Infinity: Essentials - Nomads Hero, Wolfgang Amadeus Wolff

A Wulver on a payroll is a specific kind of problem for whoever is standing opposite. Wolfgang Amadeus Wolff hunts for money, brings the physiology of Ariadna's engineered lineage to the job, and ends up in Nomad and mercenary lists because those are the people willing to hire him.

This release comes from the Essentials line, Corvus Belli's repackaging of the range into current boxes, and it covers a single character rather than a squad. Characters in Infinity earn their place by doing something the rank and file cannot, and a close combat hunter changes how carefully an opponent moves through cover.

• Faction: Nomads, with mercenary availability elsewhere.
• Role: character piece for aggressive, close range work.
• Who it suits: a Nomad player rounding out a list they already own.

Supplied unpainted and unassembled in metal and resin, and a single character model makes a good painting project between larger units. Adding a named specialist assumes you have the army it goes into, so this is not the place to begin. If Infinity is new, a two player set will teach you the order system, then Wolff becomes a much easier decision.
