Summary
Games Workshop has reportedly issued takedown requests targeting popular Tabletop Simulator Steam mods that recreate the Warhammer 40,000 tabletop game. While Games Workshop has not officially commented, a lead creator of these mods has alleged the company is behind the actions. The mods allowed players to experience the Warhammer 40,000 game virtually through Tabletop Simulator, a physics sandbox platform on Steam. This move has sparked criticism from the community, with some calling it a 'dark age' for fan-created content and digital preservation of the game.
