultimately, more likely to actually get where you need him. Additionally, he has smoke and regular grenades and double chain rifles. I think it’s a much more versatile tool. Also, if you’re trying to reduce costs, you could probably find someone to split the Dog Warrior box with you, as most people only run one in a list.
