A little column A, a little column B.

Certainly artificial wombs are available to all but the poorest looking at you, Yu Jing citizens but there are still people who choose to carry a child for personal or religious reasons.
However, it is considered a human rights violation to deny the child the natal gene therapy that prevents genetic defects like Downs Syndrome.

In backwater places like Dawn it does still happen, though.

I like the setting, but not so much the skirmish game. How's the RPG though?

>>52665962
Missing three fluff chapters, but otherwise pretty much finished.

>>52665987
>Missing three fluff chapters
So, ready within the next decade?

>>52665955
Aleph, please.
Extreme poverty exists only in PanO. That's why their culture is inferior.

>>52665955
Doesn't YJ take good care of its people? Haqq and Nomads seem like they'd be the most poverty-stricken, with PanO and YJ mostly limiting it to Ateks and Japanese respectively.

>>52666011
>PanO is poor
I guess that's why they've provided twice the manpower & equipment Yu Jing has to the fight against the EI...

>>52666045
In the same way modern China takes good care of it's people.
Their lives are a coin it doesn't mind spending en mass.

>>52666074
PanO has the largest divide between the rich and the poor out of all the human nations. It is the richest as a whole but it is far from equal on an individual level. Yu Jing citizens have all their basic needs taken care of by the state so while they may have less money to spend they also won't ever starve or end up on the street.

>>52666074
Sounds like a smart move. Maybe they'll only get half as sepsitorized.

Still not sure where an AI gets off alienating its subjects, but whatever. We only really need you for Transcendence, everything else doesn't matter too much.

>>52666179
Now, now, ease up on the overly hostile tone. Ur is a civilization of peace.

So, what faction is most popular on tg?

>>52666329
Recently it seems like YJ.

>>52666329
Whatever you like. Faction tiers are very close in Infinity (and highly disputed). As for ~aesthetics~, it varies widely according to personal tastes:
>PanO for Deus Vult
>Yu Jing for Communism and Space Samurai
>Nomads for furries and assorted degenerates
>Ariadna for modern military/operators operating operationally or those who like the rules but hate anime
>Haqq for low-tech but you still wanna use the heavy armor and for delicious brown qts
>CA because sinister ayys
>Aleph because GitS
>Tohaa because...someone tell me, I haven't seen much Tohaa here lately.

>>52666459
It's been a while since I read the fluff regarding it, but the church became the biggest business, and you have to keep in mind a large portion of Pan Oceania is South American, which means a large portion of that is Roman Catholic.

>>52666459
It isn't, they're just played up cause shitposting, and Joan.

I think the last time we had a poll I remember the top choice being Yu Jing followed closely by Nomads.

>>52666534

2 ARM rolls against 14, ya freak.

>>52666513

Yeah, the Church just has its own private power armored army with TAGs and everything but otherwise it's pretty irrelevant.

>>52666391
>Tohaa because we're secretly OP but no one cares because we're not played that often.

You see comrade, it's actually just three players, one of whom happens to be 3 holoprojectors. So it may look like five, but be wary of surprises.

Where's a MSV3 when you need it?

The other 2 players have just activated their Holoprojectors too.

>>52666643
I like PanO unconditionally even though I normally hate religion-driven societies.

Say I've got a hacker with an HD+ and some repeaters out. If an enemy non-hackable unit activates in the ZOC of a repeater can I ARO a white noise down?

>>52669174
No, because White Noise cannot be used in ARO.

>>52669407
Except that its totally an ARO/Short skill.

>>52669174
I think this may have some caveats about the Hacker needing LOS. Not too sure.

>>52669512
Huh, so it is. The rulebook's programs table is fucked then.

>>52668602
They are all Sforza.

>>52669101
PanO is as religion driven as western Europe, so not thatmuch. It's just that the Church has a lot of money so they have a powerful lobby.

>>52669963
Crap, I forgot to select the option that makes you solve a captcha first. Oh well, bit late now, plus I wouldn't expect that many replies.

>>52669101
One of my buddies absolutely hates Islam and Muslims (and religion in general, but this one more than the rest), but happily plays Haqqislam and makes jokes about Ghazi blocking out signal by drowning it in Al Jazeera.

>>52670081
And has total power concerning the cubes/reincarnation.

>>52670081
No... Where the fuck do you get this idea?

The Church runs a lot of the military, too. So much so that one of the sectorials is entirely religious orders.

>>52670397
Also this.

