Final Liberation: Warhammer Epic 40,000

there are problems that will cause it to stop from time to time. i like it but do not like when it stops

I've seen reviews call it "WH40k Panzer General". This is not the case. It's "WH40k Steel Panthers". Except this feels cobbled together by amateurs. Tons of stuff that either doesn't work as it should or is useless. Morale felt bugged even in 1997. A huge swath of unit choices are useless. Almost every battle can be won without a scratch by focusing entirely on artillery. I was constantly going, "Is this it?" as I won my 500th battle with nothing but artillery fire. Ork infantry, light vehicles, tanks, giant mechs? All die to artillery. And there's nothing else holding it together. No real systems of flanking or positioning. You're just spotting for the artillery. Play Steel Panthers if you absolutely have to have this kind of mid 90s turn based war game. Otherwise, there are WAY better more modern options, even WH40k ones like Sanctus Reach and Battle Sector.

I have played for ages this game back in teh days and I loved it despite its obvious flaws... The single star here is ONLY because I never can launch the game with gog... never, it never works

Got this when it was on a free offer, good job really. It is worth little monetary value to myself personally. It looks old, feels old, terrible UI. Has a slight smell of the original "SSI Steel Panthers" games, but without any of their supreme customizablilty (which has kept the series alive even to date). Difficulty levels are off the scale as well. I couldn't even do the tutorial. Which wasn't a tutorial really, it gave no in game instruction. Probably meant to follow some text in the manual. Not for me I'm afraid.

The game doesn't start. I've tried it twice and my PC always gets stuck in a black screen. I haven't contacted support about it because it's a game that I got for free and, in my understanding, it's worth next to nothing anyway. Enough for me to give it the lowest rate.
