The Twelve Days of Mantic Christmas 10: The Year Ahead…

It’s been a very busy ten days on the blog and 2016 is looking like an incredible year for fantasy and sci-fi fans – and we’re only just scratching the surface.

Already you can read about the way we are supporting Kings of War in 2016, with the Destiny of Kings campaign book, summer campaign and a new army: the Forces of the Abyss.

This is a new milestone for Kings of War – a return to hard plastic infantry, a source book full of new background and an adventure that blends Kings of War and Dungeon Saga together.

But there’s so much more than that.

Kings of War will be easier than ever to start playing in January with the addition of a mega-starter set. The Undead will take on the Dwarfs once more, only this with two expanded armies to duke it out with, and the inclusion of a 2nd Edition Rulebook, Gamer’s Edition Rulebook, plastic counter set and damage trackers.

If you’re interested in getting started with Kings of War – or want to expand your collection – this set is available to pre-order here.

Hot on the heels of the additions to the Goblin range, as you’ll see in tomorrow’s reveal, there are new miniatures coming for our existing races in March – the Dwarfs, Elves, Undead, Orcs and Abyssal Dwarfs all get reinforcements. Thoughts on what they might be in the comments please.

And later in the year, the Forces of Nature, Basileans and even an Uncharted Empires-esque book for playing Historical armies with the Kings of War rules will hit shelves.

Dungeon Saga – the dungeon adventure game set in Mantica – continues to be supported with the adventure heading to the Forests of Galahir and the Halpi mountains.

The new Dungeon Saga website is almost reading to go live, and additional adventures will be added over the course of the year via Mantic Digital. If you haven’t got your Adventurer’s Pass we thoroughly recommend getting one now.

And there is more coming – all of the work we are pouring into Deadzone and Warpath will see these two games released for you to play and new figures to add to your collection, including new plastic tanks, vehicles and scenery…

There’s plenty to look forward to on the miniature-front and the hobby front in 2016. The Mantic team is working on bringing these great hobby projects to you over the course of the year, whilst looking after those of you who have already supported us.

Whilst we continue to build our range and games, please know that we do so whilst working hard on answering everyone’s questions and solving any problems or issues that have occurred. Know this – if you have submitted a message or a request of missing parts, that you will get an answer and that we will work with you to get your problem resolved one way or another.

It is taking us too much time to get through them – we know this and we aren’t happy about it - but we will sort you out.

Thank you for being patient with us.
