Has anyone noticed that photo shows Azrai'l carrying belt-fed feuerbach while render model has normal mag?
Or maybe angel just draw that line for no reason?

**Vain**

Well then, this pleases me, cheers for the eagle eye Kan.

**Mothman**

Considering ABH is already fully painted would explain its abscence. Looking at the line up and 2 missing jaguars im guessing the order of Video reveal will be

-ABH (already finished and photographed)
-Jaguars
-Akhali w/spitfire( may come before jaguars)

End of month full reveal
-Azreal
-Yaogats

**Barzam**

Well, that's annoying. The one night in the past week I didn't check the daily deal, and I miss out on those Fusiliers.

**GrimDork**

@barzam me too :( more money for dz infestation I guess... But I really do like the fusilier sculpts.

They took their sweet time & it will be worth the wait if it does all the stuff they list here. Good to see CB doesn't respond rashly to every single rage dump posted over their release schedules.

Now whether or not the site will crash immediately on launch I can't say...

Any updates on their move to a new building?

**Guildsman**

Well, assuming that the army builder ends up as promised, (and I have no reason to doubt them) it'll be an incredible tool. Here's hoping that they can weather the inevitable storm of criticism in the meantime.

**Charles Rampant**

Looking forward to seeing it in action. Mayanet is my favourite app, but Infinity Army has its place as the universal option.

**Absolutionis**

Got ninja'd by hours. Nvm.

Whoops, posted in the wrong thread

Full details from the site,

INFINITY ARMY 5.0 TOMORROW!
The new version of the Infinity Army—the official tool for creating Army Lists for Infinity—will be available tomorrow Wednesday, March 18, completely free of charge, through www.infinitythegame.com/army
This new version includes:
-All the troop profiles published to date updated for Infinity's 3rd Edition.
-An automated lists check system to help the new players.
-A new game engine based on PHP/HTML instead of on Flash, an engine supported by all desktop devices with an up-to-date browser.
In the next weeks, the creation and management of Spec-Ops custom profiles following the Experience Rules introduced in Campaign: Paradiso will be added to this version, completing so the set of basic functions.
But, that's not all! The new Infinity Army is going to be a continually expanding tool and new functions will soon be incorporated, functions like the possibility of saving your Army Lists to your ITS profile.
A smartphone version with a specific interface will be developed at a later date. The list management will be integrated with the organized system of the ITS tournaments and, among other things, players will be able to register for official tournaments right when they create an Army List.
The list of future improvements is quite extensive, so stay connected and don't miss any of them!

Maya is great but really looking forward to seeing how this turns out, I must say!

This is good news!

It is also pretty funny that the person who finally updated you about the launch of ARMY in this thread was...you!

They'll weather it just fine. Helps that English is not their first language, I think.

According to -V-, it is desktop ready. He makes no promises about how it will work on phones and tablets. He will begin working on that once all the Spec-Ops stuff is finalized on the desktop version. I suspect that even after the release, there will be incremental improvements and additional features as people suggest things to him, and of course, find all the bugs that he and the testers have missed. An Off-line version would be nice too.

**Barzam**

Heads up for those interested, Captain Haqqislam, the Man-TAG himself, Tariq is the Deal of the Day at Miniature market. $12 seems like a good deal for him.

**ImAGeek**

It's up, but not loading anything for me
http://www.infinitythegame.com/army/

**overtyrant**

Loads for me but bugs out after i select a unit.

**ImAGeek**

Seems to be working now.

**Siygess**

Heh army builder goes up, site goes down.

**Henshini**

The export to pdf button doesn't work for me and I don't see a print button, but I'm forced to use a crummy old version of IE here at work, so I might not have full functionality.

**Pacific**

I'm able to access the Army Builder, but get a database error every time I try and click on a unit..

That's what I'm getting. In all honesty I will be using toolbox and infinity pool until they sort there gak out.

**Pacific**

Yes right..

As a distraction whilst we are twiddling our thumbs, AG has just put his Scarface and Cordelia miniature up for sale for.. $600!

I'm intrigued to see how much that will sell for

I havent tried it this evening, but earlier on I created a force and exported to pdf without any issue on Chrome. It may be just too many people using it now causing the errors though.

Well that's going to be a fairly big issue if they cant get an offline one sorted out.

**Red Harvest**

Offline version? Roll your own with this software http://www.httrack.com/

There is a way to print to file (ie make a pdf) with firefox and chromium, at least on Linux systems... they do it natively. For Windows I think you need some sort of plugin called cutePDF.

**Pacific**

Oh cheers for that Red Harvest, that looks like it will be very useful.

Although I guess the bloody website has to be working in the first place!

Still getting a database error when trying to click on the entries.

None the wiser from looking at the official forum topic. Other than a comment that apparently an offline version is coming at some point (although that doesn't help our current predicament!)

**caylentor**

I'm pretty sure you won't be able to download the entire SQL backend of the application with HTTrack, though if you fancied it you could always download the front end and build your own MySQL DB...

It might be faster than waiting for CB's site to stop being DDOSed by players!

**Pacific**

Working now for me, hurrah!

Think the tips are a really nice idea, a couple of friends of mine are just getting in to the game and I'm sure it will help with the list building.

.. So bets on when Sibylla will be released as a miniature?

My guess is in time for Archeron Falls. Probably a preorder bonus. If not, expect a bootleg shortly thereafter.

New Army builder is working pretty well. Still a few bugs, but it's functional! Now they just need to overhaul the wiki for 3rd ed.

**Red Harvest**

...And the CB site is down :( Plus I get a 404 if I use a direct link to the Army5. Perhaps this will spur -V- to get something for off-line use sooner. The database for the thing cannot be too large. All the unit data for ALEPH toolbox is in one 311.3kb file. The Again I hear the PDF files from the Army 5 are enormous. :S

The Web site downloader did not work for me, at least with its default settings.

I hope that the Sibylla mini would be a bootleg release. It would be a perfect HVT mini. So would a resculpt of GoGo Marlene.

What are the rumored releases for this month anyway?
Azra'il
Yaogats
Biker ABH
and this is it?
