Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate

Strategy and Wargaming Game from Strategic Simulations Inc. (SSI), by Random Games

Turn-based strategy game set in the complex, fantasy universe of Warhammer 40K which was developed as a board-based war game. The game offers a good selection of diverse missions connected by a plot involving the recovery of parts of a valuable artifact. You command a group of Ultramarines and send squads of men to complete the various missions. The gameplay consists of tactical combat. You must select and equip five-member squads. Managing the development of individual men is necessary since they gain experience in the field and this becomes increasingly important as the game progresses. The game allows you to develop complex strategies and the control system works well. There is also the option for randomly-generated missions and four people can compete over LAN. The game is played on an isometric view landscape and the graphics are effective.
