These hazmat models just filled my head with all kinds of thematic scenarios.
They could fit in to all kinds of post-apocalyptic games. Protected from the zombie plague? Radiation? Bio weapons? All of the above?
It seems unlikely that a team like this would actually be outfitted with blue nitrile gloves, but I couldn’t help myself.
Along with the two player starter, I picked up a handful of additional Spectre models.
These undercover operatives are fun because they’re clearly ready for action, but not in uniform like the insurgents and DEVGRU.
The detail on these models is also a lot nicer. I wonder if they’d give a better first impression than some of the two-player starter models.
This is the second half of the Spectre two-player starter. They all have very nice hats.
I haven’t gotten a game in yet. I don’t think this game lends itself well to play with the kids.
Maybe somebody has a Metal Gear style single player mode.
Back at Adepticon 2019, Spectre caught my eye in the vendor hall. I didn’t make the time to find a demo, but eagerly signed up for a newbies welcome in 2020. Well, 2020 didn’t happen, so I ordered some product anyways.
Spectre is an ultramodern skirmish game, depicting special forces, insurgents, terrorists, and other types.
This is half of the two-player starter set. The models are relatively small scale (20mm bases!) with realistically proportioned weapons. That means bendy barrels! At least they’re metal and can be bent back pretty easily.
