Battle Box and Beyond: Infinity Nomads
November 7, 2013 by dignity
Justin is joined by Carlos for a chat about how you should go about expanding your Infinity army to the 200 point level for small tournaments. Kicking off the series the guys will be looking at what you'll want to add to your nomads faction and how it will all work.
Carlos has been kind enough to build up the armies and give us the link for them on the Infinity Army Builder:
JURISDICTIONAL COMMAND OF CORREGIDOR

I really like this series. Great to see it reappearing for Infinity.
That’s a really nice expansion for the starter box, not only for 200 points, but also gives a solid base for expanding to 300 points and provides solid choices for other type of lists too.
Infinity is really a great game; the key point in this video, is that the choice of one or two miniatures can make a big difference. Eight miniatures can give you a decent army, really good for the wallet, though they keep producing so much cool stuff, that you tend to get sucked in 🙂
This is nice 😀 Can You guys make one with Hassassin Bahram? 😀
Nice introduction. I do feel you’re breezing through it a bit quickly. Perhaps, if time permits, you could include a few situational sketches from a game, to better describe how a certain troop performs
Funny I was just telling a friends yesterday how amazingly good I thought Wildcats are. Glad to see Carlos agrees with me!
This is a great start for nomads…
If beast of war has not done this already, could you make a Battle Box & Beyond for Haqquislam?
Good video. The starter boxes are around 150 points. I’d definitely like to see videos for the other factions, showing options/ideas for “the next 50”.
I haven’t had a chance to play infinity yet, so maybe someone can clarify something for me. I thought that you got one SWC per 50 pts, but this list is 199. My question is are the SWC allowed based on the actual points of the list or the agreed upon amount aka 200 points?
The SWC allowance is based on the agreed points limit for the match and not the total cost of models hired by the player, so a player will have a SWC limit of 3 points in a 150pt (or starter box) match, 4 in a 200pt match, and 6 in the standard 300 pt match.
Thanks for the response, I appreciate the clarification.
Talked my cousin into starting Infinity with me (easily done once he saw how awesome my JSA sculpts were and had a look through the website) funnily enough he went for this starter set precisely as it is probably one of the coolest looking sets out there (he wants an Iguana Squadron too) but I will show him this video later for any tips and info! Thanks!!
One of the interesting aspects of Infinity is the “Fluff” which is a blending of history, Anime/Manga, Science Fiction, and Pop Culture…. The stories behind the forces are incredible…
Great idea for a post, sure that a lot of people would find this useful!
