Comment below!
































Definately going to split this box with my Yu Jing playing buddy. Love the Haqqislam minis, eventhough I had never considered them previously.
Yeah I don’t even own Haq but I want this and the gen con ones
I got into this game with Operation Icestorm, largely because of the coverage on BoW. It blew my mind and since then I have been taken on a Hobby journey like no other. The miniature painting, terrain building and obviously the game itself is, what I believe, the best possible war-games experience out there.
And now you release this! Corvus Belli you are smashing it!!!
Even the paper terrain in this set is amazing.
I want this box. The minis are awesome.
Does Red Veil replace Ice Storm, or will they both be good starters?
I’ve not been able to watch the video above with sound yet sadly, but I’ve not seen it written anywhere that Red Veil is going to replace Ice Storm; most likely, it is merely an alternative.
Ice Storm is still an excellent boxed set tbh. If someone were unsure of which one to get with no preference of starting faction, my gut reaction would be to say that Red Veil has most likely benefited from CB’s increased experience in model design since Ice Storm’s release and then leave the decision up to that person.
The only negative I can think of wrt Ice Storm, is that I had real trouble lining up the arms with the gun hands on the male Alguacils (and to a slightly lesser extent, the Grenzer) and I know I’m not the only one.
I will say the new scenery looks really good as well (I’ll probably buy an additional pack for my little girl, who is just over 3 and a half, as she likes all the Infinity scenery I’ve collected), and again am very happy to see CB take another step forward with regards to its design.
This set does not replace Icestorm in that Icestorm will still be available to buy, there’s even an advert for Operation Icestorm in the back on the Red Veil booklet.
As for which one to get it depends on which factions you would like to play, PanO & Nomads or Haqqislam & Yu-Jing
And at the moment the preorder promo figure is also very tempting 🙂
they may choose to phase out Ice Storm at some point. don’t worry though, it will just make room for more awesomeness.
Ice storm is/was such an awesome box, but I never got it as swore not to get into another system. I’ve cracked slightly since then and bought a Bakunin starter box…let’s see how long I can last with all these new goodies coming out!
This set looks awesome!
I can’t resist Infinity any longer, will be getting Red Veil as my starting point!
…how have you resisted this long?
(1) not enough money
(2) too much stuff to play already
(3) no local shops
(4) a significant other that thinks this obsession with metal bits is crazy
etc.
I’ve avoided it because none of the factions clicked with me design wise. There have been individual ones I like such as Rao (who looks scarily like me but with a smaller nose), the Muyibs, and the Uhlans for example, but none of the factions had enough to make me take the plunge.
That all changes with the new Yu Jing starter set. The zhangshis, the hsien, the tiger soldiers, there’s nothing about the box I don’t love. I’m just going to have to pick up a copy.
I’m liking the evolution of the carboard terrain.
You don’t see this with many other games.
Well this got me salivating as a Haqq player. Now all I have to do is find the funds and someone to split the deal with. Damn you CB 😛
Got into the Game with a fried a bit before Operation Icestorm. Since then i bought all the big boxes … and this one i’ll get too. My friend asked if we could split the Box (he plays Haqqislam) but i had to tell him: “No! They are all mine. MINE!!!!”
Well it seems not to far in the future only Aleph and Tohaa will be missing from my collection *sigh*
I struggle to see Tohaa making it into one of these 2 player boxed sets, most because of their unique rules (eg: Triad fireteam) not being great for an introductory product.
I expect when standard Aleph get an updated redesign, you’ll see them paired with standard Ariadna (who probably need an updated redesign as well).
Hehe i think the same … i could imagine Tohaa maybe as a single-Faction Box like USAriadna or the Onyxs Contact Force.
But my wallet will be happy if both Aleph and Tohaa wait a lot longer till they get any kind of those boxes 😉
I really just can’t resist those boxed Sets, be they Startersets like Icestorm or Red Veil, or the single Faction-Ones. They just call out to the collector in me … curse him ^^
I learned about BoW from the CB-forum and the Flamestrike-Campaign. Cool stuff. And a very nice new box. Shining new minis. 🙂
Interesting to hear about someone coming the other way when most people hear about BoW before the games (other than Games Workshop that is).
May come from being german, so i usally read german tabletop news sites. Icestorm sparked the interest for Infinity in our club again and so did i came to it. And with a new game system comes a new forum and all the supporting sites: news, wiki, and in this case BoW 🙂
This is really awesome, and I haven’t even gone through my O:IS minis yet!
Just in time for a late birthday gift to me
This looks awesome. CB just keep on giving!
Just started with icestrom. The miniature are so cool, I decided to paint again with very high standard. So nice. Never felt this before. The fire of passion burns again .thank you CB.
Awesome box i like the new terrain.
The Yuan Yuan is just great!
Man. Infinity Kicks Butt. This new starter set looks so epic. Auto Prepurchase!
Really breathtaking miniatures. Just a small group of us starting to try and build up infinity and ITS here in Korea. This box would definitely help us get things moving along faster!
i’m so excited I just can’t contain it. dance mode do do do do do do do do can’t touch this.
aleph vs combined for the next one please 🙂
Will the Scenery pack be available separately?
I would think so both the Icestorm and the USAridna scenery packs are sold seperately.
And so it begins. ….
We need new Scots.. pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease
Love the look of the new models, and that you can get Miyamoto Mushashi as a preorder
I am sold 🙂
Now this is how you do a 2 player starter bundle ,the yuan yuan looks sick!!
Excellent set for an excellent game.
Awesome show.
Carlos es ever ; brings the magic.
Plain awesome, can’t wait till it ships.
