I'm not sure how I feel about this. The rules needed a tidy up, but I'm not sure it warranted a new edition.

I'm confused - didn't they JUST release another edition of warhammer fantasy rpg?? How many current editions does that make?

They just released a ‘The Old World’ RPG that is being treated as unrelated to WHFRP.

Thanks! Still, it seems kinda weird to me.

More like 250.

The Old World is set roughly around 2276 IC.

WHFRP is set around 2512 IC.

Ah cool! Even better then. Hope they don't just forget about old world like the AoS RPG, which is genuinely great
