Title says it all... I like Sanctus Reach, but the visuals are a bit dated. This looks much better and also offers a bit more to do (building, exploring...)

But how is the combat, in comparison?

reminds me of Star Ruler 2 but with turn based combat so I strongly recommend team play while you learn the ropes i.e, 3 orcs or 2 orcs and a nexro against imps and marines is a good 100-150 turn dust up ... it takes the pressure off + you see how fast your buddy orcs build up their force and can judge how crap you are against them
