          "DYING OF THE LIGHT" BREAKS A FOUR-YEAR FAMINE

"Dying of the Light", the first original product for Warhammer FRP
for four years, will ship on Friday 8th December.

"The level of interest in this book has been incredible,"
commented Hogshead director James Wallis. "It's already our
highest-selling item since the WFRP rulebook, and it hasn't even
shipped yet."

Warhammer FRP was re-released by Hogshead Publishing under licence
from Games Workshop in April this year. It has already re-established
itself as a strong seller in the RPG market, charting several times
in "Comics Retailer" magazine's list of the top ten hottest RPG lines.

"Dying of the Light" is an all-new 128pp adventure set in and around
the mighty port of Marienburg. It is the first WFRP product from
Hogshead which is not a reprint of existing material, and will
therefore appeal to the game's original fans as well as more recent
buyers of the game.

The adventure concerns the conspiracies, mutations, and the search
for an ancient artefact which may stop a demon manifesting on the Old
World ... or may condemn the city to ultimate destruction. The adventure
includes contributions from Ken & Jo Walton (GURPS Celtic Myth),
Phil Masters (GURPS Arabian Nights), Sandy Mitchell (The Tilean
Rat), James Wallis (FRUP), and others. It will retail for $14.95.

Hogshead Publishing will be releasing more new material for
Warhammer FRP in 1996, including a sourcebook for the city of
Marienburg, a completely new chapter of the epic "Enemy Within"
campaign, and the "Realms Of Sorcery" book of magic, originally
scheduled for 1986.
