In the universe of the tabletop wargame Warhammer_40,000, a Forge World is a planet that is completely dedicated to the manufacture of the various machines of the Imperium of Man, from farming equipment to war machines such as Tanks, Fightercraft, or even Titans.
The surface of a Forge World is normally completely covered in massive factory complexes that stretch across the horizon. As to be expected, its ecosystem has been completely destroyed. In many cases, even seas and oceans have been dried up to make room for more factories.
One of the best-known Forge Worlds in the Imperium is Mars, home of the Adeptus Mechanicus.
Forge World is also the name of a company that designs and sells resin models for the Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Fantasy and other Games Workshop games. Forge World models are usually high quality, completely playable, models of rare or variant vehicles, from Super-Heavy Tanks and Titans to Fightercraft, Dragons, and Daemons. They also sell transfers and bitz that can be used to customize official Games Workshop minatures.
