Games Workshop is pleased to announce that award-winning publisher Cubicle 7 Entertainment is to produce Warhammer 40,000 roleplaying games. 

Cubicle 7 CEO Dominic McDowall said, ”Warhammer 40K is a huge chunk of our gamer DNA so we are all incredibly excited to build on the long legacy of 40K RPGs. I’ve been a 40K fanatic since the first edition, so I am absolutely delighted to bring our brand of roleplaying to this amazing setting.”

The initial range of products will be a revised reprint of the Wrath & Glory Core Rulebook and an extensive range of supplements covering exciting new areas, as well as revisiting beloved old favourites. Cubicle 7 hope that their track record of producing beautiful and immersive licensed games that capture the feel of their settings – including Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay – will appeal to Warhammer 40K gamers old and new. 

Cubicle 7 is working with Ulisses’ Wrath & Glory design team to deliver the titles already planned for the game. Ulisses will continue

You can now purchase our new A1 Reikland Poster Map directly from our Store here. This full-colour poster is a Map of the Glorious Reikland, the primary setting for the first phase of WFRP supplements, as detailed in Chapter 10 of the WFRP Rulebook. This high resolution map is perfect for use in your RPG gaming session or framed and hung on your wall.

Dripping with useful details for both players and GMs, the Map of Glorious Reikland presents the Grand Province of Reikland, one of the most powerful realms of Sigmar’s Empire. From the dank swamps of the Grootscher March to the west, to the mile-wide flows of the River Reik to the east, the map pictures dozens of towns, mountain ranges, dark forests, filthy marches, hidden places, and much more, all of which are ready to inspire your next grim and perilous adventure.

Created by award-winning cartographer Andy Law, the intricately detailed Map of Glorious Reikland is an essential purchase for all Warhammer fans. Further,

#MortalRealmsMonday

Yesterday, we announced some Age of Sigmar updates at Warhammer Fest that we are excited to share with you now, in what will be the first of many #MortalRealmsMondays!

Firstly, we are delighted to reveal the game’s official title:

Soulbound

Soulbound Starter Set

While we revealed the core book cover art a while back, we can now discuss the starter set and share its fantastic new cover art. The starter set will contain two books: an adventure book that will teach players and GMs how to play Soulbound; and a city guide that will give more information on a brand new city in the realm of Aqshy (more on that in later updates!).

As well as the two books, the Starter Set will come with pre-generated characters, player handouts, reference sheets, and lots more goodies we will discuss soon. The cover, created by Johan Grenier (who also created the core book cover art), is shown in full below. The top section (the city guide cover) depicts a city being cleansed of the taint of

What a weekend! The Cubicle 7 team attended Warhammer Fest in Coventry and thoroughly enjoyed every minute, from showing off the WFRP Starter Set to running demos and meeting so many Warhammer fans, its safe to say we had a blast!

C7 CEO and game designer Dominic McDowall, WFRP Producer Andy Law and AoS Producer Emmet Byrne gave a seminar on Warhammer Fantasy Role-play, Age of Sigmar and our future plans on Sunday. Look out for exclusive reveals from this talk later today!

We also launched our new large scale Reikland Poster Map, these will be available to purchase on our website over the coming week for £15.99. Keep an eye out for updates! Thanks to all of you who popped by the stand, said hello, played our demos or purchased our RPGS. We look forward to chatting more at UK Games Expo later this month!

(Part #2)

Hey folks, Ben here, and I’m back to finish this Rulebook-is-Treasure-Chest thing off! Last time I talked about some of the Character and Action optional rules from the rulebook, and their effects, not just on the mechanics of your Campaign, but on the fiction as well. I discussed how every change you make changes how the Old World lives, breathes, and feels at the table, and pointed out some options you might want to adopt, depending on your playstyle.

But, as I said last time, there are two more categories of options to go through: System optional rules and the Between Adventures chapter, so let’s not waste any more time!

System Options

Options: Deathblow

Page 160 brings us the Deathblow optional rule, which — as the name suggests — is combat focused! Deathblow allows Characters to keep attacking if they manage to kill an opponent in melee combat. It’s basically the Gotrek Gurnisson rule where everyone's favourite slayer wades through scores of lesser

It's that time of the week again, #WARHAMMERWEDNESDAY!  So, let's get stuck right into Ben's latest blog!

It's WFRP Time, again! Hey folks, I'm Ben, and I literally cannot stop talking about Warhammer. Honestly, it's a serious problem... but we'll manage, won't we? This week, my compulsion has me thinking about all the little optional rules scattered throughout Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, and what they might mean for the fiction of your Warhammer game, in addition to the mechanics.

As I've said before, the fiction is as important as the mechanics of a game, and the two are closely related. We know WFRP is a game about gritty heroes because we have so many rules dedicated to permanent injury, disease, and the slow encroachment of Chaos. The mechanics reinforce the fiction, and vice versa. Therefore, it stands to reason that every change you make to the rules — whether it's house rules or the Options given to you in the rulebook — will, in turn, change the fiction
