The Data Sphere Get A Sneaky Look At New ALEPH Preview For Infinity
May 7, 2015 by brennon
The Data Sphere have had another preview sent their way for Infinity which shows off a new face for the world of Infinity that is Scylla The Steel Phalanx NCO...
Hacking In Style
Scylla will be a fantastic Hacker in the game and promises to allow you a lot more board control as you move her around. She looks more librarian than soldier but looks can be deceiving...
Scylla certainly falls into the anime-style camp when it comes to Infinity models as she looks like she'd be at home in any number of those animated cartoons. However there's also something of the Cyberpunk Netrunner about her which I really like.
I suppose her choice of battlefield attire could be forgiven for the fact that she's a Hacker so doesn't really want to get into combat and, well, it's Infinity so what did we expect right? She also carries a shotgun. Who doesn't like shotguns?
It's getting harder and harder to resist Infinity.
"She also carries a shotgun. Who doesn't like shotguns?"
I wonder where’s Charybdis ?…
I would too love to see that.
I would certainly don’t mind falling into Scylla.
Charybdis is the one you fall into. Scylla is the one that bites your head off. 🙂
one for the pre-order pile 🙂
Count me in!
When you work at a tech company, that’s the kind of new employee you hope moves into the cubicle next to you. 🙂
I can just imagine her application interview; She arrives, dressed in a practical and business like suit, conveying a very professional air. As the interview begins, she leads with her experience in AI design and maintenance, system’s security and advanced programming. She is all ready to display her ability to remote hack the command protocols of a TAG in under ten seconds, when the head of the interview panel stops her and says; ‘Yes, yes. I am sure that is all very impressive, but what do you look like in a crop-top? And how are you with sexy poses? While… Read more »
“Yes, you are all men, and hypocritical men at that. Which is why I brought this sword…”
HACK CHOP SLASH!!!
“And why I brought this Boarding Shotgun …”
BLAM BLAM BLAM!!!
“Now, if you corpses will excuse me, Mr. Oriskany and I will step out for a long lunch meeting. Bye bye!”
Now that really would put a stop to all this glass ceiling and workplace harrassment malarky.
You do like your women feisty, don’t you @oriskany? I wonder what Asajj would say…?
Actually, I imagine she would offer our employment seeking hacker some help in dismembering the sexist employment panel…
The lightsaber – if you absolutely, positively, have to decapitate every misogynist in the room… accept no subistute.
And then they could both go off for a long lunch meeting with Mr Oriskany.
Wait… Is ‘long lunch meeting’ a euphamism? If so, I think that came out wrong.
Or maybe not, I’m open minded.
😉
Oh no . . . not the Asajj thing again. 🙂 What can I say? Whoever did the voice acting for that character had a dark, smokey, bourbon voice. About the only thing good in that re****ed -a** series.
A “long lunch meeting” is indeed a euphemism, but not that direct. It’s just when you disappear out of the office for a while, either with a coworker or a quick meet-up in a motel room. 🙂 But no, it has nothing to do with the physical measurements or dimensions of my “lunch.”
I see. I learn a new thing everyday.
And… you know this Sith fetish thing of yours is never going to go away, right? 🙂
Ok, Ok just kidding. i won’t mention it again…
…
… Probably. 😉
Oh, don’t get me wrong, @vetruviangeek . I fully confess to my crush on Asajj. 🙂 Sometimes I’d watch the show with my eyes closed, wishing my name was Obi Wan . .
“Oh, Obi Wan. You missed me . . .”
Unfortunately vetruviangeek, think it’s you vs. decades of Japanese culture/manga influences there (plus no doubt a good amount of human nature/male chauvinism thrown in as well!)
There are many, many more of us than you think, @pacific *cue sinister laughter*
🙂
Surprise surprise its Scylla here!
Steel Phalanx has some impressive units. I wonder if we’ll ever see some general Aleph units again.
That is some good looking concept art.
Nice!
Damn corvus belli went through my closet again! Though what is the sword for, some old fashioned “hacking” if the fancy tech version doesn’t work?
Gives the phrase “cutting into the code” a whole new meaning.
This makes it even harder to resist starting an Aleph Force to go with the others I already have! Damn you Corvus Belli!
Now that is loverly.
Any Idea when she’s going to be availiable..?
With these previews its usually the following month that we see the models available for sale.
Nice. Think I’ll be keeping an eye out for this little lady. 🙂
