Gen Con: It Is On!
The Mantic booth at Gen Con Indy 2013 is in full swing, and reports from the guys on the front line say that it's been crazy! Sounds like Mantic fans are coming from far and wide to get a look at what's on display at Stand #1237.
Here's a photo from Tabletop Gaming News of the Mantic cabinet - it's just a small selection of what's on display! New DreadBall miniatures, the Kings of WarBasilean army, and... hang on, who's that weird-looking green guy? Yes, it's our first ever Mars Attacks miniature! It's a test piece we've done for promotional purposes, and there might be a few tweaks still to come, but we're already massively excited - and the community seems to agree! A post went up on the Mars AttacksFacebook page earlier today, and the response has been really positive. Here's a preview! If you're at Gen Con, do make sure you swing by and visit the Mantic gang. There's loads to see and do - you can try your hand at a game of DreadBall, quiz Ronnie about our upcoming releases, or just get advice on starting a new collection. As ever we've got a whole heap of special offers and show deals, so don't miss out! Also, we're selling a load of new releases and several pre-release models, although I'm told that the Werewolves, Ogres, Trolls and Elohiare nearly all gone... Finally, did you know that if you visit the Mantic Stand you can win $75 of credit for our online store just by getting a snap of our illustrious web-krudger Chris? Details are in this blog post. Best of luck!
The DGB's First Crowd-Funded Resurrection
If you can't make your way to Indianapolis this weekend, never fear! There's still plenty of Mantic goodness you can enjoy from the comfort of your own home. For instance, over at the Mantic Blog we've just released the rules for Penny Arcade's Gabe, who we turned into a limited edition MVP for DreadBall during the Kickstarter campaign. We've given him away at a few shows since, and he'll be available for a short while via Mantic Points once the new website goes live. Now you can add him to your roster and get him into the arena! |
Discutez Mantic en francais!
The Non-English Language Forum on the Mantic website now has sections for French, German, Italian and Spanish, so if your native language isn't English you can still get involved in discussions about whether the Enforcers could beat the Elohi in a fight... The Legacy Begins...
The warehouse has started receiving copies of The Basilean Legacy, and it's looking great!
