    really boring and obvious move for Mantic.
    As boring as GW speeding up their release of the Skin Wolves in a try to profit from the fact that Mantic has not released werewolves?

    @Gomez... at one point you were going to go to Mantic for a visit/pick up some stuff. Did you ever make it? Just wondered if you saw anything rumour-worthy
    It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye... and then it's just fun!

    I was, and then I realised that Mantic weren't based in the center of Nottingham, and instead based somewhere a fair way away - no Mantic based rumours from me.

    Although I am curious as to whats happening with the Hasslefree sets.

    Me too. I picked up the first few sets(very nice minis by the way), in the hopes that we might see some rules or something for a game of women and children vs zombies. Nothing happened though.

    Some of the planned mini sets never materialized either.

    Mantic released 5 Hasslefree Adventurers boxed sets:

    -Lady Soldiers (also released as a larger value set)
    -Juveniles
    -Femme Fatales
    -Girls with Guns
    -Zombie Hunters

    That's it. The last set was released quite some time ago now.

    However if we get into our "Way Back When" machine and look in issue#2 of the Mantic Journal, we find a nice article in there about the Hasslefree sets which includes mention of one for "Cops" and shows a photo of a mini of a police officer armed with a shotgun that wasn't in any of the released sets.

    So there were plans for at least one more set at one time anyway.

    New video over on BoW about the Corporation with Ronnie.

    Next wave of planned releases (currently at the concept stage)

    - Corporation Star Commandos (not a final name).. fully-powered-armoured in suits with heavy weapons.
    - Corporation APC
    - Corporation Tank (based on the APC chassis)

    All of that planned for later this year after the Warpath 2.0 launch.

    Am I recalling my rumors correctly that Z'zor is up next after Veer-myn?

    I was just listening to those new interviews with Ronnie over at BoW and in one of them he said something, rather offhandedly, that could possibly indicate that The Plague will be the next Warpath race.

    At one of Mantics events last year Ronnie mentioned that any Warpath tanklike vehicles that they do, would have to be done in resin, and that they wouldn't be inexpensive.

    And before people start the old it should be plastic rant, remember that it takes a lot of money to make a plastic mold. It's another case of it'll have to be resin, and Mantic will make a little money off it, or it won't happen at all and no money will be made.

    Probably because leveraging preexisting zombie/ghoul models is faster than designing the z'zor from scratch.

    God I hope they don't use half zombie/ghoul sprues and half new. I like the zombies, but I do have 100 ish to paint.

    At Warpath launch day in the seminar Ronnie said that this was in pole position to be the 4th released race.
