These are quickfire strategy games based around Mantic's Deadzone skirmish system that🧔 sees two or more players competing against one another in teams to complete mission objectives. I involves managing your squad's resources, rolling dice, and working with the cube-based map system to dominate the battlefield.

Cover, line-of-sight, and positioning mechanics all play a role in keeping the game nice and tactical, while the command dice add some randomness, an💛d a bit of flavo꧙ur and interest to unit abilities.

Both games are ostensibly the same, and both are considered great renditions of an iconic shooter. While the Halo: Flashpoint Recon Edition is a little more sparse, containing only eight Spartans along with the basic gubbins𓃲 needed to play, the Spartan edition is✱ a little more comprehensive than its sister version.

With Spartan Edition you get 16 Spartans and 4 Banished Elites, double the weapon cards, extra tokens, more player minis and cards, as well as reference cards. They've even thrown in more command dice and some extrཧa environment pieces to place on the map.
