Warlord Games new debris available on pre-order
« on: July 20, 2020, 06:06:31 AM »
I thought it might be worth mentioning here, some new battlefield debris coming from Warlord Games. Whilst not necessarily intended for post-Apoc I think it might do very well, especially for Fallout inspired games given the vintage aesthetics.

I think these a repackaged items from Mantig Games' "Terrain Crate"
I like my games like my orange juice: pulpy with no added sugar or artificial sweeteners

Definitely of interest, but that price seems WAY higher that I would expect for what I shown.  Am I missing something?

Was wondering the same, expected a price of around £25 then saw the price...

For that price you have a playable army these days so will probably pass on those.

That does seem to be very expensive

Ouch! I did not spot the price. Yeah that is steep. I am unaware of Warlord reboxing Mantic items. Has that been happening?

Really nice stuff, personally I’m not too put off by the price.
But as someone else has said I’m pretty sure it’s just a Mantic Terrain Crate with warlord plastered over it.

I suspect that if this is Mantic stuff then that would explain the price. I've never bought any of their terrain sets as they're far too expensive for my taste.

At least there's a pinned thread here for all sorts of furniture (ruined and not) which would be suitable.

I think the Terrain Crate Kickstarters are quite good value for money, you get quite a lof of stuff in one box. The retail pricing for this set is indeed on the high side.

It's standard for Warlord to be honest - buy up a company or range, re-box and hike the price.

If it is the mantic stuff - which I'm sure it is, then it will at the very least be good quality. I've got the original dungeon furniture kits from mantic and they're nice, heavy plastic.

But still, the prices coming out of warlord recently make games workshop look reasonable.

It does look like some of the bits from Mantic's most recent TerrainCrate kickstarter. I definitely see the same crashed motorcycle as well as the sofa and chair as what I received from Mantic.
