Infinity Season 9 Hunting Party

It was a quiet night last Tuesday at the club. The oncoming cold, people ill or with new members of their family or stuck at work on the night shift. What ever the reason we were down to a mere 5 people and one was only visiting anyway.

Even so the four of us gaming has a great night. Alas I was all consumed in my game of Infinity and forgot to take photos of the Kings of War game, sorry chaps!

This years scenario book put out by Corvus Belli is known as Season 9 and has a great scenario called Hunting Party. It was very different from the average shoot and grab style scenarios where whittling away the enemy and engaging with the objectives it the way of the game, a balance between the two will be help you attain victory. Hunting Party is about a couple of objective grabs but then you need to capture your opponents specialists and leaders.

I took a pretty shooty Yu Jing force my opponent the same but using Combined army and we had at it. It was a ripper, with the final turn and 3 final orders for the Combined Army with a chance to remove both of the points I had gained but putting at risk his leader, that if lost would give me the game. First order not quite to plan but still not a disaster, second order and the dice fell my opponents way and I chewed on my finger nails. Last order and the dice were mine..............Combined Army lieutenant captured and the victory for Yu Jing.

Happy gaming one and all.

I do look forward to seeing Barry Back in the fold with his foot out of the moon boot of healing.

Play is coming to a head, my teapot is actually a hacker unit in Thermo optical camouflage.

Combined Army Leader leaps the barriers lands in the middle of my troops and stops my hacker in his tracks but my leader off screen shoots a stun weapon and the game in mine.
