Fab...... the game look fab  :-*  :o

A goodly playful write up. Lovely to see a very good looking game in  15mm too.  8) (Perhaps I'm still haunted by the guys at my old club playing DBM on felt hills?)

Oh, and man I'm dying to roll some dice!  o_o

Thank you, I am glad you enjoyed the AAR. It was a good game and having played DBA (and seen the state of some of the tables people use...) I can tell you that Infamy is nothing like it. It's a far more dynamic game overall.

Oh, I know. I first became Infamy at Vappa. What a lovely set up it was.

I've watched all the vids Rich has uploaded to Youtube and i'm dying to play a game. Unfortunately, I'm in full shield mode so it will have to wait a little while :)

Sheildwalling is an honourable position. Have you seen the Virtual Lard events? There were a couple of games of Infamy at those and I think it's something that will be happening again soon.

No, I only heard about them whilst belatedly listening to the Oddcast..... I'll make an effort to jump into the next one though will likely avoid the "pub" :)

Being a wee bit lazy in asking but is the lowdown for this on the on the Oddcast or the forum?

I knew about it from Twitter, so I am not sure where else it is advertised, but I'd check the forum as well
