The Asterians Drop Into The World Of Warpath
September 29, 2015 by brennon
Mantic Games have added another army to their Warpath adventure on Kickstarter. See what you think of the alien forces of the Asterians that will be dropping in to face off against the Corporation, Forge Fathers, Veer-Myn and Plague...
The army is coming together as a Battlegroup option if they hit their stretch goals (which I'm sure they will). See what you think of some of the renders below showing off their infantry...
I love their robotic soldiers, a very 'Space Elf' way of doing things to put them under one archetype. Why fight themselves when they can get these warriors to help out and take the damage for them? I like the idea that the real Asterians hang back and watch from afar, controlling the flow of the battlefield.
What do you think?

interesting looking figures.
I just…don’t like them. But then I’ve never liked any version of “space elves” in any game. Glad the range is expanding and all but I have to admit my heart is still set on the Corporation, unless they get some serious love at the end of the campaign I think I’ll be skipping this KS and game.
If things go well, we’ll see the Corporation by the end of the KS, Mantic mentioned wanting to do them as well!
I don’t “love” these models but i like them enough, anyways, there just drones!
Those do look interesting.
these are looking pretty cool
Out of all the Warpath factions the Asterians are the ones I’d be most likely to collect. Sadly though, without more details on Firefight they don’t tempt me anywhere near enough to pledge.
If one wanted to make a series 9 seeder robot team from kknd2 these would do a fine job i recon 🙂 now that i think about it a kknd2 tabletopper could be alot of fun
