New Edition Of Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play Confirmed By Cubicle 7
May 25, 2017 by brennon
Cubicle 7 has now confirmed that they are indeed going to be carrying on the mantle of Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play as they allow us to once again go adventuring in the Old World.
. This is great as this is the style most Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play veterans are used to!
Whilst the Fantasy Flight Games mechanics were interesting it felt like more of a 'game' than it did a role-playing vehicle. We look forward to hearing more about this!
What do you think of the news?
"The launch of the new edition of this role-playing game will be later this year and takes its inspiration from the first and second editions of the game..."

I am looking forward to this. I suspect that it will be set in the Old World which is fine by me (but if it set in the Mortal Realms I’m happy too …….. If they manage to do both I’m %^%%^& ecstatic)
I do hope that they go back to the first two editions mechanics rather than they dicey thing the last edition FFG did …. that really did nothing for me
Anyway excited 😀
Confirmed they are taking the lead from 1st/2nd ed and old world
But you can keep your AoS stuff out of it. Although I do actually think a proper AoS fully realised AoS setting would be of benefit to the game.
Think they’ve confirmed its set in the old world. Looking forward to seeing what they make of it
It’s nice to see that Old World is kept alive as it’s setting that I like and will always like over what AoS has.
Very cool. Hope that they work from 2nd edition, recreate it with the d20 system or create a whole new system. I’ll certainly be keeping an eye on this one!
Whole new system I can get on board with, but a bit cold on d20 – I like variety.
My all time favourite RPG system many many hours playing WFRP I still have my original copy somewhere not looked at it in years, maybe I will have to get the new version:-)
A 1st edition setting with an improved 1st / 2nd edition rule set would be splendid. It’s not at all unlikely, given that the word is that they are taking 1st and 2nd edition as their starting point. I am already making plans and putting money aside.
is this Warhammer or AoS adventuring.
The signs are that this is Warhammer Old World, not AOS. Cubicle 7 stated that the “new edition will return players to Warhammer’s grim world of perilous adventure, and takes its direction from the first and second editions of the game.”
nice.
Dominic, CEO of Cubicle 7, said in the announcement he is “excited to be able to bring the Cubicle 7 approach to the Old World”
I love WFRP, both 1st and 2nd editions, 3rd not so much but that’s not saying it’s bad. Really keen to see what they produce and want/wallet fears them to do something that attract those of us with large collections of 1st/2nd ed.
