Mantic Games Awesome Kings of War Vanguard Minis!

20/9/2018

Have you had the chance to have a look at the new Kings of War Vanguard miniatures from Mantic? There's some really awesome sculpts from a variety of races. While you're at it, check out the massive Kings of War Giant! Years ago, when Mantic first started, the plastic wasn't that great - but I hear these days it is very much improved, so I have to say that i'm tempted!

I have a giant pledge coming my way soon. Maybe I will actually have to post something to my blog at some point again. Plan on putting some of the minis to use in Dungeon Saga.

Hey Eriochrome,
Do it. I'd love to see better pics of them. Let us know when it's up. Well share it!

Got my pledge (sort of as most of it is held pack for christmas). Resins are very nice, pvc plastics biggest issue is that mold line removal is a pain. One thing that GW people would need to note is that these are still 25 mm models and have not undergone the scale creep so common with GW. Game is quite solid. It reads sort of old school but the power usage is what makes it go. Free rules and lists for like 12 factions are on the mantic website.

Aaaaah. Yes. The famous naff Mantic plastic. I don't know why they use it apart from price.
Great info on the game, thank you. Be curious to try a few of these guys to see the quality.
Thanks for commenting.
