Judge Dredd

[Primarch]

A while ago there was a Judge Dredd Kickstarter to produce minis for a tabletop game. The kickstarter was run by a company called Mongoose Publishing who had the rights to make a game for the setting.

In my inbox today I got the following from Warlord Games.

Warlord and Mongoose announce Judge Dredd partnership!
We are delighted to announce an agreement between these two progressive games companies that will see Warlord Games exclusively manufacture and distribute Mongoose Publishing’s Judge Dredd miniatures game.

Managing Director of Mongoose Publishing, Matthew Sprange, “This is a great step for the Judge Dredd miniatures game as we believe Warlord is the premier miniatures company and we have always been huge fans of their work. We have known the chaps working there for many years and look forward to working closely within them for many more.”

Paul Sawyer of Warlord Games: “We are very excited to be working with our old friend Matt on taking the Judge Dredd game to a wider audience . Many of us at Warlord are rabid Dredd and 2000AD fans and are looking forward to helping build on the solid platform built by the Mongoose team”.

Plans are already well underway for the range to be reorganised and repackaged as well as having a welter of new releases added. There are already plans for a hardback rulebook amongst other new additions.

I'm not sure if there are many Dredd fans on this site (well, except for Pikey), but if there are, this is good news as far as I am concerned. Mongoose had a history of poor quality products (there D&D books were awful) and never really supporting their product lines.
