News: Mantic Newsletter - Revenant Cavalry

View Comments
Hello all, Slick here. Mantic's latest newsletter is out and there are some new minis coming for the Undead! Check out the Revenant cavalry below!

Mantic Games Newsletter
Plastic-Resin Revenant Cavalry!

There has been a lot of buzz about our Fantastic Revenant Knight miniatures ever since they were first seen as a metal product. From the beginning there have been rumours, and even a few hints from us here at Mantic, that if the Revenant Knights proved popular we would make them in plastic.

Well the day has finally come, we can officially announce that we are releasing Plastic-Resin Revenant Knights! And for those of you who just can’t wait, you can pre-order them here!

What is Resin-Plastic?

It is a material that sits half way between the normal plastic we use, and resin. We like the amazing detail it gives on the figures. On the site you will get to see a full unit of 10 Revenant Knights painted – and they look fantastic. You glue the models together with regular super glue (not plastic glue), and there isn’t any actual resin in the product – it just looks and feels quite similar. There is much more detail on the blog, and photos on the site.

So, tell us about the price…

We’ll that is really one of the great things – we are able to offer 10 Undead Revenant Knights for the same price as 5 metal ones!! So now you get twice the models (so double the death!) for the same price as before (and we like to think our limited edition metal ones were already considerably cheaper than the market generally - you know who I mean ;)

These models obviously work in the new Kings of War fantasy battle wargame, but they are also seem to be proving to very popular in Undead armies for certain other fantasy wargames!

We are releasing 2 sets, firstly the standard Undead Revenant Cavalry Set, which contains 10 highly detailed plastic/resin figures all for only £25/€30/$45.

The second set on offer is a special web deal, only available from our website. The Undead Revenant Cavalry Horde contains 20 highly detailed plastic/resin figures, and additional metal troop bits to replace the second command set you get, if you feel like fielding a truly massive 20-man Cavalry Horde! You get all of this for only £50/€60/$90. Also as a very special offer, all Undead Revenant Cavalry Hordes will include a FREE Mantic Messenger Bag!

To celebrate we have decided to run a competition over the weekend to offer you guys a chance to win a regiment of Revenant Cavalry. To win please tell us how many different components there are in the new Undead Revenant Cavalry Set (not the number of models or total number of pieces, just the individual sculpts).

(Hint: If you go onto the product page for the new box set here, there are images showing you all the different components.)

All you have to do to enter is fill in our Revenant Cavalry Competition Form to give yourself a chance to win!

All correct answers will be entered into our prize draw on Wednesday the 17th of November 2010, where one lucky entrant will win a completely FREE Undead Revenant Cavalry Set!


Ho Ho Ho - Christmas Comes Early!

As part of the build up to the Christmas period, we here at Mantic have decided to include a FREE pair of Mantic Clippers worth £5/€8/$10 with all orders over £25/€30/$45!

So, place your order in and get yourself a brand new pair of clippers to replace those tatty old ones you've had for ages!!

New November Releases - Coming Very Soon!

Continuing the momentum that has been generated by Mhorgoth's Revenge Fantasy Battle-set hitting the shelves, last month sees the release of a two brand new sets for the Dwarfs, and two brand new sets for the Undead.

For the Dwarves we have:


The Dwarf Army Set containing no fewer than 85 plastic miniatures, which will begin shipping immediately and is available to pre-order today!

The second Dwarf release for this month is the fantastic new Shieldbreakers. These are available in both a 10-man troop and 20-man (with Command) regiment sets.

For the Undead we have:

The Liche King is finally up for pre-order! As a special offer, available off our website, you can pick up the Liche King as an individual model here!

In addition you can also pick up the Liche King as part of a box-set, which not only includes this fantastic metal sculpt, but also includes 10 plastic Revenants. Pre-order yours now!

The second big Undead release is our Skeleton Archers. This set contains enough parts to make 10 skeletons in varying poses, plus you get 10 metal coversion parts to create your archer unit.

News: Mantic Newsletter

View Comments
Hello all, Slick here. Mantic's latest newsletter is out and the Zombies are finally available. They look great and their price means you can amass quite the horde without hitting the wallet too hard. Mantic is also set to have their first Open Day! Read more below:

Mantic Games Newsletter

Zombies - The Shambling Hordes Approach!

The Zombies are nearly here!

With the new miniatures shipping from the 24th of September 2010, which is only just over 1 week away, we know you all must be really excited, as we definitely are!

