Mantic open day 29/09/12
#11
Great day out. Had a good chat with Ronnie and the frontlinegamer chap, who had great things to say about our Cutlass table at Salute and the UK Games Expo earlier this year.

One of the things I like about Mantic is their willingness to accept suggestions from their customers - one such suggestion accepted from the seminar floor today was that some of the Kings of War kickstarters wanted to know if they could bung for postage and get some of the scheduled kickstarter items sooner (i.e. as soon as they become available) and specifically in time for the Clash of Kings tournament.

The plan for Warpath is to become a large scale game with clashes of 200 models per side for version 3, but still playable in around 3 hours. The current version 2 rules have more of skirmish focus, a game style that Mantic might look to continue with a "Combat Squad" style addendum for the version 3 rules. There were also ideas discussed that had a Necromunda flavour to them.

Play-tests for Warpath 3 will be taking place over the next 5-6 months at the Mantic HQ. If anyone is interested in taking part then drop Mantic a line at the address on their website.

Took the opportunity to pay Maelstrom a visit while we were in the area too.