Incredible work, awesome miniatures and tyhe best game of the market, what anything else can we ask for whit this nice products? 😉
It’s missing PanO the best faction!! 😉
Just joking this box is perfect.
Gonna get the Gencon pack ASAP
Ok, those models look great! I might have to pre-order.
The ninja is incredible.
What gorgeous minis! Now I’m looking for some love for my shasvastii, too 🙂
Good work BoW, I get interested in Infinity models mainly for your coverage.
I have some mixed feelings on some chinese resculpts but I definitely love that ninja
Come on, FLGS! Where’s the pre-order page?!
That scenery (along with everything else!) is fantastic.
Good miniature handling skills there, Warren – always brings a touch of terror and excitement to these videos!
Awesome minis. I love the dynamism of the Yu-Jing starter even if the haven is a little disappointing.
Awesome looking minis and terrain, I may have to start a Haqqislam army from this box.
I’m confused as to why it’s not Red Veil that’s going to be the thing you can win. Don’t get me wrong I think that Icestorm is great and the chance to win the USARF and Onyx contact force is great. I’m just a little confused is all.
That looks great. I never thought I would have 6 groups for a game and still want more. Great job on the set.
This box set looks amazing, really tempted to grab it. Definitely what I need to kick start my Yu Jing I got at the bootcamp.
It is a nice little game … never mind that I have now around 200 minis for it …
It really is a good game, just a shame I haven’t really had much of a chance to play it. Unfortunately Inifinity only has a select few playing at my local club
Amazing models and a brilliant overall. Such a shame that i won’t be able to get that Unknown Ranger model as it is a wonderful pose. Now I have to find someone to play Infinity against as it is the game which most appeals to me at the moment.
These dudes make it so hard to just pick a faction and just stick with it.
i gave up on that sticking with a faction a looong time ago … i’m weak 😉
I am completely and utterly in love with this new box set, guaranteed 3rd year in a row Im buying the new box set on pre-order.
Wow the terrain looks amayzing for sure i will get this stuff in to my collection
Oh dear. Having just bought some Morats I was hoping that I wouldn’t like this box. Dare I ask for it as a wedding present?
Nice looking miniatures as always.
Amazing, can not wait!
Love the models time to save up some money.
Why, just why!
I was about to buy the Operation Icestorm Pack, but know this awesome Pack comes up.
Now i have only 2 Options:
Wait till August, or get some money to buy both…
Great Video, I am thrilled for the next!
Go for Icestorm now the you know the rules by the time this come out
Are there really two options? 😉
Amazing set! I want it!
Corvus Belli summers releases are always great.
Damn you corvus belli I was all set to get the usariadna pack… now you release this with haqqislam… what am I supposed to do?
I didn´t know yet i would start a Haqqislam army.
Good to see the reworked version 3 starters are finally here.
Such a bittersweet feeling.
AWESOME!!! Must Have Now!!
Always need new Ninjas…they keep disappearing on me.
The new models look spectacular – definitely getting this one.
Okay lads…here is the plan! Toast and sweetcorn…Toast and sweetcorn for the next few months. We can do this! We will have this!
Already ordered the special deal. Can’t wait to start the Yu Jing army.
Loved Ice Storm, will definitly get this one!!!
My son already plays both factions but wants the new minis and the special edition minis as well.
I play neither of these factions, yet, but want all three of the special edition minis.
I guess we will be pre-ordering two boxsets for my household.
Damn you Corvus Belli! This box is AWESOME!
This is going to be hard to resist to, i have so many games…!
Damn you Corvus B. You just had to put Yu Jing in the box. Sorry bank account.
dan i thought i had my faction pcked, but these two new startersets make me doub again.
I think is a amazing box but the haqquislam starter are much worse than the Yu Jing. The selecction of trops are worse and the ghulam of before don t need resculp.
I make haquislamm and the starter don t proveed me with nothing exciting but the Exclusive miniature finally going to make me buy it.
Fantastic box! Fantastic miniatures. I already have yu jing but maybe I should start Haqqislam too?
This looks fantastic, awesome minis as usual from CB. I’m going to have to get my pre-order in for this 🙂
Gah I was saving for Onyx!!!
It’s amazing how Corvus Belli keeps upping the stakes every year. This is so much win. The terrain is awesome. Very cyberpunk. Love it!
Off to a great start for the week!
The Al Faseed sounds like a real beast, mine layer, smoke grenades, and a hmg is a lot of control and firepower. Unfortunately he’s probably going to be appropriately coated ><
What an amazing box, getting better and better everytime I peak into the world of Infinity!
The Ninja looks just stunning!
will poor is failing, man this looks great, sooo tempting. And the minis look amazing
Awsome models,
I must have!!!!
Exelent new box! I just curious, why they give Yuan model with it – Haqqislam generic list not use this pirats. May be it would be changed? or Haqqislam would recive another sectorial soon?
I love the new scenary pack! This one is much better and useful of previous
Well, I wasn’t going to buy into a new army until the JSA got a raft of resculpts.
And then CB stick a limited ninja in this box. And I, being rather compulsive about these things, simply must have it. *sigh*
CB keeps releasing boxes of things I want! Fortunately in this case I can split the box with a buddy of mine. New Haqq stuff is amazing.
I like the terrain in this box.
Ninja with a tactical bow? I’m sold.
I really like the scenery – the Lo Pan building is the best!
The game is great and the minis always look great. One of these days I am going to get more time to paint and get those darn Panoceania finished up.
Well I know where all my fun money for the month will go.
All I can do is aplaude CB, really well done and makes perfect sence, maybe the next one can be Aleph vs CA or Tohaa (maybe not as much). Also would love to see a company make a 4X4 mouse pad and or other type of the red veil map, its sweet!
