anger... this post is highly biased by the author. The first 40k game, that came across my rig was the much acclaimed Chaos Gate. Being somewhat slow in game play, yet quite immersive and fitted with ok graphics at its time, I played the campaign mode a lot, always having much fun doing so.

Or will the game be more intimate, petting your Space Marines like I did in Chaos Gate?
I was a big time sceptic, as RTS won't pay justice to the 40k world at all. My scepticism was confirmed, when I fired up the DOW-demo for the first time. I howled out, praying to the Great Russ himself. What abomination of a game has befouled my hard drive... I was shocked. - [ Read on, Marine! ] -
