As anyone who’s even casually bumped up against the franchise knows, the world of Warhammer is almost incomprehensibly broad and deep and the Games Workshop has spawned or licensed dozens of video games based on its various properties and spinoffs. Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Storm Ground is the first turn-based strategy game based on the Age of Sigmar (formerly Warhammer Fantasy Battles) universe, and aims to please both diehard fans of the tabletop games as well as serve as an introduction and enticement for those who have not yet cleared off their dining room tables or started painting their m...

Age of Sigmar has come a long way. When Games Workshop originally replaced Warhammer Fantasy with a new setting, fans were greatly displeased.

Add some trendy roguelike elements and other modern elements like full crossplay-enabled online multiplayer to the mix, and you have a rather intriguing package.

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Storm Ground is a tough, roguelike strategy game not without its rough edges. But there's a fair amount of fun to be had for fans of Warhammer.
