Yeah, Sentinels have been playing this for months.

Glad to finally be able to face non-Sentinels.

I don't really get what it is.
Is it a flash game?
Does it have tie ins with the table top game?

It is a table-top game made into a flash-game. I guess they were not selling enough models so they made it free.

That was my first guess. I am a little disappointed it didn't turn out to be my second...

Ahh well, I have heard good things about the TTG, so I will have to check this out. I really love turn based strategy and tactics games, and I really wish there were more on the PC.

It's not turnbased OR Strategy/Tactical in anyway. It's NOT the actual game in Flash. It's a game that gives you spaces for 5 units(based on units from AT-43), has you place them on a grid, then face off against an opponent. The Computer then calculates the results and which units dies.

There is nothing beyond that. The placement of units means nothing and you don't actually play against the opponent, you just pick your units and the computer does the rest.

Eventually, you will get tired of watching the matches play out and just start hitting the "Go to Results" button instead of the "Play Match" button.