PanO is basically a papist Crusader's wet dream.

>>52671271
Looks good. You def. have a distinct style.

>>52671842

Thanks! I'm still developing it over time but I'm getting happier with it as time goes on.

>>52671271
Dude your RED game is super on point. I really liked your WIP last thread but i think you may have over did the white highlights in a few places, like around the feet. Granted cameras can bring out all kinds of faults you wouldn't see with the naked eye and this may have a better presence on the table thanks to the contrasts.

Also interesting work on the servo muscle dotting, i do not have the patience for it so I just wash it in metallics, primary color, then darken it with something like strong tone. Everyone else I know just dry brushes that.

Fireteams: Going to try that for the first time this weekend. Buddy and I are relatively new at Infinity.

Any "Oh yeah!" rules interactions we should watch out for? It seems like that's happened to us a lot since we started, so figured I'd ask :)

>>52673233
Just read the rules section on them very thoroughly. While fire teams are very strong they have some pretty big limiting factors you need to be aware of. In terms of hard rules I mainly see people forget the 4 man link bonus of sixth sense level 2

Thanks! Some of the white around the feet is actually supposed to just be white line markings, similar to around the chest. I spent about 6 hours on this guy. For me that's a quick job, usually it's closer to 10-12 hours.

>>52671271
Can't help but feel the feet are far too light. Other than that, amazing work!

As long as there are sapient lifeforms there WILL be poverty and irrational hatred.

KILL ALL THINKERS!

Hey everyone, I've been playing PanO for a bit over half a year now, and I recently came into about 60 bucks that I'm looking to spend on some new stuff. Here's what I currently own:

1x Vanilla starter (3 Fusis, 1 Orc, 1 Akali Sikh Commando, 1 Nisse Sniper)
1x Fusilier box (4 fusis)
1x Aquila Guard
1x Swiss Guard
1x Guarda de Assalto
1x Knight Hospitaller
1x Hexa sniper
1x Auxilia box (2 auxilia, 2 auxbot)
1x Bulleteer box (2 bulleteers)
1x Mulebot box (1 mulebot 1 pathfinder)
1x Support Pack (1 doc, 1 engineer, 2 pal bots)
1x Jotum

Any recommendations to fill any gaps and add new utility? I'm not extremely interested in Military Orders, but SAA could be fun. I figure my NCA collection is mostly filled, although I plan to grab a Tik/Uhlan box on the purchase after this one.

I was thinking a Croc Man and a Sierra dronbot (TRO) box, but I'm stumped on what else to get.

>>52675075
Pathfinder isn't a mulebot, it's a dronbot. Not even the same size.

That said, dronbot box and the croc cock are both good ideas.

>>52675158
But the box is labeled as a mulebot box... Oh shit lol. I thought that the Mulebot box was a pathfinder plus Mulebot thing, with the horned one being the mule and the other the pathfinder. I don't actually own a pathfinder, neat.

Thanks though!

>>52674175
>supposed to just be white line markings
Oooh that makes sense.

Super jelly about those shades reflection effect. I always have trouble trying to do eyes so I prefer visors but thats even finer detail than what the eyes would be.

>>52675468
And if you're going to start ASA I'd suggest either the new starter or Bagh Mari box. Probably the BM box in your case since you already have an AssGuard. Nagas are important as well, or at least something that you can proxy as a Naga.

>>52673583


Thinking through on how to tackle a +3 BS, +1 B model with a HMG

You can just shoot other members and let that dude drop you too? I mean it makes both a normal roll right?

>>52666643
>Nomads are 3rd
>Tohaa are last
Why do people like fake aliens more than real ones?

>>52676333
>rubber forehead mask
>real aliens

>>52676297
If they are on the active turn yes you can shoot the other members and take normal rolls for both. Assuming your opponent lets you see the other members.

>>52676333
Tohaa are OP. That's why everyone around here stopped playing them.

>>52676530
Get good

Do hacking programs get their full burst in ARO?
Does the +1 burst fireteam bonus apply to hacking attacks?

>>52676742
No, Burst 1.

No. The bonus is to BS attacks only.

>>52676742
No.
No.

>>52676530

People who play them usually need a crutch. I find the same people who play Tohaa LOVE spec-ops too.

