Bought it for 2 bucks... What the hell. Every engagement you're outnumbered. You're ships fly like they must at all times be in front of the Ork ships (so that you can get rammed) or as far from Chaos as possible (so that you cannot stop them from the objective). Whatever the objective is, the enemy full sends it, with 0 care or what you do. Most of the game is watching your EEOC captain with a red line on an enemy ship and hope that for whatever reason it dies before it does whatever it was trying to do. There are upgrade mechanics and a bunch of other things but the game is incredibly underwhelming. Every piece of art or trailer shows tons of ship in combat. I've not played a mission where I control more that 3 ships. One of which has to be an escort vessel which will die, instantly. You can launch torpedoes and there are maneuvers and targeting on enemy ships. None of this makes a difference or feels impactful because again, you're watching a red line. Stellaris space combat has felt more engaging. Also the game for whatever reason has determined that 4K is the only way to launch the game and eff you if you want to change that easily. Anyways, good game I'll keep playing it because I'm a dirty slut for 40K games.

The game felt slow and wonky at first. I blame my expectations. This is not a reel time strategy game, at least not one in the traditional sense. It is slow, methodical, brutal, FUN ship warfare. Once you get a handle on the mechanics, the game is very rewarding.

Bought it on sale. Have nearly quit at least five times because I've found it very difficult. I have, however, started to get the hang of things, and now that I have, I'm enjoying it much more. When I finish I might challenge myself and take it off easy difficulty. If you're a 40k fan, and enjoy games that make you pull whatever hair you have, (or in my case, don't have), out, give it a go.

NOt bad of a game. THe problem is the that... The DLC's have new races and new ships which is awesome but THEY DO NOT HAVE A CAMPAIGN. God dammit does no one take heed and advice from Dawn of war I and II. why the huck waste all that energy designing new ships but no campaing...

Everything introduced in this game is improved many folds in the sequel. This game is very rough around the edges in some aspects. However, if you are into the setting it is definitely worth playing for the story. If not, go to the second game.
