I'm surprised that they have five releases (total of 9 minis) for August. I was expecting a reducd amount because of all the other things going on-- Red Veil, GenCon, and Interplanetario .

If they release anything less than the average, Crovus Belli risks the Wrath of Kan.

More likely the O-Yoroi pilot will be a bootleg release. However, CB did release the civilian minis (variants from the RPG minis) as regular releases. I doubt that they will re-classify the bootlegs. We'll see soon enough. The rumor is that all the renders shown at GenCon will be released this year.

The July releases totalled 18 miniatures. Does it matter if they were bundled as 3 releases? It is a large number of minis. They usually release 5-10 in a month.

Edit punctuation.

They said in the video that TAG pilots will have a bigger role in future, so I think the O-Yoroi pilot will be a proper release for the game, not a bootleg release.

I'd be very surprised if CV went 15mm for fantasy. They know there's a lot of ex-Confrontation players who would love an alternative, and the quality of their recent minis is exceptional; they appeal to painters and collectors, not just gamers. 15mm doesn't hold the same appeal because they don't work as showcase minis, so sales will be reduced considerably.

I think the difference between X-wing and Infinity is that people know in advance what "should" be released. You know there is X Ghulam profiles and Y Bolt Profiles and some people are unhappy when their favourite profile isn't released or hasn't been released for a long time.

If we had profiles for Bolts before their release ("will be better in N3") the majority wouldn't mind seeing them pushed back, indefinitely.

I am not following this well but what about bolts is going to change or hasn't came out yet?

Don't stress BrotherGecko, I was using Bolts as an example, saying that people know there are a certain amount Bolt Profiles but the miniatures only represent a lesser amount and we don't know when they will be released.
I am not a Pan-O player so I will fall back to my Ghulams as the example.
"There has been a Ghulam Profile with a Light Grenade Launcher for years, where is that model? I want to use it! Gimme gimme gimme! Stop making models that I don't use until you have filled out the holes in my army!"


Compared to the forum talk of X-Wing which is more like "You know, there is that one scene where Scruffy Starmuncher gets captured and has to escape in a Phi class dock-shuttle. Maybe we will get a Phi class in the next release?" Since every model comes out with it's own rules there isn't the complaint that we know something exists but cannot access the official sculpt of it.

Whew!!! You had me worried because I just convinced myself to paint my Bolts haha.

Same here. I just put the box and starter Bolts together!

Just to screw PanO over, they'll probably give all TAG pilots specialist operative (but only so long as they're outside of the TAG).

Tohaa too, you can't put a symbiont back on.

Late,but the guys from BOW did publish a good quality video of the GenCon seminar.

So a new ALIVE thing dropped and it's an audio file that once people removed the static appears to say something like:

"You will all [clicking noise] serve us .... surrender your life [?]... All will survive."

https://archive.org/details/AliveSample

But when you play the original backwards it sounds like:

"In our darkest hour she will be our light, always alive"

Should be live soon.

Um yeah, please make sure you've linked the right one because the other is Pay Per View.

No clue, it wasn't Pay per view on mine.

Here's the replay - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yJ3Qtw5Gvek

Incoming Pics:

Even more pictures.

Marauders Group shot.

I see many things I want. I absolutely love the Ayyar design. I'm also very pleased to see a Govad blister and more Suryats.

It's also the second TAG pilot we've seen art for now.

Raicho could stand a resculpt before it gets a pilot figure. That thing is horribly out of scale with the entirety of the Infinity line.

I also noticed that the Ayyar is wearing a Kaplan helmet. It's a nice touch to see that on more Haqq troops.

Holy gak, an Ariadnan holding his shotgun like a normal person?!

Guijia Pilot from the Official forums.

There's also scuttlebutt about a 15mm version from their "CB SHameless Market Research"

She's not showing enough chest clearly.

It's hot inside a TAG.

Be happy it isn't Battletech art, it was REALLY hot inside those mechs.

Skimp on the heatsinks, skimp on the clothing...

You're free to paint the region whatever texture/color you want.

What's this about 15mm? 15mm Infinity, or just bringing back their 15mm historicals?

15mm Infinity.

I haven't watched the video in whole yet, apparently their list went up to 13 for the research and one of them was a 15mm Infinity game.

I need that Montessa in my life. Does anyone know if it will be available on its own?

Never, unless you buy from Shaekonnit. He's part of the ASA starter set.

Also, those Marauders will be mine. I might even buy three boxes.
