In the 1980s Bryan Ansell took over Games Workshop and reshaped it into a brand new company. Paul Cockburn joined Games Workshop from TSR UK having worked on Imagine Magazine and supplements for Dungeons & Dragons.

During his time at GW Paul oversaw the relocation of White Dwarf from London to Nottingham and its evolution into a dedicated Warhammer magazine. He also helped to launch Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, and worked on an early plan for Games Workshop fiction novels that could have seen Terry Pratchett tackle the Old World!
