They stole the idea from starcraft and fallout.

Take the armor from starcraft and gave fallout's power armor capabilities and profit. Shame on you Warhammer.

40k refers to the number of tropes they stole from other better franchises after all.

your right. 40k in 1987 stole the fallout power armor from 1997!

You realize he's trolling, right?

Low quality bait.

Edit: For anyone not in the know Star Craft actually started as a Warhammer 40,000 game but Blizzard and Games Workshop had creative differences and they went their own way.

Do not feed this poster your points.

Imagine if they got along and produced a Warhammer 40k game on the level of Starcraft. The franchise would have gotten a massive push back then. WH40k : Starcraft...

Such a bad troll, not even worth the Points for the Clown.

lol bait?

if not... Starcraft was originally supposed to be a warhammer game. its pretty well known. it was originally going to be the Dawn of War series but the devs and GW had differing opinions so GW backed out forcing Starcraft to change their design a bit to conform to copyright restrictions. GW would later go with another team to create Dawn of War and see massive success itself. Space Marines have been around with their power armor and stuff since the 1980s when it became a spoof on the Warhammer franchise which was a fantasy table top strategy game giving you command of armies rather than individual characters like D&D. Warhammer 40k started as a spoof but later became the main series. There are many games set in these settings now but all stem from 3 primary universes being Warhammer Fantasy (The old world), Warhammer age of Sigmar, and Warhammer 40000. They are also all loosely tied together through the warp as the chaos gods are the exact same ones in all settings. not like copy and paste either they are actually the same. lol many of the characters even exist on both sides. The plagufather Kugath acknowledges this in the plague wars novel.

But anyways the Warhammer universe is far older than both Starcraft and Fallout. They in fact take a good chunk of their inspirations from Warhammer.

No... Warhammer borrowed from Lord of the Rings, Warhammer 40k was an evolution of that and predates every single War/Starcraft (originally planned to be Warhammer games), Fallout, Doom, everything. It is the original, and still the best.
