The Walking Dead: All Out War

The Walking Dead: All Out War is a miniatures skirmish game by Mantic Games where 1-4 players control a group of survivors from The Walking Dead comic universe, battling each other and the ever-present threat of Walkers for resources and survival. Players build their teams of unique characters, each with different equipment and abilities, to complete objectives in various scenarios, which can range from simple resource grabs to detailed narrative campaigns lifted directly from the comic’s storylines. The core gameplay involves managing resources, making tactical decisions on a customizable board, and dealing with a third-party threat in the form of the Walkers, who are directed by a card-driven Event system.
