Adepticon 2025: Daemons ravage Armageddon in Crusade: Armageddon while the Grey Knights descend

Posted on by

Games Workshop and Warhammer 40K are returning to Armageddon with a new supplement, Crusade: Armageddon. The Daemon Primarch Angron is back for another round, and even the intervention of the Grey Knights may not be enough to stop him.

The new narrative campaign supplement features a new invasion over 43 pages of story with Space Marine chapters gathering to stop the incursion.

The campaign features branching paths for three separate alliances featuring thematic boons based on who won or lost the previous campaign phase.

There’s new Hellscape rules to simulate battlefields full of Warp energy. New Narrative Play rules power up Epic Hero units designating them Mighty Champions with new abilities.

Adepticon 2025: Atomic Mass Games lays out its Roadmap for Marvel: Crisis Protocol

Posted on by

At Adepticon on Friday night, Atomic Mass Games revealed its plans over the next year or so for Marvel: Crisis Protocol. The reveal included new characters and packs as well as when we might expect things to come to shelves, and the tabletop.

Atomic Mass Games kicked things off with a new Store Event Kit that can be a run as a single day event or multi-week league. The kit includes foil cards and will see a steady stream of kits to allow stores to keep running events. Each OP season will feature 3 kits.

Also revealed were new Affiliation Packs. This new Affiliation Packs combine old releases into an easy way to get “like” characters and help start playing or expand your choices.

New affiliation packs include “Criminal Syndicate,” “Warriors of Asgard,” “Defenders,” “X-Force,” “Xavier’s Students,” and “Web-Swinging Heroes.”

Speaking of getting started… Marvel: Crisis Protocol is getting two Starter Packs allowing players to jump into the game. Each Starter Pack contains a 10-character roster, dice, measuring tools, and game components. Kicking things off are “X-Men,” and “Spider-Foes.”

And of course there were character reveals as well. There’s a little something for everyone it seems. Coming soon are Phoenix and Phoenix Unleashed, a pack featuring Avalanche, Exodus, and Lady Mastermind, another with Prowler, Spider-Man 2099, and Ultimate Spider-Man, and more Spider-Verse with Silk, Spider-Noir, and Spider-Ham, or go street level with Echo, Ronin, and Tigra, and finally Blue Marvel and Spectrum.

Also teased were some releases for 2026 including Iron Lad, Iron Monger, Kang the Conqueror, and Rescue. Another featuring Adam Warlock, Moondragon, and Quasar. You can head to Asgard with Valkyrie, Elendil, and the Warriors Three. There’s more X-Men with Dani Moonstar, Havok (for some reason spelled Havoc), Jubilee, and Multiple Man. And some solid foes with Bastion, Nimrod, and Omega Sentinel.

Finally, when is all of this coming out? Atomic Mass Games not only showed off a release schedule but a “restock” schedule when characters would be available again. The game has been plagued with product selling out and not being restocked so this should go a long way to answer those questions.

Mantic reveals its Halo: Flashpoint 2025 Show Specials

Posted on by

Convention specials can be pretty fun, and at times frustrating to get, and Mantic Games has revealed their 2025 Specials for Halo: Flashpoint. The first chance to see them will be at AdeptiCon (US) and SALUTE (UK).

Fireteam Phoenix features the original 4 Spartans, reposed, and produced in MasterCraft Resin. The figures won’t feature new cards as they’re already available. These are for the painters and are perfect to customize your Spartan team.

But Mantic is being awesome about this and the Fireteam Phoenix 2025 Show Special will be available for those who can’t make it to conventions too!

They will go up for pre-order on the Mantic webstore from the time of AdeptiCon, and come down after SALUTE at the end of April. They will then make them and ship them in May. Nobody misses out on their chance to order this fantastic show special which is pretty awesome for completists! Not only that, but FLGS partners will be able to get a copy of these very limited-edition 1-print special miniatures too!
