110

Very close to the all time lowest price this is a great deal for this highly rated game.
Game is made in Australia (Sydney) so buying it supports local talent.

From the website:

Adeptus Titanicus: Dominus, the 3D turn-based strategy PC game adaptation of Games Workshop’s classic Titan Legions tabletop game, puts you in control of the greatest weapons available to the Imperium of Man, the mighty Titans of the Adeptus Titanicus!

Now available on Steam Early Access, Adeptus Titanicus: Dominus features a Skirmish mode and a Scenarios mode against an AI opponent for single-player, as well as an online Multi-Player mode. Upon full release, the game will also offer an exciting single-player campaign.

Control a force of Titans
In Dominus, choose to control a force of Titans from the loyalist Legions of Astorum (Warp Runners), Gryphonicus (War Griffons), Crucius (Warmongers) or Osedax (The Cockatrices), or choose from the traitorous Chaos Legions of Mortis (Death Heads), Vulcanum (Dark Fire), Damnosus (Lords of Ruin) and Fureans (Tiger Eyes).

Futuristic warfare
Utilising the tabletop Titan Legions rules system as its foundation, Dominus features an easy-to-play yet deep strategic and tactical experience via its streamlined command system, which sees you and your opponent giving activation orders to your Titans, resulting in fast-paced battles. It successfully marries this strategic play with action sequences as the gargantuan Titans exchange volleys of cannon shots, blistering laser blasts and other epic, super-powered weapons of the far off future!

Easy to play, challenging to master
While luck will play a part as you trade blows with your foe on the futuristic battlefields of the 41st Millennium, your path to victory lies in your army list building and how you manoeuvre your units upon the battlefield. As a commander, you will have access to the most classic, iconic Titan units from the Warhammer 40,000 universe: Warhounds, Reavers and the gigantic Warlord, for both the Imperial and Chaos factions. Each of these Titans will have multiple variants available, featuring different weapon configurations, thereby enabling your Titans to fulfil the battlefield role your strategy demands.

A living battlefield
Adeptus Titanicus: Dominus will feature a "living battlefield" that employs unit and battlefield animations to show players the Warhammer 40,000 universe they know and love.

THE ROAD AHEAD
We have now released the first Major Update and commenced work on the second Major Update for Adeptus Titanicus: Dominus, which focuses primarily on the addition of a single-player campaign mode.

In parallel, we intend to release a series of minor updates to the game, which will typically bring in new Titan weapon systems, new battlefields and/or environment art assets—and of course bug-fixes!

Enjoy!

  • Does this play like the tabletop game? Or more like a traditional RTS?

    • its turn based, if that is what you mean. still an early access title but with the complexity of what they are doing, even at full price it feels like a bargain. as much as i love dawn of war series, this feels more like a playing a game on the table with mates back in high school.

  • I like how Games Workshop takes risks with these indie studios, but I wish there were more AAA 40k games. Last ones we had were the Dawn of War series and Space Marine. Imagine a full fledged RPG ala Baldur's Gate but set in 40k. Would be amazing.
