[TrashMan]

No one mentioned this yet?

A simple strategy and entertaining enough.

 

currently re-balancing it (8 bolters will act like 8 bolters dammit!)

Will post the files when done

How far into campaign do Astartes appear? Do they change the dynamic greatly?

[Jarl of Wulfen]

They show up 1/3 of the way through. I use landraiders over guard tanks once I can get em, oh and titans too :-)

As an fyi, there have been 3 new space marine centric campaigns put out since release. One for BAs, Ultras and Salamanders. There have also been a few one-off scenarios as well.

Hmm. Since this heavily reminds me of Final Liberation, I really must look into getting this.

Its not a bad game and it can be pretty challenging.

It's almost like a strategic puzzle. 

The game presents you with a series of objectives, a large array of units with various strengths and weaknesses (urban fighting, defensive, anti-cover, anti-horde, etc, etc) and tells you to figure out how to accomplish them. What I like is unlike a lot of other games of this ilk, there isn't just one way to achieve victory; whether you want to run an armoured horde, a Titan legion, purely Space Marines or honest men on foot, the choice is yours and while some routes are more difficult than other, very little is truly impossible.
