Evolution!
This month we continue our releases for Halo: Ground Command and Halo: Fleet Battles, enhancing game play and adding new iconic ships.  At the same time, over in the Dystopian Wars world, our beautiful new 2.5 rulebook is released as well as the arrival of a new nation, the mighty Republic of Egypt.

Read more about our exciting June release.
 
We continue our mission to bring new dimensions to your tabletop gaming!  Read on to find out more:
New vessels join the Spartan Halo universe!  
 
Our June release sees the addition of the iconic UNSC Phoenix-Class Colonial Support Vessel to the Halo: Fleet Battles game. With the usual Spartan attention to detail, the 2.5km long monster is ready to fulfil its wide-ranging role in the Halo Universe supported by three Pelican boarding craft.  We are also releasing the Covenant Blockade Runner, sold in pairs along with ADP escorts to test the UNSC forces to the limit.
 
For Halo: Ground Command, we've listened to customers who love the game-scale Phantom and Pelican models but find their sheer size means they are hard to transport and cannot stay on the gaming table. With this in mind, we've created stunningly detailed 1/300 versions of the models that can be used in place of the gamer's basic Shadow Templates.  Not content with this, we've also added two more vessels: the mighty UNSC Longsword Strike Fighter and the sleek Covenant Seraph Strike Fighter.
 
 
 Fans of Halo will undoubtedly recognise the unmistakable profile of the Phoenix-class Colonial Support Vessel, the most famous of which is known by the name Spirit of Fire.  Our version brings UNSC players a new Large size model with which to assemble their fleets.  The Phoenix-Class Colonial Support Vessel is sold in a blister of 1 model with three Pelican boarding crafts, each with an acrylic flight stand and peg, 1 statistic card, rules and 2 overlay cards.
   

This old warship has been reconditioned for use in battle. But do not let its age fool you, the Covenant Blockade Runner is a formidable medium sized vessel used to strike fast and hard against the enemy. In Halo: Fleet Battles we deploy the ship either solo to a formation base or escorted by an ADP.   The Covenant Blockade Runner is sold in a blister of 2 models, each with an acrylic flight stand and peg, and also comes with 2 ADP Escorts, 1 statistic card, rules and Overlay cards.

The Phantom Dropship is a classic silhouette from the Halo Universe and one commonly seen during the video games sweeping in to deliver ground troops
.  Sold in a blister of 1 model, with an acrylic flight stand and peg, 1 statistic card, assembly guide and ground attack tokens, the 1/300 scale Phantom Troop Carrier can be substituted for the shadow template to bring the model to the tabletop during game play.
 
The Pelican is an iconic flyer in the Halo Universe, used to deliver everything from Spartans to Scorpion Main Battle Tanks to the battlefield.  Sold in a blister of 1 model, with an acrylic flight stand and peg, 1 statistic card, assembly guide and ground attack tokens, the Pelican Troop Carrier can be substituted for the shadow template to bring the model to the tabletop during game play.

The Longsword is the UNSC's Strike Fighter offering and takes pride of place in the Halo Universe.   Sold in a blister of 1 model, with an acrylic flight stand and peg, 1 statistic card, assembly guide and ground attack tokens, the UNSC Longsword Strike Fighter can be substituted for the shadow template to bring the model to the tabletop during game play.
 

The Covenant Seraph Strike Fighter is one of the coolest flyers in the Halo Universe and one commonly seen during the video games sweeping in to destroy enemy targets.  Sold in a blister of 1 model, with an acrylic flight stand and peg, 1 statistic card, assembly guide and ground attack tokens, the Covenant Seraph Strike Fighter can be substituted for the shadow template to bring the model to the tabletop during game play.
