For the Emperor!

Isometric tabletop-inspired strategy Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate is available now for Windows, DRM-free on GOG.com.

Command your squad of Ultramarines in a futuristic clash to defeat the forces of Chaos in Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate. Simple mechanics, a classic isometric map, epic music, and varied in-game landscapes will keep you entertained while you crush your enemies, one squad after another, in true X-COM-inspired style.

Why should you be excited that Chaos Gate is a Warhammer 40,000 Universe game? Because that means that we get all cleverness, a wealth of equipment and weaponry to choose from, and a well-written, enticing plot that transfers well from the tabletop to the computer screen.

1998 doesn’t get much better than this - so treat yourself to some squad-based strategy with Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate, DRM-free on GOG.com.





In the Press

“By and large, it’s the best PC implementation of the Warhammer system to date” -- PC Gamer

“Warhammer is a complex, vastly entertaining strategy gaming system, and Chaos Gate does full justice to it.” -- Gamespot

“A heavy tank becomes an Imperial Dreadnaught, draped with the banners of the Emperor and drawn in a style that lets you know it is ready roll over the ranks of the enemy and crush their bones beneath its treads.” -- IGN

I only know the more recent 40K games (the Relic ones). How's this one?

tburger: Second part o SotHR - Dark Omen (a masterpiece of its own).
avatar
l0rdtr3k: Since I'm a huge fan of 40K,is SotHR a great intro to WH Fantasy?
And is there good books I can read on WH:F?
avatar
k1bell: There's Dark Omen, sequel of Shadow of Horned Rat. There's also Mark of Chaos and the coming Total War: Warhammer.
(only list those singleplayers and for PCs)
avatar
l0rdtr3k: I'm really looking forward to to Total War:Warhammer.
Me too on Total War: Warhammer. These releases are interesting if they signal more warhammer games coming (Dark Omen, Mark of Chaos/Battle March) because even though I am not really interested in these titles although they are nice addtions, I would like to have a go at dark Omen or Mark of Chaos/Battle march. I loved Dawn of War and would like to know if Mark of Chaos is similar and I would like to play Dark Omen because it is apperently similar to Total War.

Epic and awesome looking. Love Warhammer 40K. Yay for more classics!

svmariscal: I played SotHr and Final Liberation back in the day, but I think I missed this one. Does it have single player scenarios a la Dawn of War? I mean loading a single map and pitting any two armies at will. Or is it like a campaign with fixed missions?

adaliabooks: It's been years since I've played it... but I seem to remember it having a map editor, so I think some kind of skirmishes or scenarios might have existed too...
I do remember it being an excellent game, but not too much beyond that.
Ok thanks. wishlisted for now

Is too pricey for release, this is double the price of the other two, so I will only buy them for now. Great releases though, look forward to more of them.

I'm so happy, my balls just exploded.

Somewhat related: is there a chance that we're gonna get Soldiers at War, an earlier game by the same devs (I think) and powered by the same engine (positive) as Chaos Gate?

Edit: Yep, same studio as Chaos Gate.

Final Liberation and Chaos Gate on the very same day? Two thumbs up, my dear GOG team.

As far as TB games which have yet to see a GOG re-release are concerned:
- Soldiers at War
- WH40k: Armageddon.
You absolutely MUST release those at some point, as well. Puh-lease.

Edit:
Ha! F4LL0UT is on the same page here. :)
And yes, both Chaos Gate and SaW (plus Wages of War) were developed by Random Games.

"Cool" is an understatement, it's one of THOSE games I wasted countless nights on back in the day. Quite an underappreciated gem.

It is. The interface is awful (and as I recall Chaos Gate was a huge improvement when it comes to this) but I have very fond memories of the game. Maybe it's worse than I remember it but I sure as hell would love to give it another try.

YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME!!!!!!!

when I saw this thread I thought someone had to be someone trolling, but it's for real. Wow.

Still processing this, but congratulations in the meantime.

EDIT: Instabought, by the way.

Elmofongo: Any chance of getting Warhammer Fantasy related stuff?

JMich: Shadow of the Horned Rat is here.
I apoligize for asking for a Link.

I did not notice that this was a announcement that Warhammer is now being released?

So anymore Warhammer games that have yet to be released here? Excluding Newer games and MMORPGs?
Posted July 16, 2015
Any chance of a Mac version? I love this game!
Posted July 16, 2015
Very nice to see more self-published-titles folding in that would probably have never found their way back to the stores!
Posted July 16, 2015
What an awesome release. I played the demo version in the late 90's, and loved it. I especially remember the epic soundtrack it had.