Well, this will be another hard week on my willpower. Once again wonderful minis from CB.
I’m the only one in my Local group that will be at GENCON, so I suspect I will be making a lot of purchases for everyone.
Lovely stuff… A usual…. If I win… Thats a good excuse to start a new game… Fate maybe…
Love these weeks , great job guys.
Amazing! Always top notch.
Painting up icestorm for a friend right now and this is seriously making me want to buy in!
Wow….cant wait for the zhayedan…..and all the other minis from the box=)
Want!……no………need!
I like the tactical bow. 🙂
Looks totally sweet, plus a chance to win the box set yes please!
Damn I love the infinity minis…haven’t tried the game itself yet
The best sci-fi models in the industry? Amazing stuff
It’s not just the Spanish that feel they miss out on GenCon specials… count most of the rest of the world outside the US!
Checking my Bank account and monthly budget now…
Another well done set from Corvus Belli! I can’t wait to get my hands on it.
Looking good, I don’t even play these factions but I’m still excited by the new designs.
Awsome box again with lovely miniatures. Keep up this kind of products CB.
The Ninja with tactical bow does look really nice, but I love the new Haqqislam mini’s. I’ve been playing Haqq since I got into Infinity and the models never disappoint.
A pre-order should be on its way. I’m splitting this box with a Yu Jing playing friend.
Great to see some Haq and Yu Jing models!
Corvus Belli are did a great job with Operation Ice Storm and now Red Veil offers two more awesome factions, I am biased as I much prefer Haqqislam and Yu Jing to Pano and Nomads! The update to the miniatures is very welcome too.
The Ninja with the tactical bow is so cool! 😀
Looks like I’m starting Yu Jing.
Such amazing sculpts. I came so close to getting ice storm at adepticon! Such a fool, I’m not missing out on this one. If I can’t find some one to play, I’ll just give them the army I’m not using. I never seen a starter box where every mini has had this level of effort. No matter what I’m in!!!
Corvus Belli just continues to impress. I’m certainly getting this set to expand my Haqq. And when you stack the Yu Jing starter with the awesome new ISS starter, it looks like I have no choice but to jump in on that faction as well.
Really like the new card stock scenery and the minis. Recently started Haqq this year so thats all good. Preordered and all ready looking forward to getting my hands on them!
These boxes are getting nicer every time, it is hard to resist.
Wow! I need that ninja model.
Already said it over on youtube, but very nice show guys! Really good atmosphere in the studio.
Been on the fence and been eying the icestorm box but these factions really sold me! Just lovely. And the box content seems really well thought out.
Infinity has had some really nice boxed sets. Really impressed with them so far.
great looking minis
I started Yu Jing because of the terracota and the ninjas… I am really going to enjoy painting the new ones! 🙂
mmm ninja! ..and the tiger is damn good too! 🙂
I wish I had a bigger base of players here… but hey, still gonna buy 😀
Woah.. This looks awesome.
Would probably split it with my friend if I hadn’t already bought Op. Icestorm. A future purchase maybe.
I love that terrain. Will it be available on general release?
Looking forward to getting this.
Just seen the gen con bundle on the infinity site.
The terrain looks great and really easy to put together
I am consistently blown away by the artwork for this game.
I am SO excited for this box! Icestorm was great, but this looks even better! And Haqqislam, too, yay! 😀
Very cool unboxing video, I’m totally psyched!
I thought I’d buy this to split with a friend as I plap Yu Jing but this just convinced me at ill keep it all to myself and start a new faction
Great job on another breathtaking starter box.
Those miniatures look the balls
Damn unknown ranger….
So much awesome!! Haqislam for the win. Love your infinity weeks BOW.
I love this box. The terrain gets better and better. I especially like the painting tutorial in it.
The only thing I don’t like is that it doesn’t divide evenly. The Haqqislam get the big HMG troop and the extra miniature can be used by them as well. It would have been better if the extra pre-order miniature was better for Yu Jing.
This Red Veil Starter is so compelling I might just order it in spite of not even collecting the factions involved… ^^
Haqqislam looking so closely tied to the modern scenario – visually and name wise – always had me struggeling with them. I love their background and would have liked anything further away oriented – be it future or history (1001 nights for instance).
Enter: his group. Essentially being a Starter for the Cliphate subfaction. And that is really calling for me.
Oh Corvus – you temptress! That Ninja must be mine…
I’m certainly getting interested in N3 again. I think Red Veil may succeed in drawing me in, especially if i win one of these two prizes.
This box… I guess its good I managed to avoid buying new infinity miniatures the month before(from the previous release)…
…..Holy God Of Bundles!!!!!!!!….. (OoO)
Great looking starter set.
Beautiful models and the scenery is awesome. Very exciting release.
I hadn’t paid much attention to Infinity before now, but after this unboxing, I might be paying it more. I’m impressed to see a “one box has everything” presentation — full playmat, foldable terrain, dice and tokens — and really pleasantly surprised that the minis here are metal where so many other miniatures skirmish games have switched to plastics.
Hmm. To strip my existing Haqq & yu Jing or not….
Looking forward to adding to my Haqqislam collection.
Excellent, been eyeing Yu Jing for a bit now…
L o v e l y
I do like the minis but worried about getting into another game, especially one which can get quite complex
Love the new sculps
Interesting look.could almost use some for real world moderns.
hmm very nice, loved icestorm and this one looks even better
The new starter terrain looks pretty nice – I like it better than Icestorm’s.
The terrain is gorgeous, I’m definetly getting it in the future when they release it.
