Probably one of the best Warhammer 40K games around. Even though this game is old enough to vote, it still holds it's classic RTS appeal. It shows it's age a bit compared to modern RTS games with a limitation on how much you can zoom out, and the graphics could definitely use a bit of an overhaul, but it's a SOLID RTS game. This is about as close to the tabletop experience you can get without the tedium.

I really wish there was a simple remaster of this game with a few quality of life enhancements to modernize it. In the meantime there are some great mods like Ultimate Apocalypse and Unification mods that add some solid additional content to the game.

A great concept with fairly good execution, if it wasn't for the major issue with cheaters and hacking at the moment this game would definitely have a positive review. At this point every other game results in a death from a cheater who's using blatantly obvious cheats/hacks. There are advertisements to cheats on the official forum that almost never get deleted due to lack of moderation.

Then there's the issue with TONS of players from China and other Asian regions playing on the North American server because it gives a latency related advantage. The way the game works, the worse your ping to the server, the better you can play.

Without some serious redesign of the regional issue, and major overhaul in terms of anti-cheat, this game isn't worth spending any money on at this time.

Ideally the Bluehole team will release some way for communities to moderate their own dedicated or authorized servers. It seems like the only way to ensure that players aren't cheating while in-game.
