Where it came from
Battle Masters was released in 1992 as a collaborative effort between Milton Bradley and Games Workshop, designed to serve as an entry-level introduction to the complex world of tabletop wargaming. The game was conceptualized to bridge the gap between mass-market board games and the detailed miniature hobbies popularized by Games Workshop's Warhammer Fantasy universe, offering players a large-scale tactical experience on a vinyl mat rather than a traditional hard board.
The game featured iconic box art by the legendary fantasy illustrator Les Edwards, whose dramatic imagery helped define the aesthetic of 1990s tabletop gaming. The design focused on accessibility, utilizing simplified movement and combat mechanics while including over one hundred highly detailed plastic miniatures. While it was well-received by families for its impressive visual presence and ease of play, it eventually ceased production as the companies shifted their focus toward more specialized hobby products.
