Infinity is a game of objectives! Outside of a few scenarios, just shooting the other toy soldiers won't do a thing for victory. This is something that is very easy to forget when your opponent only has as many models as you do, which is to say, three. It's even easier to forget when you have Homeridae; they sure won't remember it for you.

As is her wont, Penthesilea drove up - in this case, to a circle that is totally a spot of jungle terrain - and got shot. Fortunately, No Wound Incapacitation is still ALEPH's best friend!

I elected to leave her there for the moment and shifted to Achilles, who I had deployed to right in the middle of the table (oh heck I just realised that I could've put him further forward; alas! It wouldn't have changed much). He went straight up a ladder to see to the fellow who had just shot Penny.

Hello!
Goodbye. Achilles got shot up a bit in the process. The fellow in red across the gap is next.

Achilles blasted his face off with a Panzerfaust, but in the process was shot by that lowly turret the scenario gives you. Alas! Six ARM doesn't help when your dice are awful. Meanwhile, realising that Atalanta was left in a terrible position, I committed the great sin of making her walk somewhere.

These Dakinis are my High-Value Targets. What's that thing Yu Jing had there? ... It's a repeater? Oh.
This is the culprit that claimed a fistful of cards for Yu Jing! Penny's monofilament sword will make short work of them.

Penny's monofilament sword did no such thing; their saves were on fire. The hacker was still alive and it was their turn. They desperately tried to dodge away from Penny; -that- ARO finally got him.

Yu Jing was completely off the table - and won completely!

    Nice report, Commander!

  • thepoorman says:

    The sheer number of successful ARM saves against Penthesilea’s sword was absurd. I feel like the thing had an on/off switch she forgot to flip.

  • Sash says:

    They gave their lives to assure victory, the kind of discipline and dedication reflective of the soldiers the YuJing – They will be remembered! Glory to the State Empire!

  • Camarones says:

    “Play the mission” is perhaps the best lesson one can take to heart in Infinity. Another quality report, commander, and another recommended commendation.

    Very interesting battle, shows a lot of the reasons I love this game! Bet that from now on you’ll play objectives real hard.
