Warhammer 40,000: Gladius - Relics of War

ЗА ИМПЕРАТОРА

It's a pretty old strategy, not bad

Game is over all OK 4x only war. No diplomacy, at most pre-arranged teams. If want simple game that goes on sale pretty often and fair amount without too many bugs and decent mod page then it's worth considering. Combat is generally speaking fairly enjoyable if your use to this genre of game, though if your not can be rather slow or tedious. It can runs reasonable well on lower spec pcs, and as it's turn based game, don't depend on fps as much as other genres or titles. Factions as a whole are well made to capture a mix of their way of fighting and culture in mind. It's thematically solid in how it reps each of them. Some more then others. It haven't any army customization outside of selecting faction color. However, I can't say that this game is really for you if your in PVE crowd. AI is rather simple, it's constantly making units but doesn't know why it makes units it does. It generally defaults to the highest quality thing it can; AI won't see that your making only planes and make AA to fight you, it will simply turn gears of production it has too full steam. And AI is rather limited in tactics, Doesn't flank you least not as an active effort to do so but as a product of sheer amount of units it will make trying to surround your army. In some cases it outright doesn't know how to use a faction. I've only ever seen AI elder make cities in unusual locations away from it's empire as last ditch effort to survive, Never uses it's gates to flank you; Result of how AI fights and builds armies it relatively diverse set of forces, especially in early fights with them but after a while become same 3-6 units on repeat, those units are often heavy armor units or tough flyers meaning you are forced into armies that are almost entirely Anti-Armor in one or more ways. And in addition, Neutral Enemies aren't "Common". On larger maps I've had bigger battles clearing Neutral enemies then fighting the AI opponents at times. They generally act as a good natural barrier to give some space between you and your enemies, As a form of delaying tool they do their part well but I'd say they do it too well mostly. Neutrals can spawn in insane amounts depending on your settings. I however have found playing with people to be pretty good time, be that against or with them. When together against AI can feel like two or more of you are working against endless slaughter to achieve your victory, performing varied assortment of tactics to gain the advantage. Whilst against Players, things become massively more interesting. Neither side having resource cheats of AI means that battles can be more varied in both units they deployed, and how their deployed; Where fighting AI can feel like doing a chore list, Fighting players can be far more even neck and neck fight.
