Black Industries was the role-playing game imprint of BL Publishing, the publishing arm of Games Workshop. It was announced on January 28, 2008 that it would cease operations after its products currently scheduled for release are published.
History
In early 2003, after James Wallis shut down Hogshead Publishing, the rights to Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay reverted to Games Workshop; a year later Games Workshop planned to publish a new edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay using their BL Publishing division and created the subdivision Black Industries as a new roleplaying imprint for the game. Games Workshop hired Green Ronin Publishing in 2003 to produce a second edition of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, and also a line of supplements which would be sold by Black Industries.
