Again as part of Euro Assault 2009, I was fortunate enough to be able to visit "Warhammer World" in Nottingham. WW is the worldwide public headquarters of Games Workshop and somewhat of a mecca for people like me who are long time Warhammer/Warhammer 40K/Lord of the Rings/Epic/Warmaster/Necromunda/Mordheim etc etc fans. As much as I love to hate GW for their asinine business practices I really wanted to go to Warhammer World. So here are some pictures and a brief report on WW itself.
The place itself was easy to find in a light industrial section of Nottingham and consists of several discrete areas. There is a spacious playing area with excellent terrain, Bugman's Bar and restaurant, the Citadel museum display upstairs, and of course an amply-stocked retail facility with Warhammer, 40K, and LotR stuff.

[Image][Image] Had to take some photos of the Studio Chaos Dwarf army from the '90s - "Big Hats" were my first Warhammer army! [Image] Directions to the retail store are clearly marked... just as you'd expect ;-)Highly recommended for Warhammer fans!
