Corvus Belli’s Hot Infinity Releases For September
September 23, 2016 by dignity
Continuing a trend of awesome releases month by month Corvus Belli have shown off what they have to offer for the end of September and the world of Infinity. Let's get stuck in!
Zhanshi (Troops Of The Banner)
Leading the way for Yu Jing this month we have some essential front line infantry. From what we're seeing here it looks like you're getting soldiers armed with all manner of different weapon load-outs.
We're liking the addition of both the Sniper and the Missle Launcher armed soldiers as options for taking out dangerous targets on foot and of course for bringing down TAGS!
Taskmasters Bakunin SWAST Team
The Nomads, and in particular the Bakunin Jurisdictional Command, have one hell of a soldier coming their way. He looks fully equipped to deal with a head-on assault sporting a HMG and a cruel looking blade too.
We're really liking the overall look of the heavy armour and all of the augmented musculature keeping this thing moving. Do you reckon he'd get twisted up in that belt of ammo hanging from his thigh though? Nah, surely in the far future they'd have sorted that out!
Overdron Batroids
Letting us know that robots probably know best the Combined Army are dropping the Overdron Batroid into the mix for the Onyx Contact Force. In this case, it feels like bigger is better!
What we really liked about this set was that as well as the big bad scary robot there are also those cute little Tinbots! In-game they gift the big guy with extra skills and modifiers against Hackers.
Garuda Tactbots With Spitfire
Taking to the skies for ALEPH the folks at Corvus Belli have also put together this new design for an old classic. The pose is great and it feels menacing; like an avenging angel about to drop from the skies.
ALEPH really are the full on 'Cyberpunked' faction for Infinity with cybernetic and robotic designs that you could imagine popping up in the likes of Deus Ex.
Krakot Renegades With SMGs
The Mercenaries are sticking with the idea that getting up close and personal is the best idea for the Morat Aggression Force. They've hired this Morat prisoner who escaped the camps and is now spending his days as a soldier of fortune.
Why would you use just one gun when carrying two of them into battle makes you all the more awesome?
Which of these new releases has caught your eye?
That Overdron is undoubtedly a fantastic model but those barrels look *really* impractical for urban warfare. I can only assume the tinbots are fitted with a profanity filter to protect them from the near constant stream of expletives from the Overdron as it negotiates doorways and stairwells…..
Yes, undoubtedly fantastic is correct. Perhaps the Overdron ‘negotiates’ doorways a little differently than you might imagine 😉 And lets face it, that design looks infinitely (see what I did there) more mobile than some of the designs that certain other companies can manage. I wouldn’t expect a space marine dreadnought to be able to step over a curb, never mind negotiate a ruined city scape, its natural environment!
Burst 5, damage 15 Hyper-rapid magnetic cannon… nasty!
Who need’s to ‘negotiate’ with doors armed with that? Just make a new one 😉
“Right team, new plan. Since not only the door, but the entire building is down, let’s just dig out the survivors.”
I’ll have a Taskmaster please.
We have the SWC box for Zhanshi’s – which is fricking awesome! Yeah baby! 😀
The Batroid almost looks like a love child of the EVA01 from Neon Genesis and a Dust Tactics Jagdluther.
And one day I will own all TAGs from Infinity. It’s a promise.
It’s stompy aliens with shoulder guns. SOLD.
It is the kind of miniature that lends itself to all kinds of gaming really 🙂
feel the love in the room. its time for my monthly fanboy flail. so cat walk, lights, music “i’m sexy and I know it”. zhan shi I really like the posture of the missile launcher and the HMG zhan shi. the missile launcher its self look real good, I think its a great design. the paint job on the face of the HMG is really cool. garuda good to see the new Vedic models starting to arrive and the lilac and purple making an appearance makes me happy,its just so sci fi. great dynamic pose for the new sculpt and… Read more »
That muscle-mech looks TERRIFYING!
Some great looking new miniatures for Infinity: look forward to adding those Zhanshi to my growing Yu Jing forces.. might even have to add the Taskmaster to my Icestorm Nomads. So cool.
