Have you played Space Hulk?

It is the board game, but animated

talisman is supposed to be pretty good aswell, not a CCG fan though

Space Hulk works well, I mean the actual 40k tabletop.

well if you think about it, a video game version of 40k using the core rules and army builder constraints, it would work just as well

Oh yeah, if you were making a direct translation from physical tabletop to digital sure.

I mean translation to anything OTHER than table top gameplay.

Well table top gameplay works, so a direct translation would work too, the only thing to work out is how to do movement, although battle fields could be various sizes to play various game types, like kill team or apocalypse

Depends how it's done and when a game is done straight into a video game without thinking aobut the tabletop at all like DoW was the result is horrible.

Dawn of war was a great game, 2 was a step back I agree, but 3 had potential for really big battles of apocalypse scale... Shame it was canned

It'll probably be picked up by someone else, especially if the fantasy total war is any good

Fingers crossed, as SEGA now have it, so a Dawn of War using the Total War game Engine would be good

It depends, Rome 2 was a complete disaster. Hopefully they learn from it for the Fantasy TW.
