What games to report on

We are doing a lot of Infinity lately (Playing quite a few tournaments etc with local group, so getting lots of practice matches in (or what ifs in the evening after with some beers lol)

What games would you guys like to see videos for though?

We can do a few different games, here is a brief list, any other suggestions will be taken on board.

• Infinity (If you want to see a particular faction, please yell lol)
• Warhammer 40k (including Zone Mortals, and maybe Apocalypse)
• Dead Man's Hand
• Dropzone Commander (When Board FINALLY gets here - dam Kickstarter only 1 year late)
• Saga (Will be a nice incentive to finish painting them lol)
• Bolt Action
• Rules of Engagement
• Dreadball
• Blitzkrieg Commander
• Warmaster Ancients (Again the incentive to paint lol)

We would be interested into looking at other games as well, if there are good enough suggestions :-)

We are planning on getting one or more of Carnevale, Kings of War, Gates of Antares (Possibly after Beta), Deadzone, and a Napoleonic Skirmish game of some sorts (Open to suggestions)  Obviously time and money is a factor in this.

N3 Battle Report

I am uploading this weeks battle report as I type this. We played another scenario from the ITS pack - Frontline.  This is a standard land grab, which leads to a violent midfield clash.

I fielded my newly painted Steel Phalanx force (I will do some gallery pics soon I promise lol) in their debut battle report.

It was interesting playing steel phalanx after Panoceania as the combination of high stats, IDD and Achillies was really  powerful.

Achillies (Spitfire Lt)

Ajax (big hammer)

Phoenix

Eudoros 

Myrmidons (Spitfire)

5 Myrmidons (Chain Rifle)

I think this is basically what my opponent had - sorry haven't got list

Panoceania Epic Painting Saga

I am now, I think at the half way point to getting my Panoceania models painted (hopefully at the half way point at least, I may have got a little carried away lol).

First ITS mini tournament

We had a few of us over to have a mini tournament to give the new season ITS a spin.  We posted a warm up game on YouTube (Here) of one of the new missions we decided to try.  We didn't film the tournament game, as things were hectic enough, trying to organise a third table (the micro art mat was a lifesaver there) and 3 games in one evening lol.

Forces taking part were...

Mike brought his nomads,

Yun used Aleph,

Ceri fielded Yu Jing (I will show his minis when I get some time, they are really cool)

I used Panoceania 

We also had two other players (Aron and Ben) who hadn't played for a while, using Panoceania and Acontecimento. As it was a min tournament pack, we decided to score the best 2 painted and report the top four to ITS.  

The final standing was...

Me (and the crowd goes wild)

Ceri

Yun

Mike

Ben

Aron

We played the Armoury, Lifeblood, and Biotechvore.  It went well.

My PanO did really well in Armoury (full link defending in my game, so was really hard to shift, especially with hacker support), and Biotechvore (I used a bolt sniper that stayed put to give cover fire, and made her BTS save twice before dying in the end, but she killed 3-4 models, and was a giant pain.  Peace Makers if they get luck were great with mech deploy (held mid ground and punished those entering it) and a luck AD sealed the deal.  didn't do so well in lifeblood, as my luck run out.  Hey ho.

Dead man's hand battle report

This one is done more like a tutorial.  We each had 6 basic guys, armed with whatever they had (think we both had 1 shotgun).  Was a simple rescue mission and we tried to explain most of the rules as we went through.  Link [Here]

Dual Infinity Battle Reports

Had a new player over tonight, who volunteered for a battle report.  Was a tensely fought game of armoury.
