Getting Started
Welcome to Operation Heracles, the starter
set for Warpath The Futuristic Battle Game.
In this set you will find all the miniatures,
counters and rules needed to get started with
the game. Over a series of pivotal missions,
you will learn how to play as you command
your army either the unyielding Forge
Fathers or the mighty Enforcer Corps and
decide the fate of the volcanic planet Triton.
Whats in the box?
Starter Rulebook This contains all the rules
you'll need to play the game using your new
miniatures. One end of the book contains
rules to play the mass battle game Warpath,
and the other end contains rules to play the
skirmish-level game Firefight.
Read This First This is the booklet you're
reading right now! It has information about
the conflict on Triton and the two opposing
forces at war there. It also has a guide to your
new models, and the battle statistics of each
army.
Plastic Tokens These coloured tokens help
to keep track of in-game effects. Keep these
near the table, youll need them often!
Command Dice This is a special set of
8-sided dice, used to give Orders to your
troops using the Command & Control
advanced rules.
Two Armies The box contains lots of finely
detailed miniatures that make an Enforcer
army and a Forge Father army for you to
battle with. You will need to build them before
you start playing follow the pictures of the
armies in this book, and the assembly guide
opposite, to put them together.

 assembling your new models

Using hobby clippers, carefully remove

the model parts from the frame.
Tidy up any rough areas and mould lines
with a hobby file so that the pieces fit
snugly together.
Glue the parts together, one at a time,
using the correct type of glue (see below)
Attach the finished model to the
appropriate round base.
You can download detailed assembly
instructions for each kit from www.
manticgames.com

Important: Glue
The models in this set are made from different
materials that require the use of different
types of glue to assemble.
The Enforcer Jetbikes and all models supplied
on a plastic frame can be assembled using
Plastic Glue (sometimes called poly cement).
Any other models in your set (including any
metal upgrade parts) must be assembled with
Super Glue.

Painting your new models

Once the glue is dry, you can paint your

models using water-based acrylic paints and
a small brush. You dont have to paint them in
order to play, but it looks really cool if you do!
The models in this book have been painted to
match the Krestrsson Forge Father Clan and
the Perseus North Enforcer Battalion. You can
follow these colour schemes, or invent your
own if you wish.
Mantic recommends the Army Painter
range of Colour Primer sprays, Warpaints,
and Quickshade Washes for painting your
Warpath models. You can find out more at
www.thearmypainter.com

The Future Battlefield
To play a game of Warpath, you will need a battlefield to
play on. This could be any flat surface, from the kitchen table
to a fully modelled gaming board, but should ideally be no
more than 48 deep and 48 wide. If youre using a bigger
table then mark out the boundary so you know where
the edge of the battlefield is. Your
battlefield will also need terrain
covering it to provide cover for
your advancing troops.

But I cant wait!

If you dont have any gaming terrain, there is nothing wrong with using piles of
books, cups, boxes and straws to decorate your battlefield dont let anything stop
you from getting stuck in!

The Landscape of War
Terrain is important to any tabletop game. It helps set the scene and provides your troops with
something to fight over, manoeuvre between and take cover behind.
To help you set up your battlefield, here's a quick overview of the types of terrain you'll need to
represent the war-torn volcanic mining colony of Triton.

Impassable Ground
This should be no more than 4" long x 4" wide.
This could be a deep crevasse in the ground
or a volcanic vent filled with hissing steam or
deadly lava.

Large Defensible
terrain
This should be no more than 6 long x
6 wide, and between 2"- 6" tall. This
could be an abandoned warehouse,
ruined mine building, or a dense
rocky outcrop.

Obstacles
This should be no more than 6 long and 1
wide, and up to 1" tall. This could be a row of
sandbags or cargo crates & barrels, a length
of industrial pipeline, or a low perimeter wall.
Small Impassable terrain
This should be no more than 3 long x 3
wide, and up to 2" tall. This could be a heap
of industrial scrap, unstable rubble, or some
kind of chemical storage silo.