Also, interesting what they did with they Unknown Ranger, but it’s sad to find he isn’t Chuck Norris T_T
Totally amazing stuffs again from Infinity. When I started it was Yu Jing or Nomads. I went with Nomads cause of Icestorm, guess I am now starting Yu Jing 😀
This is an awesome set. Nice to see Corvus Belli coming out with another starter set. Those are a good idea. Gets people into the game, and the release of exclusive minis!
Got to find a local Yu Jing player to split this with. Or start a new faction…
can’t resist any longer … must have …
Totally love the new scenics and the Ninja model.
Looks awesome, can’t wait to get my hands on it.
Really loving the new minus.
Long time Infinity lover, long time not playing because real life xD but a friend of mine bought the N3 Human Sphere book, and I was thrilled to play again. And now, they release an amazing 2 player box with my favourite faction Yujing… Cannot wait to have it in my claws 😀 😀 😀
I wonder why Carlos associated the Zúyong with the Lt. Was that a mistake, are there fixed Lts in the beginner missions, new loadouts or what?
Also, is this one bulkier than the one previously released? There are certainly some new design details at the least.
the minis are amazing, never played infinity before but will definately get this boxed set
great unboxing the new minis are amazing.. look forward to the rest of the week!!!
Looking at these beautifully painted and sculpted minis always makes me drool.
I love that ninja.. its just an absolutely fantastic model
But why are you doing this to me?
Still haven’t paint US Ariadna and lot more stuff from other games and companies.
And this looks sweet.
I soo miss times when played only one system and could proudly say that I have my whole collection painted.
Now there’s just the struggle of convincing the wife to not take the Yu Jing away from me.
Looks awesome!
To be honest, the only thing that I would like from Red Veil is the pre-order mini and the GenCon Unknown Ranger. Already got three armies here and I don’t think I’ll start a Haqqislam nor Yu Jing any time soon.
Go Ariadna!
Ranger pre-ordered can’t wait to order(pre-order no way in hell i’m misssing out on the you yan to bad it is not the fat yun yan all infinity fans are waiting on) the Red Veil set from my local store. 😛
PS : lol on the Al Fasid porta-potty stelth drop, we need that one as an official rule, than we’ll see more tags and s5 infantry on the tables :P.
I like this terrain. Glad to see that they’re improving upon the other type rather than just reskinning it again.
I agree with Warren, female ghulam is probably the best miniature of the box, it’s high artistic quality is obvious and no matter who paint that mini it will always look great, in the opposite you have the ninja, in my opinion, only for veteran painters.
I want it…..now!
I’ve been resisting Infinity since I saw it. Now I have no choice.
This box contains my 2 favorite factions and has some basic terrain to go with.
Well done Corvus Belli, well done.
This set is even better done that Operation Ice Storm.
Corvus Belli must have some of the best artwork in this industry and their sculpts on these minis are just insanely good. These box sets are really well put together and I can’t believe how they seem to have just taken this set to another level, well done guys, well done!!
If this is half as good as operation icestorm it’s going to be fantastic.
My wallet is looking light… gonna have to figure out how to buy this set… back to the corner I go. Lmao jk.
Great video, looking forward to the rest of the week!
I love the infinity miniatures but never had the money to buy them. It’s sad because a guy in my group wants to start playing infinity.
Just ordered the whole bundle. Now I just have to wait and watch.
Superb staff I think I need to discus my budget with my wife 😛
While I’m not interested in these two factions, the minis are just absolutely top-notch quality!!
It’s the buildings and the play mat that really have me tempted. 0_o
*grumblegrumblegrumble* there’s too much artifacting and distortion on the promo video in the beginning.
Amazing starter with amazing quality. 5 out of 7 😉
I love all the new models!
That ninja model is really cool.
Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie.
Loving the new cardboard terrains, especially the walkways.
Just stunning, awesome sculpts as usual and the new card terrain is another step up from ice storm. Big Al Fasid Reg. makes it a total no brainer purchase though, what a beast!
it’s always great when the company releases models for two factions you’re interested in, in a 2 player box set. Because now it’s just the big bad 1 player starter box.
This is such a cool starter! I love the new models…
I remember when the first images of the Al Fasid were leaked, and us USAriadna players got our hopes up that it was our Blackjack. I suppose Captain Ariadna is a suitable offering, so we’ll let you off for now 😉
In all seriousness though, this box set looks amazing, and I’m tempted to have all the miniatures for display purposes, even if I’d only be wanting the ninja for gaming (being a JSA player and all).
Am I the only one who like the more muted tone of the Customeeple more that the Angle ones ?
Seem almost wrong to say it but they hit the mark better for me
Red! Fantastic. Hoping the next box set is violet. 🙂
OMG! That box set is awesome! The last one was good, but dam you for torturing my wallet lol. And the new musashi is so nice. Oh well, and with the £ doing so well and all 😉 how could you Corvus Belli, lol. Have pity 😉
I love how balanced this set seems to be between male and female models
Icestorm was awesome.
This looks even better.
Haqqislam already have some cool miniatures that have been calling to me, but I never made the leap into a new faction. (Already have Nomads, Pano and Ariadna).
Yu Jing and the Japanese sectorial have also caught my eye in the past, but the Ninja in this box is beyond beautiful. I would love to see my Hardcase and the ninja in a shoot out with their bows (Hardcase may need to avoid close combat though is he wants to see the mission out.)
With a range like this I may be able to make the upcoming role-play game even more cinematic and varied, rather than leaving things totally to the imagination or using markers and cut outs.
Looking forward to this week of content.
Greetings,
This set shows why Corvus Belli makes the most aesthetically pleasing metal minis out there. full of poise and action. Every miniature tells a story that isn’t just ‘KILL THE M@!#%@%@$#%@%#%#@%$%!@&%&*$#@$!%!^#S!!!!’, or them all standing around like chocolate teapots.
