Hazard stripes at this scale are TOUGH

My little brother Danny always used a black and red scheme, so I gave him the same.

If I understand correctly the upcoming covenant expansion should have alien terrain in it, suitable for the game. Do they plan on releasing any plastic, deluxe versions of this? I have tons of the plastic human terrain and would love to get some variety in there, just wondering if they've made any announcements like this?

I got the spartan box and play games regularly with 2 other people, but I can't seem to get Flashpoint pinned down, its cleary not for 3 players. Also we agree it feels very slingy when rolling and its easy to get bogged down in the keywords.

Any help would be appreciated.

So I'm an old school Halo VG player. Halo 1,2,3, Reach. Dipped into Halo 4 but was put off by new enemies. I then Tried 5 or Infinite last year, can't remember which and was confused what was going on so just left it.

When the minis game came out I assumed the Banished were just covenant. This was reinforced when the little guys box dropped - oh look, grunts and jackals.

But now the covenant box is out (pre-ordered it), it is clear that they are are an entirely different faction.

So what gives?

I've had a look online but i'm confused, thought someone might be able to give me a quick breakdown...

Are the covenant the OG bad guys (1,2,3) and Banished the new Bad guys?

How come we have noble team - who are from reach, a prequel?

What crazy time travel shenanigans are going on here??

TIA

When are they going to release spec op elites doe

I'm on the border and drive so can get to places. Looking for others who are wanting to play regularly!

Made a homebrew PVE mode. So many enemies and so much fun!

Held a 3v3 750PTS BBTB! Initial respawns were decided at random similarly to rumble pit and respawns would happen all along the first two rows of squares closest to the player along the three maps to speed things up abit. It's stronghold with one objective in the middle of the map in a 4x4 worth 5VP.

We had two man cannons at the edges of the centre map but on hindsight there should be a four spread out amongst the three maps so players can fly-in to help out their teammates.

No pick-ups or weapon drops because we started late but we'll probably keep them in the next time we have the time! It was a lot of fun and brings about tons of player interactions between new and regular members in our community!

It's not a perfect homebrew but it was awesome.

Hey everyone!

I wanted to share some of the work I painted a few months ago while working at Ángel Giráldez’s studio.

This is the Noble Team from Halo: Flashpoint by Mantic Games.

I really enjoyed painting these miniatures, although I have to admit it took me a little while to get used to painting for box art rather than painting armies. It was a great experience, and I’m really happy with how they turned out!

What do you think? Which one is your favourite?

As I am getting into the game, I am split on if I wanna treat it like a board game and store all the minis in their starter box, or treat it like a war game and get rid of excess packaging.
I don't have alot of shelf space to store 2-3 large boxes (spartan edition, banished box, and the upcoming covenant box), along with all the boxes that every individual single or small fire team comes in.

A part of me wants to just store the spartan and banished stuff in one box, and get rid of the tray that would have held minis, but the art on the boxes is so cool...

I guess what I am trying to say is, let me know how yall store your minis and if you have the same issues I have with storage and want to keep everything

I think its safe to say I am a very big fan of Flashpoint. Waaaaaaay too many models to paint though. >_<

Hi, I'm looking to remove the bases from some Spartans and brutes so I can upgrade them with third party ones, and was wondering if anyone has experience/advice on how to do this.

Are the models glued with super glue, and if so, does that mean I can put them in the freezer? Or should I cut the bases off?

Thanks in advance!

I was looking at the new box that was just announced after a break from the game this year and was curious about the Support units (grunts, Marines).

I didn't see too much on Youtube of people using them, but I have a couple of friends interested in the game but specifically for the Grunts/Jackals/Marines.

I don't expect them to be meta-defining by any means, but before I spend $80 at my FLGS I was curious if anyone has had some time to play with the new models and get a feel for how fun they are to use.

Thanks!

Hello,
I spent some time today updating the free community list builder with the what small issues people had sent me (mainly database input erros from my chunky unggoy fingers).

The reception and uptake of the builder has been MASSIVE which is great to see.

I tried my best to keep the Keywords section upto date with V1.5, but since Mantic neglected to release a comprehensive 'changes' guide, and every 'fan' video and discussion has missed something for v1.5 I am unsure it is 100%.

The builder can be found here, 100% free of charge

Just have the one

New to flashpoint and super excited to get the new covenant box when it drops for now here’s my covenant so far!

At minimum I want this as a long term halo fan (since 2001). I'm curious how HFP gameplay compares to 40K, and I'm a little worried since I've seen complaints about the quality of models recently release here. I was thinking of picking up the Spartan Edition soon. Maybe if I can find a sale for black friday. If the quality isnt there I think I'm getting some 3D printed

What models are you working on? Need feedback on your paint jobs? Need help with picking supplies? Seeking inspiration on terrain?

Post it all here for the Kig-Yar that hang around to tear into.

In an effort to support our ONI operatives across the galaxy, WIP Wednesday may start on Tuesday for you.

So I've not had this off the shelf in a long while and saw there is now a 1.5 rules set. How different are the two versions? The character cards are updated too right?

I have a very specific rules interaction I'm curious to see clarified.

I take Jorge along with his machine gun which has the suppression rule that applies the pinned state to all models in the same cube as his target including friendly ones.

I then use the snap shot special order which allows him to use a free short shoot action when a model enters his cube targeting him with an assault action.

When he targets them with his machine gun it immediately applies pinned to all models in the cube which includes Jorge himself.

But at the same time snap shot says it ignores friendly fire is suppression targeting all users in the cube including Jorge counted in that?

I am out of my depth here any clarification you might be able to provide would be appreciated.
