Halo: Flashpoint, a new skirmish tabletop game from Mantic Games, is coming Oct. 25 — and the Spartan Edition is available for pre-order now from Amazon for $124.99. (It’s also available for pre-order from Mantic Games directly for £100 / around $131.) Flashpoint is the latest in the popular skirmish genre, requiring just a few miniatures to engage in fast, fluid battle on the board. This should perk up the ears of those familiar with other hits, including Star Wars: Shatterpoint, Cyberpunk: Combat Zone, and Warhammer 40:000: Kill Team.
Flashpoint includes bigger “heroic scale” unpainted miniatures, which are downright massive compared to the minis included in previous Halo tabletop titles. How you paint them is up to you; if you’re like me, for example, maybe you’ll remake the outlandish Spartan designs you’ve created in the Halo games. Whichever path you take, if you’re in need of high-quality mini paint and supplies, let us be your guide to getting the right kit.
Polygon’s in-depth preview of the game’s ruleset left us excited to get our hands on the final product. I highly suggest checking out our preview to learn more about the moment-to-moment gameplay, which seems to replicate the tension and excitement of a Halo online multiplayer match.
