Something a little different today cos why not :)

[@Wafelkowiec]

The battles play great and I enjoyed main campaign very much, but the Planetary Supremacy mode is too shallow for me and MP (including vs AI) just isn't my thing. They present us with all those factions, but there simply is no place for them to spread their wings. I'd love for them to polish Single Player experience more.

[@KaiReel23]

I wish they did a similar campaign to DoW:Soulstorm: Split the campaign map to regions, and put army icons on the map. Create choke points on campaign map, resources( as if in per turn ) that allow extra adding garrison units, bind elite units to regions, maybe even create a special objective map for the faction HQ( as if in, let space marines use drop pods with marines every other turn or give Tau an orbital cannon to deliver powerful shot every now and then. Maybe come up with a "assassination" mission or siege( like killing Tyranid synapse units or defending the gene seed for Angels ).

[@dragsakar6512]

At least there are custom campaigns now. Some of them are quiet good with a little bit story content.

[@gdmunn83]

I wish each race had a fleshed out campaign story mode like the space marines, unlocking new units each mission

[@Kraykz]

yeah that's my deal breaker for the DLCs

[@revolverDOOMGUY]

I love the fact that they keep adding factions. There are still many things they could add like Eldar, Adeptus Mechanicus and Imperial Guard. Since the Xenoes had a lot of love maybe it's time to come back to the imperium.

[@PrinceofGotham777]

CSM would be great too

[@patrik9328]

I hope Leagues of Votann will be playable too

[@ArkhBaegor]

Nice, might look at it now. Only missing the eldar, dark or otherwise and the Guard

[@goatscream8345]

We are also missing the chaos space marines (daemons of khorne don't count)

[@Tyranoxthejust]

Give me TSONS @@goatscream8345

[@Nhouyengah]

Also missing every other Space marine Chapter other than Blood angels, Wish they added more and more units or even mod support If they add mod support this game has the potential to be the real tabletop equivalent with all the units and things that could be done

[@TheRewasder97]

Now I'm interested in the game

[@lupuskonig9]

Just now? 😮

[@TheRewasder97]

@@lupuskonig9 I mean, the game looked good, but none of my main armies was in the game, Tau and Eldar, so mi interest was more like "when they release them" Gladious or Soulstorm were better for the 40k games for me

[@chillylagarto7728]

I don't have battlesector, but I'm a bit surprised there aren't any auxiliaries or more traditional vehicles like the Devilfish or Sky Ray. but like you said, those'll probably be added later.

[@scelonferdi]

Sky Ray could be cool. I guess it's represented by the Seeker Missile strike command ability though. The absence of Kroot is weird, but understandable. They are about to get a makeover in 40k proper, so waiting 'til that's done only makes sense. Shaper (3+ subtypes know! Trail Shaper, War Shaper and Flesh Shaper), Carnivores, Hounds and Krootox Rampagers (Shock cav for the T'au!!!) seem like they'd over plenty of new tactical roles for Battlesector. The Kroot almost enough for a faction of their own though (in 7th edition 40k they'd certainly be a mini-dex). In addition to the above there are at least Farstalker Kinbands (basically elite Carnivores with an offering of diverse special weapons, both Kroot and minor Xenos in origin), regular Krootoxes (with the big Kroot Rifle) and an as of yet unrevealed typ of cavalry or cavalry character. That's almost a full Battlesector Roster (particularly compared to Damons of Khorne).

[@gregoryshinn9805]

Thanks for the video

[@joshuagardner3789]

I was hoping you’ll cover this!

[@shasvrefirios1536]

Great vid, thanks!

[@phinix_fire]

looking quite good, would kind of hope for devilfish since its such an integral part of tau warfare in lore. Kroot/Vespid would obvouisly also be nice, but with devilfish it would already be the core covered

[@scelonferdi]

Controversial opinion: I'm not a big fan of the larger battlesuits (Broadside/Ghostkeel and upwards). The up to enforcer sized ones are pretty cool and have sort of tactical role of their own (enhanced infarntry basically, further helped by warriors not using special weapons on table top), but the larger ones are just walkers/vehicle like imho. Broadsides are kinda cool but I wish they were downscaled a bit (the old one was ugly though).

