Data Sphere

This won't be a great use to most of you seen as if you're here on Datasphere is a good chance your already massive Infinity buffs. It will however be of help to your friends of friends of friends who you can't run introduction games for yourself.

A fan mad Introduction to Infinity series where I explain the basic formula I've followed with introduction games now for the last 6 months of so in my local community. 100 Points games with just the core rules than 150 point games with special rules all derived from a 250 point first purchase list/s I've created with cost vs usability in mind.

Example List: 250 Points Caledonian - First Purchase

Ariadna - Caledonian Highlander Army | 10 models

You can see its a decent all-rounder list thats built around an defensive link team.

It scales down to 100 points NO fills learning list.

Then once the new player is happy with their knowledge of the core rules they can kick it up to 150 or 200 points and add some Link Teams/Camouflage/Special Rule goodness.

If they took my advice they will have a decent pool of models to call on to create lists as they see fit and still have room to expand to 300 points for ITS tournaments. Without being 1 list wonders where I've said take this for this purpose.

Production will be as follows.

• Teaser
• Introduction to Core Rules
• Battle Report: Example Core Rules
• Introduction to Special Rules
• Battle Report: Example Special Rules
• Faction Focus: ALEPH
• Faction Focus: STEEL PHALANX

And so on through the factions w/ MORATS appearing as soon as I'm 110% sure of the new starter pack!

Feed back is very welcome as are requests on what to do next regarding Factions!

Great idea.

i support this initiative whole heartedly!
