i love this idea,but a species such as this,not creating its own technology,would be at a loss if they came across obstacles,unless the tech they stole was sufficient too do this...nice idea though,i would like too hear other opinions...
@OMNISLASHER1000 they obviously wouldnt be wiped out as soon as they met a race that has better tech. it takes time and in that time they would adapt. im guessing thats how it works.
i know this isnt really important in all but doesnt it look like terminators arms are extremely small for a terminator armor when there posed to have like almost barrel arms.....some of them.
1,000 chapters with 1,000 Space Marines. Huh, ironically, I was looking for that answer just as the video pointed it out. The Emperor Smiles upon me this day.
@Apophisguard There were more advanced things, like explosive bolters, assault cannons, and the melee weapons like hammers and the powered claws, but they were in later missions, or specific skirmish ones. It's a shame you couldn't choose though.
Surely if Gene Stealers have a very strong survival drive they wouldn't die fearlessly in battle? They'd be like "Blow this I'm getting out of here" if they really were that into survival.
@Beastlyrich Heh, good point, but i think it was more in the vein of the fact that they aren't cowards so they do whatever it takes to accomplish their specific mission and ensure their survival.
this game is so epic, tactical FPS with hand to hand and squad based, hard scary and good old fashioned fun, screw all you hotos out there talking your shit go jerk off to modern warfare
@AmmoMuther Nope it came from a table top game and other games set in the 40K universe. Look up Lord Commander for videos of an older 40K strategy game.
this game awsome but you might find your self gettin your ass kick complty un-fairly the monsters come you at full stirke with out defend you self or some times top left hardly a chace to defend your self really hard good luck out there and happy hunting
If you mean the music from inside the game, the heavy metal stuff - was from a band called "Bolt Thrower". Games Workshop dabbled with producing British metal bands in exchange for them naming themselves after various GW products.
It had its ups and downs for the time. Basically, what overshadowed this game was the fact that it came out a few months before Quake, and its presentation was sorta convoluted. Beneath all that was a good tactical game with fairly decent graphics. What a person has to understand is that it felt 'clunky' because it was simulating the boardgame fairly closely. In terms of polish, though, Space Hulk 1 was a better game (1993.)
looks like spacemarines :D

@OblivionDarkelf because some of their victim's minds are altered to actually LIKE the genestealer race, and protect them with their lives.
