Winter Assault is my favorite of those, and it’s the only Dawn of War pack where you can play as the Imperial Guard/Astra Militarum.” I wouldn’t recommend picking up White Dwarf just for this game, though, since Dawn of War II is a much better game, and since Dawn of War I only really starts to shine in its expansions. I had a demo of it on a crappy laptop I brought on a road trip to Norway around the time the game was released, and I was completely enthralled by all the strange units, wargear and tactical combat that felt really cinematic compared to a lot of what was otherwise available at the time. Johannes: “ This was one of the first Warhammer 40,000 games I ever played. Just do not expect a super awesome storyline or a hidden action RPG gem.” Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War Review (RRP: Euro 12,99 for the GOTY Edition) It was a shallow love for a very shallow game, but it could keep you entertained for a few hours. This was one of those times and it was super fun! But, that fun was a fleeting quick summer romance.

From time to time I get this super geeky boner for Space Marines and do all sorts of thing with Space Marines. Peter: “I remember playing this game like 7 years ago.

If you want to read more about how it feels to play the game today, James Davenport of PC Gamer wrote a nice piece about it here“ The action RPG Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor has a much broader take on the 40k universe if you are looking for something better. If you like space marines, it’s still a very fun game, but I think it feels a bit too dated to be interesting to anyone who’s not super into the poster boys of 40k.

As a sort of 2011 Bloodborne, the game let’s you regain health by performing kills, so you’re on the offensive at all times, even when the odds are against you. You’re an ultramarine with a bolter and a chainsword (and with more weapons later on), and the Orks are coming for you by the thousands. What it does have is one of the purest takes on a Space Marine power fantasy ever conceived in any medium. Johannes: “ This is a 10 year old action game, so don’t expect it to have any of the progression and loot systems that everything has nowadays. Most of the time I have found that the bot are actually better than most pickup groups! I hope more non-warhammer-fan-friends pick it up so I can get an actual group!” Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine Review (RRP: Euro 19,99) Killing things is fun, dying because people are slacking around is not fun. But I have a very limited time to play with friends (scheduling is a pain), so I have mostly played with randos which is to say it nicely is not optimal. The mechanics are much improved from the first one, not to mention that the loot actually makes sense in this second version of the game. Or maybe I just totally love the idea of it. Peter: “Even though my steam account only says I have spend 13.5 hours in this game, I absolutely love it. If you are into hack ‘n’ slash then you are not going to run out of gore in this game.” The game itself is often heavy discounted, but then there’s a plethora of cosmetic DLCs that you don’t need and the occasional new maps. You could play also with random players, but is definitely funnier if you know who you are playing with. Renato: “While this game can be played also solo, the real fun comes by playing it with friends. It’s Left 4 Dead, but with Empire heraldry, Nurgle worshippers and a loudmouth dwarf, so what’s not to like?” It is not an easy game by any stretch, and to play at the higher difficulty levels you need an intricate understanding of its many interlocking systems, but it’s just as fun to run around at the lower difficulty levels with a couple of random players, screaming in horror and trying to revive each other as the Skaven swarm around you. You can play as 3 different humans, an Elf or a dwarf, and they constantly banter as you and the other players mow down the forces of Chaos.

It takes place in the Old World of the Warhammer Fantasy games, and even though it’s an action-packed multiplayer game, it’s still full of lore and callbacks to that beloved fictional universe. Johannes: “ It’s worth picking up the magazine for this game alone! Vermintide 2 pits you and three other players against a horde of Skaven and Chaos Warriors.