This set shows why Corvus Belli makes the best value starter set for 28mm scale games. Terrain that looks beautiful and has lots of in universe stories and yet could be used for other games if needed.
Definitely will be getting this for the local club I have been helping set up. Icestorm was good, Red Veil, I think will surpass it. I mean, hackers in the box… One thing really missing in Icestorm.
Regards,
Khib Yusa
That looks like a cracking starter set.
Welp, gotta start 2 new factions. Yay!
This set is getting got. Love the Yu Jing and i play them. The haqq will be useful for a infinity RPG story i have planned.
Was already leaning towards starting to play Infinity (versus starting WMH) and this sort of product just helps solidify that choice. This game is a much better fit for me.
Those new Haqqislam models are just perfect. That Kwarijh in particular.
Knights of Dice have a prefect China tower MDF kit that would go perfectly with this.
Great looking stuff… Just take my money!
Damn, I’m gonna have to get this. Every model is amazing.
These models look fantastic! I especially love the ninja a big green dude
Man, this is such a win for both YJ and Haqq. Just killer. Cant wait to include these Ghulam in my Haqq army.
This looks so unbelievable!!! My 14 year old son and I are dying to get into this system. We are feeling a little lost after collecting a bretonnian army for the last 6 years and now feel it is time to take a break… the miniatures are beautiful and I actually met some great reps at Adepticon this year. I think this would be the game for us. I love the gameplay and the small skirmish style armies involved. They totally remind me of rainbow 6 rangers! Beautiful stuff!!
wasn’t planning on starting haqq or yj but it seems i don’t have a choice now. these all look great
corvus belli leads the way…!
Got into infinity by playing a couple of test games with a friend with the icestorm box set. Decided for Yu Jing and now I own about two dozen minis with more coming in every other week. We play slowly, still learning the rules, started with 150 points and raise the point level every couple of games. Amazing new minis and terrain and Haqqislam will definitely be my second faction. Im not splitting the box, I’m keeping both.
I think the Red veil box is a very goodeffort from corvus belli. I’ve been looking at this game a long time but never really bought anything until now. Preordered Red veil last night
I haven’t played infinity, never been bitten by this bug. But the models certainly look very impressive and would be great to paint.
Yes! Infinity week again! I’m really looking forward to the battle reports. And I love the new box, especially since I was toying with the idea of getting another faction and was undecided between YuJing and Haqqislam. (And now I will probably end up getting both… Oh well)
I love that it’s all metal, yes it’s a bit harder to put together, but the detail for painting and the weight just make up for it so much. Much approve of all of this.
This Kunoichi with tactical bow, this Hsien warrior…
You think Corvus belli is good and then they blow your mind once again…
The ninja! That is a great looking model!
Love the minis, this box looks soooooo good!
love the look of the minis
Infinity has the best starter sets. And they keep adding new ones with different factions. Great way to spread the love.
What a great starter set and the mega bundle in Warren!s words Oh My God! BOW is the place to view Infinity and in this video they do not disappoint.
I’m stoked by that terrain. USAriadna base was very nice and detailed, but Neon Lotus is heterogeneous and astonishingly beautiful. New design of terrain is a level up in terms of playability!
It’s awesome and it makes me curious who will be next? Aleph – CA?
That bow…. oh yes!
Now I have no idea which set to pick up. I was sold on the Nomads but Yu Jing is now neck and neck.
Haqqislam is awesome, so much character for regular troops.
Time to get a second job
We’ve just started infinity at the gaming club, and this looks like a great way to get new players in, especially with the new terrain which just looks amazing. And I’m definitely getting the gencon bundle the unknown soldier will go nicely with my USARF thank you very much Corvus Belli
Looks awesome!
Wow Icestorm was nice, but this might actually have to come home with me at some point…
i started a haqislam crew i would love looooove to get some of these minis to add to my crew..
Love that Ninja with the tac bow, can be used to proxy any number of things.
J’aime vraiment le look des Haqqislam.
Looks like a great pack. Will definitely preorder to boost my Haqqislam. The Yu Jing seem like a great opportunity to work on my airbrush skills.
CB does it again
Once again CB prove they make the best minis on the market, who else makes such dynamic, characterful miniatures. Most miniatures I just slap the paint on to get them on the table, Infinity miniatures demand better than that. I’m already looking forward to painting these up.
I just bought the Operation Icestorm starter pack, and love the models. This one looks equally stunning!
Not my factions, but they look good so might just pick them up. Strangely enough I am rather keen on the terrain too.
And just like that my resistance is broken 🙂 I’m also an Infinity holdout for whatever reason but this is the one, having a Haqqislam playing mate to go halves with is also helpful but this box is a thing of beauty
This could be the set that gets me into infinity! love the sculpts!
Great show Warren, one of the best what`s in the box to date. I`m loving Operation: Red Veil, all the mini`s look great and i bet they even look better up close. Not sure if the pennies will allow me to get a copy, but you never know i may find some lose change down the back of the sofa 😉
As for the mini`s, i`m split between the “Ninja” and the Haqqislam walking female trooper. There both really nice (as are all the mini`s), but as to which one i`d pick i would have to say no contest both of them. The scenery is a step up from “Ice Storm”, it`s not better than ice storm it just has those few little extra touches…..eg we now have over head foot paths (bridges), and looking at the scenery i`m sure it won`t take long before we see the scenery from both set`s being used in games.
Failing me being able to buy “Red Veil”, i`ll settle for waiting till December for a copy.
I’ve always looked at infinity and have not taken the jump. This might have to change.
