Is it Killian or Cillian? Either way, that’s an awfully smug look for the video front 🙂
It’s Killian rather than Cillian which some people pronounce like Sillian 🙂
I thought it was pronounced Gillian. 😛
That would suggest I spend allot of time shipwrecked on islands…
Or get assigned to investigate weird FBI cases with a kook who believes aliens are real…
Smoooooooth intro mate 😉
Oh man, I don’t know what I was paying attention to, but I just noticed that… @dignity might be the editor and thus responsible but it does look like Killian glitches just a little bit before he gets going. rmmbrygddalkathe-yep! 🙂 I mean, such a small break in an otherwise flawless series of videos, but a bit of a laugh.
Wouldn’t be the first time I’ve glitched while talking nor indeed is it the last lol
Killian, I apologise for this, that was a very poor show on our part.
We will try to fix it and some words will be had in here about this.
Apologies again mate 🙁
I think it’s fair to point out that killian does a spot on job with these Infinity videos; I watch all the infinity stuff and he’s always engaged with the material and does a great job of interpreting complex rules for the laity. So, there is 0k reason that there should be embarrassment over such a minor pliif; if anything, it lets us know the BoW are human like the rest of us 🙂 – as hard as that is to believe sometimes; I can’t fathom how you guys do all this and still find time for gaming! In any… Read more »
Would have to agree with the great job Killian has done on these. Really amping up my anticipation for Infinity 3.
@warzan
lol Its OK Warren, this is more entertaining than embarrassing. We’re all human here, well I have my doubts about Lloyd, he could be a terrain making robot given the speed he makes stuff 🙂
Thirded. It’s great to have Killian on the BoW team, and he’s doing a great job with these Infinity videos. Certainly the clarity he brings to rules discussions is very welcome from my point of view as a newcomer to the game.
Right, all this bromance is making me uncomfortable. ‘Scuse me while I go and insult someone 😉
Love a good CC. Nothing like just getting stuck in.
Great video!
Shinobu Kitsune invites you to get in close…
That girls practically an invisible weed-whacker. That’s what, a -9 to enemy rolls when using level 5 surprise attack?
I’m starting to see why you chose the Jotum to expand the Nomads from O.I. box, great vids
I’m a winner
+++ Close combat seems better than N2.
– – – Invulnerability of TAG? When hapen this?
…Seeing the chart meanwhile they were talkng about it would have been nice….Nevertheless yayy for WULVERS!!!!
Another interesting video
These videos are really ramping up my excitement!
Yeah they are really giving me a good feel for the game, much like Icestorm week.
I might not mind Frenzy that much anymore.
I’m happy to finally get to field my ninjas 🙂
I think my favorite part of the close combat is the one where you add everything above 20 to your dice roll, that is going to make the face to face rolls quite easier even if still is one dice against one dice.
Will understand this more once I read the rules.
Been told my ice storm is on its way.
Great content this week.
Another great rule improvement
Can’t wait to use some get in some awesome cc fights between close combat specialist!
Ninjas VS TAGs – now that´s a movie I´d pay to see!
Nice video! Would have been nice to see the chart scroll so we could take a peak while he was explaining it, just like the other videos this week. 🙂
Nice video, ty!
Killing in close combat is always great Mouuuhaaaa lol
Like the idea of choosing which style of fighting you use each activation. Nice tactical process compared to the usual ‘I hit you, you hit me’ CC in other systems.
Natural born warrior starts to sound a lot more interesting
Martial Arts as a selection of abilities is a bit odd considering how other tiered skills work. I guess it will be easy to remember, and the tactical flexibility of it is superb. I do wish CC had burst values similar to guns, though. You lose a lot of stuff just taking it up to Burst 2.
I’m pretty sure I heard one of the changes is that some CC weapons will have a Burst higher than 1, should add even more options into the mix.
