Select your race and go to war online against opponents from all over the world in the fully cross-platform multiplayer mode. Sharpen your tactics in both single and multiplayer games based on traditional chess rules, executing brutally violent kills in dramatic battlefield terrains. Fight your way through violent single and multiplayer battles to destroy everything that stands between you and certain victory. Open fire on your enemies, utilize tactical abilities and unleash psychic powers to crush your foes.

Plan the attack and command your soldiers through two phases of combat. Maneuver your army into place and unleash a devastating array of tactical abilities to crush your enemies. The game fuses multiple phases of combat with dynamic action. Just do not expect a big strategy campaign.Regicide is a brutal take on one of the greatest turn based strategy games of all time. Like the brutality of Warhammer 40,000? Like chess? Then go ahead and commit Regicide. But this all just tops off a game with a clear focus on its presentation. The audio is surprisingly detailed for what is really just a game of chess, with impeccable music and voice work. This makes the executions even more macabre, with graphic animations and amazingly morbid camera angles. The models of the units are wonderfully detailed, as are the maps. Maybe some extra factions would have helped too, swapping out the Orks and Space Marines for other races from the fiction. Perhaps the game could have benefited from a greater variety of maps and modes. The problem with Warhammer 40,000: Regicide is, that if you are not a fan of chess, it gets repetitive. This includes story elements written by Ross Watson - an official author of the franchise - and extra modes ranging from single-player Skirmish to an online-multiplayer Hotseat Campaign. Despite being modified chess, Warhammer 40K is packed with content.
