Mantic have not yet finished (or even started) fulfilment from the last 2 kickstarters. Communication and information release on those, especially Dungeon Saga, is abysmal.

Rather taking the Bleeped text to keep pumping Kickstarter for more money when they have so little to show for the ££millions they have already had.

They talked about dungeon saga in their most recent podcast, if that helps.

I have not had any issues with their communication of the dungeon saga. And the Mars attacks and first Deadzone have all shipped. I got my last deadzone shipment last month.

Mantic always comes through----and with good product for your money. Dungeon Saga and the latest Kings of War pledge managers have been up and running and communitation has been average compared to any Kickstarter.

Mantic has several "Hot" product lines. Starting the next Kickstarter for a different product line is not anything to really worry about---or to get heated over.

I'm happy with my Mars Attacks from the Mantic kickstarter, course it could'a come quicker.

But I don't think Mantic's the bargain it used to be.

As much as I generally think Mantic does a good job, it DOES seem to me that the buzz about them is almost always surrounding a kickstarter – and they all tend to wind up being quite good value for your money – but outside of the KS I don't really see all that much about their games online.

Which is a shame really, I quite like Dreadball, and Deadzone is so close to being a great game, but is let down by a few balance issues. Kings of War is a thoroughly enjoyable game, and although I think their ranges are often quite distinct, I think they're very good, Dwarves aside (and the choice of using the same bodies with shield arms for Elf archers).

Mantic Adds Scenery-Only Pledge to Deadzone Kickstarter

Mantic continues to roll along with their Deadzone Kickstarter campaign. Though, for those of you that just want the terrain that they've got as part of the game, they've heard your pleas and have created a terrain-only pledge level. The sets utilize the same terrain system that Mantic has come to be known for. The system creates easy-to-build, modular terrain that can be put together and taken apart many times. Or you can set a style you like and glue it permanently in place

Might wanna crosspost in the 28mm sci-fi section, if that's allowed?
