New Infinity Beyond Expansion Packs & Week On Beasts Of War
July 14, 2017 by lloyd
Next week is going to be a big one as we dive into the new Beyond Expansion Packs for Infinity from Corvus Belli. Check out this awesome trailer above for a taste of what's in the new packs!
If you're the proud owner of Operation Icestorm or Operation Red Veil but have been unsure about what to add to your forces next, these could be the perfect expansions for you to snap up and a week of content that you won't want to miss.
We will be looking at the sets up-close, examining the troop profiles and fighting plenty of battles too!
So, tune in next week on beastsofwar.com for all the action.
Want, want. want! Though I already bought the suggested expanions for Icestorm so maybe I should wait and see what’s in the packs.
There’s already a list of what things are, but for the sake of ease, it reads
IceStorm
PanO
-Swiss Guard (HMG)
-Neoterra Bolt (Paramedic)
-Kamau (HMG)
Nomads
-Intruder (Multi sniper rifle)
-Hellcat (Spitfire)
-Kriza Boracs, Tunguska Crisis Special Unit (MK12) (this is a new unit, whose profile I don’t think has been released, but looks to be Heavy Infantry).
and for the sake of fairness
Red Veil
Yu Jing
-Daofei (HMG)
-Guilang (multi sniper rifle)
-Zhanying Imperial Agent (breaker combi rifle)
Haqqislam
-Tarik Mansuri (Spitfire)
-Hassassin Ragik (Boarding Shotgun)
1x Hassassin Fiday (DA CCW)
Thanks for that. Some very solid choices they’v made there. I’ve been waiting for resculpts on the Swiss Guard and Daofei so they’re a big plus for me. A few of the others are on my shopping list. Just a shame I’ve already ordered the Zhanying.
Well, I bought _half_ of Red Veil… So yes I am interested. I’ve seen some of the other stuff available, clearly intended to expand that box. I’d like to see what the official recommendation is too.

That was pretty amazing. I don’t even know what I’m getting yet, but that ad definitely makes me want it.
All looks superb and I’m happy to see it avoids some of the things that I tropes that had started to creep into some of the releases when it came to the female models.
I guess the only downside is that both are being released at the same time, because I’m pretty sure I can’t justify pre-ordering both boxes.
I respect you and all @fleety but the girls in infinity have always been like that.
let it go my mate.
I’m afraid I can’t. I’ll happily point out when CB do things right, which they’ve done with all the starter sets and 2 player sets, while conversely I’ll call things out when I believe things go backwards. I’d rather the bootleg and cheesecake range remained separate tbh if it indeed needs to exist and was disappointed when that stuff started creeping it’s way back into the main range. CB aren’t alone in this; other companies take it further as do other hobbies. Ultimately the hobby should be inclusive to everyone but skimpily dressed women with massive books overspilling their bikini… Read more »
fair play mate. like I said I respect your opinion.
it’s a heavy debate with a lot of complex points and these things can get a bit messy.
peace and love and pixie dust
Do things right? You mean do things the way you want?
You left your jackboot behind, should I mail it to you?
Yesterday I picked up my order for my hand picked ‘Beyond Red Veil’ units.
Now I have a good reason to get Operation Icestorm and the real Beyond Icestorm set as well.
I’ll definitely tune in next week.
Ok this Intruder will be my Lady Deadpool.
I’m the proud owner of a lot more than those starter boxes, but I still want both those new sets. Good looking sculpts and nice additions to the force.
now there’s a nice surprise. just what the doctor ordered on a Friday after work to lift my spirits.
really on an infinity high right now and they go and throw some rather sizable logs on the fire.
needless to say i’m in, very cool looking models and a great way to take things to the next level.
A great idea for a release, and nice that there doesn’t seem to be any overlap with the 300pt deals that they released last month (for the Red Veil factions anyway – no what was in the Icestorm ones).
I’ll definitely be picking up the Red Veil booster to fill out more of my Yu Jing and Haqq forces 🙂
One word: Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh! 😀
My old Yu Jing minis are still amazing but looking even MORE outdated now. I will seriously have to consider investing in Red Veil. The new expansion box minis look amazing! Infinity miniatures I think will always be my true love (sorry space wolves) :$
definitely getting beyond ice storm for that new model alone
great looking models.
I believe you left an ‘awesome’ out of the comment 😀
OMG these look great! Will buy the Red Veil one for sure. Kudos to Corvus Belli.
My Aleph need some love too, not a fan of the greek sectorial
Y’all just got a brand new unit with HD+, you can sit right back down for a few months 😛
awesome! cant wait to see some more battle reports with these new minis!
So… does the card terrain get the expansion treatment too? An objective room perhaps? Either way I’ll be getting both.
I was wondering the same thing. The mat in Icestorm and Red Veil is a bit of an awkward size to scale up easily. I’m wondering if they’ll do a full 4×4 printed mat.
CB never seem to do much to cannibalise the sales of their partners, Icestorm/Red Veil had a custom mat so they could be played out the box, but there are already dozens of companies making 4×4 mats.
Love that swiss guard!
I am definitely picking these sets up. I have already expanded both my Icestorm faction with the suggested units from the rule book, the new expansion will give more tactical options putting a force together.
Looks lovely, cant wait to get those minis
Wow the nomads look amazing!!! I super excited
i want them both! really good release! i want them!
Gonna have to get both
I have both the starter sets. One of these days i’ll even get a game!
I am personally thinking of splitting the box with a friend of mine (a PANO player). Always happy to have an extra intruder. Always happy.
