I think we all have a soft spot in our hearts for the Nomad faction. Gav and Carlos are back again and have got stuck in, having a look at what it takes to design a Nomad miniature and what design choices come up with a faction like this.
Don't forget if you missed it last year her is the link to the Nomads video from our infinity Week 2012:

Nomads, my thirth faction. Whats not to love!
Yep, I think the Nomads might be my second faction.
Some really neat models in this faction.
I’m *this* close to getting a nomad team. Love me some zonds.
I love the armour designs on these models. Very tempted to jump in with Nomads.
Bouncing around either ALEPH or Nomads as my next team.
Looks interesting.
The more I see them, the more I want them …
Will be soon mine …
nomads look great
Carlos cracks me up; “No I’m not helping you with this one”. Happy to see whole new Alguciles concepts, hopefully there are a few more resculpts, they were the reason I haven’t got into Nomads – ugly basic troops.
Since the only Infinity miniature I have actually painted is my Prowler I think its safe to say that I love these guys, particularly their armour designs and the look of their Spitfire. Last year I had to slim down my Infinity collection but hopefully I will get the chance to make up for it with some new Hellcats this summer.
love the intruders one of my favourite minis
The Riot Grrls concept is brutal. The minis are average except the first one (in blister) and one of the combi rifle grrls, they are nice too.
Lifestyle!
Love the concepts
Ah nomads, my dirty space gypsies.
another great video, really fond of the new sniper rifle design.
Very nice models
Looking forward to getting a Corregidor army started…! 🙂
love the riot grrrls flavor
Hi this was my third army and i like very much the reesculp of intruders,i can`t wait for see the gecko and iguana XD.
another faction that was almost my first
Who doesnt love to stick it to the man with some rebels
Nomads are a very good faction, and the covers shown are great. Let´s see what´s next.
Pretty nice, especially the riot grrls.
The Nomads are such a brilliantly diverse bunch. A real carnival of perfect misfits and covert specialists that look very distinctive and cool!
Love the Infinity line!
I have to agree with Surprize, it’s great to see the concept for the new Alguciles because they are the only ‘weak’ point of the Nomads starter IMHO. Also is it my imagination or does the video seem cut off at the end?
I wonder how many people have memorized “The toast of Corrigador”.
Nomads have my favorite backstory.once I finish my aleph, nomads or tohaa are probably next
CB really do want all my money, don’t they?! Nomads do look awesome!
Nomads are the best faction Infinity has, background wise, there is nothing not to love on their design, their story and the innovative way to place so much diversity together.
Infinity is so cool, so much to choose from.
These indepth looks are great.
Love the video, but all I ask for is more Nomads! Cheers and thanks.
Infinity and give aways? Count me in!
Nice looking… Weaponry…
Love this week!! Thanks!
Brett
Love the Nomads, match my devious style of play
HAD to buy in once I saw that Corregidor Starter! Awesome!
Yes finally the nomads
Can’t wait to see new TAGs and Intruder sniper.
I love the Nomad theme. One of my favourite factions.
i think nomads are my favorites
I hate that I want all of it lol.
These Nomads are awesome!
Can’t decided between these and pan oceania as my second faction
Nomads are cool. Really like how heavy they are with hackers.
CB just had to redesign the Intruders to take away my last excuse to not start a Nomad army. I need more money;)
I love Nomads, it gets really hard to choose next army. Also when I see Nomads a song plays in my head – Combichrist – Intruder Alert.
yay infinity, yay prizes
Riot Girls look so much better in concept, models just don;t work for me though
cool
Awesome artwork
I actually didn’t like the riot girls when I saw them on the infinity website. Think I might have changed my mind
Hopefully PanO is next…finally..
Nomads are my regular opponents, nasty but nice models nevertheless.
Really enjoying the insights into the Infinity design process in theses videos. Always great to see how ideas for the miniatures develop.
Iguana and Gecko at last!
Some of the best fluff in the game.
Love the fluff.
