Do the Infinity guys have a program similar to being a Pressganger? I hope to get some demos in at Adepticon and then push for the game in Oklahoma City.

Not at this time. They have considered it several times however they are too small to devote the amount of coordination it would take to do a pressganger type system in all the languages the game support. maybe down the line though.

Yeah, it seems right now the best thing they can have is very motivated people at your local game store. They may not be the official face of Corvus Belli or anything, but I've met a lot of motivated and cool players that approach me while I'm painting and chat me up.
We have one guy who spent about 400 bucks on terrain so we have good, solid Infinity terrain to play on. It really make a difference to see your mini's on a board like Pacific's after all.
I just try to make an impression by sharing my love for the game (mainly the fluff) and just having awesome painted models to play with.

If anyone is coming to the Adepticon this month, on Sunday I'm helping to run demos. So stop by and say hi.

I'll be there on Sunday for the Infinity demos, so I'll be sure to say hello.
Look for me in the shirt with the symbol of the greatest T.A.G. to ever hit the table!

I'd be scared, but as I recall they took away your HGL.
My Mag's still got it.
But the Jotum is still a ridiculously awesome model. You get yours yet? I can't wait to see one painted up!

We haven't looked into that, could you give me some more information, it's not something i've ever used so i wouldn't know where to start. If you can get me links, a quick description and what you want to do i might be able to push it through quickly. I've to pm Yak tonight to get the other stuff possibly pushed through so i could bolt this request onto my pm if you are quick.

Hope it goes well guys, keep us informed and tell us how it all went afterwards!
I know a few of you use the official Infinity forums much more than i. Would one of you advertise the Dakka Painting Contest in a thread over there to drum up support? I think Corvus will be fine with that since they are the ones putting up the prizes. If someone is happy to do that and you are not a DCM i can gives you some of the required info. It might be a good idea to mention that we are growing this section of Dakka too.
I'm still working on a few things for organising an event. I have a few conversations to have still before i can put plans into action. I'm considering setting up an annual event... maybe.
Dakka Glossary Terms and Rank Tracks should be getting pushed through very soon which will be nice for all of us.
That's all for now!

I do have one - it is on my 'to do' list for when I'm finished with my 40K army for Adepticon...

As soon as the school holidays are over i'm going right back to promoting the game locally.
So far i've just been doing demos with the starter boxes, so my next priority must be TAGs!
Tactical combat is one thing, but big, bastard robots knocking hell out of each other is a whole new level of enjoyment!

Welcome to Dakka Dakka!
I certainly recognize your avatar from the 'official' Infinity forums, and it is nice to see you "over here" now too!

Do we have the rules for the Jotum? I really like the look of the Jotum and the Cutter, but only really want one....
Which would go better with an Aquila Guard force?
Also, Warmachine has Forward Kommander, I know we have a Force Creation Toolkit....

Real men chose the Jotum.
The Cutter is one tough mother though - a T.A.G. with TO Camo?!?

They are both awesome.. like Alpharius says having TO is a pretty amusing and effective thing for a TAG, and I'm sure many people have enjoyed using it for the look on their opponents faces.
But personally I would go for the model you like the look of the most!

I think someone should add Infinity to the Army Profiles section. I think that could be a good spot to show off.

I could use some more info but it sounds like a good idea!  Alkasyn mentioned it earlier but hasn't got back to me yet:

I'm getting close to having a full Haqqislam army to post! It has me excited! First time I'm close to having a completely painted army!
Even if this is a low model count game, you guys as fellow gamers know how important that is to a guy.

Thanks for the link. I never use that stuff but it sounds like a good idea to me. I have to pm Yak back tonight anyway so i'll ask him for this too. Should be quite easy to sort out i think so start writing your entries guys!

The army profiles page was one of my original suggestions
You don't need anyone else to create it for you; it's a wiki, so you can add new tags to your heart's content. If anyone needs help putting up a page, PM me with what you want up there and I can have a look at starting it for you.
Sadly I've not got much to show in an army profile yet, so there's no point in me putting one up.

Heh, I think I just got another convert. One of my friends only plays 40k. While he won't stop playing that, he's been annoyed at the Australian prices for a while (though he was happy when I pointed him to dicebucket). While talking about 40k, I mentioned infinity. Free rules, you say? And free army builder? Army consists of 10 models, and only about $100au all up? When are you going to the FLGS next, I'm coming to have a look.
