Transmission start.....
I've been in deep, folks. I played 5 10 games lately with my Neoterran force and I'm really loving the game. I even tried to get a copy of Icestorm from my Gencon ninja but it sold out before we could snag a copy.

I've got to confess it's a lot more fun than I expected it to be.

I don't honestly know if it's any good but I can share my experiences so far. First, you'll notice that my list is small. That's probably because Bolts are pricey! They're Medium Infantry and pay for the higher ARM and Bio-immunity. They have base BS 13, which is nice. It may not seem like a huge bump but I've found it makes a nice difference.

Overall, I don't have weight of fire, I have technological supremacy. I know that sounds fluffy, but that's one of the things I enjoy about Infinity. On paper, a lot of things seem similar, but when you add up all the advantages and disadvantages, the sum of each faction really feels different on the table top. I love that.

I've faced Tohaa more than anything else and I'm about 50% win/loss, which I think is a good sign. That said, we're all just learning so take all that with a grain of salt. Any tips would be more than welcome!

From the hobby side, painting Pan Oceania is sweet. As you can see, I'm pretty far along, though having ordered Icestorm, I am slacking a bit as I wait for the new Father Knight to arrive.

Thanks for reading folks, more soon!
