WARHAMMER QUEST (original) [eng]




In 1995 Games Workshop released WARHAMMER QUEST, a three-dimensional fantasy-role playing game, in the footsteps of HeroQuest and Advanced HeroQuest. The game follows a fellowship composed of a Barbarian, a Dwarf, an Elf and a Wizard, who seek their fortune through adventures in dungeons across the Old World.

The game is for one to five players. Each player can take the role and the corresponding figure of a Barbarian, a Dwarf, an Elf and a Wizard,. The fifth player can take the monsters in the dungeon. There is also provision for more players or different characters, as the company for some years produced new Warrior packs. You can also play it solo.



The game can be played in three different ways.

You can play it as a typical "I'm getting in the dungeon, open random map, encounter random monsters, until I face the final villain” type of game.

The next level is aimed to those players who want to give depth to their game, following a more non-random approach, with the story developing as players gain experience from battles, getting trained, travel, exploring new places where they can try their fortunes.

The third level is addressed to a group that wants to play a pure rpg. At this level there is a dungeon master who undertakes the task to tell his history and run the game like a pure pen-and-paper rpg.



This particular game is one my favorites because it combines rpg with collectining miniatures from the Warhammer Fantasy range. Through a series of articles I will try to give you information about this game and how to revive it. If you love rpg's and you don't have time or experienced players, give it a try. If you love collecting and painting miniatures, that also can appeal to you. If you are collectors and you want to buy the game you should know that those copies still in circulation are quite expensive, because of their demand.

  2. You are a hero. This was more difficult to find that I expected and i didn't fancy paying £500 for a copy on ebay
