March 8, 2024 by avernos
It's OTTWeekender time! The first miniatures have been revealed for Mantic Games' Halo: Flashpoint miniatures game. Are Mantic on to a winner with their newly announced tabletop miniatures game which pits Spartans against Spartans in classic Halo multiplayer battles?
We discuss the look of the new miniatures, some more of the news that was revealed during the preview AND look ahead to some dos and don'ts when it comes to where we'd like Mantic Games to go next with Halo: Flashpoint. Bring on the Covenant and The Flood...and avoid those bunny ears!
