An Obligatory Teaser Post

An Obligatory Teaser Post The Picture is for ambiguous teasing puproses only, and is provided by Corvus Belli.   Hello all! I'm terribly sorry that I haven't been able to dedicate more time for the blog of late, but rest assured that it's never too far from my mind! While I have some more "traditional RTF stuff" in the works in the longer term, today is not about that! Some acute readers may recall me agonizing over how to provide you with high quality Battle Reports with reprisentation from both parties involded, and also on how I could help other great Voices in the community get heard... Now it finally seems that I - or rather We - might have an answer ready! If everything goes to plan there will be some totally new kind of content coming your way soon! And with that nice and vague teaser, it's time to say once more... Until the next time - I wish you the very best in leading the Swift and Deadly Spear of the Haqqislamite Army to Victory!

WIP12 Podcast Ramah Taskforce Episode - With Yours Truly as One of the Guests!

WIP12 Podcast Ramah Taskforce Episode - With Yours Truly as One of the Guests! Hello everyone! I'm excited that I can finally share the news with you all; Raymond (AKA Cabaray ) was kind enough to have me on the WIP12 Infinity Podcast to talk about RTF with Jonathon (AKA ivoryronin ) and boy did we have some things to talk about! Have a listen yourself, and feel free ask any questions that the episode might raise by for example commenting below! I have to preface the discussion we had by stating that this time around is was deliberately sitting in my " very competitive player chair " and thus my bar for what's great and what's not was higher than usual - but this doesn't mean that I'd changed my mind on many units per se, it's just that I was taking a different approach from my usual outlook for this one! Also don't take my criticisms on some of the units and Fireteams too seriously either ; after recording the episode I felt my creative juices ...

In Search of Wisdom - My First Thoughts on RTF and ITS14

IN SEARCH OF WISDOM - My First Thoughts on the RTF and ITS14 In this series I reflect on the game of Infinity, as well the place of Ramah Taskforce in it.   I wrote an article like this one a year ago, so you should know what to expect - a combination of hot'n'cold takes on how the newest Organized Play Season of Infinity will effect our beloved Good Guys and Gals wearing Orange shoulder patches! Here we go!   Thunderclapping It  The ITS14 Season is named " Thunderclap " - the Combined Army 's armada has dealt the Cerberus Blockade above Consilium Prima a thunderous blow, and now it's time for the Factions of the Human Sphere to mount a lightning counter attack! The beginning of a new year of ITS not only means changes in the list of Missions available for competitive play and the shift of the global (and maybe to a lesser extend, the local) meta due to the new Special Rules introduced by the story, but it also marks the passing of some of the things that...

A Quick Word on the Progress of Article Updates

A Quick Word on the Progress of Article Updates Hello everyone!   I just wanted to let everyone know that the blog is still alive and well, and I've been using the majority of my writing time of late to update all of my Unit Focus Articles (as well as most of my other stuff) to reflect the changes brought about by the N4 Fireteam Update, as well as some of the things I've learned since originally posting the pieces. As a result of my progress, I've now removed the "Update Completed" tags from those texts that are up to date, and I've instead marked the articles that still require some form of re-writing. I'm committed to providing you with new original Ramah Taskforce content in the near(ish) future, so stay tuned! Happy gaming everyvbody! Until the next time - I wish you the very best in leading the Swift and Deadly Spear of the Haqqislamite Army to Victory!

After Action Report #3 - Operation Astral Tears

AFTER ACTION REPORT #3 - Operation Astral Tears I wasn't planning on taking part in the Durgama Takeover Online Campaign, and even less so planning on writing Battle Reports for it. However, one night I chanced upon the most nice gentleman who introduced himself as Asura Amari on the Campaign website, and he was looking for a TTS game. After our game I noticed that the website would reward my Opponent further if I also wrote down my part of the game. I figured this would be a two birds with one stone type of deal, so I ended writing this Report for both the Durgama Takeover Campaign and the Good Guys Wear Orange! As I wasn't planning of making this report to begin with, I originally did't take any pictures - which meant that I had to go back and recreate the battle from memory to get what I needed. All this is a long winded way of saying that this After Action Report is going to one of a lighter variant told only from my perspective - you can read Asura Amarin's versi...

After Action Report #2 - Operation Dead Man's Hand

AFTER ACTION REPORT #2 - Operation Dead Man's Hand In this series I join forces with my Opponents in order to try and present play-by-play Battle Reports from both players' perspectives simultaneously.   Disclaimer! Please note that the game you're about to read about was played prior to the N4 Fireteam update of March 2022.   The Second Time Around Thank you everyone who've given comments on the first After Action Report article ( Operation Unrelenting Facade ); your support and interest means a lot to me! I'm eager to see where future pieces of this series will take us!   Recently my buddy GtotheM contacted me and volunteered himself to not only playing with me, but to also co-writing a Battle Report from our game for the blog! I didn't have a preference for the Mission this time around, so my friend picked Countermeasures - my favorite! Due to the physical distance between us, we ended up playing the game on Tabletop Simulator ; let's hope the digital...

In Search of Wisdom - My First Thoughts on the N4 Fireteam Update and RTF

IN SEARCH OF WISDOM - My First Thoughts on the N4 Fireteam Update and RTF In this series I reflect on the game of Infinity, as well the place of Ramah Taskforce in it.   Corvus Belli just released the much anticipated N4 Fireteam update , as well as updates tn some of the units and unit profiles that are part of Ramah Taskforce . Obviously figuring out the effects of these changes will take time and there should be a marked shift in the Infinity Meta in the following months as people work to realize the potential of their Factions, as well as strive to counter the most dangerous combinations that will start taking to the battlefields of the Human Sphere. Nevertheless, I feel that a premilinary analysis on what the update could mean for RTF should be in order! The Time of the Immortals Has Come! As previously communicated to us by Corvus Belli, in the brave new post update world gaining the full Fireteam Bonuses will require formation of homogenious squads . After a premiliminary l...
