Ok first the rapport and because I'm really salty don't expect fluff or anything : I lost no question asked.

TURN 01
TARTARY
- Streloks mines terrain while prone or hidden along the middle line.
- Line Kazakh Missile fireteam fire at Zuyiong missile launcher, no effect (zu yong fire as well, no effect)
Zhanying Aro kill missile Kazakh.
- Fireteam reformed around HMG who fire at Zuyiong AND Zhanying. Miss but Zhanying sent into space by hull breach, and Zuyiong kills the whole fireteam in one blast.
- Vassily fires at Zuyiong, miss, and is killed by hull breach.

YU JING
- Kuang Shi advances, two dies from mines. Another advance with celestial guard and the celestial guard is sent to space with hull breach while firing at Strelok K9
- Kuang Shi 3 advances and kill with chain rifle the Strelok K-9 who fail to dodge.
- The rest of the Zanshi and other advances. Overwatch from other Zhanying on the other side, locking the field (enemy is prone).
- Zuyiong exchange lots of fire with Scout. Kills him (which create retreat and loos of game for Ariadna)
TARTARY Retreat and abandon field of battle.
Yu Jing Victory.

But I'm really salty, not against my opponent (I've lost and won who knows many game accross multiple game systems with Thorongil that I dont care anymore, beautiful table & nice painted minis that's my moto), but why so salty ?

Im salty cause I had the feeling that game stole me a rare opportunity of fun. I don't play often and can't play often so when I play (again winning or losing is beyond the point) I want to have fun and relax (that's why I never go to tournament and to be clear I surely did a lot of mistakes' again).

BUT, Infinity, as much I love the minis and the lore (own like 300 pts of each army just for the love of the minis) I despise the rules altogether, just badly overcomplicated rules. Each games I have to spend hours just to remind me this kind of obscure set of sub rules well hidden in a sub sub sub rule of a sub rule...

It 's too much, the game mistakes depth for complexity and add complexity for the sake of complexity. Maybe I'm not competitive enough but that's just not a game for me.

At least when I lost at ToH, MG or X-Wing or 40K, I have the feeling that I had fun.

Here, I just got wiped on my turn 1 aaaaaaand that's it. no fun no nothing. turn 1 and end of the game...

Well during the time we played that turn one getting lost in all the confusing sub rules we could have played two fun game of Mortal Gods.

Maybe I'm a noob or whatever and you know who cares but I'm at a time where good time with friends are rare and not to be spoiled.

That's my feeling after that game and I'm frankly not sure there will be another.

And remember whatever the result we play fair :)

And now back to normal mood but maybe not to Infinity altogether.
