After Action Review: Operation Hybrid Force: An Infinity Battle Report

Image
We're back again with another Infinity Battle Report, this time seeing the forces of the PanOceania Kestrel Colonial Force face off against the Japanese Successionist Army Shindenbutai. This battle report is very similar to the one played over on OnTabletop, as we are both using the forces provided within the Operation Sandtrap box set, one of the mission from the box set, and using the gaming mat and terrain from the box set. We set out to use EVERYTHING only from the box set, but my opponent (who got the box early) forgot them at home; and we needed Classified cards, to which those did not come inside the box. Also, in typical fashion, I did not take many/any pictures during turn 3. We were expecting the game to go a LOT faster than it ended up going. I also managed to forget what most of the classifieds that were drawn for this game. More on that later. There's also no side-story for this one, I did not have anything really planned for it, so here we go! (A week post-game th...

After Action Review: Operation Nightsong Part 2: The ForCo Raid: An Infinity N4 Battle Report

Image
We're back with yet another rousing game of Infinity N4! This time I was playing against my buddy Carlonius, our resident Military Orders and USARF player in our local gaming group. That said, he brought something I was not really expecting: Foreign Company! He did mention later on that the main reason he brought them was because he commissioned me to paint the Soldiers of Fortune box for him at the beginning of the year, and I don't know if they'd even seen the table since delivering them. Instead of bringing the Merovingians back out, I am going to let them sit for a while and I broke out my trusty Kosmoflot. Ghost00 mentioned my inclusion of a Volkolak missile team (as you will see below) was likely because of me having to fight off his Riot GRRL pure core with a missile launcher last week. He is not totally wrong, but a Volk Missile Pure Core is relatively cheap to pull off, and it's a safety net I like to use. The game we played was Infinity ITS 16 Frontline at 300...

After Action Report: Operation Nightsong: An Infinity N4 Battle Report

Image
 So it's been nearly a full year since my last post on here, and a LOT has changed in life. Between my local game store closing, picking up other games like Bushido from GCT Studios, Half-Tilt from TTCombat, and Fallout Factions and Wasteland Warfare from Modiphius, I have had a load of models to work on and not a lot of time to play games. But onto what this post is about, likely my final game of Infinity N4! I broke out the Ariadnans from the  Merovingian Rapid Response Force for possibly the last time for a while to take on my buddy Ghost00's Nomads from Bakunin. The game was a standard 300 point game using the ITS16 mission for the Direct Action Mission: Battleground ; the rules for that mission can be found here . Unfortunately, I made my list with options for Frontline, cause I forgot what mission we had initially agreed upon! Obvious disclaimer for this battle report is I have not played much infinity beyond a series of demo games since easily April of 2024, so saying I...
