Wave 2 Pre-Orders & Wave 1 Second Printing
4th Oct 2024
Dan Mapleston
Welcome back everyone and oh, have we got an update for you today...
Since we revealed the Starter Sets, we've had lots of gamers asking to see what's coming next. We also know that many of you want to know that this is going to be a proper system with lots of support, and not simply a one-off boxed game, before jumping in.
We've been listening, and we're ready to share the good news. Of course it is!
Wave 2 Pre-Orders
Let's pull back the curtain on just what you'll be playing with in Q1 2025.
There's a whole bunch of exciting new releases, spread across January to March...take it away Andy!
Let's Recap
The Banished are coming next year, and they're hard as nails.
So before they arrive we're going to crack open the Spartan armoury, break out the big guns, and let you fine-tune your fireteams.
Get ready for new weapons, new armour, and fireteam customisation that goes far beyond the starter set's drafting system.
The War Games Expansion contains a booklet that's your passport to advanced team-building, with points values for every mini released in the game to that point. You'll also get a bunch of new game cards, and a fireteam of four new miniatures equipped with Mark V [B] armour and fearsome loadouts including the Concussion Rifle, Energy Sword and more. Perfect as your first step in trying out some new team builds and synergies!
Fireteam Cerberus introduces another set of powerful new weapons such as the Gravity Hammer, and you can add these minis to your games using the customisation options in the War Games Expansion.
If you've ordered a Recon Starter Set, Fireteam Hydra lets you recruit the Spartan variants previously exclusive to the bigger starter box. No Spartan gets left behind!
You'll also be able to bring your War Games arena to life with new plastic terrain, neoprene play mats, and more...
Are we done? Of course not! The Master Chief Paint Set is also coming to retail, along with our first Organised Play pack.
It's time to thrash your mates at Slayer (AGAIN) and lay claim to both bragging rights and some very fancy deluxe tokens!
Wave 1 Second Printing
With the November launch stock on the sea and on the way, we want to make sure that anyone who didn't grab a starter set when they were first revealed can get started with Halo: Flashpoint. We don't want anyone to miss out that wants to join in the fun!
And that means we're getting set for another print run ALREADY...
While it feels odd to be heading toward this already before launch, it's a great sign, and means that if you've just discovered the game you have the opportunity to pick up whichever sets you want from Wave 1 & 2 for single delivery - saving on shipping.
So, if you still haven't picked up that Spartan Edition (our favourite!), or indeed any of the other launch goodies, then head to the Halo: Flashpoint main game page where you can reserve them on the next stock delivery.
So spread the word, bring your gaming buddies (videogame and tabletop!), and we can't wait to be see your fast & furious games of Flashpoint starting from next month.
