Fantasy Flight Games (FFG) is a game company based in Roseville, Minnesota, United States, that creates and publishes role-playing, board, and card games. ==History== Fantasy Flight Publishing was founded in 1995 by its CEO Christian T. Petersen. Since the release of its first game product (Twilight Imperium) in 1997, the company has been doing business as Fantasy Flight Games ("FFG"). Since that time, FFG has grown to become one of the biggest names in the hobby games industry, being a marketplace leader in board games and maintaining strong businesses in the card game, roleplaying game, and miniature game categories.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/ffg.asp )〕 In 2008, FFG partnered with Games Workshop to represent Warhammer and Warhammer 40K settings in role-playing, board, and card games.〔 In August 2011, Fantasy Flight Games acquired the license for card, miniature and role-playing games set in the ''Star Wars'' universe.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/edge_news.asp?eidn=2528 )〕 They have also created board and card games for the well-known licenses Game of Thrones, Battlestar Galactica, and Lord of the Rings, as well as board games based upon popular computer games: Doom: The Boardgame, StarCraft: The Board Game, and World of Warcraft: The Board Game.

From 2010 to 2013 FFG was Dust Studio's partner in publishing and distributing Paulo Parente's Miniature Wargame Dust Tactics.
