USAriadna Goes to Cancon 2017

Its time to defend that constitution.

Having whelped this 300 point army, it was time to take it to the big leagues (for me!).

I paid for a ticket and travelled to Canberra for CanCon 2017, Australia's "Nationals" for Infinity and what looked like a tonne of other game systems out there.

By this stage I had played seven games with USA... eight if you count that battle report from 2015... but I was dead keen to enter the beauty pageant!

And if getting punished in 5 games over two days against the best in the country is what it takes to get there then by Jove that's what I'll do....

It's been a long time between games for me- but even more so for my regular (semi-regular?) gaming group.  So it was my pleasure to host and watch two beautifully painted armies smash into each other in furious combat.

Both armies have had some serious painting done and it was time for the Dragao to take on Achilles in hoplite armour backed up by Hector!

It was set to be a clash of Homeric proportions... and I was not disappointed!

AAR: INFINITY: 200 points- Combined Army vs. ALEPH Steel Phalanx: N3- Supremacy

"As we reach for the farthest of stars, total annihilation is upon us."

It has been some time since my small gaming group had played a game of Infinity.

As part of the motivation to get our painting completed we had penned in this occasion as a welcome party for the newly painted models.

I have been dabbling a bit with the vanilla Combined Army lately and my friend had just finished some Myrmidons- so it was decided... to battle!

AAR: Infinity: 300 Points: ALEPH vs. Neoterran Capitaline Army: ITS2014- Supply Run

Battle ready!

I was lucky enough to be able to observe and report on a batrep from my gaming group between two fantastically painted armies at another FLGS.

I won't blather on too much- on with the reporting!

AAR: Infinity: 250 points- MAF vs. ALEPH: ITS2014- Quadrant Control

I want your boots, your keys and your motorcycle...

This was a friendly (re)-match at my local gaming club.

It had two goals: 1) Try out my first stab at a 250point ITS list and 2) Gain greater familiarity with ITS scenarios.

My opponent was the same gentleman who played against me in the last match.  He had tweaked his list and was keen to see how he'd go with a few more orders in his pool.  And just like a fortnight ago- he brought a big bag of chips!  Yummy!!!!

Without further ado, let's get into it shall we?

Infinity AAR: 300 Points: MAF vs. ALEPH: ITS2014- Quadrant Control

ALEPH

Hello again!

It's been a long time since my last post as real life finally caught up with me.  I have, however, finally got my painting on and lined up a game at my local gaming club.  It was a friendly match to work out a few more rules issues and get more familiar with the ITS format.

Without any further ado....

Infinity AAR 2: MAF vs ALEPH

Smoke, smoke, smoke.

This was the second game I played versus KFC a few weeks ago.  I normally try and write these up as soon as I can while the memories are still fresh but life got in the way (as usual!) so now I'm trying to scrape together my vague recollections prompted by the photos that I took.

Infinity AAR #1- MAF vs ALEPH

We played the Infinity starter scenario over the weekend.  It was 160 points and a blast to play with plenty of action, tension and the game always in the balance right up until the last turn.

For the uninitiated, the starter scenario is based around the capture of three objectives spaced equally apart in the centre of the battlefield.  Each objective is worth a whopping 75 points.  Killing enemies also nets you points but it is secondary to capturing the objectives.  There is a 4 turn limit (maybe it's 3 turn limit) on the game meaning that hiding and sniping isn't really an option!

I brought my Morats and my mate (aka KFC) brought along his ALEPH.  The EI and the AI were going to thrash it out!
