− | == | + | == Role-playing games == |
− | + | Several of the miniatures games (e.g. Inquisitor) involve a role-playing element, however Games Workshop has in the past published [[role-playing game]]s set within the Warhammer universe. [[Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay]] was first published in 1986; a second edition appeared in 2005 published by [[Black Industries]][http://www.blackindustries.com/], part of GW’s fiction imprint [[BL Publishing]]. | |

− | |||
− | |||
− | = | + | Immediately following the release of Dark Heresy, Black Industries announced that they would cease producing role-playing supplements in September 2008, in order to focus on the more profitable Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000 novels. A later announcement indicated that the game would continue to be produced, however; production had simply been turned over to a third-party publisher, [[Fantasy Flight Games]], instead.<ref name = "FFG+GW">[http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/PDF/pr-2008-GamesWorkshop-Sabertooth.pdf Press release on Games Workshops properties] from Fantasy Flight Games website</ref> |

− | + | As well as republishing and expanding the Dark Heresy game, [[Fantasy Flight Games]] have subsequently published two other roleplaying games, [[Rogue Trader]] and Deathwatch, set in the same Warhammer 40,000 universe and employing different systems. Fantasy Flight have also released a new edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, along with a number expansions to that game also. | |

− | == | + | == Board games == |
− | + | Games Workshop had a strong history in boardgames development, alongside the miniatures and RPGs. Confusingly, several may have had roleplaying elements, or for that matter had miniatures included or produced. | |
− | |||
− | |||
− | |||
− | + | Licensing for an undisclosed proportion of Games Workshop’s back catalogue of board games was transferred to Fantasy Flight Games as part of the same transaction which included Black Library’s Role Playing Games. Fantasy Flight had already republished revised editions of a number of these games. At the time of the announcement, Black Library had only one boardgame in print, the 4th Edition of «[[Talisman (board game)|Talisman]]». Fantasy Flight have subsequently released revised editions of Talisman and of other former Games Workshop boardgames. | |
