This just got posted on the Warhammer app...

Looks pretty nice. Let's hope the same can be said of the gameplay!

Can't get excited for it. Seeing what Total War:Warhammer costed, I would hate to see the price for this.

It doesn't look more than a $30 or pushing it $40 Canadian game. Sadly I think they will be charging more, so have no interest in it at all. And I love turn based games.

Another thing GW has taught me is not to get excited for something that will not be released next week. Just seems weird seeing GW and not coming out next week just doesn't seem right now.

Agies Grimm:The "Learn to play, bro" mentality is mostly just a way for someone to try to shame you by implying that their metaphorical nerd-wiener is bigger than yours. Which, ironically, I think nerds do even more vehemently than jocks.

Everything is made up and the points don't matter. 40K or Who's Line is it Anyway?

Gw is a very different publisher than they are a retailer. And I would be surprised if this is a full-priced game with only 2 factions and a handful of models. Most of the GW liscence games are cheap or F2P mobile games, anyway. Games like TW and DoW are the exception, not the rule.

As for the trailer posted...eh, they can make GW themed models. There have been enough GW games now that it takes more of a 3D model of a space marine to excite me. We'll wait and see how the gameplay/animation is.

Thanks for the post!

I agree. My first impression was Plants vs Zombies the way the Marines were lined up.

Eh, considering how mediocre and low-budget/production value their last go-around, I don't think I can find the enthusiasm for another offering.

Slithering games a decent pc develop with a history of making decent strategy games. They made the recent Armageddon game for PCs and iOS. This is a considerable step up graphically.

Yeah this really doesn't look like much of an improvement over Final Liberation.

Its much more tactical than final liberation was, looks loads better too.

Really hate that voice over, mind you, having that on the ad will do more harm than good, I think.

That is so true. I was hating on the game till my wife wanted to watch her TV show, so I put on the Closed Caption, volume down, and the game looked good. I don't think I will give it a try. Just like a Star Trek game, Game Workshop video games are really not that great.

I'd be more interested if it was pretty much any chapter other than the Wolves.

Curious as to what accent they were aiming for with Grimnar there, seemed to traverse the entirety of Eastern and Central Europe with couple of flying visits to Scotland, yet completely bypassScandinavia which you'd have thought would be the obvious reference point.

Sanctus Rach Full look and thoughts! I was sent a review copy by the developers so I made this video showing off what the game offers, game has some great qualities but some room for improvement! Are you getting game? What do you think of it? I hope you enjoy the video!
