Warhammer 40k: Space Marine

This product was recommended by Sara Graves from USTitleLoans

Space Marine takes console gamers into a savage universe where humanity fights for survival against the horrific alien and demonic forces. The player is the ultimate defender of humanity, a mighty Space marine, sent to stop the brutal Ork invasion of a vital Forge World. Together with a battle-hardened squad, you are tasked to cut a bloody path through the Ork horde and establish what they’re so eager to find.


Warhammer 40,000: Inquisitor – Martyr

This product was recommended by Morgan Lilker from Watches of Today

Trying to find the time to set up an army or a gaming group that can meet regularly is a little difficult when you’re trying to juggle the everyday responsibilities of being an adult and a full-time career, which is why I turned to ‘Inquisitor’ to indulge my Warhammer fixation. It’s a fully immersive vast RPG that catapults you headlong into a future where there is only war and charges you with holding back the darkness of chaos and taking a stand for rthe Emperor and humanity against all manner of eldritch, cosmic terror. An almost limitless and boundless game, it has reinvigorated my love of, and faith in, the Warhammer universe.


Games Workshop Warhammer 40K Combat Patrol Drukhari

This product was recommended by Mimi Paul from Starkflow

This is my favourite Warhammer 40K game. It provides good value compared to buying miniatures separately. The miniatures provided have good details to them and we are given easy building options. You get a huge savings on this patrol box and a great way to start the faction. Highly recommended.


Warhammer 40,000: Relic

This product was recommended by Robert Greene from Price of Meat

Relic is a head-on collision of two of my favorite games, Warhammer 40K and Talisman, and uses the game mechanics of the latter to transport its players into the universe of the former. It’s a tactical, brutal, no holds barred board game that pits friends against each other and the scourge of chaos and is the ideal way for the grown-up 40K devotee who doesn’t quite have the space or the resources to set up an army of Space Marines to still prove their loyalty to the Emperor.


Warhammer 40.000 Dawn of War Master Collection

This product was recommended by Alexander King from The Daily RPG

Dawn of War is by far the best Warhammer 40K game. Even though it’s a bit older, the mechanics of the game were revolutionary for the time and are still extremely fun today. Instead of worrying about resources arbitrarily, the way you level up is by doing the thing you want in a game like this: destroy the enemy.


WARHAMMER 40K Chaos Gate Daemonhunters

This product was recommended by Joe Flanagan from 90s Fashion World

In this video game you command a squad of Grey Knights (awesome choice of troops by the way!) in a fight against the forces of Nurgle who are attempting to release a plague on the galaxy called the Bloom. Basically, the story is great (despite some details that don’t really go with hardcore lore of Warhammer 40k, but which as easily forgivable), the animation is a bit cartoonish but done in great detail and the action/battles are awesome! You can rotate your team and your chars can take a lot of damage between one campaign and the other allowing you to really pump up your favorite chars and give your all in every battle. I really enjoyed it and played it a ton of hours. Totally worth it!


Games Workshop Necromunda Hive War Board Game Box Set

This product was recommended by Jeremy Walker from Goblin Crafted

Necromunda is a game set in the universe of Warhammer 40k, but while games in that setting normally revolve around massive armies, Necromunda is instead a game of squad-to-squad combat. Players take control of a gang of fighters from one of the noble houses of the planet Necromunda, and then fight each other in tactical 3D battles, similar to ordinary Warhammer 40k but on a smaller scale. However, when the fight ends things aren’t over, as players fight a series of combats (preferably along with other players) in an extended campaign. During this campaign the individual members of the gang can gain more skills and equipment although they can also gain permanent injuries too, if they aren’t careful. At the end of the campaign the top gangs fight it out, and one gang is crowned a final champion. Between its focus on smaller gangs over armies, its extended multi-battle campaigns, and its many other unique features, Necromunda offers an extremely fun Warhammer 40k-like experience that at the same time is also its own completely unique and distinct game.


Warhammer 40,000 Munchkin

This product was recommended by Cindy Corpis from SearchPeopleFree

Munchkin and Warhammer are two different games. Armies and monsters. In the following decade! Players should be between the ages of ten and six. Time to play: 1-2 hours Designed by Munchkin Czar Andrew Hackard in cooperation with Games Workshop and illustrated by senior Munchkin artist (and ardent Warhammer 40,000 devotee) John Kovalic. It’s a stand-alone game that can also be mixed and matched with the rest of the Munchkin series!


ULTRAMARINES PRIMARIS REIVERS JOYTOY Warhammer 40K

This product was recommended by Cindy Corpis from SearchPeopleFree

Huaxi Dark Source Trading is the source of this information. Joy Toy brings the Ultramarines from Warhammer 40k to life with this new set of 1/18 scale figures. They are the most elite of the Space Marine Chapters in the Imperium of Man. Each figure measures between 4 and 6 tall and comes with interchangeable hands and weapon accessories.


THQ Warhammer Dawn of War II

This product was recommended by Theola Tinny from VinPit

The game is a sequel to Relic’s strategy game, and features a completely new single-player campaign as well as skirmishes with up to 10 players. In the campaign, you control one of three factions across an array of 30 missions and 21 different battlefields. While it’s a good game on its own, you can also add the amazing Relic Castle DLC pack which includes things like new units, hero units, and more.
