The game wouldn’t have to be on a galactic scale. Entire planets are controlled by single small scale skirmishes, and the "galaxy" is a small joke of a thing. How would you represent the setting in the first place?Įmpire At War is actually one of the best examples out there, and it's a hugely small scale game by comparison. It's inherently unmanageable, a headache inducing nightmare just to seriously think about how it would play. I don't have the slightest clue how to make a grand strategy game focused on tactical combat across planets, on a galactic scale. Unfortunately, the ground game will make it impossible regardless. The epic scale of things is already problematic even before you abstract away much of it.
Without a good space game, a grand strategy game in the 40k universe just doesn't exist.
We don't have naval battles, we can't expect a good space game. 2K A Total War Saga: Thrones of BritanniaĤ0k, properly done, has the potential to be the greatest strategy game ever created, by a very long ways.844 A Total War Saga: Fall of the Samurai.I'd recommend either the first anthology if you can find it cheap, or Dark Crusade, since IMHO, Dark Crusade it takes the best from all the titles without screwing it up. There's the Dawn of War Anthology (Dawn of War, Winter Assault and Dark Crusade), and a newer collection which includes everything so far (i.e. I wouldn't worry about getting Soulstorm and Dark Crusade until you've tried the first two games. I'd see what cheap compilation bundles you can get. The large number of skirmishes can get a bit tedious. Most battles are skirmishes, but each race has a scripted mission when you attack their main base. The later two expansions (Dark Crusade and Soulstorm) use a Risk-style map. You get to play Imp Guard & Eldar (Order campaign) and Chaos & Orks (Chaos campaign). The Winter Assault campaign is very good, 2 campaigns with gameplay jumping between races and it effectively splits into 4 campaigns. I've mostly played single player, since I don't have much time for online (and I'm a bit crap).Īs others have said, the DoW main campaign is pretty good, but limited to the Space Marines.
