  • AUTHOR INTERVIEW: CHRISTOPHER VERSPEAK & FIRST STRIKE-ALPHA STRIKE EDITION

    We chat with Christopher Verspeak about the polished, extended, rerelease of the first Warpath novel: First Strike, which we loved and did a book club on in Season 1. We also talk a bit about what we can look forward to in the future from the Warpath setting, tips for writing in Warpath, and just having fun talking to an awesome author and fellow fan of Mantic Games. Thank you, Christopher!

    Look out for First Strike-Alpha Strike Edition coming soon and more from Christopher Verspeak in the future!

    Forgive the sound quality, did my best with editing, but we had some glitches in the call. Enjoy!

  • THE REBS - GUEST STARRING BRYAN NOVAK!

    You know him from Deadzone the Podcast and #Woo! Go Rebs! on Facebook. We're joined by Bryan Novak to talk about one of the first and most interesting factions in Warpath. The GCPS is far from perfect, and those who seek to be the change in the Spheres fight each other as much as their oppressors. From a diverse cast of humans, aliens, and who knows what else, emerges a rag tag team of specialists and niche warriors with heart and -sometimes- morals. Whether you are a pirate smuggler, a gang boss, a freedom fighter, an environmental activist, or an off-script investigative reporter, you and the Council of Seven don't get along...and that's all it takes.

  • THE NAMELESS - YOU'RE GONNA NEED A BIGGER FLEET

  • Shoot the Shek-Q&A to Fall Asleep To

    A very unscripted, rambling thank you to our audience. Your sleep deprived lore geeks get propped up by mountain dew(not sponsored) and try to form semi-coherent responses to your questions. Future Zacama13 chimes in a couple times to correct memory lapses. Please do not operate heavy machinery while listening to this episode. THANK YOU, LISTENERS!

  • ASTERIANS PT.2: マシダん (MATSUDAN)

    Be it dreadball, the lab, or the field of battle, the Matsudan exemplify honor and aspiration. We talk about these fierce allies of the Asterians and what makes them so formidable...and down right AWESOME!


    For the curious, the japanese at the beginning was basically

    Zacama13: "Ashwalker, long time no see. I don't speak japanese"

    Ashwalker: "Ah, a little japanese huh?"

About The Manticlore Podcast

From the publisher's feed

Zacama13 and fellow wargame lore geek Ashwalker dive into Mantic Games' universe behind the WARPATH games Firefight, Deadzone, and DreadBall. Find out why these guys are sufficiently hyped for a game one of them accidentally stumbled across, that he talked his buddy into recording and posting their voices online. Be ready for bad puns, obscure references, audio that sounds like they might as well be recording in a study room at a local library...and all the privately militarized space capitalism gone wild you could ask for!
