Carlos tells Warren about the contents of the new book for Infinity... the long awaited Campaign Book.
The new campaign book will open a lot of new and interesting possibilities to the game play of infinity. Can’t wait to get it into my hands and read trough.
I’m looking forward to start the campaign with my buddies!
I hope the xp system will not destroy the balancing of the game…but i think it wouldn’t since corvus is very attentive at this apsect and i appreciate it!
Got my copy pre-ordered already!
Finally! Mystery prize? Sounds awesome. 🙂
Woooo!
I love a mystery prize! Pick me, please! 🙂
Aaron
just give me my mystery prize 🙂
So excited for this book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This book is really needed for the campaings, and the mini for reserving is a nice freebie
I cannot wait for the book! Infinity is such a great system for campaigns, and its great to see it get some official campaign love.
I want this book!!!
Best part of the video is at 16:34 when Warren starts talking about the different missions!
so excited for new infinity!
I am INCREDIABLY excited for the Tohaa video! I’m betting the prize is the book and/or the Tohaa starter!!
If its a Mystery, then I want one 😀 Yay
CB’s problem is that they put too much awesome in their products.
I approve!
A campaign system is what this game has needed for a LONG time. The lack of missions and objective had me put down this great game years ago. Glad to see this, might even get me playing Infinity again.
Awesome. Can’t wait.
Ohh its a bad day to be my wallet. Recently dropped Warhammer/40K as the model count hit the wallet too hard (and the boredom of painting) so I got into Warmachine/Hordes (and so have my mates which is more unusual) but I keep getting drawn into other games like Infinity and Malifaux… Must resist.
I’m just a collector at heart and a gamer when the time presents itself, so when companies begin stepping up their game i cannot help but look… and spend. If given the opportunity I would gladly pick up another system.
The pre-order on CB website says that the expected shipping date is “the end of September”.
Can we expect to find this book available for purchase at Gen Con 2012?
Hello, Darkmantis.
The new Infinity Campaign Book won’t be available in GenCon this year.
It will be available in September.
Thanks for your interest.
Hello, Bostria,
Thank you for the reply. Pre-order placed =)
This is gonna be awesome =D
Oh wait, it’s already awesome.
Even more awesomeness !!!!
This campaign is amazing. I have never, ever been as excited about a product as I am now. One question. How did you make that white table with the great geometric designs on it?
I mean the surface itself. One of our biggest challenges right now is finding good cheap ways to have very Infinityesque table surfaces under our terrain.
I’d suggest stores that cater to architects. I got a few sheets of plasticard with imprinted hexagons in one and nothing is more Infinity than hexagons.
This is a problem I’ve been having too, didn’t think of architect stores cheers 🙂
I love hexagons
The sound of Bostria in this video is too low…
B.
Gosh, this might mean another army for me… /me goest to work more to be able to spend bazillions of moneyz 🙂
Campaing rules sounds awesome, great move CB. Waiting for mystery prize and rules books on my hands.
cool cant wait
I sure do hope, that they make the special ops upgrades/command and control printable, because I don’t want to doodle in the shiny new book.
Hello, Berlec.
When the time comes, there will be the printer friendly charts available for free donwload in the Infinity official website.
So you can write down the upgrades of your spec-Ops, your army, the missions you have accomplished succesfully, the surviving units….
Have a nice day.
Well, it sounds really interesting. Can’t wait for the ‘exclusive BoW mission’ this week. Maybe even before the Spec Ops themselves are revealed there could be some sample use for their rules using the already existing ‘character models’ such as Joan d’arc or Wallace, just to give players a taste of what character development and ‘real death’ shall be like in the new book?
I cannot wait to get this book in my hands, this will keep me happily gaming for some time.
This is the book i waited for. What is better to take new players into this narrative campaign book and them really feel the vibe of the Infinity world. Again a great cooperation between Beast of War and Corvus Belli!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it about time! made it on my top10 shopping list
This is just soo much good stuff I can’t wait!
Finally!!! epic! I want my copy now! 😀
Oh, one question. Will there be a points equivalency table for the Spec Ops character at different levels of experience to allow the use of him / her in regular (non-campaign) games?
