Cheers,

I hope there will be actual marines and guardsmen not just tanks.

[Lord Zimoa]

Infantry, Armored, Tanks, Titans, Air units, Artillery... we will have them all.

[Morbius Sire]

Hmm, i always thought the basilisk was bigger than that. But so far, it looks great!

Also, first time I see a shadow-sword..nice nice!

[Kanaric]

I hope I can play as emperors children complete with noise marines and customizable lords. I basically want table top 40k on my PC.

I hope this has internet multiplayer + matchmaking like Duels of the Planeswalkers or Hearthstone. If it's just PBEM and single player i'm not too interested.

What does turn-based mean?

So no live combat?

wait what? how do you not know?

Any videos of the game? Its nice looking graphics, makes me want to see some animations.

[Lord Zimoa]

Closer to release be sure we will show some videos...

[Portuguese Rebel]

I know this company and their work.
This game will be very similar to Panzer Corps right?



If so, Mr. Lord Zimoa, how soon can i give you my money?

For the ones who do not know Panzer Corps is a re-do of the original 90's hit Panzer General that originated quite a cult following. Personally i think Panzer Corps is the best re-do of a classic game that i've ever played. They took the original, expanded on it while keeping the original awesomeness of the 90's game. If they achieve the same quality with a W40k license i'm on it for sure. And i would advise anyone into turn based strategy games and WWII to try Panzer Corps. It manages to be deep without becoming a tedious excel chart.

Oh! And i promise Slitherine isn't paying me for this shameless advertising. I was playing Strategy Games before some of you guys left your diapers, and i'm not easily impressed.

Sorry but why is the land speeder storm driving around with power armoured space marines?

Still mind bugled by the fact that power armoured space marines rides a land speeder storm??? Ain't they to heavy for that? I mean it can carry 5 scouts, but 5 power armoured space marines? that is not possible?

Any way still going to follow this game, as it reminds me of that old warhammer 40k epic computer game,
Is there going to be titans in it?
