Mantic vs GW Vampire army price comparison

Ben Curry — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 12:32:54 +0000

So after our interview with Ronnie from Mantic Games I thought I would do a quick price comparison.

So i’ll start with the easy one, the Mantic Games MALAK’S LEGION OF DEATH – ARMY DEAL. This box set comes in at £99 on the Mantic webstore and an additional Ghoul Troop deal for £20.

That gives you the following stuff.

Vampire on winged nightmare/hellsteed
2x Vampires on foot
Wight King BSB
Wight King on foot

50 Ghouls
40 Skellies
40 Grave Guard
5 Black knights
5 Wraiths

So using 4 of the characters (Lord on foot, Vamp on foot, Vamp on Hellsteed and a Wight BSB) and all the troops, with relevant command group upgrades, the army comes in at 2350 points. THATS WITH NO MAGIC ITEMS OR POWERS!! So throw in a couple of hundred points worth of magic trinkets and powers (that could be as much as 600 points if you really wanted!) and you get either a 2500 point army, or you can scale the troops back to 2250 and have lots spare to raise with.

So now i’m going to have a look at the equivalent GW stuff.

Starting with the characters.

You get a Blood Dragon on winged nightmare, Konrad and Manfred on foot, The aristocratic Lady vampire, and a Wight BSB.

The troops are 5 boxes of ghouls, 4 boxes of skellies and 4 boxes of Grave guard, 5 Black knights and 5 Wraiths.

All of that comes in at £342.50. You can save yourself a bit of cash by dropping the winged nightmare down to a Mounted Manfred (use it as a hellsteed still), and using chaos knight instead of black knights (converting them with some random ghoul and skellies bitz) it comes down to £311. I looked at using the battalion boxes to bring the price down more but it includes zombies and a corpse cart so wouldn’t make a good comparison.

So on a £vs£ comparison you are looking at £119 vs £311.

With the Mantic stuff you also get Free foam carry cases, posters, the Mantic points system and You also get 2 Screaming skull catapults (incase you decide to do tomb kings too)

The main problem that Mantic has at the moment is a lack of Zombies,(which are in the pipeline) Dire wolves and fellbats. But there is nothing stopping you using the Games workshop range to fill the gaps.

You can buy both of these armies for 15% off RRP at www.OGGames.co.uk

Episode 37 – Mantic Games

Ben Curry — Tue, 08 Jun 2010 16:23:55 +0000

In Episode 37 we pay a visit to Mantic Towers and chat with Ronnie Renton about their fantastic range of Fantasy miniatures. Its also magazine time and we look at Tales of Battle, Unseen Lerker and White Dwarf.

We Launch 2 new competitions, first up you can win a copy of 8th edition by writing a battle report and posting it on the Snake eyes or Og Games forums.

New Warhammer rulebook pics in newsletter

Ben Curry — Wed, 26 May 2010 08:41:22 +0000

From the GW Newsletter:

New Warhammer: almost here!

Since we announced the new edition of Warhammer back in April, the excitement has been slowly building. Across the land hobbyists have begun gathering their forces in preparation of the mighty battles that lie ahead; in hushed whispers they’ve talked about what might lie within the 528-pages of the new Warhammer rulebook. Well prepare to ramp your excitement up a notch – Warhammer will be available to advance order from the 15th of June. Inspired by the clockwork creations of the engineers of Altdorf, we’ve today added a swish countdown clock to games-workshop.com, so you’ll know exactly how many minutes and seconds to go before you can order your copy.

To thank you for subscribing to our newsletter (these images won’t be shown anywhere else!) we thought we’d give you a sneak peek inside the new book. And don’t forget that June’s issue of White Dwarf is out this weekend and contains more exclusive information and pictures from the new Warhammer rulebook.

Enjoy.

Rankings HQ

Ben Curry — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 12:32:59 +0000

Bad Dice are pleased to announce the launch of a brand new international rankings web site:- www.rankingshq.com.

Members of the Rankings HQ team have been developing and running rankings systems for the past 10 years however recently the focus has shifted to offering a more complete online service that players of games around the world can benefit from.

The result is an online international gaming portal where players of various game systems and different countries can have a single site that lists all the results, articles, clubs and tournaments they are interested in. Players are able to create and update their RHQ profile for free giving them the ability to network with other players instantly via the “friends” and messaging functionality as well as stay abreast of the happenings in their areas of interest via the event calendar and news feed engine.

The initial launch of the site includes Warhammer Fantasy for the United Kingdom, Australia, United States and New Zealand with Warhammer 40K and Flames of War game systems to be launched soon. There are also several countries preparing data that will be added to RHQ in the near future.

Development of Rankings HQ is ongoing and new functionality will be released on a regularly basis both planned and based on player feedback.

If you have existing results in Rankings HQ, you will be able to link it to your new profile during the registration process.

Head over to www.rankingshq.com, register and join in the fun.

I will be the administrator for the UK so if you have any problems just contact bencurry@rankingshq.com

Regards,

Ben Curry

Rankings Engine Changes for 2010

Ben Curry — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 13:38:29 +0000

The Warhammer Fantasy rankings have adapted and grown in the UK over the last 2 years. Each year the Irresistible Force and Bad Dice team analyse the previous year’s data along with the growth and trends of the scene to see whether any adjustments are required to better represent the following year’s tournament results. As the system matures there is less need to make changes and as a result the 2009 rankings system remained unchanged from the year before. However this year we have experienced a tremendous amount of growth in both the Australian and UK Warhammer Fantasy tournament scenes. I have held discussions with many players and TOs throughout 2009 and gleaned what I could from the countless emails I receive each year with suggestions and queries from players. My goal is to ensure the rankings system is as good a fit for the tournament scene as possible and for it to be a fair, just and equitable representation of a player’s achievements at tournaments they attend throughout the year. So after much consideration the following change will be incorporated into the Bad Dice Warhammer Fantasy rankings for 2010.

100 Rankings Points Threshold

With the increase in popularity of tournaments in general we find ourselves in the situation where more and more events are offering the maximum of 100 rankings points. In just a few years we have progressed from having 10 tournaments that reached the 50 player threshold in 2008 to the 14 we had in 2009 and now 2010 promises to have even more with alot of the current 50+ player events expanding to be closer to 100 players.

A bi-product of this trend is the reduction in the spread of scores for players across the spectrum and a positive skew of the distribution towards the top end. This trend will continue as tournaments around the country continue to grow in size. The feeling is a slight increase in the 100 rankings point threshold will relieve the pressure on the system and provide some room for the rankings engine to grow as the tournament scene does.

For 2010 the number of players required to enable the awarding of 100 rankings points to the winner will be set at 60. This will be in effect immediately following the conclusion of the 2009 tournament season.

Beastmen on the way!

Ben Curry — Sun, 15 Nov 2009 20:43:51 +0000

Games Workshop have released information on the Warhammer Armies: Beastmen

In the dark places of the world, the Beastmen have been gathering in number and in February they will unleash their rage on the Warhammer world with renewed vigour. A feral army of twisted monsters, the Beastmen have inhabitant the dark forests and wild places of the world since such places existed. To lead a Beastmen army is to field vast herds of braying, brutish beasts who worship Chaos in all its forms, and who fight to level the civilised world.

This will be the first time ever that the Beastmen have had their own, completely stand-alone, army list. The forthcoming Warhammer Armies: Beastmen is full of twisted monsters old and new, and an all-new lore of magic. The Beastmen are the original inhabitants of the Old World: in February 2010 they come to reclaim it from the hands of Men.
