Hi,
I'm Bawon Samdi and i live near Lille (north of France).
My main motivation to come here is the "You Write the Lore" contest (i always love writing some fanfic for any kind of RPG and miniature games). And since i already write some background about myself to be part of the Warcor program (i'm in !), i think i will just copy/paste:

Since when do you play Infinity ?
Since the release of the very first starter box.

What do you like about Infinity ?
In no special order: it's unique gameplay ; it's use of the most advanced tech and transhumanism theories ; it's gorgeous miniatures ; it's manga feel.

What don't you like about Infinity ?
Too many rules with too many exceptions. Rules are poorly organized. french translation add some flaws. Some miniatures (especially feminine ones) display some vulgar and unnecessary fan service.

Other games ?
Mostly: Batman Miniature Game, Bloodbowl, X-Wing, Urban War, Eden, Confrontation

What do you like about these games ?
Like Infinity they are small scale games with 5 to 15 miniatures on table. Some of them are fun (bloodbowl), some are tactically deep while keeping rules simple (Eden, Urban War).

What don't you like about these games ?
Some seem too random like Bloodbowl or Confrontation. Miniature quality and faction design can be an issue, especially with Eden.

I play Combined Army, Yu Jing and Nomads (and all their respective sectorial armies)

Welcome! Such a cool idea to introduce yourself by answering the Warcor questions. Fun and insightful, thanks!

I also play the Batman Miniature Game, btw. A very good alternative to Infinity!

Funny thought, i think that i may be the last member to genuinely register to this board, not because of the Shutdown. Makes me feel special. :mrgreen:
