Halo ActionClix - Sweet fraggin' goodness!

In case you missed it, the Halo ActionClix minis arrived last week and it's really starting to take off.

It's not surprising though. I mean, it's a pretty solid game. In some ways it works like your standard Clix games but in others (like combat) it seems a lot faster paced.

Personally, I've not been a big fan of the Clix games. My tastes run toward the paintable, tabletop variety of miniature games. In this case though, I've made an exception. We're getting some great experiences out of this games and I'm having a lot of fun with it.

The things I like about it are:

1. It's fast. A game only takes about half an hour if you play with 400 points per side.
2. Your entire collection is your reserve. In any given game any miniature that you own has the potential to hit the tabletop with the weapon-swapping, respawning and upgrading rules.
3. I love Halo. I'll admit it. I'm a Halo fan and while this isn't a requirement to enjoying the game it certainly makes the decision to get into it a lot easier.

Look for regular tournaments to get started soon on Sundays.
