8 spots are available but more space will be added if needed.

Come out and learn to play this amazing game or sharpen your skills against experianced players.

Playing your first game

On the back of the game mat, you’ll find a small 5x5 playing surface for your first games – great for learning the rules. You and your opponent will take two Spartans each. Player 1 starts with the Spartan Brawler (B) and the Spartan Zvezda (Z). Player 2 starts with the Spartan MK VII (M) and the Spartan Deadeye (D).

The map shows where to start the models on both sides and where to place the scenery. You’ll find some handy rules references printed on the mat too, to save you flicking through the rulebook as you play. You do not need to worry about Items and Weapons pick-ups for this training mission.

Player 1 takes the first Activation. Now alternate Turns between players until all models have been Activated once. Then begin the next Round with the Player who did not take the last Activation in the last Round (i.e. keep alternating). The winner is the first to kill both of the other player’s models. No Respawns are allowed in this scenario!

Once you’ve played through the starter game once, you might want to swap sides to try out the weapons of the other Spartans. Otherwise, you are ready to move onto playing a full game.

For your first few games in the full arena, start with four Items, instead of eight, to get you into the action faster with less to set up.