Hello, siygess.
By now, with the release fo the Campaign book, the use of Spec Ops is limited to Campaign book rules. While I’ve been hearing about some saucy ideas of the use of this miniatures in the future, there is nothing “solid” or “official” about it… yet.
Have a nice day.
Narrative missions, characters that advance AND new stuff for everyone? I guess it’s time to run around in circles and scream “Woooo!” at the top of my lungs.
I bet its a beast of a mystery price :D.
Super pumped now! Been waiting awhile for this book!
Can’t wait for this book! What I love about Infinity is how well everything is thought out and works in the game. The new mission/campaign system doesn’t look like it will disappoint!
I want this book more than a bacon topped bacon butty with bacon flavoured bacon sauce!
Yep, while watching this video I’ve already contacted 3 other people to organize a campaign. One campaign game or 2 a week and we should be busy with this till Christmas time! 😀
Awesome! Just got my copy of the Infinity BRB, so great timing for another Infinity Week! 🙂
Wow i need that book now.
One question, the free mercenary means that you can play a mercenary not paying the cost on points?
This game is already awesome now with missions and a campaign system it’s going to be post awesome.
I’ll take the Mystery Box, it could have anything… EVEN A BOAT!
Awesome! Can’t wait to play the narrative campaign mode! Also look forward to play my myrmidons as sectorial!
…Spec Ops…I love ’em!
Great, Infinity has excellent background. One grounded in strict science fiction. There is a.i., hackers and a background of many current nations in the future. There is no “magic” or otherwise fluff pasted in this background to patch up things.
Great job Corvus Belli. Keep it up!
If you haven’t already played, do it! You will not regret it. It’s a fantastic game, figs, and price. I’m very much looking forward to this book. I think it will also really help CB/Infinity break out more popularity.
Infinity yay! Awesometits!
I literally can’t wait to get this!!!!
I have never been so excited for something in my entire hobby experience. This campaign not only looks awesome, but the replay-ability looks HUGE! I’m truly astounded Bostria and CB folks.
300pts? Ideal for the new Army packs then!
There’s only one thing to be said about this book: “Shut up and take my money!” XD
I’m really excited for this new book. Even more than I was, when I got into the Game during Infinity Week One.
But I do hope the Campaign Management gets incorporated into Army Infinity, as there seems to be quite a lot of book keeping to do. (Army XP; Spec OP XP, Dead Characters you cannot use anymore,…)
I had allways enjoyed nearly every release from Corvus Belli’s Infinity: The Game range. Even though I never won anything, I allways give it a shot. 😀
Well, this is finally going to get my group to play Infinity. Well done CB, well done.
How my wallet gently weeps…
Looks incredible, can’t wait to get stuck in!
It seems like interesting concept for a campaign. Wonder if there will be new campaign books centered on new planets and sectorials such as Svalarhelma?
So cool, I can’t wait to try the new book.
Really curious what the overall story Coruvs Belli has created. I’m quite intrigued about the “Create-a-Spec-Op”. I really like the Command and Control as well. Consider me giddy!
narrative missions, tasty good!! Very good!
My bank account
My credit card
And my wife…. hate you Corvus Belli.
I however…. bow to your Awesomeness.
😀
Looking forward to the new Infinity week. Corvus has done a good job of building up all the goodies that have on the horizon.
Love what I’ve seen so far. I hope that the spec ops character for Yu Jing is usable in a JSA list, since I don’t play any non-Japanese Yu Jing.
Love the Tovaa too. Looks like I’ll be getting a third faction sooner than I thought.
This book is going to be better than I ever dreamed!
I can’t wait to get my hands on this book
nice!
I really like the idea of making your own hero. By the end it’s like the hero has been to hell and back, living to tell the tale. The way it was layed out, the hero doesn’t seem to have much use after the campaign, outside friendly games. Other than that, this stuff is golden!
If it’s mysterious, it must be terrain, and I want that MAS terrain before you as a prize:D
No, seriously, pick me!!!
i love infinity!
I am really excited about this!
