I am one of the 'Halo guys' - myself and a core group kept the Spartan Games Fleet Battles and Ground Command titles community-run since 2017. I'm relieved Mantic, with it's great reputation, has the license now. I hope Mantic will someday release a small scale Halo title, cause if they do, I'm all in!

fake news, get out of here!

Can confirm the minis are 1000x better than a few years ago.

Local community loves the vault, and now they are all subscribed to the companion! I want those plastic cyphers and matsudon haha

Thank you everyone at Mantic for all your tremendous work this year! Looking forward to what more you have in store.

Its been an amazing month so far. The work on the Mazon site was great. A great way to tease things and give backstory.

Firefight is an outstanding game. Can’t wait for the nameless sprue 😀

Any news on Vanguard/ KoW Skirmish?

That’s us at Adepticon! Great work and excited to see more Kings of War

Can't wait for the summer of Sci-fi!

Summer of scifi! Yes! Been a fan of Mantic for years and it's been great to see y'all grow and just get better and better. Looking forward to more. Definitely planning on using DSO and Halo to lure people into playing.

I love those new Cyphers. They look great.

Amazing update Mantic crew! Love it! Now, bring me a new two player Deadzone box. :)

Whoever wins please ask for new plastic rebs 😱

Ah so the fires of the Abyss are soaring again ay? What diabolical creatures will spring forth from from the 7 Circles? Updated Cypers look fantastic, the level of detail just. *chef's kiss*

I am here for Halo, but I am excited to get my hands on DSO in the future for some dungeon crawling fun. Can't wait for Gen Con

Trident Realm is my main faction and my army is nearly entirely Mantic miniatures. Fingers crossed for Trident King, Depth Horrors, and Placoderms to get miniatures in the near future.

With the news of Mantic + Riverhorse game, any news on the Ghost in the Shell game Riverhorse teased last year? I'd love to see what these two great game companies can do together with that world and those characters!

watch this space ;)

Me literally watching this while unboxing my plague strike force , waiting for several armies for warpath hearing Ronnie say "Summer of sci-fi is coming"

Can't wait to see more Flashpoint content. Excited to see what the future holds. Maybe some ODST? Something akin to Shatterpoint where it's a mix of named characters and generic characters would be fantastic!

Got my Deadzone Starter set last month, couldn't have picked a better time to get started!

You guys keep going from strength to strength - keep it up!

So I am loving the summer of sci-fi just starting deadzone

I have filled in my pledge manager for Warpath! I have gone for Plague and Nameless & 1 behemoth for both sides. I would love to see a big info dump on Warpath. We need to see more! I was hoping during the summer of Sci Fi for the Nameless to get an army list for Firefight. I have wanted to play firefight but I am not as sold on the other faction's in comparison to the Nameless. I will have them in DZ & Epic Warpath... Cmon... Let's just have them in Firefight 😉

My gosh thank you for redoing that unit of Asterians. I love them! 😍

Thanks for the update! Great news and strong presentation!

I'm looking forward to the new Forces of the Abyss miniatures.

nice pronunciation of Århus, honestly.

You might want to UPDATE your website with sold out on all of your halo stuff. It's weird that the add on options can't be clicked but are not shown as sold out. About a week or two I was considering getting more dice and tokens for my pre-order and noticed your store was broken then. Not sure why I can't give you more money to have a more rounded set but I'm happy to hear that things are selling well. That said, please restock if possible so that we can add more to our preorders.

Hi, our web guy has been on the case and it should be working now. We've had pre-orders for our own website's full launch allocation of Spartan Editions (due to massive demand) and we're directing everyone to please go and support their FLGS in the meantime, especially if they want that version of the game: haloflashpoint.manticgames.com/stockists/

Do hope you guys do Halo at Epic warpath scale. That's definitely gonna sell even more!

Hope that Armada has some more support coming down the line, after the Summer of Sci-fi of course 😅

Free rulebook will be handy... gotta put in an order...

The dream team!

Looking forward to Deadzone and Firefight campaign activities. I had a blast with the last Deadzone Campaign and these are always great for getting folks stoked about the games.

Hands down, Mantic is my favorite gaming company!!!

Andy here - I love the idea. I'm really excited for this kind of plug and play team to just get playing. There's options for the list builders and then for those, like me, who don't enjoy that so much there's these self contained thematic squads.

I picked up Deadzone need to read the rules. So then i can figure out a faction. I have been tempted to pick up Firefight. But i think i would have to order from the UK to get it.

The new Nightstalker flyer was a instant buy for me, great look army

Great video! So much to look forward to throughout 2024 😀

6:57 I think a cloaked elite walked in front of you just then.

I am so very glad you mad lads brought the nightstalkers over to firefight, just sayin'.

please in this summer of scifi just consider for a second marauder bikers, please

Is it ok if I like both the before and after photos? Definitely like the more dynamic poses, but also that you haven't gone crazy with bits and transitions which would make them take a lot longer to paint!

Hello Mantic. Can you please clarify the comment regarding the DSO app saving your progress at 2:03? I’m using the web version and that doesn’t ‘save’ any game progress. I can update my character profiles but the Dungeon has to be started from scratch every time. Cheers!

Hi - as in you can save and track your characters/gold/equipment states between quests on the main screen - rather than the progress within each quest.

probably not, the license means we have to be really careful, and do not have the usual freedom to do whatever crazy ideas pop in to our heads. the good news is there will be lots of play through videos from Andy and it is not very long - so it is very easy to learn and get started. cheers R

there are clues (answers!) in some of the fanatic pages. here are some hints: look for numbers, and some emails 'move' 'it is behind 'you' ;)

Everything about Mantic is awesomesauce. The personnel on staff, the rules, and the community they foster are top tier. I just wish the sculpts and designs were a little less 90s feeling (design language wise). They should honestly contract some of the 3d print design studios producing absolutely killer sculpts out there, and I really think their market share would grow to where it should be... toe to toe with James's workshop. Tho, i do think it's a really smart move to be offering official STLs via MMF and preempting that portion of the market. I just wish more of their original IP stuff had better visual appeal...

We have LOTS of things we're working on in the background, and we'll be sure to put out an announcement on any current systems when they're ready to share. Languages are certainly on our agenda, and you'll see that many of our recent and future games (Dungeon Saga Origins, Worms, Halo, Epic Warpath) are already coming in multiple languages. Some of those translations are only stocked in-country through the national distributor and their retailers, rather than through the Mantic webstore as those products are not held in our UK warehouse to dispatch. Translated products (new and old) that we do have on-site and available are visible in the 'International Languages' category of our webstore.

Whoop whoop! Halo is so cool!