Painted by Andrew Wedmore

If you have been watching our Blog this week then you will have seen that we have been teasing you with images, as this week was Zombie week. So we know you have probably seen these images before, but we think they are just so good that we would show you them again!

To celebrate this big release we have decided that every order* placed on our website until the end of the month will receive a Zombie sprue completely free!

*Please note: any order consisting of just an Open Day ticket or a subscription is exempt from this offer.

Now we are sure you will want more than just one sprue, so don't forget you can get your hands on these fantastic figures by buying the
Zombie Regiment, the Zombie Horde, or for what can only be described as amazing value for money you can pick up the Zombies in our brand new Undead Army Deal: Malak's Endless Hordes. Zombies are also included in the Mhorgoth's Revenge Fantasy Battleset, the Undead Army Set.

All of these box-sets are available for pre-order now, so what are you waiting for!

Kings of War Fantasy Battle Rules

Well the Closed Beta has now been available for download for a week now and we have been really pleased to see that the rules seem to be going down so well within the community.

Just in case you missed the rules, here is the link again - just click on the logo below to get your FREE download!:


We would just like to take this opportunity to explain our plans. This is a Closed Public Beta of the rules, giving you guys who are signed up to the newsletter first access to the download. Then the plan is we will print the first version of the rules to be included within our box-sets.

This printed version is an Open Beta of the rules, we will be collecting feedback from everyone. In approximately 6 months time we intend to revise the rules again, using all the feedback we have received, and publish a second version.

Will you lead the
Undead Horde to victory?

We want to thank everyone who has been playing our game and leaving feedback for us. We are regularly reading the forums, and it is great to see people discussing the rules. We have already started building up a database of ideas that we want to go through and test with Alessio.

So please keep talking to us, we really do want to know what you like, what you don't like and what you maybe think we can add.

Until next time - braaaaiiiins....

Open Day

The Open Day is continuing to build momentum, tickets are proving to be popular, which is great to see, as we here at Mantic would love to meet as many of you as possible. We will have to stop selling ticket shortly, so please pick up your ticket soon.

The Open Day is being held on the 9th October 2010 with doors opening at 10am, with last entry at 4pm, though our doors won't close until 5pm.

We will have all of our painted miniatures on display, and there will be a store set-up where you will be able to purchase any of our product range - and loose plastic sprues!

“Celebrities” will be in attendance, including the star of all the video blogs you all know and love.

Alessio Cavatore will be attending and we can now confirm that both Mike McVey and Bob Naismith are going to be here with us. You can talk to them about all things Mantic. Bob sculpted the incredible new Zombies, and Mike will be painting some during the day - which we intend to give away as prizes!

We will also be running demos of our brand new game so you will get to feel the full Kings of War experience using two of our beautifully painted armies.

We have a range of ticket deals on offer as you can see here - so what are you waiting for, pick up your ticket now!


Shipping in September

Mark the 24th September in your diary, the latest sets from Mantic will be shipping.

The Dwarf Berserkers and Dwarf War Kings Council will add two new metal sets to the Dwarf army and some of our most beautiful sculpts to date.

Issue 2 of the Journal will also begin shipping. Penned by the brilliant Guy Haley once again (watch out for a blog coming from him soon), those of you who've ordered the subscription from Issue 2 will also get a free Dwarf Miner with Drill figure!


For full details on the month's releases check out our advance order pages here.

Triple Helix

Mantic will be attending the grand opening of Triple Helix Wargames in Westbury, Somerset this weekend and, as well as free give-a-ways and the chance to talk to us about all things Mantic, we're also bringing a couple of our armies down to demonstrate the new ruleset!

Steven and Charlotte have gone all out on this event and you can check out details on their facebook page (though whilst you're at it, why not hang a left and wander over to the Mantic Facebook page - you might like it!).

We'd like to say a big thank you to the guys for inviting us so make sure you pop down and check it out!

News: Mantic Newsletter - Malak Pre-Order

View Comments
Hello all, Slick here. Mantic's latest newsletter is out and their new Malak miniature is up for pre-order! It looks like a fairly nice centerpiece for an undead army. There is also a corresponding army deal being offered, so if you want to amass an undead horde and not spend big money, then you might want to check that out.

Mantic Games Newsletter
The Malak pre-order deal ends this weekend

With the Revenant cavalry soon becoming a stock line and the new Dwarf range starting to come out, this is the last weekend you can pick up the Malak deal.
It has over 100 Undead models, and includes 5 metal Wraiths, 5 of the incredible Armoured Skeleton cavalry, a full set of Heroes and Necromancers, and the Undead Pegasus with Vampire Lord.
When you add in the 40 skeleton warriors, 40 armoured Skeleton Warriors, 20 Ghouls and the warmachines you have a truly massive Undead army – easily 2000 points worth, even more when you scatter a few magic items about.
With Mantic models already offering by far the best way to buy a fantasy battle army, this offer is a one off. It was a special offer to celebrate the launch of our Undead Army, so you will not see anything like it again.


