THE SHORT VERSION

Andy Hall brings Rick Priestley, Jervis Johnson, Gav Thorpe and Alessio Cavatore together to trace Warhammer from rules for existing miniature collections to a widely accessible army-book game. They discuss changes to movement, characteristics, magic and army selection, identifying major generational shifts rather than seven wholly separate inventions. Alan Merrett and John Blanche add the setting’s thematic and visual history. The conversation repeatedly returns to miniatures as the reason the game began and continues to develop.
