Games Workshop Catalog

There has never been a shortage of advertising material for Games Workshop. Marketing has clearly been a strong point. Even so, these catalog pages look surprisingly nondescript. Already there is a division based on region which certainly makes sense since Americans do not respond well to references to alternate currencies.

By the time this catalog was released, Warhammer and Warhammer 40K were in full swing. Games Workshop had also put out a series of games often incorporating figures including Blood Bowl and The Fury of Dracula. They also followed up with a collaboration with Milton Bradley producing Battle Masters and HeroQuest. If nothing else, all these efforts must have pointed the way towards a reliance on all inclusive boxed sets. I should at some point dig out my old copy of Advanced Space Crusade for a look.
