Infinity Defiance, the new game from Corvus Belli

was hoping that it was going to make its original release around my bday but i prefer everyone to be safe.

 

An unfortunate but pretty much inevitable development considering the pandemic. I hope everyone at CB is staying safe!

Staying safe is sure important in these uneasy times. Was hoping to get it before my birthday in september too. Man... I really hope Wave 1 won't be delayed even further to December, cause that would mean it could easilly be delayed even more or lost in shipping during holidays.

 

And some of us have to wait until Wave 2 to get anything :(

If this also delays N4 and the "until the end 2020" army additions to it, it's going to be miserable :|

 

Update 64 The Megalodron(I'm starting to be scared of painting it)

I hope they hide the casting seams well and put them on flat surfaces, not detail, the amount of visible filing down on this prototype has me worried. Removing seams from PVC models is a chore, they crumble and drag like toffee instead of acting like plastic does.

 

Megalodron looks to be made from the same god awful rubbery PVC as Aristeia. Did they clarify what material will be used?

 

If it is the same plastic as the last Aristeia! releases, I am all in and happy tbh. The detail is very good, and not rubbery at all.

 

Yes, they announced immediately that it's the same material as the recent Aristeia! expansions.

 

That's exactly why I hope they thought out the seam placement.

 

I'm pretty sure they claimed it will not be the same material at first.

What a shame. After collecting 2 seasons of Aristeia I'd rather see anything else but that. It cant stay straight, always bending (even after some time on a shelf, I just checked mine) and impossible to clean from mold (cause you cant cut or file it properly). And i bet it will come preassembled so it will be even more bothersome.

 

update 65: Core and Collector's miniatures ready

soon (boxes containing only the miniatures)

 

So it's just tiles and paper printing? I hope that the previous news about the September to October readiness of Wave 1 will be more September if this is the case, so that we can still get Wave 2 this year.

 

Yeah, one of the hopes I had was that since CB did the actual manufacturing themselves, there wouldn't be the delays of all the other kickstarters.

Of course, the issue there is that they still farm out printing the tiles, books, boxes and stuff, so bleh.

 

Well, having to be out of the office for months was always going to push things back, even if everything were done in house.

 

i think they still need to also print tokens and dice as well

 

Plus the logistics of getting this to everybody isn't a small task even once you have it. To be frank I'm surprised it wasn't pushed back further with this global clusterfuck that's going on.

 

Update ??? The new art for the enemies' card:
