I like the wolf guy. Nice design. The Janissary would have been good if not for the I-shoot-an-AR-with-one-hand pose. A pistol would have been so much better.

Ok, I'll probably break down and buy em anyway!
Note, that Janissary is the same one from the Haqqislam starter set. If you don't already have the other models in that set, consider getting that instead. It's cheaper per-model and also has a unique Naffatun with a light-flamethrower (which will likely be released alone sometime).
Tried to get my hands on this during the black Friday sales at the war store, but it was sold out. So I just bought about 6 models based solely on how cool I thought they looked. My favorite so far are the guy and gal with flame throwers, but I wouldn't mind getting that boxed set, either. See, here I am already talking myself into buying more minis. Madness!

Love the stuff this month, a nice mix - especially the Cameronian (from Cameroon?! ), the paintjob on him is fantastic.
Think I probably prefer the older female Morlocks and the new male ones, so will try and mix them if possible. I don't think they are terribly effective in terms of rules, but they are certainly very characterful.
Very interesting, thanks for post it Bobbafett! Their table is really cool, i like the outpost setting they've done. Only thing is i cannot understand very well what they are saying, my listen-english skill is low , it would be great with subtitles or something

Just a quick question here. Does anyone know where that figure with the single shotgun (In the big bad wolf photo) comes from? I'm not sure I see it on the Infinity website.

Nice catch, that is either a non-released version of that model or one hell of a conversion. That is the same body as a 45 Highlander from the box set, however that is a boading shotgun version which doesn't exist at the moment. I would assume to see that released in the next two months.

Great stuff with the video Bobafett. For anyone thinking of watching, it gets going after the first 5 minutes or so and is a pretty good intro to the rules.
A rule came up in though that made me think I've been playing it incorrectly. When the O-Yoroi fires a 4-burst shot at one of the Aleph, there are 2 wounding hits (i.e. the Aleph failes his armour save and takes damage). I thought that because the shots came from one weapon burst, he should just go to a KO state. But. the Aleph goes directly to dead. Is that correct?

I also though it was something new, but it is just a weapon option that comes with the 45th Galwegians box.
That miniature is also in this pic, the one on the right.

So when do the new January models become available? I can't find the Cameronian for sale anywhere. Is it just sold out, am I an idiot and can't find it, or is it not out yet.

Those miniatures are not available yet. CB usually publishes the photos a few weeks before the minis hit the stores.

Yeah, it would be cooler if they were included in the price But IIRC they have changed some details in the buildings to make the compatibility with newer stuff easier, haven't they? I don't know if these will be compatible with the first version of the building.

Correct, the wounds taken are compared to the wounds the model has to determine what state they are in at any given time rather then going to a state before further checks are made. Ie if a 1 wo model take two wounds they are dead not KO.
@bobba - Nice! They put a price point out?

I don't know I would also like to see the sheet. But I guess that the first pic posted is like "the official photo", so, if we stick to that image those 12 are walls are enough for the three floors.

Too late for MAS, have already started to invest in the Sarissa range due to it being more modular and complete. Nice wall structures though, and yes it is always better to release a full range when starting, but it is a balance as it is someones money that is being risked in any venture. Good luck to MAS, but for me their boat has sailed.

LOS is really important in Infinity. Also, close-in storming actions are really cool, and utilize some abilities that don't see much play in open-table settings (like pretty much all those Yu Jing hand-to-hand skills and gear).
Interior detailing is really cool once you play with it. Gun battles across a cafeteria with upturned tables are awesome, as are room-to-room tosses of grenades, etc.
Infinity: Way, way better than 40K and more affordable to boot!
