Oh god I can't afford to get into Infinity as well, it's bad enough that I've just picked up a Malifaux crew.

@Formosa - I've got an (unpainted) Ariadna force for infinity if you're interested in the game. Haven't played it yet, just bought the models I liked the look of and roughly made a list out of that. Think it's about 300 points in total? I seem to vaguely remember building an army list before making the purchases to make it game-ready.

Would be happy to give it a go at some point, but am still currently not able to attend anything due to work taking me out of Norwich for the next 4-6 weeks or so. On the plus side, it'll give me time to get the models painted up.

I must admit I do like the look of Infinity but it'll have to wait until sometime after I've bought a car (some time around late November/early December) hence why I can't afford it.

Really should have jumped on one of those starter deals being offered a few months back.

Still 40k, Fantasy, Firestorm Amada, Flames of War, Malifaux, Operation Squad and Warmahordes are enough to keep me going for some time.

You can never have enough game systems/armies.

It's gets worse when I think about how much I have for each system:

40k: Black Templars, Chaos Marines, Eldar, Grey Knights/Inquisition (pre wardification), Imperial Guard and Space Marines
Fantasy: Dark Elves, Empire, Lizards, Ogres, Skaven and Tomb Kings
Firestorm: Directorate, Sorylians
FoW: Mid War Aussies, Late War Brits, Late War Germans
Malifaux: Outcasts (Viktorias)
Operation Squad: Red Army, Waffen SS
Warmahordes: Protectorate of Menoth

Ok most of the 40k/Fantasy stuff isn't really an army but a few units ditto for the Aussies. The rest however are all usable on the table.

TBH though if I weren't trying to introduce FoW and Operation Squad to the club I wouldn't have so much stuff for them.

Infinity does look cool, there are a lot more minis than I was expecting, what's it play like?

Already seen a couple of sides i'd be interested in, however I just don't have that much disposable income at the moment and I want to get my Beastmen to at least to 2500, plus i'm looking to possibly expand on my dust tactics collection (however I haven't picked a side yet so not sure whta to get) also GoW 3 and Space Marine are out this month.

By the way all, i'll be bringing Dust Tactics next week if anyone wants a game (not necessarily against me)

@James100 i'll give you game if you like but i'm still learning.


@Nick I was really tempted by FoW, was in hobby craft, nearly bought the book. Then the Mrs reminded me that we need a load of stuff for the house. So eneded up buying some tea towels and oven gloves. Nearly as fun i'm sure

That's ok, i've only played beastmen twice.

Do Daemons work the same way they do in 40k?

Deamons are the pre-eminent fantasy army, they work more like space marines (forgiving) the trick is to take away any rank bonus they may have, deamons crumble similer to undead.

Bloodletters have KB as well, but vs beastmen this is kind of pointless, very little armour anyway, your best bet is to pin them with minotours and hit them in the flank with some rank and file troops.

there characters are very nasty, kairos being maybe the best, to be fair i would try to not use any uber characters in such a small game

Gorilla do you want a Malifaux game on Monday? I might have just about got my head round the rules by then. My crew is already built ,I'm thinking we should go for a 30 Soul Stone game as that would give us a decent pool for use in game after we've bought our crews.

Also if anyone is interested I hope I'll be able to demo Operation Squad (albiet while figuring out the rules as I go), no promises as I've still got to build the Waffen SS army but I should be able to get them done during the week.

I'd like to, but aren't we doing Dark heresy next week?

Probably not as I need to have a chat with all of you about it. There are still some problems which need to be resolved before we can continue.

Yes we can have a malifaux game Nick. 30 SS is a good start. I believe gooda is bringing his malifaux down too so we may be able to get a few games in.
My base inserts are 'awaiting stock' so i'm going to cancel the order i think and just do the normal sand look. Dissapointed really, think they would have looked good on Victorian streets scenery.

Thanks for that

And i'm not using any special characters as quite frankly i dont have any. i'm using liturally the contents of the battalion and a character. Also remember where only doing 1000 points so no greater daemon or anything big really.

I can play 40K, but if you prefer to play someone with fantasy that's fine. I will work on getting my post count higher.

I don't mind playing competitive, a good hiding can be educational. I don't mind what time, might depend on gw