Lately I've been using GW spray black primer, followed by GW grey spray down from above to create the start of shadows. The rest is all hand painted with brushes with traditional methods. I was using my air brush to prime but I hate cleaning it lol

>>52676943
Kek, Tohaa really don't need a Spec Op. Taking it would only help the other side. You take the Hatail because it looks fucking sweet with the jacket and hood, proxy it as whatever. Same reason you take a Chandra in ALEPH

>>52677582
Is there any actual difference between GW spray primer and a Walmart can like rustoleum? If so, I'll swap. I've always been curious.

>>52678234
In my experience GW primer is a lot more forgiving if you put it on too thick. It just overall leaves a thinner coat and dries very fast.

I'd say it's a bit thinner and always comes out very matte. I like it for its consistency.

Ordered a whole bunch of Tohaa stuff and my local store. has ordered copies of outrage.

>>52676943
But that's were you are wrong Tohaa are fine.

>>52679177
The main problem with GW thinner is the price.

You misunderstood the statement. Though GW primer is also overpriced.

Why doesn't Haqqislam have biometric visors despite having such good biotech in the fluff, including mentions of bioscanners etc.?

I hear you man, I've ended up doing shitloads of base coats in batches.

>>52682072
Perhaps the bioscanners are used for doctors to give that extra +3 while making bio-visors could be prohibitively expensive.

My guess in a crunch is that there aren't many visor units with Haqqislam in general, to help balance out their high WIP which makes them not need it so much. It wouldn't exactly make sense to put them on Djanbazans, or Govads.

I'd guess Tunguska. Finding some punk kid your enemies fucked over and getting him to do your dirty work sounds like a Tunguska tactic, and mafia groups like to wear business suits.

What are you using it for? Defending a lane? +1. Any sort of offensive action, the other.

I'm just trying to see how I'd fit it in an ISS list.

New to PanO, been playing Ariadna for about six months, so I guess still relatively new to the game; I like the look of the Shock Army and was considering trying them out, any advice for it? I rather like Tikbalangs, and the Bagh-Mari look like a solid core link team to bring; having access to legitimite AD instead of parachutist would be fun, too. What's an example of a good 300 point list for them?

You'll have Nagas & Dasyus to go offensive sniping with, so I'd use it as a lane guard/defensive core. +1ARO for sure.

Considering what happens to the US, I'd say they are this time.

>>52689933
Nagas and Daysys aren't in ISS

No that was was an older win picture, I usually drybrush the gun a bit, anyone know how to make guns look better, İdk what to do
>>52698023
I use multiple layers of colors starting with the base color for example the orange armor has a base of orange brown (~5layer) then I use ink to darken the gaps between the plates (mostly soft ink from armypainter) after that I use scrofulus(?) brown to paint the plates again, but don't go all the way to the edges except when the armor ends there (pic, you see that I painted the bottom of all the chest armor plates, but leave the "upper parts dark"), then I brighten the same color with dead white and do the same, and the again with more white, and last I outline every armor plate with dead white,
That is how I get brightness in and still keep shadows
Did that help?

>>52698114
Seems very complicated mechanicly, would require very good hand control. But it is not like I didn't expect something like that. thank you for the explanation.

>>52698134
>>52698114
Just a tip from another anon, painting a quck layer of light pink before the orange brown gives it better coverage and an easier time getting a solid base coat.

>>52697962
Simple green works better and is a whole hell of a lot less toxic than acetone.

But you have to buy it. Meanwhile you can just borrow acetone from your wife/gf.

>>52698663
On the other side of things, Simple Green can be generally used to clean a lot of surfaces.

>>52698663
Nail polish remover is orders of magnitude more expensive per unit than a can of acetone or Simple Green. Plus, you need to keep a good relationship and not steal your partner's shit.

Haven't played the game since before 3rd edition and I'm looking to jump back in using my old Haqqislam.

How does this look? Its basically everything I own for Haqq with the exception of my Janissary and Azra-il (the old sculpts so i guess I'll leave them at home)

>>52698639
There is no simple green in Germany

>>52699229
It does, however, make it irrelevant. Otherwise I might as well use paint-eating bacteria - faster, more convenient and better for the environment.

>>52699106
IDK, seems playable for now but it looks like its missing some smoke sources to help compliment the Djanbazans (I'm chiefly thinking of Ghazi Muttawi'ah). Perhaps another mid field camo specialist like the Hunzakut FO.

Doesn't look too bad for getting back into the game, I think with some played games under your belt you'll naturally find what you might supplement your force with.

I'd suggest taking the old Azrail to be fielded as a Hassassin Ayyar, which is by far an awesome unit, especially the shock marksman option.

