Rather than simply going for the best of the best, consider what you’re getting for your points, and whether you need a certain redundancy. I.e....
Always expect your opponent to be able to kill, whatever you put in his way. The opponent dictates the odds by choosing when and what to engage,...
Whenever I see a Fireteam, I see a weak opponent. Stacking numbers isn’t the same as maneuvering and tactics. Of course you can brute force your...
I dislike Fireteams - preferring a pure skirmish game, where every model counts. Yet, that might not work for Infinity. Where cheap models serve...
Best advice is to start small. Do some starter vs. Starter games. They’re great in the way, that they show off the various rules of the game,...
Looking to get back into Infinity after having living far out in the shticks for a couple of years - and getting introduced to Malifaux. So how...
The biggest advantage of a Fireteam isn’t bonuses, but order conservation. Being able to move a specialist into position, while you’re spending...
Thora FOs are great order monkeys to hold the backfield, while daikini Medics excel at swooping in and grabbing objectives while preserving...
The fluff to this just sounds ludicrous. The idea alone that someone would sit down and design a hypertech exploding CCW weapon is bonkers, let...
@VonKrolok I think, you’ve missed the point, that Aleph is the utopian AI, while the EI is the dystopic one. In the same way space vampires are a...
Although it is funny, that the Aleph Vanilla Patroclus has Fireteam:Duo(Achilles V2) if under no circumstances he is allowed to form the team.
Not at all. Pat kan kill just as good as Achilles, just slightly differently. He can go places, where Achilles can’t tread, simply for being MI,...
Whatever. That duo is a waste anyway and this is just another example on why N4 is needed with streamlined and clarified rules.
Aleph (generic army) has two sectorials. OSS and Steel Phalanx. And you reference those for fireteam composition. I wonder, what you thought the...
Not exactly : Moreover, TeamPro allows the use of Fireteam: Duo in Generic Armies. Players can only apply this advantage to those units...
Exactly this.. And also MOV 6-4 and that it would be sad to separate Achilles from his favorite boytoy.
They move separately, most often from different flanks. I see no gain from them forming a Fireteam. Patroclus is ‘just’ as formidable as Achilles...
I prefer running Achilles in vanilla, and when I do, I like running him with Patroclus for backup : Achilles Spitfire Lieutenant | Lieutenant,...
@ijw Exactly. There is very little point in getting ‘the right’ specialist for the job, unless you’re playing Highly Classified of course. This...
I’d also love to see the return to making specific specialists relevant to deal with objectives. I.e. How originally specialists with the proper...
