This is an intense fast paced space war game. Each faction plays differently and offers cool techs to explore. Production quality is top notch. Every match in the game is unique and actually has an end game that can be accomplish relatively fast or slow and drawn out if that's your play style. End game battles have been insane with most techs unlocked, fleets become brilliant to watch- from the mighty titans to the tiny brave bomber squadrons. Capital ships and titans have special abilities that are fun to manage, especially in desperate situations. Some of my most favorite nail biting games happen when my fleets barely arrive in time to save a planet or asteroid under siege. That and when attacking and being forced to watch my capital ships or titan being brought down to critical conditions but somehow manages to win the engagement at the last second. Wheewee incredible stuff. Worth checking out for yourself. Best part is there's more content to come.

106 hours in and I feel like I just scratched the surface with this game. Main focus so far has been on the campaign story realms with a few solo maps here and there. I enjoy the game's presentation all around- the visuals are rich with great magic, landscapes and characters, as well as the music score. The best part is the customization options for nearly every aspect of the game. Looking forward to the Dragon DLC in a couple of weeks.

Fun game. I was hooked on the game after the first turn. I like the game mechanics for acquiring different types of troops from different realms or by summoning them. I also enjoyed the artificer crafting puzzle system, it was a lot of experimentation between the different ingredients. Art work looks fantastic, particularly the battle board. Overall, I would recommend this game.

Worth it. Story - engaging. Graphics- top notch. Stability - no problems. Action - strategic. Long term playability - Willing to find out.

My favorite aspect is the hero animations. Each battle card has brilliant effects. I was hesitant to pick it up but I'm glad I did. Consider this a recommendation.

Not as good as i hoped, gets repetitive. I like the graphics but campaign game play starts to drag a bit and multiplayer is pretty nonexistent. Good game, but not the WarHammer game i hoped for. Almost wished that they asked what the gameplayers wanted before they spent so much on this potential, or maybe they did and its all going to be dlc and patch to play. I'll check back later, but for now its a do not recommend.

Takes a bit to get to understand the unit dynamics and game concepts, but it became an RTS favorite of mine once I got the hang of it. There's still a good amount of players making match making easy despite the fact that the game has been out for several years. Another added benefit is that there are so many online resources to help guide new players to this impressive game. I'm hoping that the recent announcement of the South African Nations Pack is a sign that another Wargame is in the works. Highly recommended.

Wow. Game has improved since the last time I played it about a year ago. Enjoying the first few hours back. Playing a crusader and working out combos with the different ranged weapons. More to report as I continue.

I played it through the 2nd campaign chapter and haven't had any issues. The art and game play is fantastic- it's x-com, wastelands, d&d turn based tactics in 3rd person view. I'm enjoying the game as a stand alone game (not comparing it to other titles or the actual board game) and hope to see it get better. I didn't have any bugs as of yet and will update my review once I dive into multiplayer. Worth a buy and worth supporting the developers to put out additional content in the future.

Its a fun, simple turn based game with a lot of cool options. Play with or against friends for best results.

I have enjoyed playing the game for the last few months and recommend it for a buy. It has great replayability given the combinations of leaders and secret weapon techs available. The campaign is great. Gives you focused objectives and opportunities to try other leaders before diving into the free form scenario mode, which is also enjoyable and challenging.

Multiplayer is fun too with patient friends. There's a built in timer option for players like me who tend to take a lot of time between turns analyzing every move. There is also a ticket system limit manual strategic battles to focus on all of the meaningful battles rather than on the small battles that the player will win easily.

The strategic battles are great and is part of why the game shines for me. Seeing your carefully crafted army composition with specified mods go toe to toe with others. Planning for and having your strategic operations options ready to be executed in order to give your army that extra edge is a great experience.
