Unboxing: Mutant Chronicles Warzone – The Greatest Alternatives to Warhammer 40k that Ever Existed



Hello my dear friends!

In this video I’ll show you , in my opinion, one of the greatest alternatives to Warhammer 40k back in the 90’s, Mutant Chronicles: Warzone! I’m going to unbox the second edition starter box set that came out in 1998, the same year when the Third edition of Warhammer 40k was around.

Enjoy!

  1. The 6th ish edition is the new warzone eternal kickstarter coming out in May. After that 2nd edition there was a 3rd edition low quality book only with cut and paste pictures and only a couple miniatures added and died quickly, more like a fan version. The 4th edition was from prodos, warzone resurrection. They cleaned it up and tweaked rules for a 2nd edition so that would have been the 5th version.

    Mutant Chronicles, both Warzone and the RPG, is a fantastic setting and game. It really deserves a better place of prominence than it currently holds. As it stands with it's production history, it's something of a cursed property. The license goes out, it gets picked up by a seemingly naive up and coming game company who then struggle with it for a few years before the holding company(still the same guy as was running Target back in the 90s) pulls the license, pockets the easy cash and starts the process over again. Shameful. For it to live someone needs to pry it away wholly from Cabinet Entertainment(or whatever they're calling themselves THIS week), with a strong vision for it's development as a setting and it's direction as a game line.

  3. Hi Cory, thanks for this video and to bring back memories of this gorgeous box. As you said, we are still playing Warzone game, although newer edition (we are going to host a tournament in Italy in two weeks), and in general the Mutant Chronicles Italian Community is still strong. If you are curious on how the new editions look like and what is the gameplay, let me know. Happy painting! Ciao!

  5. Meraviglioso. Le illustrazioni del magnifico Paul Bonner, sparse un po' su tutti i giochi ambientati nell'universo mutant chronicles, erano un bel plus per me. Anzi, nel mio caso, il vero motivo per cui mi aveva tanto catturato questo prodotto. Anche l'illustrazione della scatola che mostri, non mi vorrei sbagliare, sembra un po' il suo stile e potrebbe essere lui. La mitica Hobby & Work pubblicò in edicola un romanzo che non era nemmeno così malaccio, intitolato "Luna City", in versione illustrata e con vari inserti dedicati al lore. Purtroppo non ebbi la fortuna di conoscere Warzone ai tempi in cui uscì e non ho capito bene se la nuova edizione di kickstarter Warzone Eternal parta o meno, visto che vedo che ha meno di 1k follower…esteticamente poi non sono un fan delle meccaniche ad attivazioni alternate e mi piace lanciare tanti dadi quindi forse non fa comunuqe per me. Ma il lore è veramente una figata galattica…ed è vero che le miniature sono stupende: che fortuna aver trovato questa scatola!!

  6. Warzone.
    One Nepharite of Alakhai totally decimated every enemy Bauhaus almost single handedly as he swept across the battlefield, turning brother against brother and raising even fallen enemies to fight for the Dark Legion. Totally OP.
