Understanding O-12
Introduction to the Human Sphere’s Tactical Police Branch
The Human Sphere, can be a chaotic place. To maintain order and enforce justice across the stars, a powerful governing body was established: the O-12. Evolving from the familiar United Nations of Earth’s past, the O-12 holds far greater autonomy.
Acting as the arbiter, judge, and jury of interstellar disputes, the O-12 fulfills a critical role. It safeguards weaker nations from exploitation and prevents the strong from abusing their power.
To uphold these principles, the O-12 is equipped with a dedicated tactical police branch – Bureau Aegis – a force known for its elite operatives and unwavering commitment to justice. Furthermore, the O-12 exerts control over all international systems deemed essential for the smooth operation of the Human Sphere.
In essence, the O-12 stands as a beacon of stability amidst the interstellar squabbles, ensuring the Human Sphere can continue to thrive.

Winning with O-12
Strategies for Victory
The O-12 are humanity’s elite enforcers, renowned for their exceptional training in Bureau Aegis and advanced equipment. This translates into a strategic approach that emphasizes control and tactical maneuvering.
Here’s how to leverage Infinity O-12’s strengths to dominate the battlefield:
Utilize High Control: O-12’s strength lies in their ability to manipulate the flow of the game. Focus on deploying units with Infiltration and Camouflage skills to gain early map presence and disrupt your opponent’s plans. This dominance in troop positioning allows you to dictate engagements and claim strategic objectives.
Leverage Advanced Deployment: With access to skills like Forward Deployment and Airborne Insertion, O-12 can strategically place key units behind enemy lines or in critical locations. Use this to your advantage to launch surprise attacks, secure vital objectives, or cut off enemy reinforcements.
Deny Your Opponent: Remember, tempo is key in Infinity. By controlling the battlefield through smart deployment, infiltration, and objective denial, you can severely limit your opponent’s options. Force them to react to your maneuvers, disrupting their strategy and ultimately leading to their downfall.
By mastering these core principles, you can transform your Infinity O-12 force into a well-oiled machine of law and order, ensuring victory across the battlefields of the Human Sphere.
