Matt Ward (game designer)

Matt Ward is a British author and miniature wargaming designer, who is best known for his work with Games Workshop on the Warhammer Fantasy Battles , Warhammer 40,000 and The Lord of the Rings Strategy Battle Game systems. He was also a frequent contributor to the magazine White Dwarf during his first stint at the company.

In May 2014, Ward left Games Workshop and worked for a time as a novelist. He returned to Games Workshop in 2016; his two year hiatus was allegedly due to him receiving many death threats over his writing.^{[ citation needed ]}
