10k Wholsome Helldivers! A Massive Feat & New Community Event! Thank You All!

Attention all Helldivers!

We hit an absolutely MASSIVE milestone, having now reached a total of 10k+ of the most Wholesome Helldivers Super Earth has to offer!

We can say without contestation that we are a definitive branch of the Helldivers community at large.

What started out as my goal to gather players who enjoyed the gameplay, the moments with friends, and the experiences that drew us to this game in the first place, has grown into something far larger than myself.

With the help of an increadible mod team, we have listened to your feedback, supported our community members, and created a wonderful Discord server to connect more players than ever with a shared interest.

Most importantly, it is YOU who have made this space what it is. I am constantly impressed with the amazing memes that you've all created. The supportive posts asking for, and giving advice to one another. The hilarious gameclips and raw moments between games. And most especially is the wonderful amount of fanart that has been shared in this community.

You have all reignited my love and passion for this game over the last few months. Thank you, to every single Helldiver here, supporting this community by being your wonderful self.

We are instituting a new celebratory event in this community that will expand on our purpose and goals of this sub, starting on Monday. Please be on the lookout for the event details, so you can be a part of the difference.

On behalf of Super Earth, on behalf of this humble mod team, I salute each and every one of you.

I love you all, keep up the good fight! 🫡

Some fun pictures from last night's meet up! We had a blast!

We had a massive blast today at Ettin Games here in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We just did casual play today, but are testing a new gameplay mechanic that randomizes game modes and map setups. We are testing and will publicaly share after beta is done.

If you are in New Mexico, specifically Albuquerque or the surrounding area, come join us! Play is free, and we meet up every Monday.

Same Mini. New Lighting. Working on a new photography setup, opinions and advice welcomed!

Im still working on dialing in the exact camera settings I need to make this new setup perfect, but I think I'm getting close.

Kat is by far one of my best minis, and aside from a few minor over brushing blemishes I am too lazy to correct, she looks amazing and this new lighting setup really brings that out in her.

My setup comprises of a cut apart old shoe box woth a large white peice of printer paper glue sticked to the back, and now my two new lights. I shoot everything on my phone camera, a Samsung Galaxy S23FE, woth no post editing done. What you see are raw unedited photos.

I have never done photography, much less mini photography, but the process has been really amazing to discover.

My goal is to create consistent, quality photos I can use for some upcoming step by step painting guides for our Halo Flashpoint website, TheBlackHarriers.com

Any feedback is welcomed!

The battle for Instalation 04 over the years.

These are all the different iterations we have of the first Halo conflict over the years. Starting with the originally intended MAC version, to PC-CD-ROM, Xbox, and the now various remasters. Multiple generations, multiple platforms, one great story.

Hail to the Chief.

Updated the gameshelf with another grail! The MCC Steelbook. All I am missing is the Halo Wars 2 Australian exclusive steelbook!

Really glad to have another grail in the collection. Always happy to have it grow more and more. I got this on a good deal from Amazon UK, and while the box was horribly damaged during shipping the steelbook was in good condition. Very happy to have this up on the shelf now!

The Black Harriers Gallery Page Is Open for Submissions

Hey everyone. Wanted to make a quick post about something we've had live on our site for a bit now, our Gallery page, and honestly we want more of the community involved in it.

The whole point of the page is simple. We want to show off painted Halo Flashpoint minis from players everywhere, not just our own local chapter here in Albuquerque. This game is still young, and the people building it up right now, painting their own take on these units, running their own tables, showing up to demo days, that's the community. We want the gallery to actually reflect that.

So here's the ask. If you've got a mini you're proud of, whether it's your first ever paint job or something you've spent weeks on, or a stellar community or gameplay moment, we'd love to feature it. You'll get full credit for it, it's your moment and your name goes with it.

Easiest way to get started is through our contact page. It has everything you need to know about submitting a photo.

We built this site to be a hub for the whole Flashpoint community, not just our corner of it, so if that's something you want to be part of, we'd genuinely love to see what you've been working on! :D

New Article from The Dispatch | Fresh From Gen Con: Breaking Down the New Zeta Halo Wave Keywords and Stats

Some community members over on this sub made the trip to Gen Con and got early looks at the new unit cards for the Battle for Zeta Halo wave, and we put together a full breakdown. UNSC Marines, Spartan Tomas Horvath, the new Grunts and Jackals, the Sangheili Enforcer, and the full Spartan Killers trio, stats, keywords, and special orders, all covered. Big thanks to everyone who shared photos and making this possible.

If you're trying to figure out what these new units mean for your fireteam before the September release, this should help. Would love to hear what everyone's most excited to field once the wave drops. Link's in the post, give it a read and let us know what you think.

Each game mode reflects the evolving state of the Zeta Halo, and how its being fought for.

If you're in the Albuquerque/Bernalillo County area in New Mexico, check out our page for the dates and events so you can start building a winning force to claim victory.

I kinda wish we had another pandemic to finish off all the stupid people who are in charge and have power.

The western hemisphere really turned into Idiocracy, didnt it?

Hey gang, got a quick question for you all. 500kg Eagle bomb, how we feeling?

Gathering people's opinions for personal research. I used to run it all the time, but lately I have been experimenting with other Eagles. I've dropped it directly on top of groups of bots, and it doesn't seem to kill single one. even in an open field with no cover. Doesn't destroy war striders, or buildings. Having experimented with straying runs, and other options,I feel like there's better choices available. But how do you feel about it, and how do you use it? Let me know! :D

OK, I really have to ask what the actual fuck is this? Seriously, this is so increadibly disgusting. We are in the worst possible timeline imaginable. Its turning into a dystopia real quick. Wondering how Burnie and Ash feel about this, because I am nauseous.

Request: Does anyone have an image of the Big Team Battles Attrition map layout? The Index is only showing the standard 8x8 under that scenario.

If someone could kindly send me the image of the map layout, that'd be great. I am assembling an Organized Play event, and need that image for the event details.

[Reupload for security] Gamestop holding pre order bonuses for pros only? Had to get a membership to get my bonus.

Went to pick up Campaign Evolved, and the employee said I had to renew a pro membership to get the bonus?

When I used to work at Gamestop, we just gave them out to the people who pre ordered, not exclusively to pro's.

He also didnt tell me how much it was, I thought a pro was $15, not $25, (canceled a pre order to transfer to new collectible, and the membership was deducted from that).

Not happy at the moment. : /

UPDATE: I called customer support, and was able to ger a refund. Never shopping there again.
