The best sci-fi skirmish game is about to get better. Over the weekend we announced Deadzone: Third Edition and it’s coming sooner than you think. Heading straight to retail from October 25th, this is promising to be our biggest Deadzone launch ever… with a new starter set, rulebook pack, terrain, minis and lots, lots more.
NEW TWO-PLAYER STARTER SET
The new two-player starter set is absolutely PACKED with Deadzone goodness. Featuring the courageous GCPS facing off against the insidious Veer-myn, the starter set is the perfect introduction to the game. Includes all of the below:
- Rulebook pack (core rulebook, force lists book and token sheet)
- Starter leaflet
- 10x GCPS Troopers
- 1x GCPS Hero
- 10x Veer-Myn Nightcrawlers
- 2x Veer-Myn Nghtmares
- 1x Veer-Myn Hero
- 12 bags of Battlezones scenery, including the all-new Battlezones Street Accessories
- Paper Gaming Mat
- 8x Command Dice
- 8x D8
The starter set is crammed with 12 bags of fantastic hard plastic Battlezones scenery, including the all-new Street Accessories pack. This can be used to give your gaming table a cyberpunk vibe, as the you fight through the streets of Magnetar Central.
NEW RULEBOOK BUNDLE
If you’re a Deadzone veteran and just want the new rules, don’t worry because we’ve got you covered with a fresh rulebook pack. We’ve spread the rules over two gorgeous books full of new art, lore and, of course, rules!
- Core Rulebook – this is where you’ll find all the rules, scenarios, keywords and a campaign mode
- Force Lists – this is where you’ll find the stats for all 10 factions
The bundle also comes with an updated token sheet. If you’d like to hear about some of the changes in Third Edition, watch the video below or keep checking the Mantic Blog.
NEW MINIS
Over the coming months, we’ll be releasing brand-new models for ALL the Deadzone factions. Admittedly, it may take us a while but new stuff is coming. We’re starting with some reinforcements for the two factions featured in the starter set: GCPS and Veer-myn.
NEW STARTER SETS
We’re also revising the existing starter sets and boosters to make them more affordable and easier to collect. At launch we’ll have new starters for GCPS, Veer-myn, Asterians, Enforcers and Forge Fathers.
NEW TERRAIN!
Want to give your Deadzone table a fresh new look? The Deadzone Terrain Booster comes packed with hard plastic terrain, including the all-new Street Accessories set.
ENTER THE DEADZONE
Deadzone takes place in containment zones – cities or whole planets that have been erased from planetary maps and left for dead. You control an elite team of soldiers ready to enter the potentially lethal Deadzone and scavenge for whatever lucrative resources you can find. But competition is fierce, and other Strike Teams will be out to thwart you on your mission. Get in, get out, get rich, or get dead.
CINEMATIC, IMMERSIVE GAMEPLAY
Deadzone uses an innovative cube-based system for movement and shooting. Throw your tape measures in the garbage because you’re never going to need them again! Apart from DIY, of course. Models can be moved anywhere in a cube, which ensures you can make the best use of cover and obstacles to avoid the enemy, and movement takes seconds, rather than minutes. Shooting is just the same – measure the distance in cubes and, if you can see it, you can shoot it! Wargaming has never been this fast or cinematic.
MORE THAN 5 YEARS OF RULES DEVELOPMENT
Since the release of Deadzone: Second Edition in 2016, we’ve been refining the rules to make them faster and more streamlined. Third Edition incorporates all the changes and improvements made in the previous Outbreak and Escalation supplements, along with a host of other refinements. This is the Deadzone you love… just better. If you’ve never played before… well you’ve just found your new favourite game.
TWO BOOKS TO RULE THEM ALL
We’ve split the rules across two books that are packed with art, pictures and more. The core rulebook contains all the rules you need to start playing, along with campaign rules and 16(!) scenarios. Meanwhile, the Force List book contains the individual profiles and stats for each faction, along with details of how to build your Strike Teams and a handy weapons guide… after all, you don’t want to take a knife to a Polaris Cannon fight.
10 UNIQUE FACTIONS
Deadzone features 10 unique factions to choose from:
- Asterians – aloof aliens that use incredibly advanced androids and mechs to bring balance to the galaxy… no matter the cost
- Enforcers – the ruthless army of the Council of Seven, used to stamp out insurrection and control the Deadzones with extreme prejudice
- Forge Fathers – an ancient race of stoic dwarfs that use their incredible engineering skills to strip a planet of its resources and won’t let anyone get in their way
- GCPS – each corporation has its own private army who are often left to fend for themselves in the containment zones when the enemy dropships arrive
- Marauders – piratical greenskins that travel the galaxy waiting to pounce on a Deadzone and sell their wares to the highest bidder
- Mazon Labs – a corporation that has become obsessed with secret experiments that twist people into deformed monsters used as terrible ‘field tests’ in abandoned Deadzones
- Nameless – humanity’s greatest threat could be this mysterious race of semi-aquatic aliens that have been driven to conflict by religious fervour
- The Plague – an insidious virus that spreads throughout the galaxy and turns its victims into ravening beasts that only have one purpose… to further the spread of the disease
- Rebs – determined to fight against the seemingly tyrannical spread of the mega corporations, the Rebs are a mix of humans and aliens that fight from the shadows
- Veer-myn – underneath sprawling cities or hiding in the dark corners of vast space stations, the Veer-myn are giant rat-like creatures just waiting to strike in order to protect their nest

