28/January/2008 - Black Industries Announcement

Black Industries regret to announce that Dark Heresy: Disciples of the Dark Gods out in September will be the final product to be released from Black Industries.

Kevin Rountree General Manager of BL Publishing said ‘As a result of the continued and impressive success of our core novels business, which we have built around 40K and Warhammer, we have decided to focus all of our efforts on growing this part of our business. Black Industries has seen fantastic success, most recently with Talisman and Dark Heresy. This change does not take away from that achievement rather it allows BL Publishing to focus on producing the best novels we can. This is a purely commercial decision and will enable us to carry on the huge growth that we have recently been experiencing with our novels’

For the time being Black Industries will continue to post articles in support of the products on their official website, which is a fantastic resource for scenarios and gaming tools for GM’s and players alike.


There, with WHFRP, goes the last in-print game I am playing...

Yours,

Rafael

Very sad news. I was looking forward to Dark Heresy.

I hope Green Ronin takes over...

More news on this:

Fantasy Flight Games collaborates with Games Workshop (caution, PDF file)

Seems it's not all days' end yet...

Now, what I would find extremely ennerving would be if they now released a new edition for the game, to match with the MMORPG...
