Spec Ops Models

As I was sitting and quietly nerding out about the changes to Infinity last night I set about to do some research. The most exciting new feature for me are the new Spec-Ops avatars.

Each player gets one Spec-Ops model in their army that represents them on the battlefield. In a way Spec-Ops models are like player characters in an RPG. Just like in a RPG these characters gain experience and can learn to use new skills, weapons and equipment.

Every army in the game will be getting at least one Spec-Ops model, which will each be able to be customized to fit into any of the sectorial armies. From what I have been able to tell, every Spec-Ops model will come with at least 2 heads, and at least 2 sets of arms. It appears that the arm sets will either attach at the forearms or elbows, making them easy to detach or magnetize. From the pictures I've seen and articles I've read most of the Spec-Ops models will have neutral poses that will make them easier to convert.






The Spec-Ops models confirmed so far are:

Indigo Agents (PanO)

Intel (Ariadna)- Pictured above.

Gui Feng (Yu Jing)- I think this translates as either "Wind Soldier" or "Ghost Wind", but I don't speak Chinese. Also pictured here.

Husam (Haqqislam)- Arabic for "Sword".

Vortex Operative (Nomads)

Treitak (Morat)

Corax Agent (Shasvastii)- Latin for "Crow".

Chandra (Aleph)- Chandra is the Hindu god of the moon, and in Vedic stories is the god of the mind and emotions.

Kaplan Tactical Services (Mercenary)- I'm not sure about this one yet, this is just a rumor. This model will definitely exist, but it may just be a new unit and not a Spec-op.

The last photo here shows off some of the alternate heads and weapon arms that will be available for the Intel and Gui-Feng.
