Soviet GAZ 67 field car with crew of two: Privateer Press: And from our friends over at Infinity, almost every faction gets a blister or dare I say, TAG this month!

I am increasingly tempted for the Infinity system due to it being cheap on the pocket compared to 40k/WFB excellent miniatures, interesting gameplay (really lethal weapons, overwatch-like reactive orders, combat hackers - no stupid psykers or wizards, make some real world magic like hacking enemy mech to join you) and finally to spite GW monopoly.
My faves so far are either Knightly Orders under Joan of Arc or Aleph's sexy fembots... for those who dont know I'm referring to Asura and Deva models not Dakinins.

Personally I'm all Ariadna, except for their furry units, those can burn in hell. I'm also tempted by the Haqqislam and Yu Jing, who have great assassin and ninja models respectively.

The best things about Ariadna are their massive amounts of guerilla camo scout types and that their heavy infantry runs on OS so old that no one remembers how to hack them... oh and those dirty aliens cant posses their cubes because they dont have them razz plus you won't be getting back on your feet after teseum round in the gut... twisted And dont start me on the ninjas, I've seen Oniwaban cut I-kill-yes in half with monofilament katana... if you are assassin's creed player you certainly should dig ninjas and assassins ninja

The Ariadna WS1 TAG should be popping up some time this Summer if rumours are true.

I'm thinking more along the lines of other faction TAG design, just bigger, heavier, more hard sci-fi.

Still need to read the Infinity rulebook and Human Sphere expansion, so I'm not sure as to what Crazy Koala's actually do. I've been sitting on both books since late March now and have been reading bits and bobs every now and then, but finding the actual time to go through them is hard, especially when I'm going through a pile of Rogue Trader books right now to better prepare myself for the campaign I'm in.
The O-Yoroi is an okay model, not really my style, though I do dig the arms of the pilot sticking out like that. I'm more a fan of the Ninja infantry really when it comes to Yu Jing, which is their best offering in cyber punk for me.

those cute koalas follow around their parent model, until something classed as enemy comes within their range... then they will start running towards it, and once in base contact they hug enemy model and explode burning_eyes
you cant shoot them, you cant melee them, you can just pray you are tough enough to survive some serious explosive damage...

Something to keep in mind and read about when I've got my vacation in October. Though chances are I won't dive into Infinity any time soon. My desk is already overstocked with things to read and do. sweatdrop

You can't shoot them? Are they too small? Too well armored? Too fast? Or are those rules just ... overlooked? What if they are caught in a different explosion that their own?
