GAW Overview

Games Workshop lets ferocious armies clash without the drawback of actual bloodshed. Founded in 1975, the company designs and manufactures model soldiers, game systems, and accessories for tabletop wargaming. Popular game lines include Warhammer, Warhammer 40,000, and The Lord of the Rings. The company sells its products through about 320 of its Games Workshop Hobby Centres, its catalogues and Web sites, as well as over 4,000 toy and hobby shops globally. Games Workshop also publishes a monthly hobby magazine called White Dwarf available in five languages, and operates Sabertooth Games collectible card games and BL Publishing which produces novels, graphic novels and art books set in the worlds of Warhammer and Warhammer 40,000.
