Modiphius Entertainment

Modiphius Entertainment is a UK-based global tabletop gaming publisher founded in 2012 by gaming entrepreneur Chris Birch and his wife and co-founder Rita. The company says it launched its first successful project, the Achtung! Cthulhu roleplaying game, through Kickstarter in early 2013. Its stated focus is tabletop storytelling across roleplaying games, miniature games, and board games, with products spanning original settings and licensed worlds. The publisher’s roleplaying-game catalogue includes Star Trek Adventures, Dune: Adventures in the Imperium, Fallout: The Roleplaying Game, Achtung! Cthulhu, Infinity, John Carter of Mars, Cohors Cthulhu, and Dreams and Machines. Its miniature-game line includes The Elder Scrolls: Call to Arms, Fallout: Wasteland Warfare, Five Parsecs From Home, and Five Leagues From The Borderlands. Board-game offerings named by the company include The Elder Scrolls Skyrim: The Adventure Game, SPECTRE: The Board Game, Thunderbirds, and Agatha Christie’s Death on the Cards. Modiphius created the 2d20 roleplaying system to support its roleplaying releases. It also describes a 2d20 World Builders Community programme, run in partnership with DriveThruRPG, which supports creators developing game worlds or writing for Modiphius properties. Through its ViaModiphius label, the company says it helps other creators and publishers reach its global audience and retail stores. The company identifies Rangers of Shadow Deep’s retail edition and Ivan Sorensen’s Five Parsecs From Home as breakout successes, and notes that it co-published Free League Publishing’s first game, Mutant Year Zero. The company currently presents its catalogue through an online store, where it offers tabletop products and gift cards. Its homepage promotes products and projects including XCOM: The Miniatures Game, a new edition of Fallout: Wasteland Warfare, and a Star Trek Adventures 60th Anniversary Core Rulebook Box Set. The available evidence establishes the company as active and UK-based, but does not specify a city headquarters, current ownership structure, or listed status. Modiphius Entertainment is a British game company known for publishing tabletop role-playing games based on popular franchises such as Fallout.

Modiphius Entertainment was founded in 2012 by gaming entrepreneur Chris Birch and his wife and co-founder Rita. The company’s account of its origins identifies Kickstarter as an early route to market: in early 2013, it launched the Achtung! Cthulhu roleplaying game through a successful campaign. That beginning established a continuing emphasis on tabletop roleplaying and storytelling. The publisher subsequently developed a broad catalogue across several tabletop formats. Its roleplaying games include licensed properties such as Star Trek Adventures, Dune: Adventures in the Imperium, and Fallout: The Roleplaying Game, alongside titles including Achtung! Cthulhu, Infinity, John Carter of Mars, Cohors Cthulhu, and Dreams and Machines. Its miniature-games portfolio includes The Elder Scrolls: Call to Arms and Fallout: Wasteland Warfare, as well as Five Parsecs From Home and Five Leagues From The Borderlands. In board games, its published examples include The Elder Scrolls Skyrim: The Adventure Game, SPECTRE: The Board Game, Thunderbirds, and Agatha Christie’s Death on the Cards. Modiphius created the 2d20 roleplaying system to power its roleplaying releases. The company also describes a 2d20 World Builders Community programme developed with DriveThruRPG, intended to support creators who want to develop game worlds or write for Modiphius properties. A further publishing and distribution initiative is ViaModiphius, through which the company says it helps external creators and publishers reach its global audience and retail stores. Modiphius identifies the retail edition of Rangers of Shadow Deep and Ivan Sorensen’s Five Parsecs From Home as breakout hits. It also reports that it co-published Free League Publishing’s first game, Mutant Year Zero. The company’s current public-facing operation includes an online shop with a catalogue spanning many products, an online gift card, and promotional pages for current and upcoming releases. The homepage has featured XCOM: The Miniatures Game preorders, a new edition of Fallout: Wasteland Warfare, a Star Trek Adventures anniversary core-rulebook box set, and a Discworld roleplaying-game crowdfunding campaign. These examples show the continued use of licensed settings and a mix of release, preorder, and crowdfunding activity. The company describes itself as UK-based and global in reach. The supplied evidence does not name a specific headquarters city, provide ownership or corporate-registration details, or document changes in leadership or corporate control.