[@thehamman210]

Aw yeah Tau, was hoping they’d be next

[@danielli3288]

they should make a 4x game mode for this like total war

[@chrispink9716]

Never been a big fan of Battlesector. But god do the models look good.

[@joehendrson3815]

IS IT GETTING RELEASED FOR CONSOLE ALSO ON THE 14TH?

[@Dexter_Solid]

just picked this up and wish id read the criticisms across the steam reviews, the balance for this game makes it a waste of time and money unless youre playing the original 2 factions, save your money.

[@WeWillAlwaysHaveVALIS]

Lol u like the blu vag faces. My first time seeing battle sector, looks interesting, I will be adding this to my "maybe" list. Also the dude on the flying disk made me think of something. Do "floaters" still exist for Chaos forces in 40K? Those fun and bizarre Tzeenchian daemon disks. They were a pretty common mount for individual units/heroes in both 40K and Fantasy back in the day. Fun video dude, thanks for the upload.

[@MrPsilva95]

I thought about getting the game, but it's crazy that pretty much every faction is it's own DLC... I mean, I dont even know what does the base game have since even ORKS are paid add-on. I thought about getting it, but it feel like the content from the race packages should be in the game to begin with. At least 6 of them, as a costumer this looks very bad.

[@MrVlad12340]

"I like tau" - duuude, dont say that, people may be watching.

[@TheBeaconsAreLit98]

When is the Astra Militarum coming!

[@colonelstrat]

Love the Tau, they were my second choice on tabletop, but it begs to Question....where's my number 1 army....THE IMPERIAL GUARD! (P.s. they will always be the guard to me, not Astra militarum)

[@warrior728]

I hoping for eldars or dark eldars but tau is too nice

[@olympusgolemoflight7198]

A Dwarf and Tau fan, very nice! I just wish they would add the Kroot, Vespid, and other ally aliens.

[@AdamJones-tu9lx]

on the bright side, you guys are getting a ton of kroot on tabletop

Farsight Tau are great, I'm surprised you didn't use your Tau tattoo to stick it to the Tau haters out there, if you need more Tau mnis don't forget that my offer to use my minis is there all you have to do is get them collected.

[@Freeartisan]

I heard from Das tactics this game has a struggling ai but compensates with nice art compared to Gladius

[@avalen5515]

Where are the guard

[@dasmause5682]

"Breachers aren't too good" Huh?

[@IAmTheStig32]

People shouldn't be supporting this blatant greed. Base game is $40 and includes just two factions -- Blood Angels and Tyranids, then its $60 for the other five (or $15 for one you like) and still only Blood Angels get a single player campaign. 15 years ago, they would have released this game with four factions each with their own unique campaigns and then added two more with new story campaigns featuring them in an expansion pack for $20. Why should companies keep putting in the bare minimum fucking effort and then expect people to pay through the nose to complete their games? This would only be forgivable if the factions were free so they could entice people to buy the game. People have to start demanding more of game developers.

[@TheZomboy11]

this is cool and all but the game is pretty boring after couple of days with no new campaigns or game modes, i got this game after you showcased the khorne DLC but i kinda regreted it, should of just gotten base game alone and play the story, everything else is a waste, even multiplayer gets old quick.

[@1juanvasquez]

damn no kroot units.

[@Thomason1984]

Can't wait to see some Chaos Space Marines being added to this game along with the rest of the factions currently available in the 40k setting

[@jamespaguip5913]

I hope their is a Dawn of war remake

[@abmong]

They should just port the models to Dawn of War 2

[@Morphologicallyy]

how can you make a 40k game and not have chaos space marines as 1 of your main factions? Just typing this sounds ridiciulous

[@joeyflores9649]

Because it was originally themed around ball and the nids raping them

[@KaiReel23]

The original release was after "Devastation of Baal". Meaning it was about tyranids fighting blood angels( space marines ). If you add chaos space marines right after... it would be just that, more marines. I think they made correct choice by adding other factions( and they did add deamons of Khorne, so chaos is not excluded ) first.

[@KaiReel23]

And another point is: underrepresentation of other 40k factions in gaming. I think DoW Soulstorm had it all. And Gladius had alot of factions.

[@heistingcrusader_ad3223]

Idk. It's kinda refreshing that Chaos isn't a main threat or even a threat in this game

[@qwertpoo1]

It's actually kinda nice, I'm sure they'll get a dlc eventually
