Demo game of Infinity Code One 

I’m almost at that moment myself 😂

@@the_infinitygamer 😂

Thank you Rob, always appreciate the feedback 😁

How did the game go?

Thank you! Hope a few people thinking of the game find it 😄

This is true!

Do glad it helped!! Hope you can get some more games in to test your knowledge.

That would have been a good little addition. Great suggestion!

Thank you!!

Thank you, I do appreciate it!

Maybe! I have an N4 battle report in the works and will remember to tone down the drums.

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.

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.

You don’t get interrupted. Your movement will be completed then your opponent declares an ARO. You then respond to that ARO with your second short skill. Does that help?

Thank you for the feedback! The buildings are from Brutal Cities and the mats are from Deep Cut Studios I believe.

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. 😅😁

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

Could not agree more! I’ve been burned by Noctifers too many times to ever consider shooting then moving but it is still good to have that option!

Code One is absolutely the best way to get new players into the game. Hands down. Yes using lockdowns and restrictions is a great way to get the models painted so newcomers fall in love with them too!

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!

It should be the same as N4 rules which I think is active player only on it but I could be wrong.

Yes must be in the active turn, Code One page 77

Thanks all! We weren’t sure at the time and didn’t have the rules handy to check. As it didn’t affect the outcome we kept it in. This is the downside of playing models with abilities you never use on camera 😂

Thanks for clarifying! Luckily didn’t impact the game and I should remember that for next time 😄

@@the_infinitygamer thank's you for the video! I love Code1 because it's more friendly and fast, so every video about it is appreciate!

The mat does but the buildings shown in the video are from Brutal Cities. The terrain that comes in the starter sets are really good though!

It’s Brutal Cities terrain 😃

Hahaha yup! That's how these games go. You feel like you're playing in some epic war story.

Too much?

@@the_infinitygamer It's a tough call. A Caliban would be a nicer choice to display close combat with but camouflage could be frustrating for a new player. Would you drop Achilles in a first time game? Or playing into the HeroHammer thing?

I was thinking Caliban but already had 2 camo tokens. I definitely didn’t use Sheskiin to her full potential 😆

@@the_infinitygamer Never underplay a model's capabilities.

That is from Brutal Cities 😃

No they’re from Brutal Cities 😀

I take it you mean that you can’t apply surprise attack in ARO? As it very much affects AROs.

Sorry I don’t think I do!

Code One is pretty simple. It’s just very different to other war games which are heavily turn based so it looks more complex than it actually is.

Trust me, you'll figure it out. It looks more complicated than it truly is. Most of the confusing stuff could be boiled down onto 1 cheat sheet.

You’re completely right

It is not that complex. If you ever played X-Com: Enemy Unknown/Within from Firaxis, you'd instinctively grasp most of the things.

@@stepanserdyuk4589 not played them sorry. But thanks for taking the time to reply.

You’re completely right. Every so often a global narrative will play but you’re right there isn’t a campaign options for infinity. Personally I thinks it’s a weakness of the game. I’d love to be playing out some of the great battles across the Human Sphere!

Hahahaha seems to be the way New Zealand does it!

@@the_infinitygamer ah, didn't realise you were in NZ. Great video, my mate and I are just getting into C1 with a view of getting into N4 once we have mastered the basics

Everything’s upside down here. That’s brilliant have you both chosen factions yet?

@the_infinitygamer he's gone ariadna and I've everything apart from combined and 0-12. Been a collector for a while.

@jonesyjones8465 hahaha wow well at least you have options!

Might have to dust them off a bit more often to be fair.

@@the_infinitygamer Waiting for my Beyond box to fill my roster.

You only really need camo tokens 😜

You’re probably right and while that wasn’t the best thing for a video that opponent loves 40k and the ‘gotcha’ elements there so I probably played to his style too much.

Hahaha I’m not going to pass judgement as mine is atrocious!

😂