>>52700792
Addendum. The Ayyar is an awesome Heavy Infantry Unit that's S2 and currently doesn't have a model, which makes it a prime target to proxy with an OOP Azrail or Janissary.

I'm not that guy but I do something similar, VMC orange brown base, watered down cavalry brown to shade, scrofulous brown and white to highlight and it ends up like this. So my questions are, are you using Scorfulous brown? I'm not seeing it. I usually do it as a thin layer over the orange, not covering the recesses and mainly over where the zenith light hits.

What do you think the big summer release will be?

It was rumored to be a new 2 player starter box with comined army vs aleph

or maybe an starter box for Varuna sectorial

Or maybe Acheron Falls

>>52702548
How long did you spend on these?

Remember, that guy is painting one model, and you painted three, or what, four last night?

I think you need to slow down. I bet you aren't waiting for your paint to dry.

>>52703778
Wasn't the rumor of the first point sort of discredited, because something was said to the effect of "Aleph and Tohaa are considered advanced armies and therefore wouldn't be in an Icestorm like box?"

If anything, it'd be Ariada vs Combined Army.

Would Acheron Falls even come so "soon" after HSN3? It's been barely a year.

>>52703931

>>52703905
No, those are the models that were waiting for an aceton bath. I painted them through last week.
as for waiting for paint to dry. I do wait some time, but I do not know how much is enough normaly I have 5-6 hours between doing different stuff on different models. Sometimes longer depends on how my hands and eyes are doing on given day.

>>52703038
I do use white and orange paint from valejo, dont know it the paint is base or not. Doesn't say it on the thing. As for shade, am using sepia wash from GW. It is old but it is the only one I have.

You may need to scale back your expectations or learn techniques that make it easier for you.

>>52702565
That said, there is absolutely nothing wrong with this model. You could stand to hit it with one more highlight. If you wanted, you could touch up a few places (noticeably the butt of the rifle), but nobody would notice if that was on the table.

If the model looks good at arm's length. It's good enough or a wargame, bro.

Think impressionism rather than hyperrealism.

>>52707307
which technique is easy to do. I am nearing the end of my resilience of being the butt of jokes.

>>52707697
People are giving you perfectly reasonable advice, no one is making fun of you so don't take your frustration out on them. Watch some turotials on youtube, read turotials online, talk with painters, and then paint for a
Couple 1000 hours and see where you are after that. It takes years to become proficient at any hobby, and it will take some people longer than others. It's not a race, and being hard on your results and comparing them to others is pointless. It is a hobby about personal improvement, and that only if you want to, lots of people are happy playing the game with models that look just like yours, and I'd be perfectly happy to play against them.

>>52707697

Have you tried drybrushing? I think it's easier, and it is definitely a lot faster.

>>52707785
sorry probably my english is worse then I though. I ment the fact that people in my play group are making fun of me, because my models look bad and theirs look realy good. And by the way while I am new to infinity I have been playing table top games for over 17 years. And my paining has not improved since I started.

>>52707786
The models are dry brushed. maybe I have been doing this wrong, thinking it was dry brushing.

>>52708119
Maybe. Drybrushing takes a really dry brush and fucks up the bristles because it is so dry that you have to, really, scrub the bristles down to get the pigment off of the bristles. It ruins brushes for detail painting, but it makes it easy to hit the high edges of textured models quickly.

>>52704042
>No, those are the models that were waiting for an aceton bath.

Go with the Army Painter method - prime, bright (because wash darkens) basic colors, wash, pick a few details, base, matt varnish, done.
There's a trick to washes - put some on the palette, add a drop of glaze medium, and that'll reduce pooling (and the shitty "coffee ring" markings) by half. And remember to soak up the excess wash that's pooling before it dries.

It's fitting that it'll be in the same book where they become the saviors of humanity. Then again, I do trust CB to instead release the reworked Merovingians in AF instead and just allow the proud and loyal men and women of Rodina and the Tartary to simply fade into legend instead of actually getting rules.

Every fucking time I look at my 2nd Ed book, I just get so fucking pissed. All but few of the old Ariadna models, ours. New units, a small handful.

>>52728202
On the plus side, you are getting get all new models because your shit is old as fuck.

>>52728330
But I don't want all new models. The old Tankhunter looks much better than the new one.

Ok I know i'm being a cheap bastard, but I want to read up on the fluff and I don't overly want to spend $160 to get my hands on the books. I probably will at some point, but not when im only half sure im getting into this game (it does seem pretty sweet though).