I’d just been looking at Infinity last week, so this new starter is pretty perfectly timed… Love the look of that Yu Jing ninja with the bow, lovely sculpt
great new models loving the big green dude
Very nice box set!
Damn it, CB! I tried so hard to stick to one faction, but these boxes are so attractive! Not just in terms of price, but the content and overall presentation too. I guess Warzone won’t be the only game where I will have a force for every faction 😀
Infinity definitely has some of the nicest minis going.
wow, so many goodies in one box, do we know what the rrp is yet?
Great unboxing guys
going halves on that with a mate for the models
Red veil looks awesome. I am always tempted to get into infinity just for the Haqqislam models, especially the snipers in the faction.
As a random have Corvus Belli considered getting a SSL certificate (https) as the lack of one is the main reason that I never (pre)order from them.
I’m sure it’s been said already but that ninja model is absolutely amazing! Sometimes CB skate a fine line in the action vs sexy scale of their female models but this one is absolutely perfect in my opinion. So much dynamism, so much sharp detail. You can imagine her actually being able to perform her combat role dressed and equipped like that (except maybe if she had to climb stairs quickly in her heels :P). A great model 🙂
Looks like my wallet will be taking some damage when this comes out!
The terrian and the mat look excellent. I think they will find themselves in alot of different games
Squeeeeeee! Sick models, CB! Absolutely amazing.
Every time Warren touches a “super cool Giraldez’s miniature” I feel a bit of pressure in my left arm… Do you think this is too bad doctor?
As a stating Haq player, I really want this!!!
Loving these new models. That Al Fasid model just looks so sweet. And the new terrain is awesome.
Gah! These models are so cool!
My two factions in one box, plus a yuan yuan? Yes please!! Thanks CB!
Man, how can I resist such a great pack, especially as a Yu Jing player!! Just a bummer you don’t get the special deal through your LGS… but hey… 🙂
Pretty cool box set.
I love the direction that Corvus Belli is moving. Putting out top notch products for a great game!
Super awesome coverage – has total inspired the hobiness in me – looking forward to get playing infinity and inspire my firends in my local gaming club
Can’t wait to get my hands on this set. It’s inspired me to move beyond Qapu Khalqi to start building a large vanilla Haqq force.
More gorgeous models incoming!
Pew pew combi-rifle
Very nice looking set! Was considering a small Haq force – now strongly considering one.
Nice un boxing of some truly lovely mini’s. Don’t really have the following locally to start another system.
Would really love to get the red veil box, but only for 1mini. The ninja, to use as a objective marker for my MERCs Keizi Waza faction. Not really worth it, but I do like the mini’s!
Wow, Can’t wait to see these at Gen Con! Are they bringing a limited amount of copies like they did at Adepticon for Human Sphere?
this is just amazing…. my bank account will suffer again!
Very impressive how different the cardboard terrain is compared to the Icestorm stuff, can definitely see improvement over an already excellent pack
It’s that time of the year when Carlos and the guys from CB pick my wallet clean.
Comment for prizes
Minis, terrain, more minis, all you need to play…. and all is awesome!
Ah, the two factions I’ve had my eye on. Looks like an awesome box.
i think this may be the set that finally gets me into infinity
Superb set. My early xmas list just got bigger 🙂
this would add to my JSA and Hassassin factions
Nice models.
Wish they were plastic though…
Another box-splitter here!
aww and I just got Icestorm. oh well. Do really like the look and feel of this set tho.
Have picked up other boxes and this one looks really nice. Can never have too much terrain.
The starter box contents seem to get better and better with each release. Supplying a diverse sets of terrain is a big improvement.
Let me win!
Pre-order or not pre-order 😀
Warren did a great job of selling the terrain – so well, I found myself craving to go in for the pre-order just for the buildings!
And now I bought it and I’ll have to find someone to buy the Haqqi’s half or I’ll start a new faction again 😀
Everyone tells me I should be playing Infinity so if I win I promise to paint it up and share it with a friend.
I am loving this so much
still trying to get a game of this in at some point, got my Yu-Jing squad waiting around 😛 think i definetely need to pick up Red Veil some point soon
Just when I thought I was over the Infinity bug, this comes along…. Such a great set.
So much good stuff coming out of Corvus Beli….will Operation Icestorm still be available?
Winning?
Nice pleased i have Haq collection
Good bye presious money… good bye.
Really want to start one of these.
The customeeple painted models looks soooo good!
Godamnit! I’ve already pre-ordered, but the thought of picking up the Unknown Ranger mini means I may pre-order ANOTHER set from CB direct!
Outstanding! I already ordered! Yu Jing looks sweet, Hqq is tempting also!
Excellent video – I love the enthusiasm! Seriously, you’re love for this stuff is infectious.
This is partly a post to enter the comp, partly a post to point out that t shirts epicness.
Mine!
Just put my preorder in! Another superb box set from Corvus Belli. Keep them coming guys!
Looks awesome, but why oh why did the bow ninja have to be the limited mini? And it’s gonna be hard not to gut the card buildings to spice up my MDF terrain.
just spent all of the moneys… now I am going to have to find ways to pay for this box.. because it looks great. incredible job CB. Operation Ice Storm was one of my favorite miniature purchases. keep them coming…
(Maybe I can win something and use it to trade a buddy for the new set! eh BOW?)
That new terrain is sweet
Very cool video. Really enjoyed seeing all the components and learning why they were chosen.
I do like the way this unboxing is done. The mini’s are sweet & I do like the fact that it has buildable terrain. So it is going to be interesting to see how this does against Operation Ice Storm.
Thanks for these series its the best explanation of infinity Ive seen and I cant wait to get into it. I really want that prize operation icestorm.
Hope the next starter set contains some Aleph!
