Warlord Games are incredibly excited to announce that legendary author and wargames developer William King has recently signed a contract to join the Konflikt ’47 writing and development team.
An instantly recognisable name to wargamers around the world, William has worked on both Warhammer Fantasy Battles and Warhammer 40,000 in a development capacity, and is perhaps best known as the two-time Origins award winning author of over 40 novels, including the legendary Gotrek and Felix series, Space Wolf, the Dragonbond series and the World of Warcraft novel Illidan.
With his vast creative experience and expertise, William will be crucial in building and developing the in-game universe, working with both rules and background, alongside Andy Chambers – and several other big names who’ll be announced in the not-too-distant future! It’s a thrilling time for Konflikt ’47, with an all-star cast working to take the game and universe to new heights. Here’s what Mr King had to say about it all:
“World War 2 plus Dieselpunk! Undead! Monsters! What’s not to love? Konflikt ’47 speaks to any number of my obsessions–retrotech SF, alternate history, WW2, to name but a few. I am also very happy to be working with Andy Chambers again, and the rest of this great team.”
We’re just as excited as William is that he’s come onboard!
Peter Gosling – Head of Marketing and K’47 Product Manager, Warlord Games
“As a huge fan of the Gotrek and Felix novels, it’s absolutely fantastic to have an author of William King’s calibre join the Konflikt ’47 team. His skills will be an enormous asset to the project, and I can’t wait to see what creations spring onto the page and tabletop!
