More The Walking Dead: All Out War Questions Answered
January 17, 2016 by brennon
Mantic Games have shown off another character from their upcoming miniatures game, The Walking Dead: All Out War. As well as that they have tried to answer as many questions as possible for you so you can get a better handle on how the game will eventually turn out. Find out more HERE.
While all of the upcoming comic book characters are awesome I do like that they apparently working on a system for you to create your own survivors. Maybe that means we'll be seeing a kit to build your own too.
The team also went into more detail as to how the game plays and what you can do with the likes of terrain and the mats supplied. Well, thankfully it isn't tied to the mats but they make an excellent quick landscape for you to fight over.
Have you been drawn in by the lure of The Walking Dead?

It has a lot of similar mechanics to the Ambush Alley ‘Zombie’ add-on for FoF. There is also some similarities with ‘All Things Zombie’. Both excellent games.
However, I will still give it a look at – it might be fun.
Hmm… Another Kickstarter and this Q/A made me laugh in that ‘You effing what?!’ sort of way:
Q: How many people have you got proof reading the rules?
A: A rigorous editing process will be undertaken with 5 internal editors, plus we will have a public playtest. Finally, our translation partners will also review the rules as they translate it – a process we found incredibly useful during Dungeon Saga.
Guess Skybound never heard about the ‘proofreading’ for Dungeon Saga’s Adventurer’s Companion… 😉
I’m not keen on that sculpt – I don’t like the same side leg and arm forward at the same time as it is unnatural.
Of course it is…never seen the video for ‘once in a lifetime’?

…52 seconds in!
I don’t get the negative vibe tbh..it’s The Walking Dead!
I’m totally convinced this is gonna be a great game. I’m certainly a fanboy of the IP I know but I don’t think Mantic can afford a cock up here..!
I only know Mars Attacks and Dungeon Saga as I am not too interested in the other stuff but I like both games quite a bit and am fairly sure Mantic can pull it off.
I will definitely back this.

It’s plastic mate, you can always re-arrange the arms 😉
A friend of mine bought DS and have problems with the bendy plastics, he tried the classic with heat and icecold water, but after a few days the miniatures are bent again.
Any advice?
I used boiling water straight from the kettle to reshape the minis and so far they’ve stayed put. If the water wasn’t very hot though, some of the minis did revert back to their malformed state after re-positioning. A dunk in freshly boiled water cured this.
I hope you get them sorted out one way or another.
Thanks for the advice.
No problem.
Another bloody Kickstarter. I’m out.
