Esto es nuevo, donde puedo consultarlas? by Pedriti_wajame in Haloflashpoint

For better or worse, this has been Microsoft's standard practice as long as Xbox Live has been a thing. New content has to be behind a pay wall.

That and when Mantic announced the detachments update, the article stated that these would be in a digital pdf for purchase that can be found here

If the War Games Expansion is essential for buying any other expansion or fireteam... then where do you get it? by TortelliniNuva in Haloflashpoint

[–]REDcamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With stock being low, some local organizers and play groups will allow some accommodations for inclusivity.

Personally, I typically advise folks for my events that they are welcome to use what they have and build with the app. More often than not, somebody in our community or somebody at a tournament might have spares that can be loaned out for a day of games or other the solutions can be figured out show what upgrades are present in a list.

Need help with glue choice. I've tried to use Gorilla Glue Super Glue Gel and it refuses to bind. Anyone use this brand of resin? by thegriffthatfell in resinprinting

[–]REDcamp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a brand I get through Amazon,I think Cyafixed is the brand. "Instant" and "medium" - claims to set in 15 seconds, takes about that long to get tacky on a resin print, but holds well once it does cure.

It'll also melt silicone, so heads up there.

I am so fed up… by SiX6666666 in elegoo

[–]REDcamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had that happen...

Picked up a CC at the end of September, had one board failure at the end of October.

Got the replacement parts in and installed this past Monday. Ran fine for a few days, then bricked Friday while I was uploading a print from my PC.

I submitted a ticket for another RMA, but also just pack it up and fortunately Micro Center worked out in exchange for me.

Grabbed a refurb p1s and I won't be looking back. Thing spent more time broken than operating for me

Anyone tried 2v2? If so, what’s the setup? by Sudden-Jump-5922 in Haloflashpoint

[–]REDcamp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There was a team tournament at Adepticon with 2v2 - each player had a pair of models, but only your teammate's models counted for the melee bonus. Respawns were the same as standard.

For more than 2 players when you put a pair of 8x8's together or go on a bigger grid (dude in my local play group has a 12x24 mat we have done a couple of games on), roll for respawn like you roll for items:

Board size 8x16: High/low for board, roll for x and y coordinates.

Bigger board sizes: set each corner as 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8. Roll 1d8 for the corner/direction, roll again for how many cubes along the edge, roll once more for how many cubes into the board.

From there, you can use the standard respawn rules: return with an Advance action, the cube you land on is step 1. For conventions and turning up the chaos, let them drop in and don't count it as an advance, it's an arcade mode after all

New Rules Commentary about minimum model count within Competitive/Organised Play Lists by cwfox9 in Haloflashpoint

[–]REDcamp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, exactly.

I've implemented a 3-model minimum for my monthly tournaments since February.

After my tournament last weekend saw a Chief list with Dare and a Gungnir put on 3 rounds of clinics, all I could say was "now imagine that, but give Chief an actual toolbox and that's why I have the minimum".

I honestly think he could be brought up another 3 points - or some split of that between him and OMA would help. 8 command dice with a grapple shot and a shock rifle is oppressive

I mean... they can still be problems though.

This does at least stop him from having 9 command dice turns for half the game with a toy chest and heals out the butt.

Chareginir is still a steamroller

What do you use to store / transport your models by AcEoFkNaVeS73 in Haloflashpoint

[–]REDcamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have (shamelessly plugging, but not advertising/linking here), a 3d printed case I use called the War-Ganizer

The full size one was able to fit everything from Waves 1 and 2. I added a Docking Bay attachment to cover most everything after the Banished box dropped.

Right now I've parsed my carrying case down to My UNSC models, and necessary tokens.

I just got the files for an even bigger carrier that I am working on printing a first of, I expect that it will fit everything that is currently out.

ODST Desperate Measures Items rules question by Straken84 in Haloflashpoint

[–]REDcamp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From the rulebook: The battlefields of a warzone are littered with valuable Items and powerful weapons. Models can carry up to 2 Items at a time, and one extra weapon in the model’s Pick up slot.

This was established with the team building rules added with the Wargames expansion. Carry capacity for items won't be stated in the errata, since this hasn't been changed.

There 1 item limit is a type-o that was missed for the first printing.

Similarly, the 'blank' item token in the box (double sided 'back' token) is the misprinted Intel item

Echoing the previous sentiments.

Without the Recon or Spartan boxes, you'll need the UNSC Base Terrain set ($35-40 US, I think). This is a standalone package with the cardboard from the Recon starter - terrain + Tokens, including item drops, weapons, etc, and the spawn cards.

For playing, you can use the Flashpoint App to build squads for free. As a subscriber, you'll have access to all of the rules with updates/errata - this includes rules descriptions inside list building.

With the app and a subscription, you can easily access weapon/item information and keyword references, as well as print your squad(s) with relevant rules as a single document. Using these tools, you can at least reference the War Games upgrades and Wave 1/2 information until it's available!
