I still have the Witchhunter, the Noble, and the Wardancer. I wish I kept the Elf Ranger and the Warrior Priest.

Fingers crossed for an MTO for the expansion heroes? We know the Elf Ranger is coming in the next HE MTO.

They could literally just reprint this as is and it would sell like crazy.

Still got those original heroes on sprue. Was saving them for when nostalgia kicks in.

30th Anniversary of WHQ. "WHFB" has returned.

Okay, I'll be positive and give them the benefit of the doubt. Maybe this is a sign that WHQ:TOW is going to be announced soon, maybe revised for a new era.

The only thing they really need to add to the more recent Quest games is character customisation.

It’s fine to offer Sir Henry Cholmondley-Warner, Imperial Noble as a character. But never at the cost of my option to instead tell the tale of Sir Bernard Chumley’s unique misadventures.

Ahh but that's what the new up coming Old World RPG game system is for

I hope they remember to hug the walls and to never split the party.

Also, if none of the players die on the way back to town and/or while staying in town, then I will assume something was rigged.

Just Re-release Warhammer Quest GW. You know you want too....Give us the original box set and you will get all of the money.

Considering how many so-so knock-offs I have Kickstarted over the years chasing the high of this game, I just know a true remake over even reprint would make me scream.

Modern GW loves games they can drip content for, so I am shocked this game never really came back. A small expansion every three months... a new quest book yearly... I would buy EVERYTHING they put out.

And no... IMO Silver Tower was a pathetic, thimble-deep attempt.

They KIND of did it - Warhammer Quest had Black Fortress and Cursed City. The Former did great even if expansions were short lived products whilst the latter had a cluster of disasters and stocking issues.

I'd love to see the format returned - it would be great to see Warhammer Quest and similar games back from GW (the genestealre+terminator one is escaping my mind as to its name)

Honestly I dont really like the newer Quest games as I dont like the dice mechanic.

The thing about Warhammer Quest that the newer quest games cant seem too, or dont want too, replicate are the progression and randomness. Which is why I would much rather a straight reprint of the Original than whatever modern game design choices they would make with a new one.

Feels like Underworlds is the modern stress version of a quest game concept.

(I mean no negativity to underworlds, I love the concept and buy lots of boxes just for the nice models)

They had Avanced Space Crusade and Tyranid Attack as more complex versions of Space Crusade in the same way as Advanced Heroquest and Warhammer Quest (both 'Advanced' versions needed to be replaced when the cooperation with MB ended), but both were just 'fighty' boardgames without much RP elements.

SPACE HULK that was the name!

That’s a “hand in your nerd card” offence, I’m afraid.

HEY! I posted the Spaceballs 2 thread - I've got a free pass on forgetting SpaceHulk for a few moments

Well, as possibly the only Dakkanaut to hold a genuine, professional Inquisitorial Mandate*…..you’re going in the book of Naughtyish Blokes for now.

*No. Seriously. I do. And it’s fun!

I must say that Blackstone has become my favourite GW game. Only problem is that it doesn't offer an awesome monster, if one missed The Dreaded Ambull.

Dark Helmet will hear of your failure and you know what THAT means!

Well, Space Hulk has almost nothing to do with any 'Quest' game at all, though.

My local second hand store had a Warhammer quest box last year

I should have bought it but I know they’d have asked way too much

Space Crusade was Star Quest in mainland Europe, wasn't it? There's the 40k Quest game!

Also?

AoS deserves a proper, proper Warhammer Quest game. One with a complete Bestiary, and accompany monster/beastie models.

See, before Sigmar emerged from hiding in Azyr? We had the Age of Chaos. And before that, the Age of Myth. Which means the Mortal Realms must surely be absolutely riddled with lost cairns, dungeons, abandoned cities, fallen keeps and that.

Keep it proper Quest scaled. Give us adventurers of different stripes and species. Give us Bestiary Expansion books/boxed sets covering different Realms.

THIS is what I want to see again (blatantly copied from the Warhammer Quest Runboard):

Warhammer Quest
Lair of the Orc Lord
Catacombs of Terror
Pits and Traps
Treasure Pack 1
Treasure Pack 2
Treasure Pack 3
Blank Event Cards

Warrior Packs:
Imperial Noble
Elf Wardancer
Troll Slayer
Witch Hunter
Pit Fighter
Elf Ranger
Chaos Warrior
Warrior Priest
Bretonnian Knight
Halfling Thief
Kislev Shaman
The Ogre (Citadel Journal)

And all of the White Dwarf, Deathblow and Journal articles in another box set.

Some of the warrior miniatures popped up in the MTO order bundles for TOW, wonder if GW would get a brainwave and do WHQ 30th anniversary MTO bundle.

No, being treated that well is about the opposite of what AoS deserves.

What AoS deserves is... Dreadfleet.

You mean a fun little game with awesome ship models? Hell yeah that would be cool.

Honestly Dreadfleet or Warmaster would be fantastic for AoS considering how many "God Beasts" and other utterly stupidly huge things there are in the setting that you simply can't have at its current scale

I enjoyed old WHQ quite a lot, but it did have a very repetitive game experience.

Within a few levels you'd be getting a whole room full of rats that meant you couldn't move and then each hero would just slaughter everything near them. so you'd be putting all these models on and then just removing them. Leveling up still had this happen, just with goblins or skaven instead.

And then the wizard got bonkers very quickly.

If they could make the game more interesting in those areas I'd be up for a new edition. Never really liked the current design style of the Quest games.
