Sorry for the delay.  This old forum has pretty much fallen into disuse.  It used to be a refuge for those times when needed, but Mantic has really upped their own forum support, and the various Facebook groups allow for a great deal of fandom.

So I saw the group on Facebook, and thought I'd check out these forums!  I'm from Dayton Ohio, USA.

I don't know if I qualify as a fanatic, but I did decide to run 15 Kings of War events at Origins and GenCon this year (starting tonight), and so have made 5 1000 pt+ KoW armies (the other three I'm using right now are repurposed GW armies (orcs, goblins and ogres)).  I hope to have those replaced with Mantic armies by GenCon (at least the orcs and adding elves).

There probably are, but you'll likely have better luck reaching them through the official Mantic forum.  Which you can find here...http://forum.manticblog.com/forum.php

This place was originally a bastion of the early adopters, like myself, but it has fallen into disuse.

With the advent of Mantic's official forums, this place has become a bit of a ghost town.  You'd probably be better served by going to http://forum.manticblog.com/forum.php and checking there.

Hi. I'm looking for mantic players round my area. Is anyone out there!!!!

Hi. I'm looking for gamers near me. I play any system of mantic and will soon be re starting my kow army's. I have dread all as well. Please contact me if you fancy meeting up for a game.
Thanks.

 

 

i'm mantic fan too, I have bought the Green Menace. But this Ancient Grudge is have priced too much for what it had in the box.
Those who would like to get DKH must already have KOW armies.
Like me already have Mhorgoth Rising box set and 1000pts undead army from KOW kickstarter, plus the Green Menace box.
So i have enough figures for that.
1 black & white small rule book, 2 tiles and some extra tokens, with few sprues of plastic mini and a metal mini doesn't justify the RRP of GBP25!  
Consider a dungeon crawler boardgame set with Green Menace/Dead Rising + Ancient Grudge, the total price is about GBP60. Compare this to FFG's Descent 2nd edition which is also RRP GBP60, the amount and quality of minis, tiles, tokens, rule book and quest book have totally unmatched! That's not yet mentioned the variety of game play experience with the treasure and shop item upgrade, and an narrative campaign.

Well, after a hard decision, i have to let go this Ancient Grudge box unless they will slashed down the price to about GBP15 or repackage it with more values to us.
Luckily now there is good news that the mini rule books are available as pdf download via http://www.wargamevault.com
So I will just get the pdf for Dead Rising & Ancient Grudge later and make my own dungeon tiles and tokens.