5
 Playing a wargame
Rolling Dice
Both games use 6-sided dice (D6 for
short) to determine the outcome of
various situations during the game. You
will be asked to roll these in a variety of
ways:
4+ means rolling a 4 or higher (4, 5
or 6) is a success.
2D6 means rolling 2 dice and
adding the numbers together to get
the result.
D6+1 means adding 1 to the dice
roll to get the result.
These are just examples. You might be
asked to roll a 3+, or 3D6+2, and so on.
Roll a D3!?
This ones a bit tricky because youre still
rolling a six-sided die. In this case we
read the numbers differently:
1 or 2 = 1
3 or 4 = 2
5 or 6 = 3
Otherwise, the same rules apply.
Modifiers
You will encounter rules that modify
your dice rolls:
-1 means the number rolled on the
dice is reduced by 1
+1 means the number rolled on the
dice is increased by 1
For example, if you need a 4+ to hit and
rolled a 3, then a +1 modifier increases it
to 4, turning a miss into a hit!
Re-Rolls
Sometimes you might be asked to re-roll
the dice if you wish. Just pick them up
and roll again. Dice cannot be re-rolled
more than once though, and the newest
result counts, even if it's worse.
6
Warpath and Firefight are two distinct games,
but they share many common rules and
mechanics. The key difference between these
two versions is how they treat your armies: as
individual models, or as Teams.
Models, Teams and Units
In Firefight, every model gets to move and
fight individually, and the game statistics
represent the abilities and weapons of a
single soldier of that type. Multiple models
can operate together as Units. If a Unit takes
damage, players remove individual models as
casualties which gradually reduces the Unit's
effectiveness.
In Warpath, models are grouped into Teams
that move and fight together, and the game
statistics represent a whole Team working in
concert. Multiple Teams can operate together
as Units. If a Unit takes damage, players
remove Teams to represent the mounting
casualties suffered in combat.
Measuring Distances
All measurements in Warpath and
Firefight are given in inches. Use a tape
measure or ruler to determine these
distances.
You can measure any distance at any
time.
There are several things you will need to
measure during a battle:
How far something moves (using its
Speed value).
Whether a target is close enough
to fire at with your units shooting
weapons (its Range value).
Or whether you can charge an
enemy in melee combat (also using
the Speed value).
If its really hard to tell whether something
is in range or not, roll a die: On a 4, 5 or 6
it is in, on a 3 or less it is not.
 Preparing For Battle
To prepare for a battle, follow these 5 steps:
1. Choose A Mission
2. Pick an Army
3. Set up the Terrain
4. Deploy your Units
5. Begin the Battle!

1: Choose a Mission
The Starter Rulebook contains two campaigns,
each with a series of missions to test your skills
as a commander. You can play through these
in order, or pick your favourite.

2: Pick an Army
You and your opponent should decide who
will play as the Enforcers and who will play as
the Forge Fathers. If you can't agree, flip a coin
to decide. You can always swap armies and
replay the mission from the other perspective
afterwards.

3: Set Up The Terrain

Futuristic battles rarely occur on open plains.
Your battlefield should have about:
3-4 Large Defensible Terrain Pieces
3-4 Small Impassable Terrain Pieces
1-3 Impassable Ground Areas
4-8 Obstacles
Divide the terrain equally between both
players, and take turns placing it on the table,
one piece at a time. Try to make sure it is
evenly distributed, as this will prevent one
army from having an unfair advantage.
Some missions have specific requirements for
terrain. Make sure these are fulfilled before
moving on to the next step.
4: Deploy your Units
Now the battlefield is set up, it's time to deploy
your forces. The mission briefing will specify
how many infantry units and vehicles each
army may field for that battle.
Both players should roll a die. Whoever rolls
the highest result gets to deploy first.
Some missions will specify which deployment
zone each army uses (usually referring to an
Attacker and a Defender). If not specified,
the player who won the die roll gets to choose
which deployment zone is theirs.
Starting with the player who rolled highest,
players take turns placing one unit from their
chosen army onto the table, fully within their
deployment zone. Continue until both players
have deployed all their available units. If one
player runs out of units to deploy, the other
player may then place all their remaining
units at once.
5: Begin the battle!
The mission briefing will specify which player
gets to take the first Activation of the game.

