I take a 40k player through their first game of Infinity Code One. This demo game explains every phase, option and step we each make in this real game.
As this Warhammer 40k player gives Infinity a try I explain the game and answer his questions. So come and watch if you're keen to see what Infinity is like to play through the eyes of a complete newcomer.

Found this really helpful. I know code one isn't going to be sticking around for N5, but it still gave me an idea of some of the key components of the game. I've ordered my 1st purchase the other day of morat aggression action pack and the bakunin action pack to get hobbying, so when N5 comes out, I can get started on my infinity adventure. Finf your channel is really informative, useful & good fun also.

One other thing to note. Critical hits with Double Action (DA) Ammunition cause the target to make an additional Saving Roll. So should have been 3 saves not 2.

I know this is an old video BUT (for anyone new and watching), you CAN shoot for your first half of an action and then move for the second half. you just can't shoot then dodge as a reaction to an aro for example. I mention this as at 20:10 you sad he can idle instead of move then shoot (which he can) BUT he could have shot and then moved, he just wouldn't have been able to use his second action to react to the aro. Basically you can: move + short skill OR short skill + move OR move + move but NOT short skill + short skill. short skill being dodge, shoot, pick up etc. 😁

@the_infinitygamer Жыл бұрын
You absolutely can. I generally don’t teach that as it can create some awkward interactions. Also, the N4 FAQ clarified that you can’t declare a BS attack to a model you can’t see and then second short skill move to see it. That’s where I saw a lot of people declare shoot first then move. Otherwise there are very few instances where declaring BS attack then moving is the better option.

@@the_infinitygamer ah yes, obviously the main way i’d use it would be to shoot a valid target then move out of sight if possible. 😅😁
@the_infinitygamer
@the_infinitygamer Жыл бұрын
Absolutely! But with ‘everything happening at once’ you could also move out of LOF with your first short skill and shoot with your second. At least by moving first you know all the targets you’re facing and can decide what to shoot. If you declare your BS attack on a target first, then move, there’s a risk of a hidden trooper revealing that you now can’t shoot because you’ve declared your action.

@@the_infinitygamer Obviously that will depend on the position of other models/camo tokens but THAT is what i love about this game, it's so much more tactical than anything else BECAUSE of the "all at once" thing, you really have to think about your order and how you play them AND your opponents ARO's

I have N3, but find it difficult to get new players into the game. Seems like I should get CodeOne, since it´s easier to get new players into. I have had a love for Infinity since I got my hands on Operation Icestorm when it came out, but in my area there are no Infinity-players. It´s mostly Warhammer around here, so I should try to include some Infinity as well. And with the social distancing these days, I have a lot of time to get Kaldstrøm painted and ready. CB will be getting a lot of my wallet forwards. Need the N4-rules too.

There's a good point made at 26:35 that I completely missed. You have to declare the Short Movement Skill first, the Short Skill second. The 'vice versa' on page 22, bottom left corner, third bullet point only applies when you declare two Short Movement Skills. It's all simultaneous, but the declaration order is the thing.
@eteffeau
@eteffeau 2 жыл бұрын
That's incorrect. You short movement and short skill can be in either order. The vice versa applies to that, not the two short movement line. It's just almost always better to do movement then short so you can see what aro's are going to be before declaring your short.
@the_infinitygamer
@the_infinitygamer 2 жыл бұрын
Exactly. You can shoot then move etc but it’s rarely the better option. Moving before any other short skill gives you options for range and helps you see what incoming AROs are coming.

I've played N3 but only at home with my Son. Operation icestorm with the full N3 rules and experimenting with proxy..... on the surface, I cant see what makes Code One simpler aside from missing a few extra options/rules. Is that it or am I missing something? Love the content BTW!
@the_infinitygamer
@the_infinitygamer 3 жыл бұрын
You’re welcome! A few things I noticed were fewer nested rules. If a unit gets a bonus it says the bonus on the profile. Dodge +3 for example rather than, say, Kinematica in N3. As a newcomer having the trait and buff on the profile means you’re not having to remember dozens of words and the associated perks. Dodges getting the 2” move regardless of whether it’s your active turn or not was nice as it simplified the mechanic. IIRC camo got mimetism built in on N3 while now a unit can have camo but not mimetism. It’s on the profile if it has something not hidden 4 layers deep in the wiki. That’s just my perspective but I also appreciate some people don’t struggle with complexity like I do!

Cool video that has finally cured me out of Infinity... Too much of a technical game for my taste, and not bearing any legacy (as in not telling any story, besides the mission brief). I believe a little disclaimer is in order: I'm a die hard RPG player, that had just recently rediscovered his love for miniature gaming (after playing the s**t out of Mordheim back in the 90's) Correct me if I'm wrong on that, but there is no "campaign" mode in Infinity is there? It's just one of those "resource" based game (as in man fire power resource) is it?

If I get interupted in moving in the 1st short skill by an ARO, is the BS attack of both player part of the ARO and after I need to finish my move to the end. And then I can spend my 2nd short skill? Or is the BS attack from the oponent ARO part of my 2nd skill? In the manual on page 37 is the example. That means I need to spend my 2nd skill while I did not finished my 1st skill?