The new Starter is simply brilliant
crazy cool looking miniatures
i play Nomads. best faction ever.
Hmmm… still not decided – stop making it hard!
Nomads are my first faction. If this is the artwork that didn’t make it I can’t imagine the artwork that did, just awesome.
Still not chosen my faction
I fell in love with the new Corregidor boxset. Definitely want to assemble a themed force one day…
Definitely some cool models in this faction.
Awesome troops specially corregidor new design! I was not able to let it pass and starter my fourth faction! I Hope Bostria comment of a new intruder formales sniper becames true by the end of the year…
Cool stuff!!
I still can’t work out what Justin is saying at the start before he clicks his fingers,
“I know I haven’t shaved at the minute but here is the magic!” ?!!
Nomades know THE TRUTH
don’t believe in Aleph
the cooooolest faction of infinity
and best reason to choos nomades…… :
we have naughtiest, sexiest and preatiest girls of the galaxie
I always liked the cool amount of tech that they have.
Nomads have some of the most distinctive and cool designs 🙂
Every faction video so far this week had me thinking wow, i’d like to play these guys!
The heavy armor designs for Nomads is pretty nice. Also, is it just me, or do the Nomands seem to have a higher ratio of female units?
Ah I lost the antennae to my Moran Maasai Hunter immediately after opening it! I’m glad they are going to start making them bigger on newer models.
There is no other faction that I love more then the Nomads!
Yay revolution against the Aleph!
They looks so good. Infinity is amazing.
Thanks again for these great videos!
I love how they made each of the Nomad factions very different aesthetically. The personality of each really comes out in the sculpts like the brutal Intruders to the whackey Riot Girls.
Sweet stuff here.
I Love the Riot grrls they are hilarious fun on the table, and they are such amazing looking models. Also they still have the awesome old nomad guns!
ENTRY!
My favourite army but my least painted. New versions of some figures are out and my old versions are still unpainted…. oh the humanity.
I’m entering in the hopes of winning and finally finding out what all the hubbub is.
I really like the new Intruder, i liked the old one as well but the new one looks just great
Nomads. Definitely my [n+1]th faction!
Wow riot girls really split people into two groups huh?
Some models I love, some don´t work at all for me. The riotgirl looks much better in the concept then in actual model unfortunately
Gav, seem to have fallen in love with the heart shape on the back armour
Nomads, so tempting!
I want that Haqqislam starter!!
Nomads are seriously cool looking minis.
Want it
….I JUST LOVE THE NEW CORREGIDOR STARTER!!!!!
Nomads are pretty great. I started with the Bakunin Sectorial, and they’re really a great fun to play.
i like the armour of the intruder dosier reminds me abit of deathstroke
Hopefully one day my painting skills will be good enough to do these figures justice.
My first faction – hit people with weaponised space weirdness. Sure, PanO has Vatican heavy infantry, we have radical Christians nun that hammer nails into their spines and keep their men on – literal – tight leashes. Yu Jing has fanatical government milita – we have furry-berserker-commando-assault-teams. Ah, Uberfalkommado, you horrify everyone.
Filthy Nomads… Ahem!
😛
Another great run down of an interesting Infinity Faction! Added this to my bookmarks with all the rest. 🙂
It’s cool to have the designer’s point of view!
I love the new Corrigidor models but I also love the consistency it has with the older models. If I put my beautifully painted older Hell Cat models next to the new ones the theme is obvious. Again, well done.
OK! The new Alguciles are awesome, especially the upper right concept art on the girl. Please make that miniature happen.
And thanks for telling us how to pronounce names Carlos. You’re a good sport!
too many awesome minis….must resist
’bout time we heard something on the iguana and gecko.
Interesting…
Need the book for Iguana and Gecko concepts 🙂
I want them all! It’s just not fair!
there is some really nice fluff with these minis
I love the look of this faction so much, I play them.
My son plays nomads – so he’s pretty stoked.
Am loving Infinty week lads. Keep up the good work
Infinity is the best. Love this game.
