Fantasy Warlord
''Fantasy Warlord'' is a fantasy miniatures game released in 1990 by Folio Works. It was written by Ian Bailey and Gary Chalk who also did the illustrations. The game was designed and published by two ex-Games Workshop (GW) employees who disagreed with the much more commercial direction that company was taking. It was supposed to rival the ''Warhammer Fantasy Battle'' game that GW published. ''Fantasy Warlord'' featured some unusual game mechanics such as simultaneous movement, an original command and control system (units are organised into brigades commanded by characters) and fog of war rules. It also featured balanced magic and troop choice systems. However the balance within the combat system reduced the opportunity to generate dramatic victories. Much like ''Warhammer'', the game had its own fantasy world, called Vortimax, in which the battles were imagined to take place.

Laserburn
''Laserburn'' is a set of wargaming rules written by Bryan Ansell in 1980. Written for use with 15mm sci-fi figures, but also playable with 25mm figures, the ''Laserburn'' set of rules, published by Tabletop Games, is set in a universe where man has reached the stars and the highest pinnacles of technology and is well on his way back to barbarism. The rules consist of 'Laserburn' and four other supplements, all of which are still available. A range of 15mm metal figures were produced for use with Laserburn and are still available. There is a small, but active, internet group promoting and expanding on the limited Laserburn background and rules. Some elements of the ''Laserburn'' rules, such as power and dreadnought armour, bolt guns and jet cycles were carried forward and appear in ''Warhammer 40,000 ''Warhammer 40,000'' is a miniature wargame produced by Games Workshop.
