Summary

Very X-Com-ish but very enjoyable.

The Good

The game is very much inspired by X-Com's battle system but is entertaining. The plot is enjoyable and it is a real treat to finally have a Warhammer 40,000 game with the Chaos Space Marines in it, even if you don't get to play a campaign game as them. Graphics are pleasent and sounds are realistic. Good metalic clanks.

The Bad

Some of the vehicles can be nigh-impossible to control and the whole thing is just a bit to much like X-Com. The basic weapons can take years of shooting the enemy to kill them.

The Bottom Line

A very good addition to the collection of Warhammer based games and a delight for Chaos Space Marine fans.
