30th Sep 2026

This November, we're releasing Warpath Universe: Command Protocols, a major new book that brings together all of the updated rules for Deadzone and Firefight, the FULL Nameless army list for both games, and expanded army choices for Epic Warpath. Designed as a companion volume for players across the entire Warpath range, Command Protocols represents the next step in our ongoing support for Mantic's science-fiction universe.

One Universe, Multiple Ways to Enjoy It!
One of the strengths of the Warpath Universe is that you can experience conflicts at different scales.
From the brutal close-quarters combat of Deadzone, to the squad-level engagements of Firefight, and the sweeping planetary invasions of Epic Warpath, every battle forms part of a larger story.
Command Protocols has been created with exactly that goal in mind.
Inside the book you'll find new content and updates designed to support every corner of the Warpath Universe, ensuring your favourite game continues to evolve alongside the expanding range of miniatures and stories.
Firefight and Deadzone Updates
Veteran commanders can look forward to a full rulebook update for both Firefight and Deadzone previously available via the Companion.
We'll be previewing some of these changes over the coming weeks, alongside designer insights and a faction spotlight on the newest Firefight army: The Nameless (Who may or may not now have names...!).

Every Epic Warpath Army Gets Reinforcements
One of the most exciting elements of Command Protocols is the inclusion of new units for every Epic Warpath army.
That's right.
Every existing Epic Warpath faction will gain access to new units!
We'll leave the specifics for future reveals, but expect everything from powerful support elements to devastating front-line units capable of changing the course of a battle.
If you've already begun building your Epic Warpath forces, you're going to want to keep a close eye on the reveals ahead.
The Warpath Universe Continues to Grow
Command Protocols arrives alongside one of the biggest waves of Warpath Universe releases we've undertaken. Many of you have already seen glimpses of what's coming, but November will also see the arrival of the long-awaited 28mm Nameless Army.

The Nameless have lurked in the shadows of the Warpath setting for years, manipulating events from behind the scenes and spreading their influence across the galaxy. Soon, they'll be stepping fully into the spotlight.
We've got plenty more to show before launch, and trust us when we say that Nameless fans are going to be very happy.
Mark Your Calendars: Warpath Universe Pre-Orders Open 2nd November
The countdown is officially underway.
Between now and then we'll be rolling out a steady stream of reveals, previews, faction spotlights, painted miniatures, lore articles, and designer insights.
If you are more of an Epic Warpath fan, or backed the Kickstarter - watch out next week for more of a focus just for you too. Over the coming couple of months you'll see coverage from some of our favourite content creators, podcasters, YouTubers, streamers, and community champions as they begin diving into what's coming next for the Warpath Universe.

The galaxy is about to get a lot more dangerous.
