Editing Mantic Games (section)

= Games =

As of 2018, Mantic is sticking to a tiered system with shared minis, stories, and campaigns within their two universes, plus independent licensed games:

* Warpath SciFi universe: [[Warpath]] (big Army) and Warpath: [[Firefight]] (medium Army), [[Deadzone]] (Skirmish), [[Star Saga]] (boardgame), [[Dreadball]] (sportsballgame and no shared minis outside of 'Escort the MVP' scenarios)
* <s>Mantica</s> Pannithor fantasy universe: [[Kings of War]] (Army), [[Kings of War: Vanguard]] (Skirmish), [[Dungeon Saga]] (boardgame), League of Infamy (boardgame), [[Armada]] (naval boardgame)
* Licensed: The Walking Dead: All Out War, Hellboy: The Board Game, Mars Attacks (OOP)

The basic rules for Kings of War, Warpath, and Deadzone are free from their website. Some people reckon they're too simplistic and lack the depth of Games Workshop games, others like the fact they're easy to pick up and don't require a Bible-sized rulebook and an infinite number of FAQs and erratas. Either way, there seems to be no shortage of players signing up to the annual Kings of War tournament, though it should be noted that a good chunk of them (including Mantic employers) were using GW models in said tournament, hilariously. It can be theorized that Mantic will expand their game once they reach some level of popularity, and like GW in the past renege on the liberal use of their products. Time will tell...
