This post is for those of you that have not yet dived into the world of Warpath. However, rather than go into extensive detail of every aspect of the game, I am going to give you a quick run down of the things that I think make the game awesome… This is a guest post by Andrew Brown from […]
Pictures and Impressions from Mantic Open Day 2013
Having missed every gaming event this year so far, and still holding a Mantic Ticket from the DreadBall Kickstarter, I headed to Nottingham for Mantic’s Open Day and DreadBall tournament. The DreadBall tournament was a blast, though I’ll keep my DreadBall thoughts for another post. However, even though I spend most of the day focused […]
Interview – Jake Thornton Talks About Deadzone
Mantic Games are now running a Kickstarter for their Sci-Fi Miniatures Board Game Deadzone. Deadzone is Mantic Games’ fourth game on Kickstarter and, judging by its popularity so far, their most successful one yet. Like the fantastic DreadBall (which I hope to play next week at Mantic’s Open Day), Deadzone was designed – or better, is […]
4 Reasons Deadzone Will Break Kickstarter Records
There have been plenty of teasers from Mantic Games, including (but not limited) to their only half-joking April Fools Day post and, more recently, the Salute 2013 previews. Today, Mantic Games official launched their Kickstarter-campaign for Warpath Deadzone. It’s the fourth Kickstarter from Mantic Games, following last year’s Kings of War and DreadBall, as well as […]
A First Look At Mantic’s Deadzone Plastic Terrain…
Mantic Games’ Warpath Deadzone Kickstarter is creeping closer. As it does, Mantic Games is slowly releasing more bits and hints to build anticipation (quite masterfully too, IMO). Today – during the Salute 2013 in London it appears – two more teasers appeared. The first, a video, seems to take lessons from Games Workshop in keeping […]
Mantic’s Warpath Deathzone Teasers… (on Twitter)
Mantic’s Kickstarter-drive for the Warpath: Deathzone miniature skirmish game is soon upon us. I’ve had a love-hate relationship with Mantic so far. One thing that is undeniable, however, is that Mantic’s by now a true master of stirring up publicity for their products (on Kickstarter especially). And they seem to have a whole lot of […]
April Fools Day – Have You Been Fooled?
April Fools Day came and went (in the UK at least). Perhaps because April 1st coincided with Easter Monday or perhaps because there was no brilliant idea, Games Workshop appears to have skipped April Fools this year. No successor to How To Roll Citadel Dice in sight! Admittedly, I didn’t post a prank-post either. I tried to […]
Mantic Games – Warpath Deadzone Kickstarter soon!
Mantic’s Deadzone Kickstarter is live and will end on Sunday Jun 2, 11:59pm BST. Mantic Games is clearly on a roll. Alessio Cavatore’s Loka, which Mantic is publishing, closed yesterday with a whopping USD 104,172.-. Congratulations Mr. Cavatore!!! But Mantic Games is not about to waste any time not being on Kickstarter with something. After […]
Rémy Tremblay to Sculpt Warpath for Mantic?
It is no big news that Mantic Games is looking for the really big splash with their upcoming Warpath Kickstarter. First, to bring their game rules up to scratch with Warpath 2.0, Mantic Games hired former Games Workshop rules designer Alessio Cavatore. Now, to bring the miniature line up to speed, it seems they extended […]
Mantic Games’ Latest Lazy Sculpt…
Mantic Games! Easily one of the more controversial miniature companies of recent years. They jumped into the hobby-scene as a GW copy-cat. Of course, dozens of other companies trade bits and look-a-like miniatures in Games Workshop’s slipstream. But few have taken to it with the business-like dedication that Mantic Games did. Now, it seems, they start to […]
