Sir Ian Livingstone in conversation with Jordan Sorcery.Along with a couple of friends Sir Ian Livingstone founded Games Workshop in 1975 to sell wooden toys and games. Within a few years they had become the exclusive European distributor of TSR’s Dungeons & Dragons, had been offered a merger by Gary Gygax, launched White Dwarf magazine, and started producing their own board games.In our conversation we cover those early years, the creation of Citadel Miniatures and partnership with Bryan Ansell ahead of the arrival of Warhammer. And we go on to explore the origin of Fighting Fantasy and Sir Ian’s transition into the world of video games.Support my work:Patreon [https://www.patreon.com/jordansorcery]Element Games Affiliate Link [https://elementgames.co.uk/?d=11216]Download my Fantasy Battle Scenario: Dead King Wenceslas [https://jordansorcery.itch.io/dead-king-wenceslas]Ko-Fi [https://ko-fi.com/jordansorcery]Discord [My Discord is now exclusive to Patreon supporters]This episode was originally released via YouTube: https://youtu.be/TO8mQPPqQ04Laugh Love LawReal conversations.
