Hi guys, haven't been on these forums in quite some time have I, well anyway I thought I'd post an idea I had for a warhammer 40k game, that if enough people like maybe we could send off to GW to see what they could do with it Anyway, here goes.

The game follows the same kind of basic mechanics as DayZ, as in its a hardcore survival game, you need to eat, drink, hide and gather supplies. But you start as a space marine, stripped of supplies and only wearing his bare armour thats severely battle damaged. Your in a small building. Outside you see the world of the game, completely decimated, destroyed, lifeless. Buildings crashed to the floor, rubble swarming the streets like ants, bodies strewn around like litter. The wildlife of the planet is bare, grass is dry, the soil is hard, and plants crushed. Trees and forests are charred, and animals are no where to be seen (maybe this planet could be randomly generated to give a different experience each time, or specially designed). You remember what happened. You are not only a space marine, but a survivor. A survivor of what. You survived a Tyranid hive fleet attack! However, tyranids are still about, patrolling the streets, knowing on flesh, generally being a terrifying beast. Its you job in this sandbox survival game to survive as long as possible, to find weapons to defend yourself, food to keep you alive, and water as well (your nutrient unit that provides you with food and water is destroyed). You can move slowly to avoid contact. You can build up your base and fortify buildings. You can find few other survivors and complete quests for them for supplies.

So, what do you guys thinks?

It would be far better as a guardsmen, remember that Space Marines can eat damn near anything for nutrition, wherein guardsmen steve doesnt have any fancy organs like that.
