Gosh, it's refreshing to be buying figs from a company that listens to the requests of their consumer base!
And revamps should not just be based on what's "needed", but also on how much certain older sculpts lower the impression that folks have of their line overall. The "Wow factor" of model appearance really does seem to be why a lot folks are getting in to Infinity these days, and models like Uxia do lower that overall impression of quality. It's in CB's best interest to redo the fuggly sculpts before they fill holes in the model line.

I just love the photos of their website.
Every month CB uploads the new miniatures and the photos are impressive.
Every month you go like "Gimme something awesome for my army!" And they upload pure awesomeness.

Except every month I HAVE to buy 2 or 3 new models. Atleast this month there only one must have for me the AC Kurgat, but the SAS models are making me want a Highlander army. The Dakini nice but I have alot, wish you could just buy the arms.

There is enough red on her to make me believe that she is for the Nomads forces. If not...she is clearly a generic Nomad Sniper. Not some other solder for some other army!

Unless you're talking about something else the Hexas are PanO intelligence agents. Just imagine all the worst stuff that's ever been suggested about the CIA then give them evil masks.

Every faction tends to have their colors. PanO is usually white-and-blue, Haqquislam is green-and-yellow, ALEPH is white-and-purple-glow, Nomads are white-and-red, etc. This PanO model seems to really follow the Nomads color scheme.
Regardless, it fits with the already existing Hexas model.
Great model even. Seems like it'd be a nightmare to transport with the high heels and protruding gun.

By the way, when we look at the boots, helmet, comlogs, hexagon pattern... none of the nomads has those elements.
Nomads helmets are usually clean rounded shapes with a glowing dot or line. Nomad boots are multi-layered leather/plastic with those striped sections across the lenght, Nomad comlogs are usually clean shapes that cover part of the hand... About color, Corregidor is red and Bakunin is white and orange.

THe battlefoam mini is also very nice! check out the little battlefoam bag on the base, brilliant.

While I'm not happy about being forced to by the bag, I did need one.

Rarely have I been so happy about being forced to pay a $50+ tax to get a cool little metal dude.
Speaking of the little metal dude in question: Is it possible to field an all-merc force in Infinity? And might that be one of their expansion possibilities for the future?

This one is particular can legally be fielded with the Qapu Haqqislam Sectorial. It is legal for friendly play to build a Mercenary list, but it is not legal for tournaments. There is fluff to support Merc lists if they ever release the faction as a legal freestanding faction in the future. Ther has already been mention of the next Human Sphere sized expansion possibly next year.

Yes, there are rules for merc lists in the main rulebook, but as BlueDagger says, this are not legal for tournaments, just for regular games. If you know they profiles of the minis, there is an AVA (availability) value for each mini, wich means how many of the same you can field. Some are very restricted so they have AVA 1, some units have AVA 4, and the most common minis have Total AVA, so you can field as much of them as you want.
You can build a merc army by including Merc minis, and minis from any other army list. Minis from regular army lists have their AVA changed. Roughly, Total AVA changes to AVA 4, and the other AVA values are divided by half (if a mini has AVA 2 in it's standard list, it will have AVA 1 for a merc list). Minis that originally have 1 are limited to one for each... ¿100 points? I don't remember. I can't remember either if AVA 3 was reduced to AVA 1 or AVA 2, but whatever, it's all in the PDF file of the main rules. If you have bought some random minis just because you liked them, you might be still able to play some games with your friends.

This is from the official forum.
Looks like MicroArt Studio is releasing some kind of Holo-Advertisement as Infinity Terrain.
Hi all
we'd like to present a brand new stuff we designed for your favourite tabletop game Smile_rvmp_by_bad_blood
Corvus Belli graphics were very kind and they helped us in making a set of advertisements with Infinity feel.
This is how our new product [available around the beginning of September] will look. Of course we're still working on it so it's not the final version.
Two sets will be available with two vertical and one horizontal ad, also another set with holoboards designed to fit the catwalk as well as the new building
As you may see on the pictures it will be a HDF/plexi compound product with the holographic advertisements printed on a transparent foil. From the first calculations we may give you an estimate of a price - around 14-18 euro per set
Another news is that our building is almost done. he basic will consist of 3 storeys and we fight to make the final price below 27 euro
Comments are welcome Smile_rvmp_by_bad_blood
Regards
Jan
I think this stuff is better than the walls, because it block more Line of Fire and looks better.
