Ronnie Chats About The Basics Of The Walking Dead: All Out War
January 7, 2016 by brennon
Following the announcement that Mantic Games now have the license to create a miniatures game based on The Walking Dead comics Ronnie has popped up on Youtube to talk more about the game. Check out the video above...
In short...
- The game will feature gangs of characters facing off over scarce resources
- There are loads of amazing miniatures planned for the characters of the comics and zombies
- Death could well be a running theme throughout - it isn't called All Out War for no reason!
Read the Press Release here.
We'll talk more about the game as we get information from Mantic AND Ronnie might be popping up on a certain show this weekend to talk more about the game and show off some sneak previews.
Are you getting behind this game?

Love TWD and love plastics. I’m definitely giving this a go.
the idea sounds promising. I love the comics, I’m not so sure about the tv show. The Idea to raid an area and look for some loot, while ‘fighting’ another group and dodging zombies make for a fun game pending on some details. I hope they not only make named characters I would prefer to have the option and build my own group. Just like back in the day with mortheim. And if I understand Ronnie correct running around and engage in ‘all out war’ will result in zombies overrunning you, I like that idea. Terrain wise you would have… Read more »
Agree with all of that. This could be the game that my recently kickstartered Battlesystems Apoc terrain was made for !!!!
Omg.. the Battle System stuff would be ideal indeed! I would have backed the KS had I known this game will come out..darn.
Anyhow, I’m really excited about this although I myself actually prefer the TV show to the comic books..
I only hope Mantic won’t use cheap quality soft plastic for this. This deserves proper hard stuff!
@suetoniuspaullinus You just cost me 88£. Had a 1£ pledge to follow the KS. … now I added on a City Block!
Thanks.
the figures look good and the game sound very interesting.
We’re 7 days into 2016 and everything’s coming up milhouse! Very much looking forward to this.
Besides having the Walking Dead IP, I wonder what Mantic is going to do to separate their zombie game from others such as Zed or Alive and Zombicide. I just hope that Mantic doesn’t get distracted with this new game and forget about us KoW, DS, Deadzone, and Warpath fans/players/backers. Mantic has already promised us a lot of things for 2016.
Although of course I’ve heard of the Walking Dead, I’ve not (yet?) read or watched it, but this still sounds interesting.
No mention of Kickstarter either – I wonder if this means Mantic are taking this direct to retail? (Not that I have anything against them using KS, it’s just interesting if they’re not doing it with this.)
It will be on kickstarter, in a month or so.
Definitely a kickstarter I will be looking at closely.
As they already own the license a KS seems somewhat strange..what if would fail? Plus the release is already announced for late ’16.
