Warhammer Fantasy

Explore the grim fantasy world of Warhammer first hand with the awesome new edition of the classic role playing game. The core rulebook contains all you need to play - sections on character generation, careers, combat, magic (both divine and sorcerous), and religion as well extensive background information on the dark world of Warhammer. Full details on how to run a game, as well as a complete introductory adventure are also included.

Packed with artwork from the likes of Geoff Taylor, Jon Hodgson, Adrian Smith and Carl Frank, the WFRP rule book also includes brand new character sheets and maps for use in play. Other contributors include such Warhammer stalwarts as Rick Priestley, Graeme Davis, Gav Thorpe and Dan Abnett, making WFRP second edition a unique blend of the old and the new!

Warhammer 40,000

Dark Heresy will be the first 40KRP game, allowing players to take on the role of an Inquisitor’s retinue. Their task is to uproot the taint of Chaos in Imperial society, to smash dark cults and foil sinister plots. It’s a game of investigation and will be an ideal introduction to the dark and gothic universe of the 41st Millennium.

Dark Heresy is just the beginning, however. After this basic game, two further games released eighteen months apart will allow the players to progress and explore the universe first as Rogue Traders and alien pirates, and eventually experienced players will be able to roleplay the devastating warriors of the Adeptus Astartes Deathwatch.

All three games use the same game system, which is itself based in part upon the award-winning Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. Players will be able to progress from one system to the next, as they gain experience and a measure of understanding of the vastly detailed universe of Warhammer 40,000. Each of the games will consist of a core rulebook accompanied by regular releases of sourcebooks and adventures.
