    Description

    This was the Games Workshop licenced version of The Warlord that only had half the original mapboard (Western Europe), was only for 4 players, and had some amended game-rules. It went on to earn a dedicated following of its own but GW never developed or re-issued the product after the initial release.

    Game start was different, decided by random allocation of city starting locations. Radiation markers could be cleared away as an entire turn action of non-fighting and non-moving armies. H-Bombs were removed from the game completely.

    Eventually the GW licence would expire, and ownership and rights would revert to Mike Hayes, who then went on to re-publish his 2012 Classic Warlord version with the full map and H-Bombs restored and rules re-organised for the more classic gameplay from the earlier Red Box and Blue Box versions.
