Deadzone’s Gaming Mat Is Unlocked Smashing $300,000

May 3, 2013 by brennon

Mantic Games' Deadzone has hit $300,000 and that has unlocked their brand spanking new gaming mat which will be added to all Strike Team pledges. Check it out...

Some details on the mat itself... - It rolls up. - Doesn’t crease when it’s folded. - Doesn’t slip off the table. - It’s durable - you won’t get any tearing or fraying. - Can be put down next to other mats to form a 4’x6’ or 4’x4’ gaming area. So if you want to have a neat play area for Deadzone, and any other game you could think of, then it might be an idea to bump up those pledges. The future holds more stretch goals too like this fellow...

A Sci-Fi Chaos Dwarf who will be selling his abilities to the highest bidder! Pretty awesome I say. Shadrek Mal-Raz will be available once the campaign gets to $315,000.

Also you can watch some gameplay videos for Deadzone above! How do you think the campaign is progressing?

Oh please dear big cheese in the sky let that be so.
No more Mesopotamian facial hair styling and garb for the duergar
No more pushing GWs interpretation (ditto for slayers/berserker dwarves)

Time to move on.

When I found the Kickstarter, I was most excited by the Deadzone scenery, and now with these gaming mats, I anticipate wiping the plague out of WHOLE CITIES (or at least 8’x8′ terrain maps)! These maps and scenery also work great for other sci-fi wargames or some intense role-playing. Deadzone just keeps offering more and more to the players!

They did mention that there would be a scenery only pledge at some stage. I know a few friends waiting on the fence for this one!! So I hope it is soon. 😀

They have stated a scenery only pledge plus more scenery add-ons are on the way. Iirc, they are waiting to finalise the different sprues and get costings back from the manufacturer, but think it will be soon 🙂

Not sure they mentioned scenery only yet. I already put the money in for 5 more mats. Im at strike level, so i get one for free 🙂

That mat looks amazing and very reusable in any other sci-fi or even modern wargame! I will probably use it for Relic Knights, maybe buy three more just to get a 4×4′

The mats look like mouse pads… which is perfect! They are also great for rolling dice on.

I’d be in on a scenery only pledge. I’d think they should get that up there sooner rather than later because it would bump those totals, in my opinion. It’d also get more people jumping on the bandwagon when they see that pledge total rocket.
