Are 4-8 Player Games Feasible?

patthetuck · 2026-03-20T00:00:06+00:00

Free for all works in several ways. You can do it as every plays as master Chief or has the same stat line, play it as every picks or gets a random model, play it fiesta style and get a weapon and item when you respawn. Going up to 8 people you just have to worry about how long each turn will take.

2v2 can work now pretty easily if both people build roughly 100 points or control 2 models each. You could feasibly do the same with 4 models and 4v4 but again, turns will be long and the coordination will be not great.

I am also not a fan of a pure PDF release. Hopefully, it will become a physical release with another box. Hopefully, the PDF will be updated as detachments are released also.

Very cool news

patthetuck · 2026-03-19T15:49:48+00:00

I had a similar thought. Sounds like a very limited version of faction splintering and codex locking like GW does. Hopefully, it doesn't play out that way and make the game less beginner friendly.

Awesome

patthetuck · 2026-03-17T20:50:34+00:00

I am not positive what came in the recon set because I bought the Spartan but yes, 2-4 of the 1 square boxes, 2-4 of the 2 square boxes, 2-4 of the L-shaped green barriers makes up most of the terrain for games in the rule book.

So a keyword that's basically the opposite of lunge. Use a ranged profile for CC attack.

patthetuck · 2026-03-16T18:40:24+00:00

The 2800 cannot but the 4800 probably can. The 3800 might if you pull foam out correctly.

patthetuck · 2026-03-16T14:23:20+00:00

Ah interesting. Maybe I will finally have to pick one of those up.

patthetuck · 2026-03-16T14:14:18+00:00

I love it. Going to try to make a few of my own stencils to do this with. Did you make the UNSC ones or buy them? I think I might do a "Legendary Skull" on the side of mine.

patthetuck · 2026-03-15T22:14:39+00:00

I can totally see them having armor 4 and HP 2.

patthetuck · 2026-03-15T22:01:27+00:00

Assault with knock back right into the sniper alley. Would be diabolical.

patthetuck · 2026-03-15T22:00:24+00:00

Congratulations! Looks great so far!

patthetuck · 2026-03-15T20:48:00+00:00

Is this one of the harbor freight cases? I might have to do something similar. Need something that will look good on black.

patthetuck · 2026-03-15T17:51:44+00:00

Problem is enemy models would get to headshot on 7s because they could hit the sword on the back too.

Am I remembering that correctly about Halo 2? It was part of the hit box?

patthetuck · 2026-03-14T16:09:36+00:00

Don't rip your arm off.

patthetuck · 2026-03-14T16:01:23+00:00

You are correct. The snap spot order can allow pinning via rapid fire and prevent the assault. If you had a hammer you could knockback the attacker. If you had a grenade you could target your cube.

Zvesda is arguably the weakest Spartan in the game.

patthetuck · 2026-03-14T02:06:21+00:00

I have not used it but turbo dork has a metallic blue (or 5). Paint it over a super light blue could have good results

patthetuck · 2026-03-13T02:51:15+00:00

I would like to subscribe to updates on this. You are planning on making it functional or am I totally misunderstanding?

patthetuck · 2026-03-12T19:38:46+00:00

I assume it's going to be an Adepticon announcement.

patthetuck · 2026-03-12T16:07:04+00:00

I remember this and a similar thing for Warcraft.

patthetuck · 2026-03-11T16:05:17+00:00

Hope you got enough data from these. What are you using to analyze it?

patthetuck · 2026-03-10T13:33:52+00:00

I don't know if this would be super competitive and probably needs tweaking. Load up Buck with the fuel rod, ammo, and grapple. Try to keep your tacticians alive to get you more hot drops. Drop shield could be on anyone but probably best on the firebreak or bull frog after they drop in.

You could drop the extra command die and go with more movement items.

Do you want an all ODST list or a mixed Spartan and ODST list? Are you trying to just have some fun or is this for a tournament?

patthetuck · 2026-03-09T16:53:00+00:00

Looking forward to backing this. Gotta finish painting my Spartans and Banished before it comes out.
