Totengräber's Workpläce

Went over to Games To Die For to finally play some Infinity. After much goofing around and chit-chatting with the people there, Joel and I got started.

Although I had made a building to use for terrain out of foamcore, Jerry had a couple of pretty big and well-detailed pieces of suitable urban terrain for us to use.

We only used the Quick Start rules and a little bit of my memories from having read the full rules a couple of times. After winning the initiative roll, I went ahead and went first. Pretty much all of my guys moved forward on the field ducking and dodging a hail of gunfire from across the table. I know ths part took a while since it was the first time we were playing, but after just a couple of shots taken, we had the hang of the normal and the face-to-face rolls. In Joel’s first round, my Haqqislam Ghulam took out three of his fusiliers. That round, he revealed his Croc man and proceeded to kill off a couple of my guys. In the end, I had one guy left: Djanbazan while he had a Fusilier, the ORC trooper, and his Croc Man. The Djanbazan finally just jumped on top of some terrain and attempted to pump bullets into all three of his guys. He hit 2 of the three, but they made their Armour rolls and survived while the poor Djanbazan died a good death.

All in all, I think it was a really fun game and will be more fun when we use the full rules and with more tactical thinking.

Having learned my lesson from the Haqqislam figures, I used a Sepia Ink glaze on the PanOceania skin areas. Seems to have come out a bit better.

Also before I figured out to make a glaze, I used a W&N Ultramarine Blue ink on the ORC and the Fusilier Lieutenant.

I have the Haqqislam and Pan Oceania Starter boxes assembled, based, and primed white now. They are at least playable.

Next on the Infinity agenda is building some, well, buildings. I plan on acquiring some foamcore and some Masonite boards of about 2′ x 2′. The buildings might have some damage, but I hope to have full buildings and not just parts and calling them “ruined”.

Sorry for the blurry pics. I forgot to turn on the Macro on the camera.
