Discover the grim dark universes of Warhammer where there is only war. From Warhammer 40,000 to Warhammer Fantasy and more - discover it all on GOG Warhammer Franchise page.
Take control of one of the most technologically advanced armies in the Imperium - The Adeptus Mechanicus. As Magos Dominus Faustinius, you’ll lead the expedition on the newly rediscovered Necron planet of Silva Tenebris. Customize your team, manage resources, discover long-forgotten tech, and control your Tech-Priests’ every move.
Your every decision will shape the missions ahead and ultimately decide the fate of the troops under your command in over 50 hand-crafted missions. Choose your path carefully - the Imperium depends on it.
Augment
Flesh is weak! Upgrade your Tech-Priests with weapons, support items, Servo-Skulls and other mechanical augments as you assemble your cohort. Customize your team’s disciplines, choosing from multiple character classes to create a squad for every playstyle.
Unique Tactical Combat
Engage in immersively strategic combat that will test your mettle under the extreme pressure of the xenos ambush. Access your most powerful weapons and abilities by using Cognition Points and advance on your enemy without pause. Fear not, the Omnissiah favours the brave.
The Library of Immersion
A compelling story written by Black Library author, Ben Counter, specifically crafted to fit the unique personality of the Adeptus Mechanicus faction, with each character having their own personalities and agendas. Feel the tension and admire the devotion with unique visual effects and breathtaking audio.
Difficult Decisions
Make tough decisions that will forge the future from your Ark Mechanicus, The Caestus Metalican, and send you towards alternate endings for a truly unique playthrough. Be warned, however, the more you explore each tomb, the greater the rewards but also greater the threat.
Canticles of the Omnissiah
Collect in-game achievements and be rewarded with strong abilities that can be used once per mission to aid you in the heat of battle.
I spent almost 40 hours with this game and enjoyed almost all of it.
+ combat (which is the core of the game and what you will be doing for the majority of your playtime)
+ atmosphere
+ sound/"voice acting"/music
- Difficulty curve hits the bottom in the last quarter of the game
- I would have preferred more tech priest customization
Overall a great game even for non WH40K fans. I hope Bulwark Studios get the chance to make an expanded, better balanced sequel
As a lover of XCOM style turn based combat and as a fan of both the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Necrons, this game checks out all the boxes for me. To the art style to the music, this game oozes with personality. Dupstep mixed with the howls of pipe organs sing you a song of battle against the necron threat. The necrons themselves are fun to fight, each having enough abilities to have you vary your playstyle when fighting them.
If you like turn based games and Warhammer 40k, this is a must. (Also get the soundtrack and artbook if you can, you won't regret it!)
I rarely leave a review simply because most of the time I don't care to live a review, and when i live a review either the game is super bad or super good and this game is in the super good category, this game deserves a review I am a huge fan of 40K, I don't play the of tabletop (I never had the experience of the boardgame), I am more of a fan on the Lore, Books, Audiobooks and Videogames. And especially Videogames in the 40K universe suffers greatly wit titles being shovelware and overall really bad or "meh" and goes so far in being a cashgrab sometimes it's always a hit or miss.
Anyone that is able to achieve to make a great 40K game deserves a praise and this game deserves it greatly.
You can describe it as an Xcom-like game where you play as the Adeptus Mechanicus (finally a 40K game not using Space Marines, nothing wrong, just a little overused when it comes to games) sent to a planet to explore only to find Necron tombs and the Necrons are waking up and your mission is to stop that.
The Style and the Music alone deserves your money, the gameplay is simple but still challenging and satisfying, (you are going pray and praise to the Omnissiah alot), the Story is rich in Lore and keeps you invested, the Dialog is great with amazing effects.
And do I need to emphasize the Music, play it next to the McDonalds Icecream machine and i promise it will start working.
This game is waiting for a review. Take the first shot!
