In case it didn't get mentioned in the video: the same company behind this game also make a great Kill Team alternative, Deadzone, which this game is heavily based on. If you're looking for a deeper dive into the system and a wider range of miniatures - Deadzone is definitely worth checking out.
11:20 is incorrect. You cannot use both an adv command die and a shoot command die on the same model in the same activation (except when using special die to trigger Chief's One Man Army, which then allows any number of adv, shoot, and assault dice to be used in his activation.) Check the section of the rules which talks about command dice faces. I don't have it in front of me but I believe it is pg 15 or 16 👍🏻
You could do a random bag draw, from a bag of red and blue tokens for each model. Use a new token, not the command dice. You might find it feels a bit rough if your opponent strings 3 or 4 activations together, particularly over the end / start of rounds. But i suppose that's the same with BA.
Maybe you covered this and I misheard you but if you have 2 Free Shoot Com dice. Can 2 different Spartans get an extra shot or are double commands just pointless? Therefore you want to reroll any double command dice.
At 11:25ish you say they can use an Advance and Shoot Command Dice in the same turn. They can not. Page 15 of the rulebook Otherwise, awesome job! Thanks!
Expensive ? If you want to see expensive look up Warhammer killteam and compare this is really affordable and the Spartan Edition being $125 packs in a ton of content for its value
Your explanation of the diagonal move is much more clear than the rule book.

Will you guys be covering this game heavily? Looking for more great content like this.
We plan to! Probably closer to full release.
Well made video. I’m so hyped for this game! Especially because my girlfriend is a BIG halo fan.
I’m excited for the Spartan box which should be here soon!
Very cool stuff! Gonna be a useful tool for recruiting new players, well done!
This game looks like a blast. Can't wait to get my hands on it!
And I really like your little black token trays. Are those 3D prints?
My friend printed the trays for me! They’re very useful.
Sweet, cool walkthrough
Well made video - really impressive work!
This looks so cool. Great rules explanation.
Very nicely done!
good job, thanks for sharing
Would it be possible to play this with the same turn rules as bolt action? Like command dice.

Thank you
Great walkthrough! I heard about this awhile ad complete forgot it was coming.
Also curious what is the camera you're using to record?
Thanks! And I use the Sony A7 Mark IV.
Well done! Thanks.

In the normal game your tacticians can save them for the next round or reroll dice, and if you have multiples, one can be used per model activation.
@@battlegroundsgamecenter so 3 different Spartans could each use 1 free shot then?
At 11:25ish you say they can use an Advance and Shoot Command Dice in the same turn. They can not. Page 15 of the rulebook
Otherwise, awesome job! Thanks!
You are correct, thanks for the catch!
Such an expensive starter box, no way I can get my non wargamer friends to buy this.
This is a bit right? It's one of if not the cheapest wargame full game starter in the industry
Are you serious? That’s like half of what the starter box of any other war game costs.
Expensive ? If you want to see expensive look up Warhammer killteam and compare this is really affordable and the Spartan Edition being $125 packs in a ton of content for its value
Really well done!
