Warhammer Quest

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Warhammer Quest is an adventure board game created by Games Workshop and set in the Warhammer Fantasy fictional universe. The core rules allowed players to explore dungeons, which were randomly generated, and fight monsters, also randomly generated. The more advanced and optional rules (192 pp) expanded the game with many elements of role-playing games, including the use of a gamesmaster.

The game was cooperative with the four characters, a Barbarian, Elf, Wizard and Dwarf having to work together to survive.
