Warhammer Fantasy RPG (WFRP) 4th Ed: Core Rulebook
AC7527
Description
Welcome back to the Old World.
Prepare yourself for the struggle of the gutter, to fight for your survival, and to face corruption on all sides. Prepare yourself for danger, as it is everywhere, and you can’t face it alone. And, most of all, prepare yourself for the grim and perilous adventure of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay!
The fourth edition of the original dark fantasy roleplaying game, Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay takes you back to the world where Chaos never sleeps. Drawing inspiration from the legendary early publications of the grimdark RPG, WFRP brings innovative twists to build on the beloved classic.
It’s YOUR hammer!
The world of Warhammer has a decades long legacy of great games, spectacular storytelling, and awesome adventures. The expansive world of Warhammer means something different to everyone – particularly when interpreting the rules is concerned!
We want you to play in your interpretation of the Old World with your version of the rules, so we’ve created a host of tools to help customize WFRP to taste. After all, it’s your game.
System Matters
WFRP brings back a variation of the familiar d100 system with a few innovative twists. You can keep the action fast with Simple Tests and lean into that classic crunch with Dramatic Tests - customize your game with a combination of both.
Combat is savage and bombastic, with every melee a rollercoaster of contested rolls. The new Advantage mechanic adds momentum and drama to every encounter, meaning less whiffing and more brutal critical hits!
A Grim World of Perilous Adventure
The Bad Moon rises, the winds of magic blow, and ears are turned by the murmurs of the ruinous powers...
The Old World setting is famed for its originality and richness, and we’ve brought that to the fore. Adventure through a smorgasbord with snooty nobles and putrid peasants, through terrifying horrors and darkly comedic scenarios.
Something old, something new…
Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay has a massive back catalog bristling with vile beasts, strange sorceries and grubby fantasy adventures, and there’s a place in our heart reserved for all of them.
Director’s cuts and refreshed rewrites of these legendary classics will bring that same joy from decades past to newcomers, whilst adding enough optional changes and improvements to please any Old World veteran.
Pick up and Play
With mutated chaos cultists, savage greenskins, and rumours of rodents of unusual size, the Old World may seem intimidating and dangerous.
...It is!
But don’t fret, we’ve created the Starter Set to teach you how to play and introduce you to the setting while you’re having fun. Ideal for first time RPG players, the adventure teaches the rules step-by-step, and the included Guide to Ubersreik is brimming with intriguing info on the Warhammer world – perfect for newbies or as an expansion to any existing campaign.
Passionate Fans
Our creative team are lifelong Warhammer fans and hobbyists - we haven't just played all three previous editions of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, between us we've worked on them all too! We bloomin' love Warhammer, and we hope it shows through the game we want to share with you.
Stick a feather in your hennin hat, grab your zweihander, and unleash your small but vicious dog; it's time to stand against Chaos - or at least put a few pfennigs in your pocket.

Support the store - join our Patreon!
Wait.. What?
We have launched a Patreon to give ongoing benefits to our regulars (cheaper tickets, early announcements, etc.), manage preorders, and help support the store amid ever-increasing costs and overheads that come with running a bricks-and-mortar shop with over a dozen events each week.
Why?
Because Patreon is the most suitable way we have found so far to offer systemic benefits to our long-term and regular customers who are invested in eclectic games' continued success, it lets us recognise support, reward customer loyalty, and manage some items and processes that have become a significant headache in terms of staff time and effort. We've been running eclectic games and our communities for over 20 years, and this will further help secure our future.
What is Patreon?
Patreon is a subscription-based membership platform used by creators, artists, organisations, and small businesses like eclectic games to create extra content or unique access. Subscribers are called Patrons, and memberships recur monthly. Patreon was founded in 2013, has over 8 million users, and has a robust platform, which is why we chose it.
What does this mean for me? Do I have to subscribe?
No!
For the vast majority of people, the experience of coming to our store or events will not change. We will still be open seven days a week and still run our events. Patreon offers a more premium experience for people who are already firmly invested in supporting the store and want guaranteed preorders and early access to news and events that may sell out quickly.
If you're a Pokemon, Lorcana, or One Piece Player or Collector, this gives you guaranteed access to products at launch for RRP.
For non-subscribers, we will be operating a Lottery to Buy. More details in the 'How will you allocate products?' section below!
What do I get?
Depending on the tier:
- Keep the Staff in Snacks!
- Warm and fuzzy feelings by helping a local store stay afloat!
- £1 off most event tickets! Exclusions apply to Sealed, Draft, and Pack Rush events. See the T&Cs below for more information.
- Early announcements and information.

Why have your prices gone up?
Most couriers have raised their prices at the beginning of the year which made our deliveries more expensive.
I'm not in the UK, can I order from you anyway?
