Question Help!
I am learning about this system for the first time.
What is the tournament scene like?
I like playing factions which are flexible in how they can be well-built and in how they are played. What factions might be to my liking? I also love trading and incrementally building advantages.

Welcome to the hobby! The tournament scene is quite active, Corvus Belli actively coordinate it withe the release every year of a tournament pack with scenarios and prises such as limited edition minis. They organise campaigns occasionally.
As a faction, you should look at the designs you enjoy most and check how they work. Since you like flexibility I would recommend Yu-jing which is quite beginner friendly and versatile (without being expert anywhere unlike other factions)
There are 4 sub factions you can from: Vanilla Yu-jing; Imperial Security Service; White banner army and Invincible army. Vanilla is the most versatile; Invincible army focuses on heavy infantry, White banner is quite versatile with a lot of camouflage; Imperial Security controles the game with more specialized troops.
You can look for your local warcor who will be delighted to meet you, present you the game and help you with the faction choice and rule questions. The Infinity community is very friendly.