Really looking forward to this. I was planning to go Tohaa but those Yu-Jing models sold it for me.
and they did it again. It is amazing how CB keeps improving with every release! The miniatures are brilliant, it seems like I will finally have a starting point for a Haqqislam army and so an excuse to get me a Maghariba Guard. 😀
Both my factions on the same box, how about that?
This is a great looking set, the models look excellent. I think the guys at Corvus Belli really know how to engage newcomers and veteran players alike with sets like these.
I really like Haqq’s new trenchcoat & turbans look. So tempting…
If only I could paint that good.
Are we going to get the point values of the models included in later videos? Is there going to be a step by step guide through all the missions in the booklet?
Never got round to picking up O:IS so will definitely be grabbing this one.
“Not going to buy anymore minis” I said, but it’s so good!
Yeah, love this very tempted by operation icestorm ut this one must be mine.
Curse you for making these starter boxes so tempting. I failed to resist buying Operation Ice Storm, I failed with the Ariadna box, and I can see the same thing happening with this.
The new buildings look awesome!
Time to preorder 🙂
I suppose I ought to check out what everyone is banging on about with this game. Those Yu Jing are looking awesome!!
I love the new Zanshi sculpts!
Infinity is a game I can appreciate for it’s rules, but the style of the models has never gripped me. The newer Haqqislam stuff is interesting though…
Loving the figs. Just wondering why the Al Fassed regiment is so much cooler than the other has HIs. With HMG, LGL, mines, heavy pistol – the janissaries and azra’il seem bland in comparison.
Amazing miniatures
God damn it. I really should not start collecting YET another faction, really. But this new Haqq looks so god damn good…
This set is beast!
So many superb minis, but almost as many silly poses. It’s a painful conflict
Top quality as always. I really like the terain.
I like both factions a lot, i might struggle to share that set with a friend
looking forward to it
Looks great, and I love the ninja!
This set looks pretty good!
Models are awesome, i really need to get one!
Love the art direction with the terrain and color schemes!
And I haven’t pulled up the army lists and stats, but looks like some great forces… the operation ice storm lists are good, nice starter forces, but I don’t think they give you much sense of how Nomads play, while the Pan-O is a nice basic force … it also doesn’t help that I’m horrible at moving up the CC units and never get them into combat!!!
I really love the Haqqislam mini is with pistols, like a Starlord mash-up 😀
The more I see it the more I love these terrains and the more I consider buying some packs when it’ll become available separatly.
I have a rather large pile of to-do projects, but Infinity really has been elbowing itself to the top of my Wanted list. Looking forward to start on it!
these models are so awesome. Great value.
A cracking week so far, almost convinced 🙂
Fantastic review and it has made me want to play infinity
nice box!
Really liking the new Yu-Jing buildings.
I want the box today
Really looking forward to this…I was going to switch to ALEPH…but this has made me dig out my Haqq 🙂
Thank you Corvus Belli!
Awesome stuff guys, like always !!
the bow ninja is just amazing!!
Love the two player starter sets. Seems like a great deal as well.
Would love to get my hands on the new set. Models are impressive.
I love the quality of Corvus Belli’s boxes. What is more when I got my Operation Icestorm one figure was missing. Thanks to their superb working customer service I got the missing miniature within a 4 days time from Spain to Poland. Ain’t that a blast?
The Minis are so nice!
Daaamn, those are some beautiful models
The models for both factions look amazing and the terrain is gorgeous. I’ve been looking at starting a Haqqislam army for a while and I think I just found what I was looking for. Keep up the good work CB.
Those are some REALLY good looking models and neat paper terrains..
For me it’s perfect… I want a little bit of all factions… those box are perfect 🙂
It’s definitely something wrong with the haqq dice 😀
Corvus Belli is one of the crazies companies out there
Let’s see what in the box!
The ranger shield colors should be like Captin America’s, the first one befor the round shield.
A very nice box
That is one astounding set of miniatures – well done corvus belli!
Time to start Haqq it seems 😀
Never really been a fan of the Hag sculpts, but these are pretty awesome…. might not end up splitting this after all.
The box has great content! Minis.. terrain.. even the artwork is awesome
What a beautiful set.
I find the background of Infinity very intriguing, and the models are simply awesome. The rules too are very good. It’s the bright manga-style art that I’ve found difficult to come to grips with, and so I’ve been on the fence about this game for sometime now. However, after seeing the painted models for Red Veil with their more subdued colour pallet, I’m now certain I can get over the art style and make this game my own.
I’m going to take the plunge.
Ninja model is definitely my favourite and great to see another starter set. Hopefully a trend and a good way to get more Aleph Vidic models out there hint hint!
I so need this set – both of the factions I was leaning toward picking up already, included in one box! Way to read my mind CB.
Really looking forward tobthis.
every one of these sculpts is amazing!
So cool!
As a Yu Jing player, I am super excited to see these get out into the players hand to be played.
They’ve done some great design work on this set. The new Zhanshi are particularly great both in general uniform and in posing… I was always a big fan of the original Zhanshi because the female model shared the same equipment, the same combat-ready posture, as the male ones, and these seem not to have abandoned the trend.
Looks good
Loving the new card scenery, always fantastic.
Definitely prefer the look of this set to the first one !
Great pre-order minis as well.
Models look amazing as always
glad I found someone to split the box with. Although I really want to start with YJ too now ^^
Arrgh! Cannot wait for this. Might have to try and get a copy from Gencon.
lookin good
Another exclusive mini that will go overrated on second hand market!
Those models are absolutely insane. The detail is just awe inspiring. Thinking on many conversion opportunities with these!