So, whether you have a Vampire army that needs just a few more models (!), or intend to start a new army at a sensible price, – please get along to the site and look at the deal. It ends midnight Sunday.

Malak dies Sunday at midnight! Don't miss it.

Collectors Range

We now have available the resin Dwarf Collectors Edition, and of course his trusty pit dog.
As with all the Collectors range, the model is limited to just 75 copies (although we have not limited the dog!), so get along now to collect a piece of Mantic history.

The VIP list:

If you want to collect 1 of each resin model we do have a VIP preview list. Once you have bought any model in the Collectors range you can chose to be added to the VIP list. This gives you a chance to buy the resin casts before they go on open sale. This route is becoming increasingly popular. To add your name to the list if you are interested email here: info@manticgames.com
Events Diary


This weekend we are spanning the globe. We are at Origins in Columbus Ohio, where our Elf range has been short-listed as best miniatures range of 2009.

News: Mantic Newsletter

View Comments
Hello all, Slick here. The latest Mantic newsletter is out and there are some pretty good new releases: more of their Undead range is out, and check out that cool dragon for the High Elves! Last but not least check out the Mantic Paint set!

Mantic Games Newsletter
Happy Easter!

Mantic Towers (which you can see in our new Guided Tour video), has a new gatekeeper – Garius Maximus, and he has some new and shiny things to show you this Easter!

To start with, we have two brand new metal kits: the Undead Death Kings Cabal and the Elf Lord on Battle Dragon, available for preorder.

With the Warhosts of the Undead now spilling into the mortal world, the Death Kings Cabal features 4 metal heroes -2 Necromancers, a Revenant Hero and a standard bearer – to lead your Undead horde into battle. Dynamically posed and possessed of fine detail, these insane characters raise up the remains of former soldiers to fight again once more and are included free in Malak's Legion of Death!

For the Elves, nothing is more intimidating than an Elf Lord on Battle Dragon, and we proudly unveiled this figure in the mantic blog last week. The Battle Dragon is a premium metal kit and is great for those hobbyists who want to flex their painting muscles, or for gamers wanting to add the most powerful of heroes to their army. An Elf Lord on his own is a formidable opponent: coupled with a Battle Dragon, he is nigh on unstoppable.

These two sets will be released on the 26th April and, to celebrate, we've also added a new Army Deal. Tydarion's Dragon Host combines two Elven Warhost – over 100 plastic figures including 40 Spearmen, 40 Bowmen, 20 Scouts and 2 warmachines – with an Elf Dragon's Breath, Elf Kings Court, Elf Stormwind Riders and a FREE Elf Lord on Battle Dragon. With 16 Mantic Points, 5 cavalry figures, a plethora of infantry and warmachines, a mighty court of 4 Elven Heroes and a devastatingly powerful and beautifully detailed Dragon Lord, the Elves can finally take the fight to Mhorgoth's dread Undead horde.

Undead Paintset

With huge battles comes a huge number of miniatures, and a very busy painting station. We've been hard at work collaborating on a new set of colours called Warpaints, high quality acrylic paints that are the best available for painting miniatures with, and April sees our first paint set available for pre-order.


Released on the 26th April, the Undead Paintset contains six 15ml Warpaints – Black, White, Bone, Armour, Blue and Red – a sprue of 10 highly detailed plastic skeletons and a quality paint brush, all wrapped up in a Mantic Carry Case, and even includes a Mantic Point!

This full-to-the-brim set gives you everything you need to start painting your masses of troops, even giving you figures to get started with should you have not had chance to pick yourself up a box yet. For more information, visit the shop here.
Next month sees the launch of the Mantic Paint set – 9 colours, a brush and free figures - all you need to start painting.

An apology

As many of you know, we've been in collaboration with Wayland Games to offer a free Ghoul sprue if you filled out a form on their website. We've had a huge response so there has been a bit of a delay in getting them out, but they are now shipping.

For some of you, it wasn't made clear that you would be signed up to both the Mantic Games and Wayland Games newsletter. We can only apologise for this and we've taken the steps necessary to ensure no one will be left in doubt again. We hope that you will stick with us, especially now your Ghouls are on their way!

