Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 Reviews
Professional reviews from gaming critics
So, that said, is this particular endless space war worth enlisting in? If you’re looking for an incredibly deep 4x - no. If you’re up for some big, beautiful, dramatic RTS campaigns with weighty, satisfying combat, and don’t mind waiting for a patch to iron out a few creases - then yes. Either way, you should recommend this review to your friends, because I’m in talks with the RPS hivemind about doing that All the Fallouts thing but with the other 39,999 Warhammers.

I walked out of the shop having sold them the models for more money than an eleven-year-old should ever reasonably own. I’m telling you this because it is the closest I came to Warhammer and Warhammer 40K. But despite that, I enjoyed Battlefleet Gothic Armada II, even if I don’t have much of a clue on wha...
Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 is a treat for fans of Warhammer and the space combat genre in general.
A satisfyingly tactical real time strategy game with a deep love of Warhammer 40K lore.
While the game could use some polish, Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2 translates well as a video game.
