Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate

Chaos Gate is a very great game, with one of the best soundtracks out there. Gameplay is solid and squads are very customizable. If you are going to play on windows 10, it will likely crash on starting mission. It is possible to solve the problem reinstalling it directly in C: folder.

True old gem, following the success of XCOM this game was released hoping to cater the same audience, and oh my! Truly WH40K experience. If you enjoyed customizing the equipment and loadouts in XCOM and like the WH40K universer this game is going to be an experience, but beware. First it's more difficult (punishing but not unfair) than XCOM. Also there are some tweaks needed to make it run properly on Windows 10, follow this video guide and you are set up to burn heretics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbgp5kHheu8

I've played just about every 40k game available on electronic media since life and work forced me to scrap my miniature army years ago. Many games have had some entertaining features but nothing has ever captured the 40k atmosphere like Chaos Gate. Over the top, Dark, Epic, Fallen Science in a universe where there are no black and white forces. Even the Ultra Marines would level a whole village if it bore the smallest taint of Chaos. The voice acting here is spot on and the soundtrack features bombastic tracks that are fit to support the Emperor's Finest in their Crusade against the ultimate terrors from the Warp. - Great work GOG - you have given this all back to me. The game no longer grinds to a halt when throwing smoke grenades and the mouse flows freely. Crash to desktop is still a danger but this is because the original code was not meant for any sort of multi-tasking or modern video cards. Potential buyers - make sure your Anti-virus software is on silent mode and there are no other pop-up programs waiting to awaken. GOG - based on this performance and Final Liberation, I will toss $10 your way for Rites of War should you manage to get that project kicked off.

It seems still can't be played on windows 10 (RS1). And I have encountered an error nobody mentioned on the gog forum

For those that are wondering the first mission crash for game is conected to either the sound or animation file for the cultist firing thier las pistol. There are a couple of quite clunky fixes. The main one is changing so the cultists cant fire thier las pistol.
