The Making of Warhammer | Part Three: Boxing the Behemoth

Part three of the complete making of Warhammer - a series looking at the development and release of the greatest war game in tabletop history! Whilst 40k instantly sky rockets, Rick Priestley returns to his other creation to refine and simplify it for a new generation: Warhammer Fantasy Battles 4th edition makes the game more accessible than ever, even going so far as to put brand new plastic miniatures in its starter box! This new drive towards younger consumers and an overall shift to a more formal and corporate way of working marks the beginning of a major change for Games Workshop and its games - play time is over.
