All About Warhammer Fantasy
Introduction
If you've ever come across Warhammer or Warhammer 40k, or perhaps tried the outstanding computer game "Dawn of War," you're witnessing the genius of Games Workshop. As the leading tabletop battle games company globally, Games Workshop also brings us games inspired by the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.
A Brief History
Warhammer Fantasy Battle, released in 1983, was the first game set in Warhammer’s alternate universe. Since then, it has captivated tabletop gamers, encouraging them to paint and collect miniature models that stand in as battlefield units. Warhammer 40k is a futuristic take on the original game, where post-apocalyptic societies vie for control of the galaxy amidst strange alien races. This universe gained widespread recognition with the 2004 release of "Dawn of War" on PC.
The Warhammer Fantasy Franchise
The Warhammer Fantasy franchise extends beyond tabletop games to include role-playing games, card games, computer games, books, magazines, and comics. Games Workshop is known for its strict stance against counterfeiters, particularly those selling fake miniatures essential for tabletop play.
With over 25 years of development, Warhammer boasts a richly detailed world. The official website lists over 200 resources for Warhammer Fantasy, and many older products are now rare. The game offers extensive historical, religious, and political backgrounds for its 15 major armies.
Warhammer Fantasy also inspires incredible artwork. The world’s backdrop is vividly illustrated in books, with fan creations often rivaling official artists.
An Expensive Hobby
Warhammer has evolved significantly. Games Workshop’s commercial approach has transformed many into dedicated hobbyists. Miniatures are unpainted and unassembled, similar to model kits. Collecting, building, and painting armies of hundreds of models demands time, effort, and considerable investment. Enthusiasts often build detailed scenery and model buildings, showcasing their dedication.
Warhammer and the Future
The Warhammer franchise seems eternal. Games Workshop adapts to modern trends, evident from several computer games released in the past decade. The anticipated release of the MMORPG "Warhammer: Age of Reckoning" is further cementing Warhammer’s reputation. With nearly 600,000 people eager for a sneak preview, it's clear Warhammer has secured its place in mainstream gaming.
