I always felt Halo and Starcraft were natural fits for a tabletop wargame. They have the vehicle variety and faction variety for it. And now, a Halo-themed tabletop wargame is real!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11820048.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11820048.page GMT Re:So what's the news and review of Halo: Flashpoint? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11820052.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11820052.page GMT So what's the news and review of Halo: Flashpoint?
The figs are quite good, but the ODST figures are notably bigger than they should be.

Highly recommended if you're a fan of Halo, or if you're just interested in a well done thematic implemention of the Deadzone system.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11820125.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11820125.page GMT Re:So what's the news and review of Halo: Flashpoint? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11821398.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11821398.page GMT So what's the news and review of Halo: Flashpoint?

That was at the request of Halo Studios!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11821478.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11821478.page GMT So what's the news and review of Halo: Flashpoint?
As NPC support characters for your player-character Spartan. Here they look small to make you look big and awesome.

And as player characters in their own rite, here they look normal size.

I guess they wanted ODSTs to seem more like the player-character versions for the game as that's what they're taking the role of. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11821483.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11821483.page GMT So what's the news and review of Halo: Flashpoint?

I'm sure it was something like that, but context doesn't change the size. It's just a stupid choice because all the other game units (Spartans, Elites, Brutes) are properly scaled to each other and any fans of the game will be able to tell immediately that standard humans should not be the same size as a 7 foot Spartan.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11821582.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/818895/11821582.page GMT