Wooot, look i’m commenting, i’m commenting. The book is awsome, can’t wait to play this OMG!! XD
Will buy book! Fondly remembering old Necromunda -Campaigns …..
whats beter ten infinity week 2 on beast of war ?
easy: infinity beer on brest of war
ok now i need only a time to play this …… end is an urgent call
I hope the prize is terrain, the only thing holding me back from getting started in Infinity is my lack of terrain and terrain-building skills.
…DOG WARRIOR SPEC OPS PLEASEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!……..REALLY MEGA COOL IDEAS!!!!!!!!…….
I think Infinity is one of the better game system and I hope that with this new book Infinity is gonna be the best miniature game system. Everything which allows more possibilities and depth to a game is surely welcome!
I LOVE THIS GAME!!!!
What am i supposed to tell my poor wife? When playing so much she might start to suspect that i am having an affair ;-))))
I’m new to the setting and game of Infinity, but I love the miniatures. Picked up a few and painted them some weeks ago and I have to say the detail on them are killer to a painters eyes, yet if done right look amazing. I primarily run RPG games and at the moment my group is trying out Eclipse Phase (please give it a look if you’ve never heard of it). These miniatures are perfect for the setting, but it also makes me realize there are not a lot of minis out there that have a basic sci-fi look. Try to find a guy with standard sci-fi clothes and not wielding some large BFG and you see what I mean. Looking forward to learning more about the setting and the system itself…and I’m especially wanting to know more about the new faction!
Man I love this game! I can’t wait to hear more. Love the “week of” series’.
slartybardfast
Cant wait to see what the Haqqislam Spec Op looks like.
Have to say, Infinity Week 2 fills me with glee. That there is also details on the new campaign book is causing serious strain on the facial muscles.
Is the prise more mysterious than captain black’s masters
ONE spec op per faction? BUT, I want a female and male version of the spec op for each. please
comment for prize 😀
Looks awesome! Going to order my book now… be right back!
Can’t wait.
I’m giddy!
I’m stocked for one that the Aleph Spec. Opp is female since I my self am a female player. Second off the whole campaign system is going to be a wonderful breath of fresh air. I have so far enjoyed the world very much so and look forward to this new content. Also the book preorder civi mini is kind of a nice add on.
Missions designed for 300 point lists?!? Me like!
I can’t waaaait! 6th’d 40k ain’t got nothing on this.
Not that I own sixth edition. Why would I when I can get this?
Book…nao…not end of september…nao…gods this is going to be a long, month and a half.
Still wonder if the Command and Control stuff for the campaign and Spec ops will be just book or if we’ll get a small windows app for it…
Another great Infinity must buy!
Finally it is time for me to get back to Infinity! The campaign system sounds really cool.. Although, I have a question. At the moments we are only in two playing Infy here, is it possible to run a campaign only with two armies? I mean, how does the campaign tree would work with just to (possible three) opponents?
I can’t wait for the book to come out.. the Spec Ops rules and new faction more than anything !
I have the same concern as malombra. We are only three players locally here.
I’ve been looking forward to this book for quite a long time. And it’s perfect timing since I’ve been growing a local group. They are becoming solid players and this will be very fun for all of us.
Soo looking forward to this BoW Infinity Week
Why?! Why do you have to be released after my birthday instead of before?! Corvus Belli I would melt down my Imperial Guard and make a shrine to your greatness if I could….
Fantastic can’t wait, time to get cracking and get my Aleph ready for the campaign.
Just a few questions for the corvus guys…
1. Will there be a poster available of the campaign book cover?
2. Are the missions suitable for Tournaments?
1. Yes, probably a poster of the Spec-Ops cover will be done.
2. The Campaign book mission can be played at tournaments if the players want to do it, of course. By the way, I think that the next ITS season will include some vanilla/generic missions easier for all the players (veterans and rookies) and not as “specialist troops demanding” as the Campaign book are.
comment added, crossing fingers…
Toha! – Gesundheit!
Very promising! Preorder is as good as done.
This new book sounds like its going to make an already awesome game into the perfect game in my mind. I cant wait for it!… On a side note, I hope I win!
