Have you seen THIS?

Boy oh boy oh boy...

Ok, I know this forum is more real-world tabletop game-orientated, but for those who don't know this yet, Warhammer Battle is being released later in the year on PC. Go see:

http://www.markofchaos.com/

and check out the 4 min trailer (big - 111 Mb!) at:

Can't help but get excited about it :-)

Hmm, maybe I should trawl othe forums before I go off like that... News of the (several) Warhammer games are available on the "massively multiplayer" forum.

Ahem. Carry on.

warhammer online is set to come out next year, alpha starts in august and they hoped to have the closed beta start by the end of october.

the new fantasy rts im not so sure on as they are using a licenced engine and an unknown developer, im reserving judgement till i get to try the beta.

there are 3 more games on the way too but i cant talk about em

From the trailers I have seen of Mark of Chaos I am really looking forward to it. GW have been doing some pretty damn cool pc games for years - from Space Hulk (so hard but so addictive..) to Shadows of the Horned Rat and my personal favorite of Final liberation, who can't love 8000 point armies smashing together!

I came across a story yesterday that there's a new version of Blood Bowl in development. Hopefully it will be better than the last attempt.

I think the crowd that did Chaos League are doing it, but I don't remember for sure.

What I really want is a Planetside style 40k MMOFPS, set either during the Horus Heresy or the latest Black Crusade.

Hopefully if the new Warhammer : Age of Reckoning does well we may see a 40k MMO in the future.

bloodbowl was one of them, i saw that yesterday so i guess i can talk about it.

The latest Black Crusade tbh, I want to try a Defiler

Would love to see a good Bloodbowl game, there was a really good version of it in Java which has a site ran here: http://fumbbl.com/ (Foot upon mouth blood bowl league ), graphics are non-exsistant, but the gameplay is excllent, used to play it extensively about a year ago, might have came on a bit since then.

FUMBBL FTW!!

A group of us play it out in DCU alot, its just great fun and I love the fact you can print off the team sheet and actually use it.

I used to play on fummbbl, but haven't in ages. For some reason people didn't like playing against Chaos teams, considering them too violent or something.
