As it's Infinity Week 2013 we thought it would be great to get you Backstagers some free sci-fi terrain. So we did! The great people over at www.battlesystems.co.uk have come up with a fantastic free download in the form of their […]
Another day in Infinity Week 2013 means it's time for another wallpaper. This time PanOceania get their outing.
It's the last Day of Infinity Week 2013 and the guys are ready to move on to the next of the faction design videos. Lets roll out the Combined Army and have a look at some of the great art before hearing just what the sinister E.I. looks for in its forces.
CHAT HERE: http://www.beastsofwar.com/chat-infinity/ Check in now as Carlos and Gutier from Corvus Belli will be sitting down for a Live Text Chat with you folks right here on the Beasts of War chatroom at 5pm. Get the ball rolling with some questions and topics within!
We all know that in any world there will be those soldiers who sell their skills to the highest bidder, and the world of Infinity is no different. It's time for Carlos to run us through designing the Mercenaries faction and of course take a look at the artwork that didn't make it into their lavish Artbook. Are some of your favourite troops in here?
There was allot of love for the Nomads in the comments yesterday so today we thought it was time they got their wallpaper.
Now we're having a look at the design of the Haqqislam faction of Infinity, with yet more amazing art work that unfortunately didn't make it into the book (but we get to bring it to you guys anyway!).
I think we all have a soft spot in our hearts for the Nomad faction. Gav and Carlos are back again and have got stuck in, having a look at what it takes to design a Nomad miniature and what design choices come up with a faction like this.
It's day 3 and we have given the very cool Haqqislam the wallpaper treatment.
Check out some of the new additions to the DUST line-up under the stewardship of Gale Force Nine. It's looking like the tail end of the year is going to be pretty terrific!
Time for a look at the killer art for the Yu Jing that didn't make it to the new Infinity Art Book. Asuka Kisaragi is one of them and this mean biker chick might have something to say about that! Carlos delves into the design and choices behind creating this awesome Oriental faction.
Romain finishes off his masterful paint job on Painting Astorath the Grim. He gets to work on picking out all those last minute details that really set this miniature apart from others!
Today we have a classy set of wallpapers for the Combined Army. The wallpapers are available in two sizes which will look great on any desktop or tablet like the iPad.
The guys break out the new kids of the Infinity universe to have a look at what inspired the faction, their style of play, and the idea that their armour is symbiotic! Don't forget that what we're all getting a peek at is the art that didn't make it to the new Infinity art book, and it still looks fantastic!
The next faction for us to have a look at is Ariadna, and again I'm stunned by what has been left out of the artbook! I know plenty of people will ask why some of these were not added in but I'm guessing that it's probably one of the hardest decisions the Infinity team has had to make!
Each day of Infinity Week 2013 we are going to have a free Infinity wallpaper available to download by anyone that has a FREE account here on Beasts of War.
Time to kick off Infinity Week with our first look at the design of the ALEPH faction. The guys get a look at what didn't make it in to the art book and if these are the unfortunate ones that were left on the cutting room floor then I cant wait to see the amazing art in Art Book One.
Welcome to Infinity Week! Warren has been joined by Carlos from Corvus Belli to give everyone a quick introduction as to what's going to be happening this week. He also lets you know about the fantastic Miranda Ashcroft miniature you can get your wargaming mitts on!
The time has come. Warren is finally ready to take on David and his Allied forces! Get ready as Warren rolls out with his STUG III army and unleashes the fires of hell!
So guys with Infinity Week just around the corner we thought we'd show off the latest of the new releases coming out of the Infinity studios.
That's right another fun packed week of Infinity goodness kicks off on Monday July 1st 2013!

I take a look through the second role-playing set for the Dragon Age RPG by Green Ronin. New Backgrounds, Specialisations, Equipment and more can be found within and I think it's a key bit of kit for Games Masters and Players alike.
What is more dangerous than an army of killing arcane robots? A giant killing arcane robot!
Lee takes a short intermission to explore an important game in the history of the Eldar race. Doom of the Eldar was the first real look at Craftworld Iyanden and it paved the way for the infamous Tyranids too!

The guys are feeling the need for speed as they take a look at the Fast Attack choices of the new Eldar Codex. What do you reckon will be their choice as they delve into this high speed section?
Justin has just picked up Level 7 [Escape] from Privateer Press so he's grabbed Mike to see just what this creepy game is all about. Will they approve of this hauntingly horrifying survival game?
Lee's back with the second part of his article series, From Empire to Fall. In this second part Lee explores the development of vehicles and walkers within the Eldar army and those fan favourites, the Harlequins.
Time for a look at the elites for the new Eldar Codex. How have all the Aspect Warriors fared in the new book? We shall see if they still have a place in your army list, or if they should be relegated to the miniatures shelf to gather dust.
Raging Heroes' Kickstarter campaign for The Toughest Girls in the Galaxy has been a resounding success, so much so that they are bringing out new stretch goals for past the $400,000 mark.
Lee Trayler, who has been exploring the Eldar Codex this week with Andy, has put together a series of articles detailing the history of the Eldar in the hobby and their fluff. Enjoy Part One where he looks at the development of these 'Space Elves'.
Day two of the Eldar Codex Breakdown sees Lee and Andy having a look at the troops of the Eldar. Will this army of enigmatic aliens still be taking Guardians and Weapon Platforms or will you be ditching them completely?
Check out a whole range of new releases from Spartan Games for their various games this July.
You've all been waiting for our thoughts on the new Eldar Codex and now it's finally here. Join us as Andy and Lee delve deep in to the book and have a look at what they think got better, who they think lost out, and start to give us all a feel for the faction.
Last week saw the awesome Grumpy Old War Gamers Convention come to Tabletop Nation and in this weekends XLBS we discuss what we thought of the event and what we'd like to do in the future too!