In the tight confines of the city sprawl, troopers are equipped for close quarters. Shotguns and Suppressor shields, backed up with TAC drones yield reliable yet brutal results.

PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A PRE-ORDER AND WILL START SHIPPING FROM OCTOBER 25TH
Contents:

- 2 PVC Veer-Myn Progenitors
Deadzone Veer-Myn Brood Matriarch Booster – €35,00
The Brood Guard are a new class of Veer-Myn warrior recently identified by the ETCU. They are never seen apart from a Brood Mother and seem to not only be better equipped than other members of the nest, but also represent yet another physiological offshoot of the Veer-Myn. The cause of this forced evolution is still unknown.

Contents:
- 1x PVC Veer-Myn Brood Mother
- 2x Resin Veer-Myn Brood Guard
- 2x Resin Veer-Myn Rat Swarms
Deadzone Asterian War Clade Starter – €35,00
The Asterians venerate the pursuit of universal balance above all else, their very society based around this concept. Their disdain of warfare and violence has led to the development of technology which allows their finest warriors to fight on the battlefield without physical risk, piloting sophisticated remote drones from orbit known as Cyphers which are as nimble and capable as a living being, with the added bonuses of far superior speed, strength and endurance.
PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A PRE-ORDER AND WILL START SHIPPING FROM OCTOBER 25TH

Deadzone Asterian Matsudan Booster – €35,00
One of the few races to regularly treat and form pacts with the Asterians are the Matsudan. This ancient race of large, lizard-like creatures is thought to be almost as old as the Asterians themselves. They have a culture steeped in tradition and honour, so the actions of the profit-hungry corporations of the GCPS regularly come into conflict with the Matsudan’s venerable sense of integrity. To say the Asterians exploit this animosity is perhaps harsh, but they certainly don’t discourage it.

Contents:
- 1x Resin Matsudan Toshiyori
- 1x Resin Matsudan Inashi
- 1x Resin Matsudan Sekiwake
- 2x Resin Matsudan Ozeki/Yokozuna

- Set of Acrylic DZ item markers
Battlezone Street Accessories – €15,00
In the hyper-capitalist urban sprawls of the GCPS, consumers are bombarded with the neon glamour and bright advertising of dozens of corporations in every street. These systems continue to function long after they’re abandoned inside of containment protocols.