Really looking forward to this one, campaigns are all thats really been missing from infinity.
I have to say, although our main game is 40K, and I really like 6th edition now I’ve played a few games, its this book thats excited me this year, we only started playing infinity after the last BOW infinity week, but as a set of game rules, and as a model collection, Infinity is probably the best on the market in my view.
The thing that really stands out to me from this overview is how well thought out everything seems to be. Well done to all.
I am delighted on the campaign book on how it advances the gameplay how it introduces a new way to play the game, on what it brings forward, but more importantly, I am amazed on the solutions of old problems on running a campaign with linked scenarios experience and balance.
I am blown away on how simple yet elegant and clever the campaign system solution CB put forward is.
I really cannot wait to get that book in my hands.
FINALLY! it’s been so long waiting for this book. hurrah!
I like Infinity and free stuff, do i win a prize?
I want this book so much. I have been craving some new options to spice up my Infinity games and this should be great.
been waiting for so long! preorder placed 😀 😀
This might get the my gaming group to try out a game like infinity.
Very interesting! I cant wait to september!!! i wan to play the campaing rigth now!!
I’ll probably be doing the pre-order this week, I want that special mini.
I am really pumped for all this new stuff.
Now that looks tasty. I hoped a little bit for more one-off missions but this will do. The Tohaa are not my cup of tea so far but yay for more excellent variety.
Excuse me is this the end of the queue for the mystery prize ?
Yes it is.
I want the prize and my love for Infinity is pure… give it to me!
I’m really excited about the campaign book release!! Always is better play games with a story that without it. Missions, experience points and possibilities multiplies the variables on a Infinity game and forces us to take complex decissions.
Cool stuff, shiny new toys
Got into Infinity due to the last Infinity weeks, this one just makes me want to spend even more!!! love the sound of what was sadi so far, time to watch some more videos!!
roll D6 for random comment:
1: Cool video.
2: Very good video.
3 Amazing video.
4. Astonishing video.
5. Superb video.
6. God mode on.
This might be a good intro for me to start playing infinity! Awesome!
I was a huge mordheim fan, I love the idea of an ongoing campaign and experience advances.
I love this game!!! some of the best figures ot there and the game keeps everyone involved the whole time. Can’t wait for new book.
Wow, perfect timing, considering I decided to start INFINITY 2 weeks ago and just now got my first set of Ariadna minis.
Though I think I’d much rather build a 450pts army list, and then allow 300 to be taken from that per mission. Or maybe make it even tougher, just 1 300pts list to work with throughout the campaign. Makes me think more of a tight knit group of specialists heavily relied upon by command to get stuff done. Plus, makes life more challenging.
I want I want I want….pls
I am beyond stoked for the book. As soon as I see if available on line in the U.S., it’s mine!
Man, I wish the international shipping rates on Corvus Belli webstore weren´´t so painful. I looked into ordering the book to get bonus figure, but I´d have to pay as much as I´m paying for the book as shipping… I´ll have to wait until Wayland or Maelstrom make the book available and hopefully go and make the figure promotion as well… If not, I´ll just have to live without it, it seems. A bit hard wargaming as a brazilian. At least I have people and a dedicated place to play now.
Looking forward to getting the physical copy of the book. Can’t wait to see what is in store for all of us.
awesome I can’t wait
They have hidden the mystery prize with TO camo!
Curse you Corvus Belli, recently spent about $200 for my Haqqislam and YuJing three days before I heard about this. Oh, well starting a new order now.
Campaing rules, what a great adition to an already great system
I went to pre-order the book until I saw that the shipping cost as much as the book! I really want that model but 35 euro is crazy to ship to Canada.
Ok guys you sold me on it I am going to pre-order the book.
My most favorite game has become my mostest favoritest game.
Gogo Marlene! Form of—a reasonable shipping fee!
