Fans of Games Workshop’s tabletop game, Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War, can now pick up the PC title based on the popular tactical combat game. This dark, futuristic fantasy featuring rich, detailed graphics is the first real-time strategy title to emerge from the development agreement between THQ and its recently acquired Relic Ent. Inc.
In Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War, players are provided the opportunity to command four highly unique races, including the human Space Marines, the villainous, traitorous Chaos Space Marines, the savage Orks or the psychic and technologically advanced Eldar alien warriors. Players must master each race’s distinct abilities, weapons and tech tree to eradicate the enemy and rule the known universe.
Introduced in 1987, Warhammer has become one of the world’s leading tabletop war games. Its maker, Games Workshop, entered an exclusive licensing agreement with THQ in 2002. The first title to come out of that deal, Warhammer 40,000: FireWarrior for PlayStation 2, was released in fall 2003.
Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War has shipped to retailers worldwide for a suggested retail price of $49.99. For more information on the game, go to www.dawnofwargame.com.