Da hab ich direkt wieder Bock. Das Spiel kam in den letzten 1-2 Jahren viel zu kurz hier!
Das Gelände sieht ganz gut aus, könnte was für Kill Team sein.
Der Rest typischer Mantic Hässlon-Kram.
Ein ziemlicher Mix an Werkstoffen… Hardplastic / Resin / PVC… ist das letzte nicht das üble Flummizeug?
Bei PVC hängt das sehr davon ab wie es Verabeitet wird es gibt das auch in Granit hart. Aber in der Regel sind PVC Figuren etwas weicher als Hartplaste (PE,PP, PS) lassen sich aber sehr bescheiden bearbeiten.
Für mich ein absolutes Hassmaterial.
Nachdem ich den zweiten KS nicht mal einmal angegriffen habe, werde ich wohl passen. Es liegt einfach zuviel herum.
Uih Ich freue mich auch schon drauf. Das Spiel hat es zwischen den Lockdowns immer wieder auf den Tisch geschafft und hat mir jedes Mal wieder Spaß gemacht. Ich denke da werde Ich den neue Starterbox nehmen. Da sind auch zwei Fraktionen drin, die Ich noch nicht habe. 🙂
Im Live-Stream klang es ja auch so, als hätten sie primär die ganzen Erweiterungsbücher in die Grundregeln rein gefaltet.
Das sie jetzt schrittweise alle PVC Minis durch Resin Versionen ersetzen wollen finde Ich auch gut.
Ich mag zwar eigentlich das PVC, das sie seit Walking Dead verwenden ganz gerne aber man muss dann doch jedes Mal Leuten erklären, dass das nicht mehr das „Mantic Restic“ das es bei Dreadball, den KoW Kickstarter und Deadzone am Anfang gab.
Aus meiner Sicht ist das Spiel weiterhin ein sehr guter, schneller, non-charakter Skirmisher. Hoffentlich ist es dann auch in Deutschland gut verfügbar, wenn wir dann wissen, wie hart GW die DLC Schiene bei Killteam fährt. 🙂
Das sind jetzt dann ja schon zwei recht ähnliche Systeme vom Spielgefühl her.
Würdest du auch was von Deadzone auf deinen Kanal bringen?
Das wäre echt supercool.
Ähhm da verwechselst du mich mit Dizzyfingers aber Ich benutze den Nick schon seit Mitte der 90iger 🙂
Dizzyfingers schreibt eigentlich auch überall unter dem Dizzyfingers Nick.
Ah ok XD
Wenn sie den Zug als Gelände machen schau ich mir des einmal an.
Ansonsten….
Oh ist das be neue plague Mini?
Einfach nur richtig cool.
Der beste sci-fi skirmisher auf den Markt!
Werde mir aber erstmal nur die Bücher holen, hab die Schränke schon voll mit gelände und minis:D
Gefällt mir alles richtig gut, auch das die Metallmodelle in den Sets durch Resin ersetzt werden.
Regeländerungen klingen soweit gut und Aufteilung in Armeebuch und Regelbuch ist sinnvoll
Die Sets sind richtig knaller. Ich hab hier schon viel von Deadzone herumliegen, also wird es sich nur auf die Regelbücher hinauslaufen.
Was ich immer noch schade finde und absolut nicht verstehen kann, warum DICED das Spiel nie gecovert hat. Ich meine mich an einer unlogischen Erklärung zu erinnern „Das Spiel verwendet Felder, also ist es kein Tabletopspiel“.
Naja das muss aber schon lange her sein, falls Dennis das mal gesagt hat. Er hat ja in den letzten Jahren auch eine Road to Super Fantasy Brawl gemacht. Ich denke das liegt aber primär daran, dass ja auch jemand die Materialien für die Road To stellen muss. Hat er ja gerade bei der letzten Road To zu Herr der Ringe noch mal betont, dass das ohne die Bereitstellung der Minis durch den Sponsor (weiß gerade nicht genau wer es war), gar nicht möglich gewesen wäre.
Aber hindert uns ja nichts daran, Mantic mal auf Diced aufmerksam zu machen. Vielleicht sponsort Mantic es dann ja. 🙂
So viel braucht man ja für eine Road To Deadzone nicht. Eine neue Starterbox und zwei extra Fraktionsstarter. 🙂
Denis hat auch schon ne road to zu Dust 1947 gemacht also Felder sind wumpe.
Aber ne road to deadzone wäre echt perfekt.
Und das erste road to zu einen mantic System.
Dennoch war das damals sein Kommentar warum er nichts mit/über Deadzone macht, wegen der Felder bzw das nicht vorhanden sein eines Maßband deswegen wäre es ein Brettspiel und kein Tabletop und darum nichts für seine Videos
