What do you think of the profiles?
I must not be seeing something with the Kamau, a 5 point increase and a movement reduction doesn’t add up as an exchange for Mimetism. The HRL is pretty great but everything else looks a bit middling.
The Kriza is amazing though.
…..yeah but he’s a cool scuba dude
It’s probably best to compare the Kamau not with its old profile, but instead with Bolts (they seem to be Varuna’s sectorial equivalent); maybe it was felt that if they kept the same stats, there would be too much overlap with Fusiliers? Some of the weapon options being shown, in a link team that has mimetism, seems pretty good, but who is to say what the rest of the sectorial has in it, and what kind of support it can call on? They seem to suggest that the trooper profile is going to be based mainly around it being a… Read more »
Especially comparing the Kamau to the Bagh-Mari makes them look very bad.
But that could be because the Bagh-Mari are amazing. Bolts less so
these sculpts look amazing, torn between Nomads and panO
Yep! extremely cool new troops and revisits!
God damn that bloody Kamau scuba guy! Can we expect amphibious TAGs for the sectorial? 😀 Wanna see some mech with water wings and an inner tube.
You mean the Cutter? yes, it will be there.
Wanted to say the same thing, the Cutter is a TO Camo, Aquatic Terrain TAG that has been a part of Varuna from the beginning.
Look at that nice guy: https://store.corvusbelli.com/products/panoceania/280216-0088-cutter-tag
IIRC, there is a PanO TAG that has Aquatic Terrain already. It just doesn’t come up often because you don’t see much Aquatic terrain scenarios.
When is the release of those boxes? After the Preorder phase?
Have i already said, that i love the Minis?
Can i run A Kriza and A SWAST together?
You can’t form a Fireteam as they’re different troop types, but they’re both available to vanilla
I’ve never seen BoW give away prizes to those from other countries not in EU or the USA. Is their drawing system rigged?
We don’t ship 95 percent of the prizes the manufacturers do. And we have winners from all over the world 🙂
Well, I’ve never won anything, so it must be rigged!
As an Australian who has won a prize from this site, I can happily confirm that they do ship outside the EU/ US 🙂
I’m an Australian who has won multiple prizes and I can confirm they’ve all arrived here 🙂

Kriza is a really heavy hitter for Tunguska, I can’t wait to see the sectorial. Definitely will use 360 visor m12! Especially with the new full auto rules.
I can wait to see how a fire team of Kamau tears up the board.
Very interesting this kriza bourak. I think it will be very useful attacking and defending objectives.
The Kriza Borac is going to be a beast. On the other hand, the Kamau i s alittle deceiving buuuut, that profile with MSV2 and sniper…
The Kriza Boracs sounds really awesome
and looks like a baby TAG ^^
Cool.
The sectorial for Tunguska is shaping up to be really interesting – super hackers plus really heavy infantry?
Don’t forget the Spectres and Securitate.
pretty and powerful. this is something that Infinity has needed for awhile. Other game designers may want to take note of how this system of rules integration and expansions will bring players into the fold and continue to teach the game.
Interesting where their taking some of the Nomads with the Kriza Boracs.
Your Infinity weeks are so well done.
I want Full Auto on my troops too, oh my god…
Those are some fancy numbers there.
Ntchs… Crap… I made a mistake.
The MOV value of the Kamau is 4-4, not 4-2 as the image in the video states.
Don’t worry, the Army will have the correct data.
Have a nice day.
@bostria 4-2 seemed odd, but I figured it represented how hard it can be to walk on land with swim flippers on. 😀 :p
That Kriza pose…that’s the opening shot of an anime if I ever saw one. Standing atop a towering skyscraper, foot up on edge, looking out over the city, scanning for his target, ready to leap from that impossible height and plunge to earth, slam his fist into the ground, and then just absolutely wreck anyone who gets in his way. Good stuff.
MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!one!!!1!!
I have my brand new Infinity brand See & Say and it goes ‘The Kriza Boracs says “C’mon out, Ol’ Painless has something for ya.”
Full Auto L2 for the win!!
Gosh I want these models, and I don’t play either faction!
That Full Auto is nice and so is the Kriza Boracs, not 100% sure about the Kamau though.
