Warhammer Forge Exclusively Unveiled at Games Day UK
Veteran games developer Rick Priestley and Forge World sculptor Mark Bedford have spent the past few months masterminding a brand new project, a long-awaited foray into resin products and detailed expansions for Warhammer, The Game of Fantasy Battles.
Warhammer Forge unveil a veritable horde of work-in-progress resin kits as well as early layout copies of the first in a series of lavish expansion books for the very first time at Games Day UK.
You�?Tll be able to see the staggering range of resin models that have been created over the past year, and Mark Bedford and his intrepid in-house sculptors Keith Robertson and Steve Whitehead will be available all day to answer any and all questions you have. These intricately detailed models are some of the finest yet produced in resin, adding an incredible depth and breadth to the existing Warhammer range.
Rick Priestley will be on hand to explain his future plans, and Book Production Manager Paul Rudge and Graphic Artist Sam Lamont will be displaying a dizzying array of their incredible work-in-progress example pages from the first Warhammer Forge book, and some phenomenal artwork from Games Workshop artistic stalwart Adrian Smith, as well as everything from single page vignettes to concept sketches and full-colour cover art.
The Warhammer Forge Studio team will be located right next to the Forge World Design Studio stand in the Arena �?" a map of Games Day can be found here.
You�?Tll be able to quiz the whole Warhammer Forge design team on the future of this exciting new range, and as an added bonus two of the resin kits on display will be available as advanced pre-releases from the Forge World Sales Stand in strictly limited quantities �?" details of exactly what these are will be unveiled at Games Day, so don�?Tt miss the Warhammer Forge Studio Stand!

Do you have a phone that supports MMS? :D You could do twitpic updates for the twitter feed if you do!
Otherwise, you could do regular twitter updates through text messages. :)

I can update to the site throught the net as my phone can do that but only text no pictures i can do them once i return form the day as i have the next day off work
“top secret project” :~ yeah right, everybody knew about it, just nothing had been announced officialy.
still great news though, i’ve always loved the forge world stuff… and their expansion books are always rich with background info and stories. i hope the new warhammer forge books will be of simular quality.

So no MMS? I assume you can text message? Would you want to update the CDO Twitter while there? It's as simple as sending text messages. :)

Well, it is top secret as in we don't what they're making :) Hopefully they have spent the last year making awesome Chaos Dwarfs and Hellcannon upgrades but somehow I doubt it :~
Sadly I can't go as I'm otherwise engaged on that day, but looking forward to seeing the photos and updates :)

I dont know i have an I phone i have never used twitter before but last year i did a running blog of things from gamesday but i can always give it a go
Oh, nice! You have MMS then! You can send emails, right?
If you can send emails, you can update the Twitpic feed. What’s your email address? I will send you more info. If you don’t want to post your email address, PM it to me.
I don’t see them doing a hole unsupported race - for a start. Think we’ll see cool war machines and monsters for a variety of races - so why not a few more chaos dwarf war machines for the mortal warriors? I think that could happened.
@Loki
Have a nice stay at GD, Loki - sounds nice if you could keep us all posted during the day - and should you stumble on a GD '10 sorcerer - you know where I live
Hm. Mixed feelings. There’s a part of me that’s worried about what they might do with Chaos Dwarfs. New figures are great, but what if they go in some mad new direction? Forge World can be a little…out there…sometimes. Also, I’ll be sad to see the end of the era of Chaos Dwarf fans creating a whole lot of stuff from very little content - it will be a shame to see that innovation and passion get swallowed up by a whole new range of figures, rules and background.