 The Galaxy Today
After centuries of toil, tribulation and hardship, the human race has finally accomplished greatness.
The Galactic Co-Prosperity Sphere, the greatest interstellar nation ever conceived, stands proudly as
testament to the indomitable spirit of mankind. Founded on commercial co-operation in the name of
political providence, the many corporations of the GCPS boldly reach to the stars to spread their vision
of unity throughout the cosmos.
Across thousands of inhabited systems, on hundreds of thousands of planets and moons, people of
all cultures and species are invited to incorporate and partake in the opulent luxury the GCPS can
offer to those with the means, nothing is impossible. Lavish food seasoned with exotic spice from
half the galaxy away; enough entertainment media to last ten lifetimes; surgical augmentation and
genetic therapy to reverse the effects of ageing and disability all is attainable in humanitys land of
opportunity.
Thats what the propaganda tells everyone, at least. Beyond the affluent Core Worlds, the GCPS takes
on a very different reality.
Here is the harsh frontier, where the vast mega-corporations relentlessly pursue revenue that sustains
the celebrity lifestyles of their shareholders. Out here, whole planets are bought and sold to turn a profit.
Mountains are levelled for ore, oceans vaporised for water, vegetation stripped to feed a population of
trillions elsewhere. And when a world happens to support a population of its own one that cannot be
beguiled to incorporate willingly it is subjugated by the corporations private militaries and exploited
like any other commodity.
This is the true nature of these relentless engines of commerce. From their seat of ultimate power,
the elusive Council of Seven guides this ruthless corporate empire ever onward, shepherding brittle
mankind along the knife edge of existence in a dangerous galaxy. Expansion is the key to prosperity.
Prosperity is the key to survival.

Welcome to the GCPS, citizen.

A World in Turmoil
Located in the fourth sphere of corporate landscape, Triton promised another lucrative
expansion, along the Sagittarius galactic arm, venture to the corporations of the GCPS, and

value.
Beneath the fractured surface lie extensive
seams of precious metals. The volcanic A business conglomerate with expertise in

Terraformers adjusted the atmosphere for
human respiration; mining encampments
grew into townships as the workforce
swelled. The stripping of Triton's assets for
export might have continued unabated for
generations were it not for the discovery of a
single, fist-sized chunk of grey ore.

Heirs to the Galaxy
The Star Realm is one of few civilisations
that can claim a heritage stretching back to
the dawn of the galaxy, or at least far older
than any other spacefaring cultures. It is one
of fewer still that has resisted the aggressive
expansion of the GCPS, repelling attempts
at incorporation and conquest time and
again over recent centuries, thanks to shrewd
diplomacy and supreme weapons technology.
Its inhabitants, the methodical Forge Fathers,
are similarly persistent in their civilian affairs.
With meticulous patience they have developed
astonishing technological innovations and are
capable of harvesting entire planets to the
last grain of matter, ensuring no molecule is
wasted. At the core of their culture is the drive
to accumulate wealth not unlike the GCPS
but the Forge Fathers are considerably more
thorough with their acquisition, content to
settle or mine a planet to its fullest potential
before proceeding to the next.
This diligent approach to their galactic
conquest means the Star Realm expands
A Call For Aid
The Council of Seven, supreme ruling body of
the GCPS, receives countless requests for aid
and cannot, or will not, answer them all. The
pleas of corporations like Intergalactic Futures
are often simply lost, tied up in labyrinthine
bureaucracy and tertiary government
chambers designed to keep such problems
away from the Councils ears as much as to
resolve them.
But within days of appealing to Core
Command for military intervention, IF was
informed that an Enforcement Protocol

