TGlogo

As of today we can now officially share with you more details about the launch of Terminator Genisys: The Miniatures Game. Warlord Games is the exclusive distributor of The War Against the Machine, a skirmish miniatures game designed and produced by Alessio Cavatore’s River Horse Games, based on the upcoming Terminator Genisys movie by Paramount and Skydance Productions.

Terminator Genisys: The War Against the Machines features 31 stunning plastic miniatures designed to be ready for action in minutes. No glue is required, thanks to their push-fit design, and they come in two clear different plastic colour (metallic grey for the Terminators and army green for the Resistance) to make sure you recognise your forces easily amidst the fog of war.

As a bonus, The War Against the Machines includes a superbly sculpted metal Kyle Reese character to join the Resistance fighters, providing them with special command abilities and heroic traits, Kyle Reese is a perfect to lead the brave Resistance soldiers against the endoskeletons.

Terminator Genisys: The War Against the Machines includes a 128 pages rulebook that allows you to explore every game possibility; starting from the contents of the box but allowing you to expand with the upcoming range of heroes, commanders, troop types and vehicles expected during the year ahead. We will keep you well informed about all these new exciting releases.

While you can play on your regular gaming table, we have included a 2’x3′ double-sided gaming mat, cardboard measuring templates and a set of cardboard terrain to make it a game truly ready out of the box, so you’ll be up and running in no time at all.

Finally, the unique dice game system invites you to play without the need of modifiers or tables and the chaotic “Fate activation system” ensure you’re always involved in the action.

You will be able to get Terminator Genisys: The War Against the Machines and all the upcoming new releases directly from Warlord Games’ online store or through your local store. Pre-orders for the game start in May.

River Horse and Warlord Games want to make sure that this game was everywhere so more people would discover it and start playing, even those who have never wargamed before! The twist and push-fit components eliminate the need for hobby tools making it the perfect introductory product for those that have not yet discovered the wonders of wargaming. With this in mind we have created Terminator Genisys: The Battle for the Future. The main difference is that this simplified product only includes plastic miniatures and a 16 pages ruleset to play with the components in the box. We didn’t want to scare newcomers with a 100-odd page rules or metal miniatures. We leave that for us wargamers!

You can expect to see Battle for the Future truly everywhere, not only in specialised hobby and games stores, allowing us to reach those that have yet not discovered River Horse and our great games through a comprehensive and approachable starter set.
