Excellent Game

I have played many role playing systems and I would have to say that by far Warhammer is the best system. It was recommended by a friend, I had never heard of it before.. but I'm glad I took the chance on buying it.The system of career advancements, skills and the *one* tome of rules (not 5 different books that you need to collect) makes for an excellent game.Buy this book, you won't regret it!

Most unique RPG I've seen yet

"On a lethality scale from 0 (a day with Barney) to 100 (first second of the game, you are seriously wounded or dead), this rpg rates a 90." I love this game. Where else will you find a character kill a stag of Korne(lesser deamon) and two Beastmen(strong men), then, after that, say, "Damn!! I lived!" Slayers are the best.

THE Best Role-Playing Game Ever!

I have tried many role playing games over the years, and the only one I really enjoy is WFRP. Many people say AD & D is better, but i find that WFRP is much more realistic and not so simplified (although it is still easy to learn). If you want to buy just one role-playing game then this is the one for you.

You must buy it

I can only agree with all the other reviewers: This is by far the best rpg ever! In my humble opinion..... Well, you got your skill list, about 100 careers instead of levels, 150 spells(oh, and soon Realms of Sorcery comes out too) and enough monsters for some time. But what you must remember is that this is the original dark fantasy game. Your players save the world? Yes. And get fame and fortune? No. In fact, they were the only people who knew about the grave danger. And there is a warrant on them for killing the evil demonologist, who everybody thought was good. Get it? You might prefer your politically correct, heroic rpg's, but many, including me, find it refreshing to see a realistic world, with races who hate each other, noblewomen who are beaten, and adventurers who are broke. To make it even better, the system and the world, in some way or another, outright FORCES the game to get based on roleplaying instead of combat. You may have your AD & D's, runequests, and Castle Falkensteins: I don't care. I got the real goodie.

The Best Role-Playing Game Ever

I have played this game since I was a youth of 13 years old. Ten years later it is just as fresh and playable. The supplements that are out there are useful and well written but they are not an necessity. The magic system is complicated and difficult to get used to but that only adds to the unique nature of the experienced character. Rules do not slow down this book and the time from first picking up the book to being able to play is much reduced as opposed to other games. All in all if you play other role-playing games fine. But there simply isn't another RPG that compares with WarhammerFRP.P.S. the cover price now is significantly better than the $35 I spent on it in 1989.
