Warhammer bibliography?

loki44 · Apr 15, 2005

OK, who can give me a link to a complete Warhammer FRP bibliography including GW, Hogshead, Flame Productions, Black Industries and whoever else has published anything for that game?

I think that covers all the v1 stuff. For v2 only the core book, the adventure pack and the character pack are out.

Thanks for that link. Funny thing...I've visited that site many times but never thought to look in the FAQ's. Looks pretty complete to me. I was asking because I recently ran across Castle Drachenfels on ebay and had never heard of it before. Thought I might've been missing others but it looks like not. Also saw 3 modules on ebay written for con play:
Curse of the Clan Heirloom
The Witch-Hunter Cometh
A Private War

Of course, those are not "official".

I've not played it yet, but I will convert it to D20 and inflict on a group some day. Drachenfals is a very nice module. I'd recommend it.

Good luck converting to d20.....you gonna share that conversion? How many USD's is Drachenfels worth in your estimation?

Drachenfels went for over $170 by the way.

Okay, I knew there was something rotten with this bibliography. As "future" offerings it lists Apocrypha 2 (done), Empire in Chaos (done, I think), Realms of Sorcery (done), and Dwarfs (done: Stone and Steel). My question then is: Were sourcebooks ever done for Skaven and/or Elves as advertised as "future" installments?

This is not the be all and end all bibliography I was looking for. It can't be with several works listed as being "in the works" when they were actually published years ago. I'm still looking for a complete and up-to-date bibliography.

I'm pretty sure that nothing beyond what was mentioned there was ever published. There certainly wasn't elves of skaven books.

My understanding is that James Wallis of Hogshead got sick of runnign a company, gave the liscense back to GW and sold the company. I have a feelign that part fo the reason was that GW were a complete pain to do stuff with as they second guessed everything Wallis wanted to do for WFRP and insisted on WFRP following the canon of the wargame. I could be wrong about that however.

I think it had more to do with complaining 'fans' than troubles dealing with GW, for three reasons:

1. Hogshead published several games apart from WFRP, all of which got ditched

2. Green Ronin are no mugs. If GW were as difficult to deal with as is rumoured, why would GR be getting involved with them.

3. James Wallace said so.
