Infinity: Essentials - Nomads Booster Pack Alpha

Free of ALEPH, free of the hyperpowers, and permanently short of friends. The Nomads run their own motherships through the Human Sphere and fight with the tools that suits: hackers, unorthodox specialists and equipment the other factions would not certify. Their armies reward players who like doing things sideways.

A booster pack from the Essentials line does one job. It sits on top of a Nomads army you already own, widening the options you have when writing a list rather than replacing what is in it. If you started with an Action Pack, this is the logical second box.

• Faction: Nomads.
• Role: expands a force that already exists.
• Who it suits: an established Nomad player, not somebody buying their first Infinity box.

The miniatures arrive unpainted and unassembled in metal and resin. Infinity asks a lot of a new player early on, between the order pool, the reactive turn and hacking, so if none of that is familiar yet, a two player starter set will teach it far more gently. Once it is familiar, more list options is exactly what you want next.
