Infinity, a futuristic sci-fi universe with manga aesthetics.
Entering the world of wargames or miniature games may seem complicated, but it is not! If you feel like you want to play, that’s just enough to get into it.
Once you have taken the time to learn the basic structure of the game, you just need to play and enjoy mastering it!
WHY YOU SHOULD TRY INFINITY
Infinity is a vast universe and full of detail that creates an immersive experience for the player, making most of the newcomers stay for and want to be part of it.
That is why the audience for Infinity is very diverse: Video game players; fans of fiction, film, comics, or role-playing games; people interested in strategy, tabletop and board games; miniature painters or model-maker amateurs; those who are attracted by the historical, futuristic, warlike setting - and those who seek to be part of a community, a new hobby or an adventure to live (by themselves or with friends), having fun along the way.
Do you want to know more? Keep reading!
1. The number of players
The battles are designed for 2 players to take part in (1 vs. 1), unlike most board games that usually require a larger group. This aspect facilitates the continuity of the game since you only need one opponent to play.
But this also doesn’t mean that you can’t play with a bigger group.
Playing in small tournaments with 4 or more friends, where each one can choose a faction and play using different strategies against each of them.
The more you play, the richer experience you’ll have!
2. We are everywhere
Infinity has an international community of players where you can ask for advice, get started, and meet other fans.
We have more than 300 official ‘warcors’ around the globe. They are registered players with experience with the game who organize initiation games, demo events, tournaments and more - all within their city.
Locate the closest one to your area on this digital map and join the Infinity community!
3. Game quality
Infinity is a game designed by and for players! Both the background and the rules were created with great care and thoroughly tested by internal and external players.
Furthermore, we produce our metal miniatures in our own workshop located in Galicia (Spain).
From here we develop and manufacture all our products. We leave nothing to chance because we look for quality in everything we do.
We make the best metal miniatures on the market!
4. Great replayability
Playing with the very same army you can have infinite possibilities!
In Infinity, you have several scenarios, and the attack and defense strategies are almost unlimited.
This way, you can use the very same army and each time and yet find yourself in totally different situations.
The richness of the game’s rules gives you the freedom to explore and include an unlimited tactical approach to your game. In addition to this, you can download the complete rulebook for free on our website.
5. Scalability
Play fast and intense games, or long-lasting narrative campaigns increasing the complexity level of the mission.
- 15 pts games (With everything included in the Starterpack)
- 25 pts games (Suggested list pdf starterpack + beyond)
- 30 pts with more possibilities.
The type of game will be established by the size of the playing space, a number of miniatures, and duration.
6. Background
180 years in the future, advanced technology, the domination of the planets, and the fight between human, non-human, and alien armies …
The Infinity universe has a story behind it, a setting that gives meaning to the military tasks that you are asked to undertake and gives life to the troops.
Each battle box contains a piece of background that introduces the new characters included in the same box and its included scenarios. With what is included in a battle box it is more than enough to play the games, but if you enjoy science fiction narratives you have tons of pages to read about Infinity that will help you get into the character and help you follow the events.
Enjoy the battles even more and discover new rules to apply on the battlefield!
7. Painting Scale Models
All Infinity miniatures are made of metal, the mat is printed on coated paper (very resistant), and the buildings and other scenery elements, such as the cardboard modules, are pre-printed.
You don't need more than this to play, although many Infinity players like to spend time working on the terrain, painting their troops, adding detail on the maps, replacing the structures with others - giving their personal touch to the game table!
This portion of the hobby is certainly an art, and we can’t deny that the fact that playing on a scene designed and built by yourself gives so much more satisfaction.
8. Army
Each model and weapon has its special features that influence the actions on the battlefield. In many other tabletop games, it is usual for each object and character to have a physical card that lists their abilities and damage values, but if you have a big army that might end up being a mess!
In Infinity, you have everything at hand with our Infinity Army App.
Infinity Army CodeOhe is the official Army Lists creation tool, online and completely free, that keeps track of all troops, weapons, and scores available and updated on the fly.
Customize your list and the app will automatically create a file with all the selected data you need on hand when playing. There are two different versions: the web app and the mobile app.
9. Free resources
In the ‘downloads’ section of infinitythegame.com, you can find and get for free all of the complete rules, missions, background, templates, scenarios, and holograms.
It also has free downloadable missions with its own story and goals to accomplish.
The best way to experience the Infinity universe.