hundred volcanoes encircling the northern
hemisphere. Since on-site analysis proved
inconclusive due to the material's interference
with high-frequency scanners, the ore was
simply warehoused and the data transmitted
back to IFs headquarters for later study.
How the Forge Lords of the Star Realm
obtained that data is the subject of much
speculation.
very slowly, staking claims on distant worlds
that their fleets may not begin colonising for
centuries and lending a certain predictability
to their movements. Their sudden arrival on
Triton, well beyond the Star Realm's borders,
was something nobody could have predicted.
As IF freighters delivered further mining
equipment and personnel to Tritons surface,
the colossal Ward ship Bruderheim appeared
without warning, accompanied by an armada
of smaller vessels and supply ships. The dwarf
fleet battered past any vessel caught in their
flight path, sparking panicked distress calls
from the marooned human colonists as troop
landers made their descent into the storm-
wracked atmosphere.
Group code-named Heracles was already
en route to the warzone. Its mission would
be "to defend corporate interests on Triton
by eradicating all threats to the correct
exploitation of legally acquired assets in the
system". As the first Enforcer ships arrived
in orbit, IF's executives were left to wonder
what price they might pay for the Councils
unusually swift aid
Sons of the Star Realm
Between their venerable lifespans and a culture that extols
the virtues of patience and finesse, it is no surprise that
the Forge Fathers are regarded as the finest craftsmen,
weaponsmiths and architects in the galaxy. They have
devised inventions and accomplished feats of engineering
enviable by all, from the humble Hailstorm Rifle to the
immense planetoid Ward ships that allow entire clans to
embark on voyages in search of new worlds to claim.
Their devotion to family, to duty and to the quality of their
workmanship is matched only by their pride as a people,
blending history and myth into epic sagas stretching
back beyond the dawn of memory. The many legends
of the Forge Fathers are fondly retold over hearth fires
throughout the Star Realm; of them, none is held so dearly
as that of Farangir and the Fires of Creation.
The Primordial Metal
According to the legend, before the birth of the universe, Farangir was the greatest and richest
of all dragons. In his possession was an ingot of elemental ore, known as the primordial metal,
which he guarded with untold jealousy. But Farangir was fooled into breathing fire onto his
ingot, melting it and creating all the known elements in doing so. In a rage he scattered the new
material out into the cosmos, forming the galaxy we see today.
While undoubtedly a fanciful explanation for the Big Bang, the existence of primordial metal
(known to GCPS scientists as trutonium) is indisputable. It is the most coveted form of wealth
in Forge Father society, with most Forge Lords possessing a hoard in their most secure vaults,
and more ostentatious Lords even gilding their armour with trutonium adornments. The heat
tolerance and gravitic properties of the material also make it highly sought-after by artificers
constructing heirloom-quality forge hammers.
How the Star Realm obtained the survey data from Triton's mining colony is a mystery known
only to a select few. But to uncover not only a deposit of primordial metal, but a seam over three
kilometres long, was to stumble on a treasure trove so enormous no Forge Lord could possibly
resist staking a claim upon it.
The Bruderheim
Like all Ward ships, the Bruderheim is gigantic and supports a sizeable population. Yet Triton
is distant from the Star Realm, and despite the Krestrsson clan being renowned for its fighting
prowess, they would be both outnumbered and outpaced by the Council's Enforcers. The Forge
Fathers knew they could not win with numbers or speed, but where their advantage lay was
in tenacity and sheer firepower. It was Forge Lord Ingulf Krestrssons fervent hope that by
prolonging the war on Triton he would be able to muster reinforcements and attract more clans
to ally at his side, eventually overpowering any resistance. Alternatively, if the Bruderheimers
could prevent the humans from turning a profit on their investments, the short-sighted
corporations would be forced to cede the planet to cut their losses.
Forge Father tactics a refusal to be drawn into rash moves and a patience borne of centuries of
battle experience confound Enforcer efforts to dislodge them from Triton. Holding any world
against the might of the GCPS was never going to be easy, but if theres one thing a dwarf loves
as much as wealth, its a challenge.

