So obviously three front arc matters in Infinity like in war machine. Do people typically mark the front facing arc on their miniature bases?

IIRC it's more important to mark the 180 degree points. You have LoF to your front 180 degrees.

I do.
Just makes it easier - I use one of the "colours" for that faction to mark the arc.

For my panO, it's a sky-blue front arc, with white back arc.
For my JSA, it's red and white.

You can see it from across the table, so it makes it easier to work out whether or not you want to risk that f2f roll or not.

I don't use them , but I see how they might be helpful.

A friend of mine playing JSA painted blue/white paints the 180 they can see blue on the base rim and the other 180 white so it matches the colours of his minis.

I've also seen dots done to show where the guy is looking at.

Me, I use the heads of my little dudes.

Gotta get some fresh shots of them, but Psychotic Storm has a similar look (I don't use yellow paints much because I just don't like the colour.)

Oh perfect. Thanks Psychotic. I'll probably do something like that for mine! I'll actually try and snap some photos too!

I'm using LOF markings mostly to avoid those long discussions and roll-offs when someone tries to outflank my toy soldiers. Worked good so far.