I am so excited for this release. I’ve been playing recently with the TaOS missions and they really help make the game even more enjoyable. I am excited to see what Corvus Belli has thought up for us. Book already preordered.
ok infinity and beasts of war you have done it again!!!!!! ok since you guys sooo rock, infinity and beasts of war crew anytime you guys are in boston massachusetts alll the beer you can drink is on me for real.just give me a heads up and its a go.thanks guys appreciate all this. johnny
Sounds great…I hope this re-ignites interest in Infinity at the FLGS!
will definitely be buying this book
Two questions on the spec ops.
Will they be useable outside the campaign?
Since they come with different parts will we end up buying multiples to make different versions throughout the campaign?
After a alcohol induced delerium I believe the prize is Angel Giraldez painting your entire Infinity collection.
Sweeeeeeeeet.
My body is ready.
In regards to cubes and their significance increasing, hows that going to balance out with Haqqislam? who don’t like cubes and all. Will haqqislam players be SUPER EXTRA HARDCORE due to no comesback.
If this post wins, I’ll probably not win a game for months with my luck credit being way in the red.
I have been hovering on the edge of getting into infinity for a couple of weeks and have held off to see what the campaign and new faction bring, after seeing this campaign I am definitely starting infinity my biggest problem is picking a faction they are all superb looking figures. I was draw strongly to pan o and the range of options and sectorials in particular the knights. But now Ariadne is the favourite with the character each fig has sculpted into it,but I keep looking at ca and aleph decisions decisions and I don’t know anything about the new faction yet. Really looking forward to infinity week 2 and making my purchases at the end of it.
Thanks bow for these great clips
Our local gaming group is just getting into Infinity, the campaign in this book sounds like it will be a great way for us to begin!
Finally – Infinity Campaing! Hell yeach! I love the new aliens too. Yu Jing ftw!
Infinity is great as there is no Uberfaction, just pick the faction you like the look of and want to paint or the theme you want to pursue. This book is going to make it all the more enjoyable.
Awesome! can’t wait to play the campaign!
Not sure about campaign, but lack of missions was one of the main weaknesses of infinity, which had to be solved by players themselves so hopefully this will be solved now.
The worst thing they could have done is add a new faction. It will take me forever to buy all the great stuff that they have already, let alone more great stuff from a new faction.
Can’t wait for all the cool stories that will be created through playing the campaign book.
muwhaahaa -Tohaa Tohaa Tohaa!!!
CB keeps getting better and better. Can’t wait for the new campaign book and minis
I also love that BOW do these “weeks”
nice stuff.
Really looking forward to this book. Want Aleph sectorials ! 😀
Can hardly wait to get my hands on this book. The campaign/missions will be so much fun and greatly needed! I will start forcing my friend to paint his stuff up faster. 🙂
Really appreciate the information on the book content.
Looking forward to these themed weeks each week. Nice to see more info about a game I’ve been wanting to try out.
The amping book look awsome, and the experience table too. I can´t wait to have it in my hands XD
I can’t wait to see the Shasvastii Spec Ops model and to read the background text on the new book which I have never read… really, never… or did I?
If Bostria goes for the mystery prize I want it as well!
Selenio.
mystery prize? really? cool! count me in!
I’d really love to see a game on that table, make sure you guys get a video of one in for the Infinity week, or a couple.
Long… LONG awaited! I’m about to explode with anticipation!
This looks awesome! Can’t wait!
I was waiting for Infinity campaign ever since I started and I hope that this will be as good as it seems to be
A really solid product! I will definitely be picking one up.
New Infinity stuff is fantastic! Just wish I knew more people who play it!
Wanna win
After convincing my gaming group to get into Infinity I actually tried making my own campaign rules, but I’m sure their’s will be a hell of lot better than mine 😛
I’m just hoping the new troops for the Nomads will include stuff for a Tunguska sectoral army, been waiting for it for so long and would be awesome
Hope theres male and female spec ops variations, really I just want to be a Reverend Custodier with a bad ass cloak…
I’m very excited for the new book. I’m curious though, is 4 the minimum number of players needed to play a campaign? Do you need an even number? Is there any limit to the armies involved? My immediate circle of gaming buddies only includes two other Infinity players, both of whom play CA (though they have other armies too), so we may need to recruit some more newbies if we want to get a campaign started.
