Just What Is The Mantic Games Terraincrate Teaser All About?
March 28, 2017 by brennon
Mantic Games teased something new over on Social Media this week with this teaser image popping up for Terraincrate...
According to the comments from the community, this isn't a subscription service but it could indeed be something for the future of Dungeon Saga which would make sense.
Whatever form it takes these terrain pieces look great as a teaser of what lies ahead. I really like the sword in the stone and the ramshackle pile of armour.
Will you be keeping an eye out as to just what this is?

Okay…
It’s Mantic. It involves dungeons in a fantasy setting. They already have a fantasy dungeon game with lots of expansions (which I have all of).
This stuff is completely new, there aren’t even rules for any of those pieces in DS.
So, is this more expansion material? A re-done Adventurers Companion? Dungeon Saga 2.0?
I hate teasers sometimes…
Ohhh all I want from Mantic is a new Adventures Companion !!!
Maybe it’s like the Battlezones/Deadzone terrain, but for fantasy.
I would totally get behind a Battlezones Fantasy project.
I’m always up for some Dungeon Scenery! But I think what they really need to do is a second edition of the Dungeon Saga rules to put it more in line with what Space Saga is purporting to be. At present each quest has been written and balanced for a very specific set of characters whereas Star Saga is designed to let you build a squad of any characters you like.
It could be something more like the crates in various video games where it’s a few random pieces of terrain that you could get. Perhaps with order sizes of certain tiers, you get different numbers of crates (Perhaps split up between different genres [Fantasy, Modern, and SciFi] that Mantic has stuff for). Something to make it a bit more tempting to order from them rather than other ways.
On their facebook page they say “nearly” when someone asks about Dungeon Saga expansion… but then also don’t say nope to someone asking about a sci-fi version… my guess is a bundle of random terrain pieces.. probably with fantasy and sci fi versions… terraincrate or terrainspotting don’t sound like new games IMHO… maybe this is their first foray into their Resin Kits that they’ve been talking about (and showed a Treant type figure I think)… ?? ??
