Halo ActionClix: The Covenant forces

Gallery: Halo ActionClix
Grunts
Serving as the main infantry of the Covenant army, individually the Grunts are fairly weak and are most effective when attacking in groups. In Halo ActionClix, Grunts will similarly be weak on their own but with grenades they will still stand a chance against more powerful foes.
Jackals
As the next step up from the Grunts, Jackals serve a more defensive/long-range role in the Covenant's forces. In Halo ActionClix, as in the video games, Jackals can also come equipped with shields, making them one of the tougher characters to take down.
Brutes
The newest addition to the Covenant's army, the Brutes are also unquestionably one of its toughest factions. Physically resilient and extremely strong, their Halo ActionClix counterparts will definitely be a force on your tabletop.
Elites
As one of its oldest and most respected members, the Elites hold a special place within the Covenant's hierarchy. This, coupled with their excellent fighting skills and superior military minds, make them one of the biggest threats to the Covenant's enemies. Halo ActionClix's Elites are no different, and will come equipped with a variety of weapons, from Plasma Rifles to Energy Swords.

I actually played this at PAX. I didn't really like it at all. It was far too simplistic, and I didn't really feel the Halo universe coming through. Then again, maybe I'm just not a part of the target demographic. I typically like table top games that are a little more involved, like Warhammer 40K

We walked past this at GenCon. Not really that interested in it. But Tannhäuser by Fantasy Flight games is a good interpretation of a FPS on a board. I would suggest people check that out if they're looking for a turn-based shooter in a board game.

Not interested? c'mon!? These guys are going to battle all across my office at work! Hanging from the lights, scaling the flat panels, sniping from the top the cabinets...
as for the game - meh - no thanks - but I'll pick up a set or two of these little guys and then a bunch of grunts and hopefully some Chiefs!
/war on!
