The Walking Dead Boot Camp – Friday
Welcome to The Walking Dead Boot Camp! We're kicking things off as the Boot Campers get settled in to try and survive the zombie apocalypse.
Comment To Win Awesome Goodies This Weekend!
We're here with Mantic Games' own Ronnie Renton as well as the guys from 4Ground who will be showing off some of their excellent terrain.
The hobbying will also be supported with the aid of Army Painter!
Special Thanks To
Mantic Games - 4Ground - The Army Painter
Follow along throughout the weekend for all the Walking Dead goodness!
Blogging At This Event:
Turning Douglas Into One Of The Undead!
Hey...errr, Doug? How are you doing. Something seems a bit wrong with your eyes dude. Oh My God!
Food Time!
The walkers don't just eat brains. They also enjoy some delicious food from our local place.
People are getting stuck in before we head to the pub later!
Ronnie & Rob Teach More Boot Campers
Ronnie & Rob from Mantic Games are on hand delving into the mechanics of the game with the Boot Camp members who have popped in lately.
It's been very easy to pick up the rules and folks are beginning to learn more about the tips and tactics you need to win.
The Battlefields Of The Walking Dead: All Out War
We've been following along with some of the games already today and talking with the Boot Campers but we thought we'd also get down into the action to see how it's all coming together and get a closer look at the buildings from 4Ground.
Starter Scenario Set Up & New Box Smell Appreciated!
It might seem weird but every wargamer knows the 'new box smell'. So, we've been tinkering around with some of the tables set up by 4Ground and getting set up for folks to enjoy themselves tonight.
The Tables Are Prepared & Boxes Opened
As we mentioned we're popping open the boxes and taking a look at their contents put together by Mantic Games while Ronnie makes sure to keep the tables looking shipshape!
Its a bitter pill for me to swallow……it was this bootcamp or a new dishwasher……unfortunately the new dishwasher won (well technically the Wife won).
As if that wasn’t bad enough, the new dishwasher was delivered this afternoon and I will be going home after work shortly to install it.
Oh fate. Cruel fate. Why do you mock me so…………you b@@@@@d!
Happy wife = happy life
I understand ……sob…….. I UNDERSTAND !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s harsh. For me it was a holiday got in the way of the boot camp and who knows what blocked the Kickstarter.
Real life eh? 🙂
I can relate dude! The bootcamp started on my missus’s birthday – I did broach the subject of celebrating early but quickly realised the error of my ways! 😉
P.s. – Have a great time y’all!!!
Would love to be there. Looks awesome. Thoose tables look ace. Want a table like that at home ^^
I’d rather have a room withlike that filled with tables at home …
Have a great weekend!
Holy cow that mall is huge!
I still want to win it all! And the tables are always awesome. If I win I will massage Warren s feet!
Soooooooo jealous! Things are looking great over there. I wish airfare had been less than $1200. I will make it to a Boot Camp one of these days!
Great tables again. Really like all the cars and debris that got the dirt and grime treatment.
I went all in on the Walking Dead Kickstarter and am looking forward to seeing it played with that certain Beasts of War flair.
Oh my gosh my vicarious bootcamp experience is here! I’m there in spirit, guys!
Should’ve backed the KS
You can still run a late pledge on their Kickstarter if you like.
Awesome, so going to watch this while on my own at work tomorrow
The how to play video is really helpful.
Great looking boards and fun time playing, have to attend a bootcamp someday!
Wish I was there the tables are great. Only thing that is missing may be the soundtrack to the original Dawn of the Dead playing in the background.

Great start to the weekend, looking forward to seeing the shenanigans develop!
Has civilization broken down in the room yet? At some point the players should be looking out for their own well being over the fate of other humans!
….. Have a great time Guys!!!!!
Feel odd watching a boot camp from this side
@rasmus :c
looks great wish I could be there 😉
Some many games, not enough time
If I actually won that shopping mall I may need to consider moving to a bigger house.
@ugleb move into the Mall.
Great looking stuff. I love the set designs. Great job to all.
Gutted, I would of loved to attend this but with my life at the moment and 4 kids it was not going to happen… i think someone else has already said it happy wife = happy life. My walking dead kickstarter came through last week so will be very interested to hear how everyone gets on with it this weekend.
Have a great time all and maybe I will make it to one next year.

That beasty boy in the vest and purple shirt across the table from Dawn really needs a haircut.
Should be a great boot camp
Wish I cold have got there