Iguana this year, very nice!
Loving PanO and the military order, Nomads are freaking scary. Hackers, hackers everywhere.
The backstory behind this faction is great and the minis are becomibg better with each release.
There was a reason for the head antenna in the old Nomad model, because let’s face it, it’s helmed was a bowling ball with eyes and something was needed to break the shape. The new design is excellent.
Nomads…look great, hate playing against them XD
Not a big nomad player but damn these look cool
Nomads are great though I’d like to see some more Tunguska stuff.
Deadpool is that you?
Can’t decide between Nomads and Yu Jing!
Love Riot girls!
game has been getting better and better looking!
Love the mini’s excelent stuff, but they are all super, i cant choose
They look awesome
My best friend plays Nomads! The only guy I know who can come close to giving me a really tight game.
Nomads are my main faction.
I like the Nomad designs. Combined army with all the aliens are still my fav so far though.
I played as Nomads once. My nomad tactics were so bad that I failed miserable. *never again*
I can’t wait to see the iguana and the gecko. It’ll be interesting to see what a truly ‘light’ tag looks like.
Love the look of the intruder, has a dead pool kind of feel to it. Makes it really awesome.
If this didn’t get into the art book cant wait to see what did !!!
Man I wish I had the time and money to get into Nomads
The new smaller guns make the difference but was hoping for something more squarish. Even though Nomads are now the best looking faction to play.
Again, very nice arts!
Nomads are truelly awesone. came very close to becoming my 1st faction.
Nice models too!
Nomads are the faction that made me hesitate with aleph…. such beautiful models !
still not sure who to take, but i am liking me some nomads as a starter
I have played against them like 100 times, hate the Intruder
Have to say the Nomads are my least favorite of the factions still like them though.
Always thought the riot girls were a little weird. Well the armour design more so than anything else. Their background is pretty dam gucci.
Corregidor seems to have really made out with the Wildcats as their cheerleaders.
Nomads all the way, their Zondcat is one of my fave all time mini’s
Nomads have great background, and looking forward to the Tunguska models
Nomads are a popular army. Some nice figures that also have great skills on the wargames table..
Ooooh geckos
Nomads all the way, love them.
nomads are my favourite faction, great work guys
Hey. Tried to get the BoW Home Page RSS again after Google Reader went the way of the Dodo.
But your homepage RSS seems broken (for me at least). Any ideas?
Nomads are always shooting at me…
So, is Corregidor like a space syndicate where Bakunin is space free market?
Art looks very cool
Awesome models. Wish they’d include the weapon loadouts as in the pictures 🙂
Probably going to be my first faction for this.
You want more Riot Grrrls….. 😉

another great looking video, still loving the crazy koalas
Well, at least the red bits doesn’t make them run faster…
man i love me some riot grrls, they are my breead and butter, i just want them as a lt option and ill call it a day!!
nice vid
Woohoo, my faction at last.
The new sculpts and weapons redesigns have really sold me on Nomads. I especially love the strong red and black concept art of Corregidor, and their new starter box has some of the best looking models in the game.
I love the Nomads.
Those Riot Grrls are really badass! I love it how the interviewer keeps insisting on modeling the hole in the back armour into a heart shape 😛
I love the anime, hard scifi details of these one.
Would love to get a sketch in my book ;0)
Those hooded cloaks look realy sweet!
Nice to hear some of the design ideas going on with these.
Love the Corrigedor sectoral
I really like the terrain :s and the miniatures look way different from 40k
I still would like to see a digital publication of some of the “didn’t make it” artwork, or perhaps a downloadable hi res shots of the stuff that went up in the videos… I would totally pour all over those details…
My favorite!
They are all cool T.T
too much shiny not enough time or money
cool
Another interesting video! These are making me want everything!
Nomads have got to be my favorite faction. They honestly just look cool, and their lore is pretty interesting as well.