Vielleicht hat er seine Meinung dazu geändert, sind ja auch schon 5 Jahre seither vergangenen
Ich denke das Tabletop Basement wird bestimmt etwas zur 3. Version machen. Der Spielbericht von der 2. Version, war glaube ich für Mantic ein Erfolg auf dem deutschen Markt.
Das wird so großartig und wird sowas von gekauft! 😀
Deadzone hat es mehr als verdient denn es hat wirklich großartige Regeln und die eingearbeiteten FAQs und div. Bücher ins neue Regelbuch war ein absolutes muss, neben weiteren Feintuning Änderungen.
Für mich wird es definitiv das neue 2 Player Starter Set werden, das Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis ist da einfach top.
Das sie die ganzen Starter und Booster Boxen Neu auflegen bzw. zusammenstellen finde ich ebenfalls sehr gut.
Ich hoffe das durch DZ 3.0. auch mehr in Dtl. zu diesem wunderbaren System finden werden, verdient hätte es das definitiv! Eine „Road to Deadzone“ wäre wirklich mal erstrebenswert von DICED! Hat jemand direkten Kontakt zu Denis?
TBTV wird da hoffentlich auf jeden Fall etwas machen!? Ihr System Check Video zu Deadzone 2.0 war wirklich großartig neben Ihren Spielberichten 🙂
Leider ist es kein GW-System, also wird es hier schleppend laufen. Mantic hat leider kein riesen Budget für Werbung und Marketing. Der SciFi-Skirmish-Markt ist aktuell auch sehr umkämpft mit einer neuen Edition für Killteam, Infinity, Core Space und Stargrave (auch wenn es nur Regeln sind). Die Regeln wird es auch höchstwahrscheinlich nicht in Deutsch geben, was sowieso ein großes Hinderniss für viele deutsche Tabletopper ist. Auch einfach in einem Laden gehen und losspielen geht auch nicht.
Nichtdestotrotz bin ich Megahyped für die neue Edition. Ich bin selber noch am Hadern, ob ich mir den neuen Starter holen soll, oder doch nur die Regeln mit den Acryltokens. Vielleicht bestell ich es in meinem lieblings LGS und versuche dort mal mein Glück. Blackfire wird es höchwahrtscheinlich auch in deren Shop führen, da die nahezu jede Neuheit von Mantic anbieten.
Ich hab mir nochmal das Video angeschaut. Folgende Sachen sind mir beim „Listenbau“ aufgefallen:
Einheiten haben jetzt „HealPoints -HP“. D.h. die Siluette bestimmt nicht mehr, wieviel Schaden man aushalten kann. Fand ich in der 2. Edition bischen blöd, weil Anführer sehr leicht ins Gras beißen.
Einheiten-Profile ähneln sich wie in Infinity. Du hast das Einehitenprofil und darunter sind die Ausrüstungsoptionen und Punktekosten. Das macht das Ausrüsten der Modelle einfacher und übersichtlicher. Aber mir ist schon aufgefallen, dass normale Enforcer keinen Granatwerfer mehr haben dürfen. Dafür wird einem auch die „Freiheit“ genommen, seltsame Ausrüstungskofigurationen seinen Modellen zu geben.
So wie es aussieht, wird es im Grundspiel ein vollständiges Regelbuch sein mit 10 Armeelisten. Das muss ich hier nochmal betonen, weil selbst im neuen Necromunda-Set man kein vollständiges Regelbuch erhält. Ich hasse es, für jede Fraktion ein seperates Buch kaufen zu müssen oder das Regelbuch nochmal kaufen zu müssen, um die vollständingen Regeln zu erhalten. Aber selbst das Necromundaregelbuch hat veraltete Regeln, die mit Erweiterungsbüchern nichtig gemacht worden. Das steht uns zunächst mit Deadzone 3.0 nicht bevor. In Deadzone 2.0 musste man zwar auch ein Erweiterungsbuch kaufen, um auf den aktuellen Regelstand zu sein. Dafür hat das Buch nichtmal 30€ gekostet und man erhielt alle Armeelisten.
Ich bin auch schon sehr gespannt auf die 3. Edition.
Das 2-Spieler-Set werde ich wohl nicht kaufen da ich schon Veer-Myn und GCPS habe, ich werde jetzt aber regelmäßig Fraktionen anschaffen…
Mal gucken vielleicht Deadzone und Vanguard monatlich abwechselnd. 😀
