    Infinity Tactics: Defending Against Guided Attacks

    It's been Guided Missile o'clock in Infinity community discussion again recently, so I thought it might be useful to do a short piece with some tips on how to defend against them.

    Good video. Just one criticism, it fails to acknowledge that guided attacks are an "I win " button, which offer no counterplay, and an unfun experience.

    I think you missed the subtle hint in the video that there are no I-win buttons in Infinity.

    Very nice video. Talking about how to play the game is so refreshing in the face of the constant internet whining about wanting to change the rules.
