GenCon 2023 Preview

28th Jul 2023

Jonny Mann




Martin here!

Before Ronnie, Kyle, Pat and I head to Gen Con next week, I wanted to share with you some of the fun activities we have going on over that weekend.

Gen Con, the largest and longest-running tabletop gaming convention in North America, returns next weekend (Aug 3rd – 6th) expected to attract a unique attendance of over 50,000 gaming fans for four days of playing games, shopping in the exhibit hall, cosplaying and connecting with fans from around the world.


Demo Games

Ever wanted to learn to play another of our amazing games?

Of course, you have… So come over to the event hall and one of our amazing Pathfinders will run you through Kings of War, Armada, Firefight, Deadzone and Hellboy! These are set to be very popular and most spots are selling out fast but we still have some spaces left, so make sure you book yourself a spot!

Book your tickets here.

But that’s not all,


Show Exclusives

Over on booth 633, we will be running demos all weekend of our brand-new and addictively playable dice games, Invincible and The Walking Dead. You will also be able to pick up these limited edition pre-release versions of the games which both contain limited edition bonus cards, from the booth.

For those unable to attend GenCon, don’t panic as you can pick them up from our webstore for a limited time HERE.


Amazing Deals

We will also have all the latest and greatest Mantic releases and as always we will have incredible deals galore to keep your hobby and gaming tables busy. Maybe you’ve had your eye on the stunning new Frostclaw Riders or the fearsome Abyssal Dwarf fleet, or perhaps you will be hooked on Firefight having experienced a demo game!


And as always, the marketing teams well oiled plan to release news in an organised and timely fashion can be destroyed if you ply Ronnie with enough booze, compliments or sugary treats and allow him to spill all the beans on what the future holds!

We can’t wait to see you there, be sure to come say hi!
