How To Play Kings Of War – Community Showcase

9th Aug 2023

Jonny Mann



Hey Folks,

With the Shadowed Horizons Global Campaign only a few weeks away and plenty of Slow Grow Challenges running around the world, we thought we'd share some of the fantastic "How To Play" resources from around the community. A perfect place for those that are keen to start their Kings Of War journey.


Community stalwart and organiser of this years Clash of Kings, Steve Hildrew, has created a series of videos that are full of invaluable information and a a prefect guide on how to play our great rank and flank game. His channel Death By Dragons has an "absolute beginners guide" that perfectly describes set by step how to get started with Kings Of War as well as a vast number of Battle Reports to watch.


Next up, you are going to need to make your army list, so let's hand it over to our great friend Andy. Over on his channel BlackJack Legacy, he is deep into his Kings Of War Slow Grow campaign which you can get involved in by joining the group here. Andy runs a weekly live chat and is a brilliant resource for loads of Mantic's games!


The good folks over at PlayOnTabletop put together an incredible series of videos last year. They showcased Ambush, a full Kings of War game and even a Siege Battle! We hope to work with the guys over in Canada again soon!

 


To round it off, our old favourite and long time supporter, Ash at Guerrilla Miniature Games, has been creating guides and playthroughs for Kings of War for many years. His Let's Play series is brilliant and well worth a look!


If all that has wet your appetite for Kings of War then head on over to the Mantic Webstore or Local Games Store and grab your self your very first army! What will you choose?

Kings of War: Ice and Shadow 2-player set

The Kings of War: Ice and Shadow 2-Player Starter Set is the perfect way for two players to begin their Kings of War mass battle adventure!

Relive the battle for Chill, as the Nightstalker presence threatens to turn the tide in the favour of evil. During the Abyssal Dwarf invasion of Chill, they bought with them wicked contraptions of Twilight Kin making known as void-cages. These devices, once opened, create rips in the fabric of reality and connect the mortal world to the Void, birthing Nightstalker horrors into reality.

This fantastic value set for Kings of War includes over 80 highly detailed Mantic miniatures, a full rulebook and force lists and a quick start guide. Pick between the nightmarish Nightstalkers, or the hardy Northern Alliance; give control of the other army to a friend or family and enjoy hours of fun as you take to battle! There’s no better way to get into Kings of War and the Mantic hobby – this box is also great for expanding existing armies.
