Warhammer

Warhammer is Games Workshop's tabletop imagination given a second life in video games. This collection draws mostly from the grimdark fantasy of the Old World and Age of Sigmar, where rank-and-file soldiers, rat-men, and warring gods fight across a doomed map, with a few incursions into the far-future nightmare of Warhammer 40,000.

The strength here is range. Total War: Warhammer reimagines the setting as sweeping grand strategy, Vermintide turns it into frantic cooperative survival, and Blood Bowl plays the whole thing for bloody satire as fantasy gridiron. A 40,000 animated film and a tie-in novel round it out. The common thread is a universe where there is no triumph without horrific cost, carried faithfully across wildly different genres.

The Warhammer franchise spans 17 books, 12 games, 1 movies in the CrossBinge catalog.
