We really hope that you've been keeping safe in these challenging times. Hopefully you've been using it as an opportunity to get some extra hobby time in and finally finish that army you've always been meaning to. Here at Mantic a number of us have also been busy with some hobby projects - make sure you keep checking the Facebook page for vlogs and progress reports.
Also, to help keep you entertained, we've been making some rules and books free to download from the Mantic website. After all, if you're stuck in the house, you may as well have something to do! Check out the links below to see what you can download.
FIRST STRIKE - WARPATH NOVEL
When a backwater world is invaded by ruthless aliens, the Drakenhof Corporation's best marines are sent to repel them. But they are not the only interested parties, and the Council has also sent Lieutenant Commander Roca of the Enforcers to investigate. Why has Acreon been targeted by the Veer-myn? And what secrets are hidden beneath the planet's surface that, if uncovered, could threaten the stability of the galaxy itself?
Project Pandora was one of the first board games Mantic ever produced. Set aboard an abandoned spaceship, it pits the heroic GCPS against the insidious Veer-myn in a BATTLE TO THE DEATH! This week, we've made the updated rules available to download for FREE! You'll just need a copy of Star Saga: The Eiras Contract and a few extra minis to play.
Need your Deadzone fix but have no one else to play with? Nexus Psi is here to save the day! Quite literally, really, as it features a desperate campaign against AI-controlled Plague! You can play the scenarios in Nexus Psi completely solo - so it's perfect if you're stuck inside but still want some gaming.
Make sure you keep your eye on Mantic's social media to see what other free giveaways we come up with next week.
VIRTUAL ADEPTICON
Sadly this weekend would have normally been Adepticon (with Salute just around the corner) and we tend to enjoy revealing lots of lovely new minis at these shows. So, instead of actually being at Adepticon, we're hosting a virtual Adepticon full of new reveals and sneak peeks.
Yesterday we had the Deadzone preview and we've got plenty more lined up over the coming days. Make sure you tune in at 6pm to our YouTube Channel! In fact some of the links are live now, so you can sit and patiently stare at your computer screen.
ADEPTICON MEGACAST - you provided the questions and we provide the answers (mostly). Ronnie and the team gather for a mighty podcast of JUSTICE. We apologise now for the fact it sounds like Ronnie is running through a wind tunnel while recording. Goes live 6pm (GMT) March 27th
KINGS OF WAR 2020 PREVIEW - Ronnie talks all about Kings of War and has some very exciting reveals of new miniatures coming up this summer. Goes live 6pm (GMT) March 28th.
But that's not all. Tune in at 6pm on Sunday for a Vanguard preview and 6pm on Monday for a chat about The Walking Dead.
COVID-19 UPDATE
In line with the current UK government's advice to encourage online sales, our online store is still open and we're continuing to send web orders. The majority of Mantic staff that can work from home have been doing so five days before before the recommendation, while the warehouse is on a skeleton staff of just three people (with everyone working in a separate part of the, very large, warehouse).
We're ensuring there's absolutely zero contact with anyone else - in line with the government's social distancing advice. We are also going above and beyond guidelines for maintaining safety when picking and packing orders too - to ensure the wellbeing of our customers as well.
We'd like to take this opportunity to thank the Mantic staff for continuing to work during this difficult time and for the community for all their support and best wishes.
Of course, it's an ever-changing situation and we're continuing to monitor government advice. Also, please be aware that web orders may take a little longer to ship and arrive.
WEB DEALS
While many of us are stuck inside, we know that there's nothing quite like receiving a big box of toy soldiers to cheer you right up. The joy of browsing and choosing your new goodies is a great distraction from whatever is going on in the real world.
So, with that in mind, we've packed the Mantic website with a load of great offers on digital products (so you don't even need to wait for delivery), DreadBall teams, The Walking Dead and loads more.
Plus we're keeping the free shipping minimum as low as we can for website orders. If you spend £25/€30/$50, you'll qualify for free shipping on your order. T&Cs do apply.
