Possible Infinity Tournament?
« on: February 22, 2012, 10:24:20 AM »
I apologize if this is the wrong spot to post (If it is please move to the appropriate section).  I had an idea which I got from my local game store back in NY, there is a new game out called infinity which looks fairly interesting and I was wondering if there was anyway to run a small tournament with just starter sets so people can get into the game? (i believe each starter set is like 150 pts)

This is as far as Infinity has been discussed.

There is some interest, but BG is only just getting the rulebooks and starter packs.

If this happend I would def be interested if it is starter boxes only. I really know only the basic rules and that is all my brain has room for at the moment.

Don't think started boxes are good idea; as not all the boxes are the same points value.  The Sectorial and Aleph starters are around 150-170 points each; the Combined Army is close to 200 points and the generic faction starters are at about 115.

I think a 200 point tournament would be a better starting point.

Here are some 300 pints lists that CB created with a starter box and  3-4 blisters.  They are not that expensive.

I have no plans for an Infinity tournament in the foreseeable future.