Is there a pdf scan of the fluff parts of the physical books?

When I think Nomads, I think Ousters from Hyperion.

>>52729956
There are scans of the old 1e core and 2e Human Sphere, and the RPG's fluff section is mostly complete (missing Life in the HS, Nomads, and Human Edge). All three can be found in the "RPG previews (+ a couple scans)" link at the bottom of the OP.

>>52730055
Thanks, hadn't thought to look in that part as last I heard RPG was mostly just basic rules. Good to know thanks coming along.

>>52730145
>last I heard RPG was mostly just basic rules.
That must have been some time last year. The RPG's nearly finished now.

>>52728415
That is objectively false. I would not field Autocannon Tank Hunter purely on bad looking model, but AP HMG looks great.

>>52730173
Yeah pretty much, ive been tiptoeing around infinity for a while. Almost finished is exciting, might be able to introduce my RPG group to it.

>>52730320
All the rules are done, I believe (though v5 of the core book fucked up the layout in a couple of odd places), so you should be able to introduce it now. You'd just have to whip up a brief description for the Nomads and Human Edge.

>>52730308
Fuck off. The Autocannon is an old sculpt and is one of the best in the game, and the old AP HMG looks much better and less boring than the new one. Also, it takes away the unique look of the Tankhunters themselves and just gives them the exact same armor as Spetsnaz just with either puffy pants and no stripped shirts.

How do I into armor highlighting? I've had success painting fantasy models, but painting these models intimidates me because so far my stuff looks very flat.

>>52731049
Different armor styles call for different techniques.

>>52724827
>Haqq + Nomads + Ariadna = Best Bros
Not entirely.

Haqq has a friendly relationship with us.

The Nomads exist as a dumping ground for the worst parts of humanity, by allowing them to exist it gives the majority of the human sphere someone to look down on and feel better than.

Ariadna, however, is a mistake. By allowing them their independence, and limiting the industrial development of Dawn, the O-12 severely weakened humanity, right at a time when we will need to be at our strongest.

>>52726032
Keep dreaming. We need Tessium to make fighter craft to blockade the wormhole that the CA keep coming out of, but instead you all keep making swords and knives.

Plus, you all keep contaminating your genetic pool.

>>52730041
Nomads are explicitly inspired by the Ousters. Just like how the Hedgemony were PanO, and the Technocore is explicitly Aleph.

Hyperion is the core inspiration of Infinity that everyone forgets, or misattributes to GITS.

>>52719104

I've been using nu-forgeworld clear paints over a metallic base, and then painting the under suit. It works really well for stuff like yu jing heavy infantry and pano, who feature a significant surface area of armor plates that you may want to look pretty uniform across the collection. If you have an airbrush it's a good time, and an easy ish way to get a significant amount of an infinity collection done quickly.

>>52732031
>Hyperion is the core inspiration of Infinity that everyone forgets

Meh, its just core for the in universe interstellar politics politicing. Most of the regular rule of engagements and technoporn are inspired by Shirow and Otomo's works at best, so those "misattribute" are understanable since it was soo deep, even down to the aesthetic.

Also, how do you explain Yu Jing, Haqqs, and Ariadnans?

No fucking way I'm converting one of the most iconic models. He's gonna get left as standard.

Is there any way to have more control over your characters backstory in the infinity RPG? It just seems super technical with points and every little thing giving you a bonus, "give them more points" seems the obvious answer, but it doesnt make it less combersome.

Also, what scale of power are characters supposed to be at? I saw some awesome concept art of a hexa being healed by a dactari, but it seems they want to start characters more on a bum level than actual experienced soldiers. Kind of a rogue trader vs deathwatch thing?

>>52740579

Speaking as someone about to run a game of it, characters seem pretty on the level for badasses; but you have to remember the game's genre is more, say, shadowrun than deathwatch; the 'generic' campaign is a bunch of bureau noir agents doing spy and sneaky things, lots of espionage and black operations stuff going on; my PCs are effectively a tomcat doctor, a devil dog, a reverend custodier (slash gecko pilot), thamyris the aoidos, and an odalisque, and I feel like each of them very well lives up to their inspiration unit, with plenty of room to grow into legitimate, 'would be a named character on the tabletop' badasses. I have some houserules to help along; the most notable one is no rolling for alien race, but giving all my PCs 3 extra life points that they can spend to be a dog warrior, or during step nine to increase stats, as well as through the character creation process normally, which helped a lot.