News: Mantic Newsletter

View Comments
Hello all, Slick here. Another Mantic newsletter is out this week and it looks like the Undead releases are in full swing! Mantic is still running their Free Shipping offer so be sure to take advantage of that if you plan to get anything from the Undead range.

Mantic Games Newsletter
Welcome

In the last two weeks a lot of new subscribers have joined us from the free Ghouls offer. To you all; Welcome to the Journey! We try and keep the newsletter short, but fill it with the latest news, offers and pictures (the best rumours, and our attempts at humour are usually found on our blog). I hope you enjoy what you see here, please tell your friends about Mantic, and what we are trying to achieve (great minatures, big armies at a fair price), and I thank you sincerly for your support.

New Collector's Range Ghoul available for pre-order


The first two limited edition Miniatures from the Collector's Range have already sold half of our initial run of 75 (not bad in just 8 weeks!), meaning that we have strictly limited quantities left in the warehouse. We are now making the next in the series available for order.

After reading the blog about the sculptor's experience
creating the incredible new ghouls, we thought everyone would like the option to get their hands on one of the originals. The Ghouls have been exceptionally popular and we thought that this gruesome figure would make for a fantastic painters and collector's piece. Again we will be limiting this to just 75 copies ever, and they will come in their own box, with a signed certificate of Authenticity, for just £25 - and post free if they are ordered in March (FREEDELWW).

Anyone who signed up last time around to receive notification of upcoming Collector's figures have been able to place their orders early, and will have their figure shipped first, so if you want to get your hands on the next collectors figures early, make sure you let us know by using the Contact form.

Undead Revenants shipping - Balefire Catapult now in the warehouse!


You've seen the new photographs on the website, you've seen the video review, and now the Revenants are released and shipping!

Finely detailed, plastic models, these sets let you field the elite of an Undead army onto the battlefield, alongside the Skeleton infantry and slavering Ghouls.

Furthermore, mark the 25th March in your diary, the Balefire catapult has asrrived in the Warehouse. The Undead Warhost will be shipping on Thursday, after all the pre-orders. We appreciate it's been a bit of a wait, and we thank you all for your patience, but all warhosts, including those that are part of a deal, will begin shipping immediately.

With an abundance of Mantic points, and over 50 plastic figures, the Warhost is the way to get yourself a whole load of Mantic figures to add to your existing army, or to start a completely new Undead army. With free shipping running out soon, make sure you order yours now.
Remember!

The Extended Free Worldwide shipping is ending 31st March, so remember to make use of your FREEDELWW code in the webstore now!

Final Chance

Mantic Games are still taking applications for two Trade Sales Executives vacancies up until the 26th March. If working in a highly experienced sales team with excellent opportunities grabs your attention, please send in your CV as soon as possible.

For more information on the job role and contact information, please view the recruitment page.

Come and see us!

This weekend we will be attending two Events, where we'll be available to chat about all things miniatures, and more besides. We'll be bringing some painted miniatures, challenging you guys to beat our speedbuilding record, and will probably at some time divulge our entire release schedule (again).

On the 20th March, we're going to be at Maelstrom Games' Eye of the Storm at the "Winter Incursion" event.

On the 21st March, we're going to be with the guys from Warlord Games at the West Midlands Military Show, and will be on hand to talk about all things fantasy.

To keep up to date with all new events, please check out our Events Diary Here, which will be continuously updated as we confirm new place

News: Mantic Newsletter

View Comments
Hello all, Slick here. Another Mantic Newsletter hit the inbox and again it's packed full of awesome new stuff. More Undead are being released and it looks like the Elves are getting a lord on a dragon soon as well! Also, Mantic is starting their points reward program which looks like it has some pretty cool prizes available. They are also apparently set to release their own paint range soon. It definitely looks like Mantic is doing well and doing things the right way --- making the customers happy. If you haven't checked their site yet, I would definitely recommend it!

Mantic Games Newsletter
FREE MINIATURES AND OTHER REWARDS!

You know we said keep those point stickers...


Mantic Games are proud to announce the launch of their reward scheme – Mantic Points - you can save your points to claim exclusive rewards.

In every box of Mantic product there is a number of Mantic Points (usually on the sticker sheet; you normally get 1 per 10 figures or
per Warmachine), so a Warhost will get you 6 Mantic points (as well as already being fantastic value for a big box of fun!). We will also give them out at events and as competition prizes.

You stick the points on to a collector’s card, and send them in to us and we redeem them. Cards can be found in mail orders, packed in the product, at your local hobby store, and downloadable from the web (you can always use a piece of paper from home – just remember to add your name and address to it!)

