I've sold a lot of people on Infinity as a game, and one of the questions I get asked the most is what colors work best for each faction. Now, those of us that like the standard faction color schemes for the Infinity armies will have some of the guess work taken care of for them!

⦁ The sets will be available starting in June 2019