Finally, if you want more control, just go with the point buy option; 15 LP and go.

>>52740579
The way it is set up and from what I glanced through the rulebook; the events can be rearranged at the end of character generation to make a more coherent story. The tables are really there for minimal work for the players to pick up a new character and run with them.

Granted I think the online character generator is borked as I was able to churn out a character with obscene close combat stats and skills, something like 18 Agility and Brawn. I think it keeps adding stats for every career path you take.

Get a baggage bot in there to reload all those panzerfausts. Also a cheap order from a Warcor would do you well as well.

>>52743306
Not sure about starting the game with 7 orders, even with the link. No high burst gun either, who are you expecting to do most of your killing?

I got some more word done this weekend, started on this govad with HMG

>>52744639
Very nice

So a Su Jian takes two structure damage right? At that point he gains an unconsciousness token. I activate no-wound unconsciousness and keep trucking.

I get into another firefight and the su Jian takes another STR damage, obtains a second unconsciousness token, and I use no wound unconsciousness to keep trucking right? The next STR damage actually kills the Su Jian?

>I get into another firefight and the su Jian takes another STR damage, obtains a second unconsciousness token, and I use no wound unconsciousness to keep trucking right?
No. You can't activate NWI while already in the NWI state. If a unit takes a hit while NWI is active, it dies no matter what.


However if it chose not to activate NWI after those first two hits and the enemy dealt a third damage point while it was lying there (or if it just took 3 damage in one go) then you could activate NWI from the second unconsciousness state.

>>52746301
That's not how NWI and remote presence interact. When you lose 2 STR you go unconscious. You can either go NWI, stay up but die on the next hit, or go normal unconscious, where you can take another level of unconscious and either stay there or use the second unconscious to go NWI.

There's a difference between people of different ethnicities and different species.

Wulvers, like mules, are a genetic dead end.

If you had any understanding of biology you'd realize that.
All we care about is preserving HUMANITY. No alien species matters.

>>52746512
Ok, so what's the advantage of staying down as opposed to standing back up?

Does it give you a chance to save the Su Jian with an engineer?

>>52746762
that is indeed the reason for the option, yes.

I'm having trouble finding out how much your opponent can know about your lists.

Do they get to know what models you have in your list (not who is the lieutenant though)?
Do they get to know what models you have as camo markers or TO camo markers?

>>52747518
In the army builder you have the Courtesy List option (the little smiley face).
Click it and it will print a PDF of a list as your opponent sees it.

To quickly answer your question:
>Do they get to know what models you have as camo markers or TO camo markers?
Not until they are revealed during the game. They are not shown in the Courtesy List.

>>52747546
Ok sweet. About to buy some camo tokens and it got me curious.

Tomorrow is the day when Yuan and Manga gets send out. What will you do with yours?

>>52748314
Manga? Read and see if I could scan it without breaking the book apart.

Is she supposed to be holding something (left hand)?

>>52665900
She could just go around that boulder.

>>52748314
>spanish manga with tabletop setting where only lore so far was raw faction descriptions and some unit-specific campaigns

scans or GTFO

>>52747518
Private information (stuff your opponent doesn't need to know about until its reveal):

Which unit(s) have Chain of command

The units and loadouts of AD troops

The units and loadouts in hidden deployment.

The units and loadouts of units in the camouflaged state

The loadouts of holoprojector troops (remember that with Holo L2 you can also disguise, so its often wise to disguise the profile a bit to keep surprises, like saying a Kanren KHD is a FO)

>>52748718
It is a thumbs down gesture

>>52748314
Assemble and paint the models, read the Manga and book, and share the Manga with a friend.

Wulvers might be sterile, but Dogfaces can breed true. Given they're born of human mothers and raised in human communities and fight alongside human soldiers to defend human lands against alien threats, Dogfaces can basically be considered humans with a unique, genetically inherited ability.

>>52749856
Yet another reason to not trust Aleph. What happens when Big Brother decides you aren't sufficiently human for it's tastes?

Why didn't you update the links with the new useful wiki/cataloge? I was doing it, but I saw you posted before I did.

>>52751518
Well sorry :/
Make sure to repost those links and maybe next time the OP will remember.

>>52751542
Yeah, I liked the page because it was like the catalogue, but better, and also officially "ok"ed by CB if the resource creator was telling the truth.
