Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon - Da Orks is coming!

Post by AlbertoC »

Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon - Da Orks is the second installment in the series of wargames about the wars for Armageddon, one of the most iconic conflicts in Warhammer 40,000 universe. In this hex-based, turn-based strategy game, you will lead the Orks alongside Ghazghkull Thraka, Mad Dok Grotsnik and other iconic characters, against the Imperial forces of the Armageddon Steel Legion and Space Marines from a variety of Chapters.

During the campaign, comprising 18 scenarios running along 3 acts, you must learn wisely how to take advantage of hundreds different units. Warbosses, Nobz, Warbikerz, Trukks, Deff Dreads, hordes of Boyz and many more will fuel the player’s war machine. It will be crucial to carry over battle-hardened veterans from scenario to scenario, using their experience and upgrading their equipment and weaponry to achieve victory!

You will crush the Imperial forces in the wastelands of Armageddon Prime before crossing the equatorial jungle to assault the remaining Imperial Hives. One tactical mistake could lead to defeat, but as an Ork, you must conquer the planet or die in the attempt!




The game will also be available on Steam at release!

In order to celebrate this new milestone in the Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon series, we have set up a special offer for the base game and packages at 50% off on Steam at 7 pm CET!

Tried signing up for that, but got a "forum login details incorrect" error. I logged in and out of the forum to confirm I had the right credentials, but still no joy on getting the form to submit.

Also, the form asks for username & password but doesn't feature HTTPS encryption. Maybe not the best idea?

Anyways, would love to be a beta participant, if you'll have me.

Same problem as forum user surfimp here. Can't sign in for the beta because of incorrect forum login details error. Tried multiple times and tried while I was logged in the Slitherine forum already.

Hi,

Whilst we look into this, can I ask if you can try to login via www.matrixgames.com/beta ? It may not work, but it'll help us diagnose the issue

Thanks

Will there be new mechanics? Or will this be exactly like Armageddon only this time from the orkside? I hope there a new mechanics like updated flyers.

There will be some changes - the biggest of which is multiplayer skirmish mode. The core mechanics will be the same with some rebalancing, but enough has changed that it is not backwards compatible which is why its stand alone.

When ready will the iPad version be released at the same time as the PC version? Just curious, I couldn't remember how it worked for Armageddon.

How do I install Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon - Da Orks is coming! on an iPad? Can only see it for PC. I thought it would have been via test flight.
