Mantic Games WD001 - Walking Dead - all Out War - Tabletop Zombie Game - Includes 28mm Miniatures x18

Product Information

All Survivors start with three health and if you want to increase that, you’ll need to add some extra points. The maximum is eight health points, which costs a whopping 20 points! We’re opting for a fairly decent five health points, which costs an extra five points. This means we’re currently sitting on a total of 35 points. The Walking Dead can be credited for revitalising the zombie genre when it appeared first as a celebrated comic and then as the long-running TV show reusing characters and recognisable narratives from the comic. The continuing narrative, focusing on a central group of survivors from the Atlanta area of the States, challenged what we would expect; here the zombies, or Walkers to those familiar with the mythos, were not villains here. Instead the regular challenges facing the survivors is the regular discovery of other groups of survivors willing to do anything to survive and scavenge the last remaining resources of food and firearms. Q: I know you currently don’t have rules for inside buildings but are considering it. Obviously most of the rules will be the same as outside for moving, melee, etc. But a couple rules for buildings will be needed. Ironically, the end of The Walking Dead has spurred me into action. It had been a long time since I had played The Walking Dead, and I was inspired again to complete my collection. One of the reasons I wasn’t playing it, as often as it deserved, was, my painting has improved massively over the last 2 years and honestly, I was a bit embarrassed to look at my The Walking Dead miniatures. Some of which had snow bases, some had grass bases. After a few nights of staying up, way too late. I now have a simple, but smart and clean style and theme. The Walking Dead: All Out War is probably one of the easiest games to play solo, as many of the narrative scenarios feature co-op or solo play rules. However, if you’ve never played All Out War, a good place to start for solo play is the Prelude to Woodbury starter set. This box set tells the story of Brian Blake, before he rose to power as the tyrannical Governor.

This expansion builds upon the rules set out in Prelude to Woodbury and introduces rules for battling an opposing team of Survivors to your solo games. The opposing team can be set up exactly as if you were playing a PvP game of All Out War, using basic AI to determine how the opponent’s Survivors will behave. HERE’S NEGANAt this point there is the drawing of a random event card that dramatically impacts on the gameplay. For example, a car alarm has gone off, drawing all the zombies towards one of the die-cut cars in a certain direction meaning that your previously “safe” spot on the table is now in the path of the hoard. Perhaps I was subconsciously surfing the zombie zeitgeist. I buy a zombie themed game and end up playing it 28 Days Later!! If you can help provide any HIGH QUALITY scans of missing cards, please get in touch with me. Here is a document detailing which cards are missing from the game currently: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FvoIP5IL0AEZL-qIdFfvk_Df3-x9x2ZAccXS244bpqo/edit?usp=sharing The setting for this beginner’s core set of the game is a street scene in Atlanta, where The Walking Dead story began. What’s it like to play? We’re going to give our Survivor Unstable (at the start of his turn we roll a blue dice to see how many actions he gets) and Distract (when performing a Noise action, this model may choose any point within six-inches from which to create the Noise). These cost a total of seven points, which puts our final tally on 42 points. Now, we just note all that on the card and write the final points tally.

Now, Here’s Negan is normally about vying for the chance to be Negan’s favourite lieutenant – so there’s a competitive edge to this co-operative game. However, it can be played totally solo, with you taking on the role of all the lieutenants… which means you’re guaranteed to be Negan’s pet. DUNGEON SAGA AND STAR SAGA The Walking Dead: All Out War is not a perfect game…but what is? It is definitely an outstanding game though and even with a re-release of Blood Bowl getting me all giddy I am proudly awarding the EH Gaming 2016/17 Game of the Year accolade to Mantic for this box of fun. I am completely hooked on it and have found myself playing the solo scenarios in lunch breaks when no-one else can be found to play with. I don’t see the novelty wearing off anytime soon either and that is the mark of a great game for me. The ongoing support with new releases has also been outstanding so this game is frequently getting a refresh and evolving. The 5-year contract between Mantic games and Skybound games is coming to an end. The Walking Dead lives on, on TV but the original series is also ending. The comics (on which the games are based) has finished (rather oddly, in my humble opinion) so, rather than renew a presumably expensive contract, perhaps it is a logical time to bring the Walking Dead games to an end.A: Yes, they are standard industry sizes – 3.5″ x 2.5″ for event cards, and half that size for equipment.
