Warhammer 40,000 Battlesector publisher Slitherine has released three gameplay videos of the turn-based strategy game – and it looks like a decent stab at mirroring the tabletop.
The three clips, below, show off a decent chunk of gameplay. There are typical turn-based features here, with the Blood Angels chapter of the Space Marines taking on the Tyranids with movement set out on square tiles.
Battlesector is described as “battle-scale”, and based on the gameplay what we have here is a scale bigger than leading turn-based strategy game XCOM, but smaller than the likes of Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon. To me Battlesector looks like around 1000 points worth of units in the tabletop game, give or take 500. This means hero units should play a big part in the tide of battle, which I think is a good thing.
