Editing Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay (section)

=== Third Edition, aka the bad one ===
Published by Fantasy Flight in 2009, having acquired the rights to both WFRP and its sister game [[Dark Heresy]], Third Edition is almost universally reviled by fans. Ditching d% for funky custom dice, tokens, and a pile of cards, Third Edition was more board game than RPG, and the box set (because it never independently released the book) only had enough for three players and the GM.  Meanwhile, the story itself was much more heavily weighted toward high fantasy cooperation between Humans, Elves, and Dwarves, generally leaning away from the blood, mud, and shit that had characterized first and second editions, robbing the series of everything that made it special. The game was only active for 3 years before Fantasy Flight declared it dead, and good riddance. That being said, a lot of the ideas from this game and transfer them into the [[Star Wars Roleplaying Game]], which is generally playable. Generally.
