    I just seen the first two shots of the new Warhammer 40,000 RTS game now it look amazing, this could be a great game as long as they dont implement turns like tabletop game.

    I once played WH 40k, it was more of a squad turn-based game. RTS looks nice.

    more and bigger pics?

    Why would you not want turns? It wouldn't be 40K without the turns-Just another Sci-Fi RTS.

    Well, there was a review of this game in the same PC gamer issue as the RTW review posted in the Colosseum. If you want i could scan it and post it up, that is if you don't mind 95% of the info being total and complete crap.

    There was a problem back when the first articles about RTW appeared, someone posted scans of PC Gamer UK here and the author of that article posted on this site demanding that the scans be removed immediately or else. We don't want a repeat of that, therefore these links go or I start editing tomorrow morning.

    darn only 5 races,2 unknown one for multiplayer only...i wish they had all the races of warhammer 40k,well hopefully the 4th one is the tyranids,becuase seriously no sci-fi/space RTS goes without some sort of alien infestation on the rampage(look at starcraft,star trek and such)

    EDIT:yikes,monk better be online and reading this...

    They better have different chapters...

    I wouldnt mind leading a squad of Deathwing Terminators through a horde of tyrinids...

    heck if they just include the Dark Angels ill be happy....

    Necrons might also be a possibility for the multiplayer only faction....

    ...and they shall know no fear...

    err... Yes space marines do fight to the death, now orks on the other hand, they will fight as long as they are winning, when things go bad they get the ^&$# out of there....

    even normal space marines flee when things look bad - they just do so with style

    only some of the special chapters dont ie some Blood angel some Dark Angels all Black Templar members etc

    Orks on the other hand flee very often once you have got them to 50% which meens killing 10 Orks normally

    and then retaliate by unloading my stormbolters and charging into close combat...

    now you cant use your heavy weaponst against me and must make 5+ attack rolls while dealing with my armorsave negating powerfists while wounding on a 2+....

    you have no idea how many times Ive taken out half of my opponents army with a single squad of terminators....

    My Wolf Lord and his squad of Wolf Guard in terminator armour is my most prized battle-winning squad. I take it from the sig that you're a Deathwing man?

    My bad-ass dark eldar lord + incubi retinue ownes them all
    Not really counting on the dark kin to be in there, hey, I'm just feeling lucky because we're still in 4th ed 40K (with an old codex but whatyagonnado?)
    I really hope they don't go so lame as saying that dark angels and ultramarines are different races (*yawn*). Heck space marines and normal marines are almost the same thing.
    So far it's:
    Space Marines
    Chaos Space Marines
    Orks
    for variety's sake I hope they add:
    Tau
    Nids

    id imagine the other single player race is Nids for sheer alien type of gaming style

    the last multiplayer only will be a good guy which is wh yit wont be in single player - all the single player enemies will be bad guyz - so we have either Eldar, Imperial Guard or Tau
    id think IG
