Its a nice twist having mankind being the oppressor, I like it, I’d still like to see fishmen though.
In Space, obviously.
@nogginthenog You mean… In Spaaaaaace… do you not?
Of course, sometimes I dont know my A’s from my elbow
Will there be undead in SPAAAAAACE…?
Space zombie!
In Space, nobody can hear you moan for Brains! 😉
Expansion lead by a company that seeks to use aliens as shock troopers that backfires on them. I like it, Its a bit like Weyland Yutani from the Alien films but in space! Wait a second…
I’m really liking what’s being given out so far, the marauders in particular seem to click, and itself creates the chance of split factions, the younger/more mercenary groups that fight for whoever pays them and slightly older or more traditional ones that wont have anything to do with the corporation that oppressed them in the past through to the outright unimaginative ones that might have even stayed with the corporation. Lots of options coming up in my head for themes for armies and battles from just the basic outline of a few races: A corporation officer is ordered to take his forces and wipe out a planet that’s been settled independently of the corporation by hippies or something and decides not too, then his boss sends another less scrupulous officer to deal with the first one then wipe out the hippies and the second officer decides “y’know I don’t think I’ll risk some of my less proven troopers deciding the first guy is right” so he hires a bunch of merc marauders or calls in a favour or tax tithe from the forgefathers etc to bolster the units he knows absolutely will side with him.
Its the tiny little concepts that just burst into a big idea and a story, that maybe you couldn’t do in other more established backgrounds, that have me excited about warpath so much right now.
I like the background quite a lot. It’s really clever to create parallels to our history. It does make actions by the different factions more believable. The Marauders sound a bit like Celtic or Germanic warriors trained by the Romans only to turn on them. Arminius anyone?
I am very hopeful that you guys will have a completely Alien race, something from the dark depths of space to strike fear into the corporation and not just “Bugs in Space”
Forge Fathers all the way! I need Dwarves in Spaaaace! 😀
LOL so that is where the Marauders come from, they got some tech stuff from the Humans lol. BTW… I heard “Big Coorperation” and I could almost feel “Games Workshop” hehehehe.
Only one thing is more fun then having hyperactive Super Midgets With the Strength of an Ogre and an Napoleon complex towards everything taller then them, and that is having hyperactive Super Midgets with the Strength of an Ogre and an Napoleon complex towards everything that is taller then them IN SPACE!
Love the background guys! having something you can relate to in history really helps with the feel of the game. I especially like the idea of the (Evil)british empire in space..sorry SPAAAAACE!
I don’t know about British Empire, it sounds more like the American “manifest destiny.” We thought it was gods will that we go west and kill/convert the natives. Plus huge corporations controlling everything is very US too.
While the humans sound okay, but again I’m not too thrilled with orx no matter how you spell them. Why do they have to be green? Why not brown, red, blue! The idea of rebel slave race sounds cool but why not a different ork-like alien? It would have been a cool twist if they were actually technologically superior than humans but lost only due to low numbers or bad luck. So far it still just seems alternative 40k.
Nice stuff – love the concept of the Forgefathers. Epic to see Norse mythology slipping into the sci-fi setting. Kinda reminds me of Too Human, that video game which kinda bombed lol – obviously this won’t, but its pretty epic to see more interesting ways of telling the Sci-Fi story.
This is good. I like this direction.
Alessio mentions hordes of less advanced natives charging at the corporation trooper’s “thin red line (in SPAAAACE)”. Does this mean we’ll see a new race that is analogus to the Zulu?
In SPAAAAAAACE!
The fluff is what is gonna make this game for me something I will or won’t play. Will be glad when we have more details. And hopefully in a book this time.
I love Warpath because everything is better in space.
Oops, wrong comment section.
Hmmm, mean humans in space? Love it!
Is the 8th race the FNORD?
I love it! Im glad you guys recognize that you cant have a game with no substance. No offense to KoW, but it seems like you were just working to get a fantasy game out there without much behind it. This one seems like you are recognizing the needs for development everywhere.
The idea of the space dwarfs being an ancient advanced civilization is great because that’s how most of us would identify them. As apposed to making them a planet of short mutant humans. Your idea for the Orx is cool too. The corporation tried to weaponize them (which is a very human thing) and it got out of control.
I am excited to learn more about the other races and see the minis in the future. Everytime i follow this stuff i get more and more enthusiastic about it.
The British Empire…yeah…doesn’t exactly fill me with pride…but we did teach the Indians how to play cricket 🙂
Impressed! I don’t really see the humans as the bad guys though… We’re really just doing what everyone else would do, if they had the technology to do it.
I am sooo glad to hear the Orx are going to have some level of intelligence comparable to humans!
Sounds good. Particularly like the sound of a selection of allied/mercenary alien units to add a wee bit of variety to your main army. Let’s us get something a bit different from our main force but still usable and let’s Mantic try out some more off the wall designs and rules.
Also, does this mean we can look forward to a character mini Michael Caine in Spaaaaace for the Corp redcoats?
I can see it:
The Marauders are approaching. The Chief shouts: USUTHU! The Marauders run towards the Corp position.
The remainings of the Corporation army are behind a wall of sandbags, and then, the officeer shouts: FIRE!
