Warhammer Historical Wargames,[1] also known as Warhammer Historical, was the publisher of Warhammer Ancient Battles and other game systems. It was an imprint from the BL Publishing division of Games Workshop.[2] From a leaked email from Rob Broom, who was the director of Warhammer Historical, it appears that Warhammer Historical is now a property of Forge World and his position has become redundant.[3] In November 2010, it was reported that Games Workshop had dissolved the Warhammer Historical corporate structure.[4]

On 25 May 2012, Games Workshop closed Warhammer Historical as a publishing and distribution arm of the company.[5] These games are no longer available to purchase new, and presumably, production of any new systems has also ceased.
