Warhammer 40K & Wargaming Blog
The recent deluge of Digital Products from Games Workshop certainly turned the game of Warhammer 40K upside down (if you buy into the digital). It seems not a Codex will be released in the future, without a batch of eBooks to go with it. Quality, price and utility of Games Workshop’s eBooks have been discussed […]
People say there’s rarely every anything truly new in gaming on Kickstarter these days. Well… occasionally there are still new ideas. Dustcloud is clearly one of them. It’s not a miniatures game, but a game to play cops & robbers assassins in the great, wild “real-life” outdoors…. with smart-guns and blue-tooth connection. Have a look! […]
At the risk of stirring up (again) the proverbial hornet’s nest, I felt the need to share these two recent pictures from Apple (or rather, from Chitika) on the use of the iPad vs. alternative devices. Why? Simply because it is a discussion that keeps coming up in talking about Games Workshop’s bias for Apple’s […]
The license (prospects?) for a full-fledged “old school” computer game in the Warhammer 40K universe may have sunk with THQ (for now? forever?), but these app-games, browser-games and free2play takes on Warhammer 40K just keep on coming. Here’s another one: Warhammer 40.000 Space Wolves from HeroCraft, a Russian mobile games developer. #1 – Warhammer 40.000 […]
Today marks the release of the new Warhammer Fantasy Lizardmen. Along with the new Fantasy Army Book and Lizardmen miniatures, Games Workshop is giving another new type of digital products a try: Warhammer Battlefields. There are two of them available in the iTunes store. Warhammer Battlefields: Lustria Warhammer Battlefields: Border Wars Warhammer Battlefields from Games Worskhop […]
All things come in three (so far), it seems. Games Workshop clearly is on a new strategy for licensing Warhammer and Warhammer 40K out for computer games, especially apps and tablet-games. Roadhouse Interactive signed a deal with Games Workshop to make “side-scrolling action game for smartpones and tablets” based on the iconic Warhammer 40K Space […]
More tablet-games based on Games Workshop are in the making. The iPad adaptation of Warhammer Quest by Rodeo Games should be nearing a publishing date. Now a company called Zattikka, which produces both Facebook and tablet games (e.g. Maze Ninja) released a press statement that they’ve signed a digital publishing agreement with Games Workshop. There […]
Here is an interesting new kickstarter-campaign. I do smell the potential for controversy here. KR-Multicase, a manufacturer of backpacks and carry-cases designed specifically for miniatures wargaming, is now on Kickstarter with a pitch to develop a free app (for the iPhone initially). #1 – What App? Well, the app is supposed to do a bunch […]
With all those fantastic pictures of the new Chaos Space Marines breaking, yesterday’s official news from Games Workshop were almost left behind. Games Workshop just released a new demo-video for their latest Warhammer 40K iPhone and iPad App; Psychic Powers. If you have not seen the video, take a look at the features of this […]
