"Armageddon, a world whose name has become a byword for war and destruction on a massive scale…" -Lord Commander Solar Eugenian

There is no peace amongst the stars... It is the 41st millennium and there is only war!

We live in the Imperium of Mankind, the greatest empire the galaxy has ever known. Millions of planets united in their adoration for the Emperor.

But we are not alone…

A massive space hulk is drifting towards Armageddon, and the planet is threatened by the war hungry brutal Orks. Welcome to the battlefield!

Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon is a fantasy war game set in the Second War of Armageddon. You take the role of defending the planet as the Imperium of Man against the Ork invaders. Throughout the campaign you will also be joined by three chapters of Space Marines: the Salamanders, Blood Angels and the Ultramarines.

In this hex-based, turn-based strategy game, players will lead the Imperial forces of the Armageddon Steel Legion and Space Marines from a variety of Chapters against the Ork invasion through over 30 scenarios, on the hostile terrain of the planet and its gigantic Hive Cities.

The game features a complex plot, involving known characters from the Warhammer 40,000 universe and while advancing through the campaign, the player will have the ability to carryover his core force from scenario to scenario.

Players fight alongside Commissar Yarrick and Commander Dante against the cunning Ork Warboss Ghazghkull Thraka and carry over battle-hardened veterans from scenario to scenario, using their experience and upgrading their equipment.

On top all this extensive modding options are available through a powerful and easy-to-use game editor.

Reviews

Great game.. but
Nadinbrzezinski

It needs new scenarios and campaigns. Perhaps a new game in the dark imperium setting using this engine. It is a great game otherwise.


Way too expensive
dieing for the daily show fix!

This feels like the developers are taking advantage of 40k fans who will pay for content. Great game that is fun on an iPad. Lots of thought and detail into strategy & lore. Ultimately disappointing value at such a high price point. False advertising. The description states “you can play as the space marines”. This is only true if you pay $10 more for a dlc pack. After getting the orcs and Armageddon package for $30, it is a huge rip off to see such high prices for additional content. What you get for the price is not worth it. Honestly, I think $9.99 is a fair price, with the space marine dlc included. Devs taking advantage of die hard fans otherwise.


What a great game!

I’ve never even played warhammer before but this game is awesome! I’m hooked on it. Great strategic and challenging fun! I’m about half way through the campaign and can already tell I will be purchasing the expansions. Really hope u guys bring more!


Crashes after a few moves...

Have yet to finish a single battle without a total crash to home screen with all of the game lost. This happened on every game I tried. I am on iPad Air with latest version iOS.

Worth the wait!

Coming off beta testing Warhammer 40,0000 Armageddon I have to say that I was really impressed with what I’ve seen and played. It’s a no brainer that Slitherine has created the perfect niche for one of Games Workshop most popular franchise by bringing the game to iPad. Haven’t played the PC version, but based on other reports the game was ported perfectly to the iPad and that I can attest to. As a newbie to the Warhammer franchise, I have to say Slitherine has created a perfect turn based Hex game and plan on playing this game for quite a long while. Great job!


Really great title
Herbert Derps

I had been playing Games Workshop table top games since the late 80s. It really was a highlight of my youth. Years later I no longer desired to spend $100s to $1000s on the hobby, but I still like the WH40K universe and the different armies. This game is a great alternative and I plan on buying all the DLC and anything else this developer (Slitherine) designs for GW. This one truly shines, and is easily the best GW game on the App Store. Oh yeah, and if you like this style of game check out Panzer Corps made by Slitherine too.


Great Turn Based Strategy Game

I have not played the PC game, but this has been ported very well to the iPad. I enjoy the carry over of experienced troops from one scenario to the next. It's hard to not get attached to them. Other than small UI issues, I have found the game to very enjoyable.

Amazing game!

To say that this game is great is not enough. As a strategy fan I appreciate all effort its creators put into making such a wonderful title. It plays very nice, plays just as on a PC, and maybe even better: using touch controls and moving units with your touch it is the closest thing to the tabletop Warhammer 40k you can get except the tabletop itself.