You can now redeem your points and select some incredible gifts, including unit champions, Mantic mugs, signed artwork, key rings and free Mantic product. The top rewards are an Elven General planning his battle strategy over his (very Elven) wargames table, and Mhorgoth the Faceless - the Necromancer from the art of the new range of Mantic Undead, complete with burning orbs instead of hands. Both these models are redeemable for 50 Mantic points. They are totally free of charge (you don’t even pay P&P!) and will not be made available for sale – they will only be available as Mantic Points rewards and occasional prizes –so very rare and exclusive!

Click here to look at the rewards sheet.
The Undead Warhost is available for pre-order. –shipping 25th March
We are expecting the balefire catapult any day now (sorry again to those of you who have been waiting for this – I am sure you will get a few extra Mantic Points in the box when they arrive!) and when it does we can start sending out the Undead Warhost – which makes collecting a fantastic (and big) Undead army both easy, fun and affordable!

The set contains:
  • A unit of 20 Skeleton Warriors including Command troops
  • A unit of 20 Revenants – elite armoured Skeleton Warriors with Command
  • 10 of the fantastic new Ghouls, and
  • A Balefire Catapult, a war devastating machine with fully equipped crew!
To celebrate the launch of Mantic points and the Undead Warhost we are offering several new deals on the website, so make sure you check out the link in the sidebar to see more!

Click here to advance order your Warhost now (shipping on 25th March).

These guys look fairly good although I'll have to see more pictures for a better review of them. If you are ordering, they are doing their FREE shipping deal again, which is just awesome!

Hi all, time for another Mantic Newsletter. More undead are on out now! The Ghouls look excellent! There is also a free worldwide shipping offer so check it out:

Mantic Games Newsletter
Fleshing out the ranks

The sprues are in and the boxes are shipping – the Ghouls have been unshackled and unleashed into the world!


Driven by primal bloodlust and unbound fury, these depraved creatures are now part of a 10 man plastic box set. A Ghoul Troop offers all sorts of extra bits for you to play with, and the ball join on the torsos offers extra pose-ability meaning no two Ghouls need ever look the same!

Free Postage – Worldwide!

From today until midnight 28th February, we're offering free postage on everything – to everywhere!

So no matter where you are, or whether you want a pack of incredible new Ghouls, an Elven Spearman Regiment, a limited edition Collectors piece or Mhorgoth’s huge Undead Army now is the time!

To claim worldwide free delivery simply type in FREEDELWW in the discount code section.

Some of our deals and offers contain whole heaps of plastic and metal figures, so if you've been tempted by something already, or thought something was a little out of reach, now is the time to grab it! Click here for the store.

Doing it for yourself

Last week we put new articles by The Army Painter onto the website, showcasing how they've gone about building and painting their Skeleton Regiments.

Now in the webstore is a new bundle designed to paint big Undead hordes. It combines Anti-shine Matt Varnish, Strong Tone Quickshade and, new to the store, Skeleton Bone Colour Primer. We already know from our most recent challenge that Mantic kits are easy and quick to build; now this bundle will let you paint your skeletons quickly and well!
Click here for the store.
Challenge continues!
Last week we raised a challenge – can you beat the boss in speed building a unit of 10 Skeletons?

We'd like to congratulate Jozsef Ottucsak who wins himself a Warhost by setting a time of 11:48. Just as we went to print, his time was beaten by Viv Chandra in a time of 11:33, so he’s won a Warhost too!

Now the question is this... can you beat him?! Click here for the challenge! Whoever has set the new lowest time by Monday March 1st wins a Warhost!

New Releases
The Undead range is ever growing with the following now released:
  • Undead Ghoul Troop
  • Undead Skeleton Troop
  • Undead Skeleton Command
  • Undead Skeleton Regiment
Also, coming this month:
  • Elves Stormwind Cavalry
  • Undead Revenant Regiment
  • Undead Soultaker Detachment
For more information on the latest releases, advance orders and army deals from Mantic, click here.

Media Spotlight
We'd just like to take the time to show our recognition for all those that support us and give their time for the Mantic cause.

The Chamber of Kings is a dedicated fan-forum set up by Maxwell McDougall, and includes discussion on news and rumours, miniatures and project logs. It can be found here.

We hope he enjoys the Skeleton sprues we've sent him in the post as a thank you!

On that note, we really want to fill the gallery with pictures of your Mantic models - please send them in using the contact us form on the site.
