Q & A with Mark Rapson
Kategori: Allmänt
Mark Rapson of Prodos Games was kind enough to answer a couple of questions for us!
Q: Could you give us a brief overview on what Warzone is?
A: Warzone Resurrection is a tabletop miniatures (28mm scale) skirmish game, set in the Mutant Chronicles dark SciFi Future. The richly visualised Mutant Chronicles dark future has been exciting gamers and science fiction fans all over the world for 20 years. The Solar System is besieged by abominations from the dark beyond, infernal hybrids of undead alien flesh brought into existence by the Dark Symmetry. Mankind is divided into five rival Megacorporations concerned only with profit and territory as they tear the inner worlds apart in bitter, internecine war. United in faith under the Brotherhood, Mankind may yet prevail – divided, they shall surely fall as the Dark Legion sweeps all before it.
Q: What do you like the most with the IP and setting of Mutant Chronicles, what got you hooked?
A:So I am a newish recruit to the MC and WZ world, first hearing and reading about it 3 or 4 years ago. Back then, before WZR was anything more than a twinkle in our eyes, I fell in love with the fluff, the art and the general concept. I picked up a few miniatures, but vacuumed up any literature I could find. Now I have nearly all literature published in the MC world and all the Warzone stuff. I love it.
Q: Whats your favourite model/unit in WZR overall. Fluffwise, looks, rules etc?
A: This is a very hard question. So looks wise I love the Ronin and Meka.I personally thing the product of the concept artists and renderers for the Meka is sublime. The pinnacle of design and a perfect example of Mishima and the reimagining of Mishima for WZR.
Rules wise I really like the Blink and Power Blink of the Armoured Chasseurs, a great concept. I also think the Build your own hero and vehicle rules a great, simple but brilliant and in the case of the vehicle rules, so much more realistic that the vehicle rules for other game systems. And fluffwise, I like the new characters, Hamilkar, Henery Thomas, the Necrobeast and Angelika. I am also very pleased with the new Brotherhood squad.
Q: What single thing about WZR do you think will attract most new players? (Rules, the models, IP etc.).
A: I think the models first of all, they are the window to the WZ world, but the fluff and imagery will keep them in. The rules, missions and narrative will keep people coming back for more The Fact you can make your own Hero is very appealing to me.
Q: Do you plan on releasing multipart boxes for each faction to create your own hero?
A: Many things are in the pipeline, this included. When they will arrive and in what form is yet to be seen, but yes. And let’s not forget that its possible to ki-bash WZR models so Im really looking forward to seeing everyones conversions.
Q: When do you think we will get our hands on Imperial and the next DL wave?
A: Well we have 10 new units in the current book, at least 1 for each faction first, but I think 2014 is a very good estimation.
Q: Is there anything you learnt from doing the Kickstarter that you would change if you could go back?
A: Not really, it was a rollercoaster, we had our ups and downs, and more than our fair share of trolls, but it exceeded all expectation.
Q: Do you plan on diversifying in the future into other sectors of the hobby market say Terrain or Paints either solely or with a partner?
A: Prodos is a very ambitious company and as such I am certain what we have now (and set for the next year) is just the tip of the iceberg.
Thank you for taking your time Mark Rapson!
Command squad of the Glade Guards
Skirmish Glade GuardsThen after the sucess with the elfs I try my luck with the Dryads.. Im still just TWO in!! Jesus!!! These guys/girls(tree-things) have so small limbs!! And just one foot on the base, they fall over all the time while I try gluing them on the base.. 
They Dryads from HELL! ;)Note to self, Dryads are not worth a lunch! 
Do I have to say I have the best wife ever? ;)
Väldigt nöjd med dom hittills. Mina limmar skills är legendariska! 
Urkgor. Troligen blir han en Blitzer, Mighty blow, claws mm. 
Eek the One-Eyed. Min Dedikerade playmaker, blandning av Blitzer och Passer. Pass, Strip ball osv. 
Gorehorn. Ännu en Blitzer, även här Mighty blow, claws mm. 
Prach Pukebreath. Min "Catcher". Extra arms, extra head, Dodge osv. Ser fram emot att måla dom. Ännu mer att spela med dom!
Så jävla taggad på de här nu. Är det september snart? 
Han kommer med två vapen CC och Ranged. Mycket stilig! 
Kommer bli ett bra schema som sammanför hela armen och ändå får squadsen att skilja sig från varandra. Allt för mig!
Capitols nya vanliga infanteri. Påminner starkt om Mobile Infantry från Starshiptroopers. Men de är ju coolt!
Här är deadpool. . Eller ja menar Airbourne Cavalry ser mycket tuffare ut. Har ju hellre sådana i min arme :) Priset för uppgraderingen står i vänster hörn :)
Här är det man lägger till/byter ut. Svårt va!? ;)Finns ju även en ny karaktär. Kapten för 44rh Airbourne, Captain Henry Thomas.
Yes please! Funderar starkt på att förbeställa Kapten och två add-ons. Problemet är att de inte kommer fören augusti så de kommer bli ännu mer väntan innan man kan bygga ihop. Men! Pluset är ju enligt mig snyggare modeller :)
