Warhammer: Mark of Chaos
- Official web page: LINK
- Publisher: Namco Bandai
- Developer: Black Hole Games
- Genre: Strategy
- Release date: 17-Oct-2006
- Story/Description:
| Quote: |
Over a year has passed since the Great War, during which the brutal Chaos armies swept across the Empire lands. Many fierce battles still rage across the Old World. Portions of the defeated Chaos armies have retreated to the distant Northern Wastes, while others have fallen to hostile groups. Among these tribes, new Champions rise up in an effort to reunite the Chaos forces, yet eventually all fail. None can match the power of their fallen leader, Asavar Kul.
The united Empire and High Elf forces hunt the Chaos hordes from the Empire territories, still alert because danger lurks around them in the form of smaller enemy warbands that loot the settlements of the border lands. Now, four fully playable powerful armies - Empire, Chaos, Skaven and High Elves - as well as additional controllable races (Orcs, Dwarfs, Vampires, and Goblins), clash amidst breathtaking scenery in an epic battle for land and power.

- Features:
| Quote: | » MASTER THE ART OF WAR: Warhammer: Mark of Chaos is about WAR, focusing on the armies and battles while de-emphasizing the tedious aspects of base and resource management.
» EPIC, VISCERAL BATTLES ON A MASSIVE SCALE: Epic sense of both scale and detail where big demons and huge beautifully rendered battalions clash with thousands of characters battling on screens in intricate detail.
» USE ENVIRONMENTS TO YOUR ADVANTAGE: A variety of buildable features and randomized, destructible terrains such as forests, swamps, plains, and tundra change the shape of the battlefield and add a layer of strategy that provides infinite replayability.
» COMMAND HEROES AND CHAMPIONS: As armies move from battle to battle in an epic war, Heroes and Champions learn new tactics, unlock new abilities, command larger units, even challenge other Champions in a duel to the death.
» CUSTOMIZE YOUR ARMY: Warhammer: Mark of Chaos takes customization to a new level by allowing for body part swaps, weapon and armor enhancements, and more powerful controls to paint units and customize banners. Additionally, players can accent armies with mercenaries and "Dogs of War", augmenting the look and play of their army for a unique game experience.
» VARIETY OF PLAY MODES: Dynamic cooperative campaign mode and a full assortment of multiplayer modes for both casual and competitive gamers.

If the developers dont do much in the beta right now, this game will blow.
The graphics and animation is great but the combat and gameplay is crap and dull to watch, its over in a few seconds.

How come they never released an open beta? There was the shitty paid version, and that's it.

Yeah, extremely shitty. If the full version is anything remotely like the beta was, it will be quickly forgotten in the shadow of Medieval 2

A Warhammer mod for RTW or MTW2 would blow this out of the sky.

The combat is still damn boring compared to W40k and RTW
I mean warhammer is all about combat, and it blows in this game. Dark omen was more fun.
The graphics are cool tho

This game is great! It kicks Roman and Medievel balls! Infact, it plays soccer with them...
It's just that good. Gameplay, graphics (and the optimization, OMG!), sound, style, everything! Just a great game. Can't wait to try the full one. I wonder, though. What is the protection used in it?

I still can't believe how good the engine itself is... I had hundreds of units onscreen fighting with all the settings on max (that's how it defaulted) in 1280*1024 on my crappy GF6600GT! And it looks much much better than Medieval. Kinda liked the gameplay better than Medieval too.

Its nothing close to RTW or Medieval
There is no tactics in this just throw your army at the enemy, no flanking nor friendly fire from archers. The dude with the biggest army win.
