Answer

Warhammer 40,000 (informally known as Warhammer 40K or simply 40K) is a tabletop miniature wargame produced by Games Workshop, set in a science fantasy universe. Warhammer 40,000 was created by Rick Priestley in 1987 as the futuristic companion to Warhammer Fantasy Battle, sharing many game mechanics. Expansions for Warhammer 40,000are released from time to time, often to facilitate a certain sort of game, such as Cities of Death, Planet Strike and Apocalypse, which give rules for urban, planatary siege and large-scale combat, respectively. The game is currently in its fifth edition.

Warhammer Fantasy is a fantasy setting created by Games Workshop which is used by many of the company's games. Some of the best known games set in this world are the table top wargame Warhammer Fantasy Battle, the Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay pen-and-paper role-playing game, and the MMORPG Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning.

It was created not by any person, but rather by a company. Both the Games Workshop role-playing game corporation, and the Citedal Miniatures company made a joint effort to create the franchise.

I don't know that one person invented the game as much as a group of designers from Gamesworkshop did.

The concept of tabletop warfare might have come from hundreds of years ago when generals used little miniatures to represent their armys and use them on a table top sized map to plot where their troops would advance or retreat to.
