It’s an exciting time to play infinity. Cant wait to dive into the lore
Quite interesting changes in the lore. Loving the concept art for the Ariadna Frankenwolf 😀
Awesome! Narrative is the driving force in wargaming for me. Really interested in reading the Infinity Lore.
It was mentioned in the video that all of the rules for N5 would be completely digital. Will the Lore Book be purchaseable as a digital release as well?
I should start reading those books
More Infinity lore and artwork? Yes please.
Yu jing are the good guys!!!
All the preview pictures looked so good, I cant wait to get the jetbike models. I also want to know what’s cooking with Aleph and Haqq that they got put in their own book!
i feel like im one of the few ppl who dont like the cyberwolf aesthetic 😅
There are at least two of us.
I assume Haqq and Aleph would be revealed in March, for Adepticon…?
Maybe it has also something to do with the animated series.
That would be good reason, yes.
Oh…this is so cool. Love the fluff!
You can’t escape the Longwang of the Law
I am comment to win, and you can, too!
Am I the last holdout for nice paper copy of rules?
Lore Book Lore Book Lore Book! I love a Lore book.
I’m interested to see how the rules being all digital and free works out, and if other companies take notice and follow your lead. The bulk of the money made has to be from plastic, so it makes sense to let people get for free all the rules they need to work out what plastic they want to buy.
You could already get the N4 and Code One rules for free but they still offered a physical copy, the same for Warcrow. It seems that for N5 they are not going to do that anymore, which is kinda a shame as I like a physical version for my rules but it is not handy if they do updates.
I still like the idea of real books…
In the case of Infinity, no plastic, too!
Some pretty cool things happen in this new video. I’m getting more and more excited to play this game.
Spiify!
I’ve been out of Infinity since its second edition, but I’m really tempted to come back right now!
Après avoir vu l’intérieur du livre j’ai vraiment hâte à la version française, j’aime beaucoup le style manga des dessins .
Can’t wait for the book. Loving the new JSA troops.
Comment! it looks great!
I am really looking forward to seeing the Achilles and friends minis.
What a great reaction to the book!
The more I watch these videos the more impressed I am by Infinity.
So…is this the entire lore of all editions? Or just the “new” lore? Ist there a way to get the “complete”
history of infinity without buying all the “old” stuff (if it is still available and affordable)?
Love the artwork
was wondering if they were going to ever armour or cyborgize a werewolf
Since Infinity had split books for rules and lore since N3 it makes sense to keep the rules digital to allow for constant updates. Not a big fan of that because of how old I am but at least it is free. Let’s hope it doesn’t crash on release day.
I’m surprised the lore is moving away from wider confrontation and normalizing relations with the CA. I’ll have to get my hands on this to see how the story moved forward and where it’s going.
Killian is all of us
Love more infinity and setting growing
Im ssooo looking forward to getting a hold of the new models and lore book!!!
My best guess is that Haqq will be updated after the release of the animated series.
Killian really sells that book. He’s got me thinking about picking it up. Might be worth it just for the painting guide as it’s something I struggle with painting the minis to look good.
The “pods” / vehicles seem interesting, however I get the impression that they’re just “beefier” motorcycles. Obviously I havent seen the rules yet. Would be interesting to see if they turn out to be a form of air-superiority “above” the table instead (granted, then everything can shoot at them).
Cool new lore for N5
I think Corvus Belli is really on to something with having the rules digital, but the lore nicely bundled in a book that you read *NOT* from a screen. Heck. The world of infinity is edging itself into my view. I might have to jump in again!
Never really dug that deep into the Infinity lore but that’s going to have to change.
MAKE VARUNA GREAT AGAIN
been collecting for a while, im aware of some snippets of the lore, but not much, but fully plan to change that with this edition
Fantastic video guy’s 👍
As a rather old times Infinity guy (started with 1.5 I believe) I’m a bit perplexed that the EI basically just gave up / got bored and quit.
Conquering the HS was it’s core thing. It’s kind of an ace move though.
Morat, Shasvastii, Exrah and Ur / EI aspects sitting on the O12-table is a really weird thing.
BTW what’s happening with all the EI units? Are they shutting down or leaving or do they act independently now?
Lore the one thing one can enjoy without friends
Looks interesting
oh no – if i get the book, i’ll end up with the game…. ok I better order it
Loving the look of this, I wonder if there is a Tohaa section….
Digital rules to play the actual game and hardcopy lore to enjoy it!
I like it!
Stunning pictures, really want to dive in the fluff and get to know the development in the infinity universe
I need that werewolf, so cool!
the art in this book is fantastic, cant wait to get my hands on it.
Killian getting hyped for a painting guide says a lot.
I’ve always been interested in the lore of Infinity behind the cool minis.
I love that even in the teaser for this book they are teasing the next book already 🙂
excited for all that lore, especially whats up with achilles
Nah, you’re not getting that book back…
Pour one out for Achilles in Aleph
Loving the hype around Infinity, can’t wait to start playing!
Is it just me or is the 3-D rendering not doing justice to the artwork?
I really can’t wait to get my hands on the Achilles fluff now.
Waiting for my copy will be rude, i’m already impatient.
I think the lore is going to be great!
commenting 4 the win
EI lost interest in conquer? One of the biggest “piano in the bushes”.
