Gameplay is fun at first.Sadly, the story is thin and often not really presented, just some text and voice.Campaign has around 31-33 stages with about 2-4 turns (battles) each. You can more or less choose which battle to play, but almost every battle is one out of a total pool of about 5-6 mission types. Only the ships and numbers change. The battles are fun, but the fun very soon starts dwindling away with that much repetition. Not much to do otherwise, except choosing and upgrading ships with minor differences and adjustments.Although I only played single player, I don't think multiplayer is very much different.

The campaign has great cinematics and storytelling. I'm not fond of data retrieval or convoy missions though.(spoilers).>>It may seem like the map is being taken over and you can't do anything but its part of the story and you'll see when you get to that part in the mission. Some things that you do or don't do also will affect later missions.

At once gorgeous, accessible, true to the lore and entirely engrossing, there hasn’t been as emphatic a tribute to the universe of Warhammer 40,000 since Dawn of War. Warhammer fans will love it and space RTS bods will enjoy its complexity and depth of tactics. Battlefleet Gothic is a game the God-Emperor Himself would be proud of.

Battlefleet: Gothic Armada is a competent if slightly laborious first foray into the realms of Warhammer 40,000’s space battles, but there is potential here. As Dawn of War II changed almost all the elements of its precursor for the better, it will be interesting to see what Tindalos would do next were it to return to this franchise.
