Fantasy Flight Games is one of the biggest tabletop-games producers, that does some book publishing on the side. They also have the rights to the Franchise/StarWars' franchise, making them a pretty strong player in the field. They tend to avert TheProblemWithLicensedGames with consistent high quality, though some games (like ''Blood Bowl: Team Manager'') are a bit of a stretch when it comes to the making a spinoff of a spinoff. FFG's first game was ''Twilight Imperium'' released in 1997.
