Hey guys,

This event is being run by a friend and myself and was meant to be back in May, but has now been re-scheduled for Saturday 6th July. I had posted in the 'tournament' sections but thought it might be more worthwhile to put the thread here.



Some details about the event:


Infinity Event - The Moebius Incident.
A Campaign event with chilling narrative, come play on specially constructed Cityscape and Mercenary Outpost boards. Beginner or veteran, all welcome!

Force Size: Both 150pt and 300pt lists if possible, or just 150pts. Forces also provided and available for use on the day if necessary.

The Games: A series of narrative games based on missions specially adapted for this event.
The event starts at 12pm, with games lasting approximately 1.5 - 2 hours.
Starting times are around 12pm for game 1, and 2pm for game 2 (with the possibility of a 3rd depending on demand!)

Exciting missions to play with a chilling (really!) narrative running through the event; come and find out what the Moebius Incident is, and if you can survive it!

Terrain includes a specially constructed cityscape made especially for Infinity, and a mercenary base with games played across both boards.


The Place
Total Wargamer, near Evesham: http://www.totalwargamer.co.uk/blog/?page_id=111
As I've said before, this place is a real little Aladdin's Cave, with a wide selection of miniature games - well worth the trip to see regardless of anything else!

The Games
Check out the bottom of this post on the Infinity forums for pictures of our previous event - and the terrain collection has grown somewhat since then!

We will now be fielding a second 'Mercenary Base' type board, set on a Forest World, which hopefully should contrast nicely with the inner city setup.

And and all welcome at this event and any questions please add a post below, or send me a PM!

Hey guys,

Just a quick reminder that this event is coming up this weekend for anyone interested in going! Being run by myself and a friend, providing the CPR is successful on the friend after he has returned from glastonbury ...

And a taster of the background for the event..

And another random teaser for the weekend !

Hey guys, ran this event yesterday. Unfortunately a bit of a poor turnout (hottest day of the year didn't help, and lazy advertising on my part I think) but hopefully the guys who took part enjoyed it!

(sorry for the quality of the pics, really should remember to take a camera to one of these things!)
- The setting was the colony planet of Acontencimento - a Praxis labs biological research facility (inside a military base) has completely dropped off the net. Local spec-ops teams have been directed to investigate and download data from a terminal in the base, detailing the contents of what research has been taking place. This mission had an alpha priority - all troops expendable!



With 4 players (2 per team) both teams had to make their way to a control terminal on the centre of the board..


as they arrive they notice strangely deformed bodies lying near the control panel..


One team arrives, taking cover behind some of the buildings.. both teams then proceeded to knock the crap out of each other and completely ignoring the actual objective!


An SAS trooper finally makes it to the panel, but the moment the data was downloaded, the deformed bodies around the terminal stirred and rose to their feet! Even such a seasoned soldier as the SAS trooper, despite taking down a couple, was overwhelmed and knocked to the floor!


To their horror the SAS trooper, infected by the virulent nannites of the 'zombies' rose to his feet again and proceeded to attack his former colleagues.. Eventually the one side managed to prevail, downloading the data and escaping while all the while fighting off the nannite-hordes..

Part two (and the second mission) coming up..

Thats a nice looking table. The MaK flyer looks good in the green colour scheme. Is that some of the antenocitits buildings as well? Pity you didn't get more people turning up for it.

Looks awesome, if I was further south I'd have definitely attended. I'm looking forward to seeing the other missions.

I wish we had enough players down here to set up something like this. I have a folder on my computer for epic campaings but not enough people to make them work :(

I had my eye on this but was too busy. Really liking Infinity so I'll be interested in the future.

Thanks a lot for the comments guys!

'@Bobman - yes those are Antenociti buildings, they were on sale at £12 each a while ago (very reasonable!)
As for making an attendance we have a plan of action that we hope will help increase it, and really give this bloody great game the playerbase it deserves in this area
- More regular events; we are hoping for one every 4-6 weeks. Possibly branching out to different clubs, stores also for these events.
- Increase the variety of the events. We will alternate between beginner, narrative and next up we're planning an ITS tournament.
- Increase player base at the local club; a mate of mine is going to help me run demo games, and already have another player starting. If we can get 5-6 players taking part at the club I'm sure things will steam-roll from there! Also increase advertising for events (local clubs etc.)

Some photos from the second mission in the event (once again apologies for quality)

The story for this one is that '28 days later' the nano-virus has spread to the nearby district of Nueva-Catalunya. Priority communiques from the Aleph AI have advised that 'containment measures' will be taken in a matter of hours; the city is lost, but there is some chance that some of the civilian populations can be saved. Local ops-teams are called in, and in a rare show of co-operation Yu Jung (a 'Japanese' sectorial) and Haqqislam forces join together to help defend an evacuation point.

The nannite hordes are closing in from all sides, the soldiers present must try and protect those civilians who are still alive!

A couple of civilians run through a road block, infected on their heels.. (we had some special rule changes for the civilians.. this very fat guy had 'no wound incapacitation, a couple of security guards with pistols, an old woman with move 1-1 )


A karaoke hostess and office worker run down the street.. A NAffatun and Karakuri shoot past them.. later on some desperate shots into combat would result in civilians accidentally being shot (perhaps put out of their misery!)


A Yu-Jing trooper puts down suppressive fire over the heads of a foolhardy journalist team.


Hope you liked the pictures guys, and sorry there weren't more of them! If I do see any pics taken from others at the event, I will post them here.
