Real-time strategy game where you command fleets of capital ships in Warhammer 40,000's grimdark future. Twelve factions are playable—Imperial Navy, Space Marines, Adeptus Mechanicus, Necrons, Chaos, three Aeldari variants, T'au, Orks, and Tyranids—each with distinct ship designs and tactical doctrines. Campaigns follow the Gathering Storm narrative and the 13th Black Crusade, playing out across multiple storylines. Combat centers on positioning massive vessels, managing power distribution between weapons and shields, and executing boarding actions or long-range bombardments depending on your faction's strengths. You'll customize individual ships with crew, weapons, and upgrades between missions. Multiplayer modes let you build persistent fleets and test them against other commanders. Expect slower, deliberate engagements where a single cruiser's broadside can decide a battle, not the frantic micro of traditional RTS games.
