Xenos spotted, commence purging.
For the Emperor!
It sure looks interesting. Also the graphics are kinda more lighter on the eyes in comparison to that other WH40K game -> Gladius WH40K.

So, how is the gameplay?

OP_2021: So, how is the gameplay?
You would expect that with five promo videos on the store page that you'd be able to see what the gameplay is like. I have not watched any of them because I detest unrealistic cinematic trailers, they just put me off, and since GOG is riddled with them, I just don't bother anymore.

There's only one of them theatrical trailer. The rest of the four videos introduce certain units. Not exactly classic gameplay videos but not too far from it either.

Yes, aside from small addition of Sisters of Battle in campaign mode (by some reason, they're not available in Skirmish mode).

I agree this is very concerning. It also mentions 'in-app purchases'? How are those facilitated without DRM/user authentication?

Is this game worthy of the Man-Emperor's Fabulous Fucking Hawkboy?
The eagle has landed! Happy release party :)

@data collection stuff

Every new app has to be checked thoroughly before starting to use it. Times are over when you can click "ok" on every eula dialogue.

Always check the settings, disable every online service and look for opt-outs. Especially true for games developed outside of europe. (because in all those countries they're like honey-badgers - they simply don't care)
