That plasma change makes me wonder if the charontid will go down in point costs, and maybe get a new sculpt.

Considering it is likely to be released as part of EI Sectorial, you would not be surprised.

Just realized I can get my beloved Anathematic back onto the table in high, sectorial fashion!

Damn it, I wasn't going to start a 3rd faction, but those are so cool I may have to. They all look pretty big, though, so is this box going to be more expensive than the other starters?

I wouldn't think so, as the pushback from the MAF starter set pricetag(despite being completely reasonable) was less than pleasant.

Also, they did an across the board price upping to 39,95E but left the MAF box alone at its 44,95E pricetag on August 1st.

In case some people don't get why the MAF box cost more then the other starter it is becouse it is the only starter with a Ajax size model. The other starters were never planed to cost as much and are not cheaper becouse some crying from people that don't understand why the MAF starter is so much. Dispite what all the whinnng of the Infinity forum when the MAF price was set.

While it's not as fancy as the upcoming Antenocitis stuff, I see the Troll Trader are selling a new line of pretty cheap mdf terrain, some of which is suited for Infinity. Considering that it's from "TTCombat" I have a sneaking suspicion that Troll Trader have just purchased themselves a laser cutter

The laser defence platform and walkways both seem pretty good value for money.

Just do a search for TTCombat on fleabay.

I noticed these when i was on ebay earlier. I'm not a fan of the building designs but they are cheap and i think some of the other stuff looks pretty good value. Now if only they would make some decent looking containers...

**Siygess**

Heh, I ordered one of the laser defense platforms and then an hour later they added the missile launcher platform too. Doh! The pains of being an early adopter

**ImAGeek**

That CA starter looks incredible. I think I'm going to have to start CA, with that and all the incredible Morat stuff out now.

**-Loki-**

That CA starter is as good as I didn't want it to be. I don't need a third faction...

I'm holding out......

BARELY!

**Alpharius**

You guys are only worried about picking up a third faction?!?

I envy you!

**Red Corsair**

hey Alph is there a good club that hosts open gaming or infinty tournies in Mass? I only ask as a fellow New Englander getting into the game, there isn't much support in my part.

**Alpharius**

Sadly, not that I'm aware of.

I think the various "Battleground" stores might do...something?

And maybe Pandemonium in Cambridge?

**NuclearMessiah**

I am going to repost this since he is supposed to be released in December and the pic is a pain to find.

**Barzam**

Yeah, I need one of those.

Bah, ok then, thanks Alph. I live in Maine but thought a trip down on occasion would be worth it. Maybe I'll try and get something up and running over here and you can come visit instead

**GrimDork**

Huh. I have almost a full shasvastii force. They could use some company...

Those new CA minis are fantastic, definitely tempting!

Well yeah, I can't let the hobby eat up too much money. Two factions I find perfect for variety in both playstyle and aesthetics.

**Kanluwen**

Teucer, Agema Warrant Officer(ALEPH Steel Phalanx)

He has BS14, a Feuerbach(!), X Visor, and Marksmanship X.
Marksmanship X does not include levels 1, 2, or 3. It does however let you use a complete Order to reduce your Burst to 1 and get a MOD +6 to your BS.

Janzerker posted this as well:

Weapon options are either Feuerbach+VisorX or Sniper Rifle K1

That's a BIG deal as it is the first time we're seeing a K1 Sniper Rifle.

Also it was mentioned Scyllah is a powerful hacker for Aleph. The character's name makes reference to the mythological character when she was a beautiful nymph before being converted into a monster. Far from the TAG people had speculated with.

This will be interesting to see as well.

**Barzam**

Interesting. Quite a few Agema now. They ought to show the basic Steel Phalanx a little more love. This guy looks like he'll be a bit of a beast though.

**Absolutionis**

Considering he's Agema, we can assume Teucer also has MSV 2.

This Marksmanship X is a bit strange. I rather liked the Spotbot gimmick, but I guess this guy is too manly for such things. BS 20 is a bit crazy. Then again, it makes him a nice offensive During-your-turn counterpart to Atalanta's otherwise defensive ARO monstrosity.

I'd really rather see them slow down on the Steel Phalanx stuff entirely and show the Vedic side a bit more love.

Hmm now that is interesting. Obviously not an ARO weapon but you wouldn't want this guy firing at your troops, especially with that gun...

**Knight**

The weapons and skills make him potent for TAG/HI removal role. Should he had MSV 2 he'd be your counter to Marut, Avatar, Cutter and Tikbalang as it has mimetism.

**Erasoketa**

Is that the new HMG Sogarat? Interesting stuff guys, he and the Teucer bits.

Yes it is, funny enough the picture has been around for a few months now, but did not get much notice.

Annoyingly he looks so much better than Mr. Feuerbach that I may wait and do a kitbash. Which probably means I'll need two or something.

No troops left behind = Caskuda profile?

Don't get your hopes up. The Exrah are the only things that have been specifically said are being left behind.

Sounds like a plan!

Maybe we can meet in the middle, if there's a game store...there?
