[QUOTE="TrippyHippy, post: 7707921, member: 27252"] I note that the license seems to be just for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, and not for the 40KRPG lines. What this indicates to me is that Cubicle is very much catering for a very British, long time fan favourite (although gamers from the rest of the world can like it too!). WFRP - or 'wuffrup' as it is sometimes called - has built up a pretty big cult following in the UK over the years. This would very much compliment the Cubicle 7 style as well as their other titles, like Doctor Who and The One Ring - whereas I kinda feel that the 40K stuff has a slightly different market somehow, and has run it's course a little too. WFRP, with it's slightly more humorous tone has more lasting appeal. I don't think they need to do much development on what has already been done before, although I'd like to see the 1st Edition stuff - especially The Enemy Within Campaign - made available again. But 2nd edition was a highly polished system, while 3rd edition gave it's all for experimental design already. I could see their being an attempt to make a 5E version, but it would be tricky to reconcile D&Ds Class system with WFRPs career-path system without losing some of the flavour. The actual game in play would be fine though. [/QUOTE]