Lord Ingulf Krestrsson, commander of the

Dragon that Consumes Worlds, possesses
a grudge toward humanity as legendary as
the martial strength of his clan. He leads the
Forge Fathers to war on Triton under the
proud banner of his family and accompanied
by his loyal war-mastiff Padd. The question of
which is more surly and bellicose the hound
or its master is much debated around the
forges of the Bruderheim.
Humanity's Finest
The GCPS has faced many threats throughout its thousand-
year history, including an armed rebellion of such
magnitude that it threatened humanity with extinction. It
was this crisis that saw the inception of Project Ichiban.
A daring proposition by the Council of Seven, Ichiban
saw an unprecedented level of funding poured into the
creation of a cadre of posthuman super soldiers, troopers
who could equal or better the toughest of mankind's
enemies and conduct missions with amoral discipline. The
project was shrouded in secrecy; nobody will ever know
how many failures it took, or how many ethical codes were
compromised, to achieve results. But achieve them they did
- the Ichiban troopers performed beyond all expectations
and were instrumental in stemming the tide of rebellion.
When the crisis abated and with other corporations' military strength exhausted, the Council
adopted dominion over all human space, their will enforced by a private army of the most
efficient killers ever conceived. The Project Ichiban mantle was dropped in favour of one more
fitting the troopers' new mandate: the Enforcer Corps.
The Best that Money Can Buy
An Enforcer operator is the product of much more than simple gene therapy and cybernetics.
They are a culmination of the absolute finest bio-augmentation that humanity can provide,
subject to the most rigorous training and mental conditioning ever devised, and equipped with
an arsenal of weapons, vehicles and support equipment that showcase the pinnacle of human
military research.
Of notable exception is the ubiquitous powered suits that the Enforcers are most recognised
for. This advanced armour is not manufactured in the GCPS, nor even designed by humans. Its
existence is owed entirely to the craftsmanship of the Forge Fathers.
Deemed controversial by their peers, there are several dwarf clans who frequently trade with
the businesses and conglomerates of the GCPS. Though reluctant to sell their technological
secrets, when Council representatives approached the Forge Lords about procuring armour for
their Ichiban troops, they did broker a supply contract with these mercantile clans - for a hefty
fee, of course.
Enforcement Protocol
Unearthing the trutonium deposits on Triton represents a golden opportunity for the Council
of Seven. Securing such a concentration of mineral wealth would not only pay for swathes of
new Enforcer armour, it would give them unprecedented leverage into the secretive internal
politics of the Forge Fathers, purchasing not only their technology but their loyalty. Perhaps
Triton could be the key to the eventual incorporation of the Star Realm under their rule.
The plan for the liberation of Triton (from both the Krestrsson clan and Intergalactic Futures)
would require considerable committment from the Enforcer Corps. The bulk of EPG Heracles
assembled from several fleets in close proximity to the system, chiefly the Sagittarius Second
and Perseus North Fifth strike forces, both experienced in battling Forge Fathers from previous
campaigns. As Heracles' capital ships engaged the Bruderheim's escorts in orbit, Accuser
Interceptors and Stallion Dropships made the dive into Triton's atmosphere, ready to do
whatever necessary to enact the Council's will...

Military Escalation
So youve learned the basics of playing
Warpath and fought to conquer an entire
planet. Whats next?

Expand Your Forces

The Enforcers and Forge Fathers in this box
give you two great starting armies, but there
are many more reinforcements to collect and
give you the edge in your next battle. The army
rosters in this book contain extra units so you
can easily add more action to your games.

The Sturnhammer is assessed by

Corporation Central Military
analysts to be probably the
best main battle tank
currently employed
amongst alien races.

The XSM-784 Accuser Interceptor

is the embodiment of speed and
power, making it the favourite
air-intervention and assault
support craft of the Enforcer
corps.

Dangerous New Foes
The galaxy is enormous and full of peril.
Take war to the stars with five more factions
available from Mantic Games:

The Plague is a mutagenic virus that

transforms its victims into monstrous creatures
of terrifying ferocity.

The technologically superior Asterians go to

war using remotely-operated robotic legions
carrying advanced weaponry.

The Veer-Myn are masters of chemical

warfare, overwhelming their foes in a horde of
razor claws and gnashing teeth.

Humanitys many worlds are defended by vast

companies of marine infantry and an armada
of vehicles and aircraft.
Brutal warriors and pirates without peer, the
Marauders sell their strength to anyone who
can afford to hire them.

19
 On The Warpath
