INFINITY



Its been a while BUT I am back. I actually thought I lost the blog briefly when my lovely, well intentioned wife deleted my Gmail account on accident. Thankfully I was able to recover it and were back in business.

I havnt done much hobbying (new word) since I finished the trench table. I ordered some Infinity miniatures with my gaming group back at the end of December from SciFiGenre.com and had them sent to MiniaturePaintingAuthority.com to be painted. Ill be writing a review on my experience with MPA as soon as I get the models back. Its taken quite a while longer then I expected but hopefully theyll be in the mail by the end of the week. We ordered Panociana, Haqqislam (pictured), and Nomads.

I also ordered some scenery from the guy(s) at Sarrisa Precision. They make some amazing and affordable laser cut MDF (or HDF) terrain. I ordered the smallest "pod" and 4 shipping containers and will be doing a review of those sometime this week. Long story short I plan on ordering much more from them.

 Im currently brainstorming what I want to do for my Infinity table. For those of you not familiar with Infinity, its a 28mm TrueScale (as opposed to 40K which is Heroic Scale) scifi skirmish game. Terrain is VERY VERY VERY important to this game. Unlike alot of games, where if you have too much terrain itll just slow the game play down, in Infinity if you dont have enough terrain your game will be over very quickly. Right now Im leaning towards re-purposing a 4X4 board I started to make for Warmachine a few months ago and doing a mountain hill stream snow sci-fi outpost Ariadna type board. Whatever, it makes sense in my head.

Thats all for now, hopefully ill be updating much more often. AND hopefully ill have some beautifully painted miniatures from MPA to review soon.
