£2 cheaper than the deal posted a month ago. Activates on Steam.
"Battlefleet Gothic: Armada is the RTS videogame adaptation of Games Workshop’s classic tabletop game, pitting the Chaos, Imperium, Eldar, and Orks against each other in visceral space-battles. Developed with Unreal Engine 4, Battlefleet Gothic: Armada offers deep management of every ship composing the player’s fleet, both during and between battles. From the fastest frigates to the gigantic, miles-long battleships, the player will customize all aspects of his ships: weaponry, defense and support sub-systems, but also crew, captains, and more..."
Decent reviews on Metacritic.

One of the best 40k video games ever :smile:
Punches way above its weight but be aware its not 'huge'
Technically has more battlefleet gothic content than GW ever gave us ... !

I've been curious about this one for a while so this is cheap enough to give a go.

I'm maybe not suggesting great alternatives but what I'm saying is that it wasn't great for me , it wasn't easy to get into or interested in. it didn't ever seem to be a big hit any time I looked up steam charts.

None of those are even slightly similar to Battlefleet Gothic. This is an RTS, Blackwake is a Cooperative FPS, World of Warships is a third-person action game. Nothing similar at all beyond "there is some form of a ship in the game", and it's not even the same type of ships anyway.

ships fighting against each other. maybe world of warships would be a closer comparison, bigger
online community. I think I've just been disappointed by gw video games full stop, but it's pretty hard for a video game to compete with my imagination to be fair

I was a bit disappointed with this, more the production value of the narrative around it. Found blackwake to be a better alternative, tho it's obviously not gw. I think I expect too much from gw games. not a big online pop either, but it's down to a great price

How is blackwake even slightly comparable to this, both in terms of setting/theme and gameplay? They have no similarities at all.
