It might help if I knew what I was deciding. The Infinity site is crashed out on me, so if there's some mega fantastic news, I don't know about it.

It's related to Infinity but not to you unfortunately =P
Infinity site news page is ok to me and there is nothing on their Facebook so I don't think there's anything new =(
I just need an exterior source to answer my dilemma =P
You will know once an answer has been posted =P

Aight, thank you good sir =P
I was wondering if I was to order more stuff from Sarissa.
Thanks to you, I'll wait until I clear my credit card =P

We'll need a bit more substance and a bit more of a description in the title the next time around, please!
On Topic, I think?, I recently ordered some more stuff from Sarissa Precision.
A Helipad, some ladders/steps and another Explorer pod.
Not sure how I missed the helipad the last time I ordered, unless it is new?

It's probably quite recent yeah. I'll have to order one for my Vendetta =P
Have you received your stuff yet ?
I really really love their stuff but still wondering how to count visibility through gantries

I'll probably get some of theirs and some warmill stuff for my table.
I don't like the homogeneous look of "one builder enclaves" that most housing developments are- I like variety. Even a colony setup would have different designs on pods (because one size will NOT fit all).
More than one company make luggage containers for aircraft - but they all work together.

I still want some MAS stuff but it's more expensive than Sarissa so I'll wait a little I think (and most of the stuff I want is not in stock right now)
I will order more Sarissa stuff for sure. Their products are really awesome and it was kinda easy to assemble so that's a big plus. Also, working with modular scenery is awesome.
I'll just wait a little more before ordering, thanks to MarcoSkoll =P
And it looks good even not painted ! =D

There is some really great stuff on the way - an 'L-shaped' apartment building from MAS, and a Noodle-Bar from Warmill amongst others.
But as Chromedog says, there is nothing at all to stop you mixing and matching, and in fact they look great together. I've used the Sarissa stuff for the more industrial/manufacturing areas, and a separate block for residential buildings where I use the MAS apartment buildings.

That's not strictly true for buildings, at least in the UK.
The long pod from Sarissa is £16.
The MAS apartment building is £24-28 depending on who you get it from (£24 for us plus P&P). You can buy a sheet of two extra ceiling pieces from MAS for 4€, then you can use it as three single-storey buildings, each of which is the same bulk as the pod.

I have assembled MAS, Sarissa and Warmill pieces.
IMHO Micro Art Studio all the way. I just wish them to release more buildings with different options.
I had to glue the pieces from Warmill and Sarissa. The quality is ok, but I sincerely prefer the Micro Art Buildings and the holograms. That's the kind of Infinity table I want to see. Like a city from the future.

You are right on that one =P
But in order to get the MAS stuff I want, I need to order everything at the same time(otherwise the £50 shipping seems ridiculous). So it's a bigger investment on the spot =P
Their stuff looks awesome so I'll order some for sure ! Just gotta wait a little before doing so =P
And yeah, the MAS range needs to grow =)

When I have the room, I'm so doing a desert themed residential area. That noodle bar will be the centerpeice. Such a fantastic idea.

Sarissa has some fantastic stuff. I love that new Helipad. MAS is also good. I'm just glad companies are doing stuff like this at all. Gotta love laser cutters!

Sarissa all the way, some of the MAS stuff is a pig to put together, though I do want another Holo set  A bit of gluing is no problem, and to be honest the Sarissa walkways are much more varied IMHO. Looking forward to getting a Noodle bar at some point, to add more variety to my board.

I believe they said in the Warmill thread that it's on the way, perhaps even this month some time.
Same with the MAS L-shaped buildings.

The latest info over on the 'official' forum puts the L-shaped building from Micro Art Studio a ways further out from that, I think.

I'm a Warmill man myself, can't get enough of their products. I'd happily throw some Sarissa and MAS in for variety though.

I think Sarissa's buildings have it all over Warmill's similar stuff.
I do really want Warmill's Noodle Bar and elevated roads though...

I just put together 3 MAS apartment buildings and have to say they are pretty good, tight fitting kits. Though I did have to trim a couple of the peg/hole fitting pieces to get them to go together. The extra roof kits don't contain the locking pins for the roof hatches or the walls for the top of the apartments. They also have balcony floors but none of the other balcony bits, so it is quite an annoying kit really I think my next terrain order will possibly be some Warmill stuff, depending on what they come up with in the future. I would love some more urbany stuff from them. I also want to see their stuff in the flesh Never heard of the company in the OP. Edit again: Actually I have, I looked at this company while I was trying to decide if I was going to order from MAS. Some of their smaller bits (the containers and bus shelter type things etc) are pretty nice, as are the silos. The buildings themselves are not really my cup of tea though.

Someone used the Sarissa buildings for a 'mass effect' style board in a bat-rep over on the official forum, which I thought looked rather nice!

Damn, that's a shame. IJW had one of them at an event he ran about a month ago, although it was a 'pre-production' copy, and he mentioned that they had run into some mass-production difficulties with the kit (I think the ones which were sent out on review to various blogs/websites had some issues reported, so MAS had taken them back to the drawing board).
I'm guessing that those must have been larger issues than were first thought then! Bit of a pain the bum, as those are the final bits and pieces that I need to finish off my board..

With a bit of luck we'll hear more from MAS about future releases after next week.