…wow. I’m very excited. Can’t wait to run a campaign and I truly hope it’s somewhat costomizable to suit your campaign…and the spec ops/xp thing…sweet!!
Hope it’ll be available soon in the web!
between this and 40k 6th ed im going to be out of pocket
Can’t wait.
hey folks from beasts of war, i´d be very happy to win some starterset from infinity….
so take me 😀
AWESOME !!!!!
This is gonna be way better than any game out in the market. All I want to know besides (when I’m getting my book) is; when is CB going to add vehicles to the game? They have troops that are created to defeat them but what abt the actual rules for vehicles?
Keep it up CB you guys are rocking the market.
Brother G
The Spec Ops mins are looking to be really exciting 🙂
The more I see and hear about Infinity the more interested in it I get. I think this week may finally push me over the edge!
I want this book now! 😉 Cant Wait to get my Copy.
Don’t know which is more awesome to me: your own character, or campaign with it’s own plot…very cool things are going to Ifinity world
Well this is getting ordered. Now then to convince the checkbook that I can pay for this and bills this month.
About time too! This will come out just at the right time. My gaming group should be just about finishing our slow grow league.
Can’t wait to see the new sectorial army for ALEPH!!! And also the missions!!
Really looking forward to seeing what the campaign book brings, slowly learning the intricacies of this game and enjoying it a great deal so hoping the campaign brings a few interesting twists.
If I do get the book I will most likely be using the auto resurrect option only because I won’t have enough models for replacements. Otherwise I would totally go hard core and let the dice roll as it will. This books sounds like a great soure of ideas even for other wargames.
Anything that adds to the fluff for Infinity is good.
can not even begin to express my excitement at what is to come
Nice cover, I hope inside will be even nicer!
I’m most interested in those Spec Ops minis with the customization options…I love me some custom characters =D
Looks great. Are you guys going to continue releasing campaign books with different stories or wait until there are new troops/factions to include as well?
Loving everything I have seen from Infinity and CB, I have to play this.
Gimme!
I wouldn’t mind any ‘mysterious prizes’… 🙂
Awesome sauce !
I have to admit I am not so thrilled about the spec ops, but all the more about the missions. I just hope they are usable outside the campaign without becoming pointless.
interesting, perma-death always adds drama to a campaign. Can way expect injury tables as well?
This is seriously something that Infinity has been missing, I can´t wait to get my hands on the book. This will definately boost Infinity in my gaming group.
Sounds awesome so far… would it be more motivation to get a CA player or army?
Oh yes…Corvus Belli guys…thank you for this awesome book.
The narrative campaign system sounds very nice. I definitely wat to try a campaign in ‘hard-core’ mode. Can’t wait to get my hands on the book.
I’m wondering though if investing in a spec ops won’t be a bit too risky compared to the tech-tree bonuses.
And how will games between victors and loosers play out? Won’t succesful armies be too overpowering against armies who were less lucky (or smart)?
i can´t wait to see specop rules!!
The book is already pre-ordered. Wake me up when september ends!
So excited about this book, I have been waiting to play the Greek Sectorial (SSSAS) for about a year now, and I think once it’s out it will be the only thing that I will play… Now hurry up and spoil them!!!
Looks very nice. I picked a good time to get into Infinity!
Tohaa FTW!!!!!!!!
This book is exactly what Infinity needs to give the best gane experience ever. I’m looking forward to have it in my hands!!!
SpecOps! Tohaa! Missions!
When will be this came true!!! I want it!!!
Wow, that campaign system sounds great.
That will spark some new interest for sure.
The Tech-tree part sounds cool
Will buy!
This is the final straw, going to start infinity gaming. Haven’t started yet cause my friends aren’t really into wargaming, their not getting a choice!
I´m off for a pre-order…
Campaign should really add a lot to the game. Especially for small play groups.
Finally more stuff to read and to play! Awesome
I’m eager to get one copy of this book !
The campaign system seems to be really original and dynamic and, imho, I think it will brings interesting missions challenges to have the opportunity to upgrade our teams with the victory points.
