I moved and found there's a LGS within walking distance of me that plays Infinity. So far I've mostly forgotten why I quit or attempting real hard to suppress the memories. I figure there's no other website that is doing the CKP nonsense so I'm asking y'all what the new nonsense is with N3. I used to be a big deal, AMA.
To answer your question though, N3 and HSN3 have changed a ton of things, i suggest checking the wiki and reading up. Other than that, for haqq, Ghazis are auto include if you can, hunzas are still gucci, Hassassins became better, and Tarik is on vacation for a couple months.
From what I've gathered he took too many roids getting to S5 and was sent home in shame. Considering that it happened because we lost the ITS event, I am ashamed of all of you. Though it seems like the order spam centric play of N3/HSN3 makes fielding big models to be more of a liability than previously when they were just awesome fun things to include every now and then.
The change with ITS that you cannot remove two orders at the start from lists with only one combat group went a long way towards balancing quality vs quantity lists. Still in favour of order spam mind you but not quite so harshly. There’s also a few more missions that are somewhat more killy.
Well, that was awfully vague. What sort of stuff were you playing before? Perhaps, that will provide a better idea of where to start looking.
Why do I have the impression that you are all talking to a chatbot? Ah, yes, the nonsensical string of words XD
Rather the opposite, the focus on more killy missions and the various direct aswell as indirect buffs to TAGs, make it quite viable now, to bring the heavy stuff too.
N3 is a huge improvement on the game. You'll still find those classic issues that arise from spanglish rule writing, but most of the time it's pretty further case. CB have made some baffling FAQs so you'll need to head there maybe even before reading the rules. Right now we seem to be in the age of narrative events, where CB are trialling more little changes to the game during the ITS season. PS. Welcome back tevesh, I always enjoyed your musings
No, not a chatbot. Just a Canadian. They can generally pass the Turing test... after a few tries anyway, eh? Even the Newfies. New forum could use a new tactica for Vanilla Haqq. Get playing, Tevesh, so you can write one. Also keep an eye out for a new sectorial, soon®. The Ramah Task Force.
In about a year, I'm afraid. But yeah. Would be a surprise to me if they were to release it this year.
Five armies with physical models were announced for this year. The first was JSA (the mercenary groups do not count), and Tunguska is the second, that leaves 3 options in two events (thus the musings about a 2player starter box), and we've been told that Shasvastii and Tohaa are not in those numbers because of the designs being not ready... So we have Vedic, Varuna, Invincible Army, Rodina, and Ramah (I think I'm not forgetting any), I'd say it's a 30% chance (since IA is not really expected this year also, at least by the YJ's players).