The nomads are definitely my favourite faction I love the pose for the zero hacker and find painting them a welcome distraction from all the dirt and grit of wh40k miniatures
Damn I am loving these videos!!!
Riot girls are brutal.
..BY THE WAY!!!…..ITS THERE ANY ART WORK OR IDEAS FOR THE “IGUANA SQUADRON” T.A.GS?¡?¡?¡?…..I LOVE THE IDEA OF HVY ARMORED PILOTS JUMPING OUT OF THEIR DOWNED TAGS, SHOOTING THEIR HMG WITHOUT LOOSING A BEAT!!!!….
Hooray for Corregidor!
Nomads have some sexy models.
great to see the minois design
Glad to see Alguacil getting an upgrade
Bring on the female Intruder miniature please 🙂
The Riot Grrl looks so sweet and innocent nothigng like a anarchist feminists outfitted with cybernetics, power armor and loads of weapons!:D
Yeah I think I’ll get these guys I’m sold
Ah the Nomads, can’t help but like these fellows =)
Slick looking miniatures
Riottttt! 😀
Fantastic look into the design decisions.
Nomads are a love-hate for me. I totally hate bakunin (although i love some of the new models like prowler) but i love corregidor, especially since the new starter and reesculpts
.
the nomads have some really awesome sculpts.
Nomads, my second favourite faction.
I like the faction fluff of the nomads but somehow they have never appealed to me despite really gorgeous minis.
I love how he pronounces bad-ass 🙂
I never played against Nomads
Nomads were my first Infinity love. Well one of them….
Nomads is still my number 1 fav faction. Don’t know how I feel about the new guns design though.
Riot Grrls concept art is absolutely awesome.
I think Nomads might just be my next army!
Nomads, Bakunin will be my third army…

Raaaaaaah Nomads!
nomads sounds intereresting i like the look of them might try them next.
Havent watched this one yet, will have to rectify.
Riot Girls!
Truly dig some of the Nomad designs.
Nomads are 3rd best designed faction (after YuJing and Aleph). Good work.
Not sure why I love the Riot Grrls the most as far as this line goes. But the idea of giving a bunch of punk chicks heavy armor and big guns just seems right.
Nomads are so cool, I might start them as a second army. The Sin Eater is just too badass,
Riot Grrls are heaps weird why you no have torso armour. Your not cyborgs like the Asuras. -_-
Nomad’s FTW
Infinity, one of the best table top games ever invented. I’m a big GW gamer, hell I’ve been one since the Rogue days and I have seen nothing like this, from game system, figures, customer service, etc.
This company is just incredible, they put new figures monthly (Nobody does that) yes they have missed a couple of months but they stay strong.
Best of Luck CB
Brother G
Corregidor look great.
The new looks are nice. I enjoyed some of the old as well but this will be a very nice and should bring in new players I hope.
Nomads are one of my favorites just for the models but their rules are also cool
I think it’s funny how neither of them mentioned the Riot Grrl’s LOOK AT MY DIRTY BITS design! A bit more glaring than a red camo unit! 😉
Ah, just got my Riot Grrls, Love ’em…. Pity, that I’ll have to eventually replace some of myolder stock…. but the replacements appear to be worth it,,,,,,
the Riot Grrls concept is brilliant, makes me love the miniatures even more
This might be my second faction!
I can’t wait to see how Iguana and Gecko look.
Looking forward to picking up the Corregidor Starter Box!
Really impressive stuff.
So looking forward to the Artbook – and lots of fantastic new miniatures 🙂
Nomadz.. they are so…
Love the sci-fi roller derby style designs for the riot grrls.
Gav, your interview skills are sorely lacking. Those awkward transitions need to be polished. Keep working at it!
exotic but realistic looking weapons, always stand on these minis
Ah yes, the Intruders… best snipers in the Sphere.
I like the nomads, they are triksy.
I really like the concept art, it seems like they went over fewer models for this line compared to others. I would have liked to seen more. I really like the fluff behind this group.

No more fiddly antennae?! That makes me happy and sad at the same time.
