New Warhammer Old World TTRPG Announced

Cubicle 7 has announced another Warhammer tabletop RPG--this one based on Warhammer: The Old World. Press release below, more news as/when we hear it!

Celebrated game publisher Cubicle 7 Entertainment has announced development of a new roleplaying game based on Games Workshop’s recently launched Warhammer: The Old World.

Speaking in the UK at Warhammer World’s launch event for Warhammer: The Old World, Cubicle 7’s Dominic McDowall said, “Exploring a new era with Warhammer: The Old World is an honour and a privilege. As huge fans of the classic Warhammer setting we’re thrilled to be working with Games Workshop on the new chapter of such a beloved setting.”

Cubicle 7 has an impressive roster of licensed Games Workshop Roleplaying Games, including the award-winning Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, set in the later era of Karl Franz. Fans of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay can rest assured it will continue as its own game line, with many, many releases already scheduled for the coming years.

Warhammer: The Old World is a miniatures battle game set in the past of the Known World.

Heraclitus said “No man ever steps in the same river twice, for it's not the same river and he's not the same man.”

Other said "Warhammer Fantasy is the RPG where the players believe to be in D&D but the GM knows they are in the Call of Chulthu".

For my first years in the university I bought White Dwarf magazine for my teenage cousin, because then he lived in a little town and the magazine only was sold in the big cities. I could see the changes for the second half of the 90's age. And the lore of the "old world" was too "limited" compared with D&D settings.

I liked the vampire clans, but later these were almost forgotten.

And with the arrival of the 3rd Edition I lost totally the interest. It was too "soon" for a change of edition, and now with those tokens and cards. That was not for me.

I agree about the cards and special dice. The adventures from 3rd edition are very very good in my Opinion. Witches Song, Eye for and Eye and Edge of Night in particularly. Several have been reprinted in 4e

If it is, I'm not interested.

I’m bemused, why would you go to a thread about a topic only to post that the topic doesn’t interest you? Boredom? Territorialism?

It interests me somewhat, but more because I want to see WotC and Gameswork Shop merge, but increasingly without the parasitic Hasbro attached, so it makes sense to do future Warhammer RPG products as 5e.

Apparently the new Old World tabletop game takes place in an earlier era than the current WHFRP 4e timeline. At least they won’t be stepping on each others toes regarding current events.

how would that product fall under 5e, or are you thinking of WH as a setting more than a ruleset?

More like a group of Settings, Old World, Age of Sigmar, 40k, Blood Bowl, perhaps others I've missed.
