As a turn-based strategy game infused with RPG elements, the title grants you complete control over customizing your army between missions, allowing you to enhance your forces for maximum strategic advantage. Commanding a full Space Marine company, you can tailor each squad down to the individual marine, ensuring only the Emperor’s elite step onto the battlefield. However, be cautious—any losses you endure are permanent between missions, so you must weigh carefully which objectives are worth the cost. As SSI’s second foray into the Warhammer 40,000 universe, Chaos Gate blends the rich lore of the 40,000 setting with the tactical depth that SSI is known for, delivering a compelling experience that honors the Emperor and the enduring legacy of the Adeptus Astartes.
Set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, Chaos Gate follows Captain Kruger and his Ultramarines forces as they strive to reclaim the Concordat Chaosium, a valuable artefact from before the Horus Heresy, from the grasp of Chaos Lord Zymran. Commanding a powerful company, you'll take part in strategic campaigns and battles, overcoming Chaos forces and achieving key objectives to get closer to securing the relic and eradicating the heretics.