This looks very nice
Ugh… Crit on my wallet…
I’ve been resisting, as I have so much on my painting desk, but these models are extremely tempting.
I want it.
Models look amazing.
It’s full of star minis!
Love this – all this stuff will be great for use with the Infinity RPG as well
Love the new terrain and look. I am starting two new factions. These starter sets are great. Is there a possibility of Tahoo vs. Combined Army?
Every release for Infinity gets better and better! From its beautiful models, art style which reminds me of appleseed, to the solid game play, Infinity is my fave game! Now if I could only paint half as good as Angel.
OUTSTANDING
Carlos needs to shut up and take my money. Holy crap, these guys produce some beautiful work.
I chuckled.. I am so sorry, but I could not help it… Dead Faces!! – and HOLEE CRAPS!! Faction Dice look GREAT! nice little edge for the player 🙂
This is a beautiful set; you have broken me, I will never have any money (but lots of incredible miniatures), where can i sign up?…
Ice storm is an awesome starter set (my jump in point), and the usariadna is a great bundle with themed terrain. loving the evolution of the card terrain.
I want it !
Oh man this is a great looking set. Been meaning to get into infinity for the longest, and personally haq and yu-jing are my favorite factions. Great looking minis, hope I win.
Ooh! So much nice stuff!
Beautiful set. Can’t wait to get mine.
I think I agree, the Ninja is the belle of the box.
Must… resist.. urge… to… buy… more… miniatures!!
top notch box set defo oing to pick one up pre order
Really interested to get into this game… But watching the battle report there was some amount of adding and subtracting! – sure it’s easy enough once you get used to it!
This looks like a very good jumping in point for new wargamer like myself to get into
Just love that Manga terrain.
The quality is really quite good (British understatement of the thread).
Yay new starter set!
I just want this! 🙂
I have loved Operation icestorm.
I will love Operation Red-veil
Infinity stuff improve over time like wine !!!
Want YJ.
I like the fact that there are also buildings inside not only minis. It’s perfect to show someone the beauty of this game without the need to buy additional terrain.
And the minis are beautiful as ever. Especially the Ninja with tac.Bow.
Not not “just buildings”, but terrain for a whole table
Already preordered the box.
Can’t wait to lay my hands on it.
extensive content 🙂
Plan on keeping all of the goodies in the box for myself.
Operation Red Veil has totally sold me on both Yu Jing and Haqqislam.
I love that pose for the Unknown Ranger. I’m worried now that the general release version won’t look as nice.
Those models rival GW. Well done CB.
I had always said that, if I ever got a third Infinity faction after Aleph and Haqqislam, it would either be MIitary Orders or Tohaa… guess what, it looks like it’ll be Yu Jing… ^^’
Not had any time this week. So looking forward to a marathon of all the vids today. Yay.
Some really beautiful sculpts there.
really want to find out how the heavy changed with that new size profile and yet hopefully not eclipse the Azrail. Probably will as they’ll pretty much be the same loadout but with more skills.
How do you guys of Corvus Belli do this. Always make so beautiful miniatures. Really love them. I play Caledonians, but if I see these ones I want to start Haqqislam. The Ju Ying are nice too, but love the Haqqislam more. Thanks for sharing.
Great new starter set and those models are amazing. I’ve got ice storm but going to pre-order this too.
Wow, another game I didn’t know I needed!
Corvus Belli is on FIRE! These guys are really turning this game into something great.
amazing starter set
This is on my list to get into this year. I played some games back in1st edition but never jumped into it even though I really liked the game rules, part of was due to relocating and not having anyone to play. Now though I’m really tempted by the miniature range and the fact I’m looking for a new sci-fi skirmish game. So plan is to pick up both this and Icestirm before Xmas.
I really like the paint scheme of the Yu jing by the custom meeple guys.
I like this starter!
I really want this
Infinity is a great game. Looking forward to more coverage
I love these new minis..:)
When you neither play Haq or Yu but just start with both D:
I wasn’t expecting a new 2 player set, but wow…How to decide between those two faction? Just what I needed to get involved with the new version of this game.
Didn’t think they could do much better after IceStorm, but the new terrain is a step-up and the models are fantastic. Wasn’t considering a Haq force before this, but I’m loving those models!
This unboxing was cool!
Very nice box of miniatures. The Haqqislam are my favorites in the box. But those Mushashi minis are just standing.
Well, now I’ll have to find myself a correctly scaled porter potty 🙂
This is the cool stuff!
Realistic posing. Might need to start a new army..
just such high quality box set, and the terrain just enough to help you get started
Great starting box, for a very decent price. These minis are awesome, especially the archer.
The new models are super!
I’m unnecessarily excited about this, might have something to do with a ninja with a bow.
Drooling at the minis is not unusual with Infinity, but the card terrain is breathtaking. Seriously well done, chicos!
I hope more companies learn from this and release multiple starter sets for different factions.
Love the look of that box, wow!
Really digging the new box. Infinity sculpts are so good
Wow! It’s sure crammed of stuff!
Another nice complete set, and the models look really nice.
Pretty new toys. so nice.
They have definitely upped their game with this box set
Pre-Ordered!
Awesome that they’re varying up the terrain: It means you can start making tables using just the flatpack terrain and not have it just be a box sea!
I love the look of that unknown ranger: It’s more than I could have hoped for in him! I’ll be curious to see how they pull off a -more- badass pose for general release!
first thing first. Carlos your the man! and red veil box… omg fluff in this is sooo funny. and two language rulebook? this is soo well tought. cool, cool, cool
Another amazing box from CB!
Lots of nice things!
I have this preordered and am literally counting the days until its mine!
Infinity is great!
Hope still leaveon time to a comment.
Order both exclusive models cant wait to pick up and paint.
