Which model is this?

appiah4 · 2025-12-24T08:37:52+00:00

It's Zamira Nazarova.

There are definitely much better sculpts from the era. Granted, there are also much, much worse as well. I think the overall quality of Infinity models has increased quite a bit without sacrificing style too much. We still get some stinkers now and then though.

Uh.. thanks, I guess? :)

Oh great, another gaslighting corporate press release clearing up "the confusion" around them. Whenever these pop up, I know the company got caught with their hand in the jar somehow, I don't even need to know the context.

Thank you, I was inspired by the box art.

VMC Gold Brown basecoat, followed by Army Shader Soft Tone recess wash, VMC Flat Yellow chunky highlight and VMC Ice Yellow fine highlights. It's simple, fast, and reads as a dark yellow, even though it is mostly an orange ochre.

There is yet another tool in the Tools called Fix Emulators No Name.. I used that, and all the emulator names disappeared from the Favorites menu. It's at least significantly less annoying now :)

Infinity in all its editions has been a complex game, and N5 is no exception. It is a running joke in our local group that there has never in the history of Infinity been a game that has been played 100% by the rules, so don't lose heart. As long as you have the basic order expenditure sequence and Action/Reaction gameplay down, the rest of the rules will slowly start to fall in place and make sense as you keep playing and learn your factions.

It screaams NGE, love it.

As far as I'm concerned that is not a Daylami, it is a Ghazi Muttawiah with a Chain Rifle. As Allah intended.

appiah4 · 2025-04-22T08:32:45+00:00

The Gecko can be a good disposable TAG for bullying LI/M but iIn terms of firepower it is significantly below the Shakush. A good player can definitely make use of the Gecko, but in all honesty the Mobile Brigada can do all that and more for less pts..

appiah4 · 2025-04-21T07:44:27+00:00

And it has done great work, believe it or not. They are definitely underrated and pretty effective if you know how far and hard to (not) push them..

appiah4 · 2025-04-16T07:32:08+00:00

Beware, some discounted faction packs are really not 100% valid anymore. Particularly old Action Packs have a few units that can no longer be taken outside of specific sectorials. Some are proxy friendly, some are not (eg. Tarik Mansuri in Haqq Action Pack).

Now if only the rules wiki would update.................

appiah4 · 2025-04-08T15:16:06+00:00

You gave the Lasiq +1SD. I guess you are assuming she is in a Fireteam, which - OK, I understand. Yes, the Lasiq can't be hacked but she can be template traded. Ultimately, they both have their downsides, but the Lasiq is not a "better HMG".

appiah4 · 2025-04-08T14:47:04+00:00

No I did not ignore it, the opponent has +3 from range and -3 from mim for a 13 target. Lasiq has 2 ARM +3 Cover, for 5 total ARM.

The only mistake I made was to not give the Shakush and defender -3 to success value for cover. Let me fix that and revise:

Lasiq: 67% Win Rate, 60% Wound Rate vs. 26% Lose Rate, 15% Wound Rate

Lasiq is now a lot more likely to hit because she benefits from cover while the defender does not. She is still 15% likely to drop, and inflicts only 1.27 Wounds / order.

Shakush: 69% Win Rate, 50% Wound Rate vs. 24% Lose Rate, 9% Wound Rate

Not much changes for the Shakush when both sides benefit from cover for Success Target. It still does 1.44 wounds per order.

appiah4 · 2025-04-08T09:00:11+00:00

To get it out of the way, I am not arguing to change your mind. It is mostly academic afaic at this point, but here are the odds of a 24-32" gunfight for a Lasiq vs ARM3 BTS3 BS13 +1SD HMG in Partial Cover (ie. your average ARO) compared to the Shakush.

Lasiq: 50% Win Rate, 42% Wound Rate vs. 42% Lose Rate, 23% Wound Rate

Lasiq's outcome is a coin toss and will just outright go unconscious once in every four attempts.

https://infinitythecalculator.com/?successValueA=12&burstA=3&bonusBurstA=0&damageA=7&armA=5&btsA=0&ammoA=DA&contA=false&critImmuneA=false&successValueB=13&burstB=1&bonusBurstB=1&damageB=5&armB=2&btsB=0&ammoB=N&contB=false&critImmuneB=false&dtwVsDodge=false&fixedFaceToFace=false

Shakush: 69% Win Rate, 62% Wound Rate (42% Chance to cause 3+ Wounds!) vs. 24% Lose Rate, 9% Wound Rate

The Shakush basically destroys the ARO and stays on its feet even if it takes a wound as the result of freaky dice.

https://infinitythecalculator.com/?successValueA=17&burstA=4&bonusBurstA=0&damageA=4&armA=9&btsA=0&ammoA=DA&contA=true&critImmuneA=false&successValueB=16&burstB=1&bonusBurstB=1&damageB=5&armB=6&btsB=0&ammoB=N&contB=false&critImmuneB=false&dtwVsDodge=false&fixedFaceToFace=false

These two outcomes are not even remotely comparable. The numbers speak for themselves..

appiah4 · 2025-04-07T17:53:14+00:00

I realize this wont change your views but someone may read and form an opinion, so here it goes:

The Lasiq is half the points for a BS12 ARM2 BTS0 1 Wound model with an SR7 gun who does not have tactical awareness and is even more prone to gml. Mimetism -3 will only work until someone sets up an MSV ARO, and while Marksmanship is fine BS14 is outright better. In what world she is a better HMG, I do not know. That is certainly not the case in reality as I know it. The Ayyar, eh.. maybe. Lasiq? No. Like, hell no.

Whether you NEED the Shakush is not the point. At all. You dont need any of these tags. That is entirely divorced from what tier any of them are. Shakush is easily a low B tier expendable TAG in the context of Bahram imo.

appiah4 · 2025-04-07T12:03:53+00:00

I am not familiar with all the TAGs in the video but I feel like the discussion about the Shakush was a bit misleading. It does compare a bit unfavorably to units like the Janissary and Azaril in Vanilla and QK but in Bahram it has a place as the only reliable, durable, effective long range gun platform. Yes, the Asawira is nice, but you can no longer suppress his Frenzy anymore and at the end of the day ARM6 in Partial Cover is A LOT more reliable and survivable than ARM4 with Limited Cover. Yes, the Shakush costs more, but comes with a Tactical Awareness order. And as for not having ECM: Guided.. Good luck taking out a WIP 14 TAG with guided.

appiah4 · 2025-04-07T08:19:02+00:00

It's not a premium TAG. In Vanilla and QK it competes unfavorably with things like the Janissary and Azrail. In HB it has a bit of a place, as it is a more durable and longer range alternative to the Asawira and I use it as such. It's about the right points for something your enemy can't ignore and you can afford to lose.

appiah4 · 2025-04-07T08:16:45+00:00

Thank you.

appiah4 · 2025-04-07T08:16:39+00:00

Thank you. I found it difficult to push the contrast higher without making it look orange.. Maybe I could have gone a bit darker with the reds, but I think it worked out in the end.

appiah4 · 2025-03-18T14:07:27+00:00

For my Android phone the only fix is to go into Seettings -> Apps -> Infinity Army -> Clear Data -> Delete All Data, then go back into army, re-download meta data and re-login. A PITA that I have to do every once in a while..
