The Future Of Infinity

Well hello there blog world. This is Solodice signing back in after too long of a break. We also have a crap ton (and I mean a lot) of things to talk about.

Let's start with some old but very important news.

Infinity is getting a 3rd edition. Now saying this was a surprise for me would be a lie... I was kind of expecting it. Others on the other hand kind of got blind sided by this. Not that's a bad thing as it's a very good thing!

Moving along now with the gritty details or at least the details CB has teased us with. Here's a nice interview done by BoW early this year at Ficzone giving us some details on 3rd edition and some concept art of some resculpts and new units (which will be shown later in the post). WARNING: Video is 45 minutes long.

Some details about 3rd editions gained from the video:

• 3rd edition will have better translations, set, and order.
• Only units from PanO, Yu Jing, Nomads, CA, and Haqq will be in the book. Tohaa and Aleph units will be found on PDFs on Infinity's main website. 
• The book WILL NOT advance the fluff. It's a redone version of the original rule book and that's why the Tohaa and Aleph are not in it. Aleph was introduced in Human Sphere and Tohaa in Campaign: Paradiso.
• News units doesn't mean new Sectorials either. We'll have to wait till the next book (rumored to be Acheron Falls). 
• New Silhouette mechanic will be introduced to help will LoS.

Now for some other cool info. We have some concepts, and renders, of some new units and some old units getting resculpts (similar to the Morats from last years GenCon). Here they all are in all there glory.

The concept art from the resculpted Nomad Interventors. They even get a new piece of equipment the fast-pandas which are G:Sync repeaters. You can also see how the concepts translated to the models which just put up for pre-order last week. 

A new Ariadna unit called the Spetsnaz.They seem to have two flavors just like that of the Scots Guard. Ambush unit (new unit description) and a AD troop. The ambush model also came out just last week.

Concept of a new Yu Jing HI called the Terra-Cotta Soldiers. These guys are most defiantly part of Yu Jings future Invincible Army Sectorial.
