Learning Battlefleet Gothic: Armada 2, The Adeptus Astartes

The Adeptus Astartes, or better known as the Space Marines, are the Emperor's most fearsome warriors, dealing with any unrest that they are charged with resolving, be it alien, heretic, or worse.
They are not really meant to take their battles to the void of space, so in this video we are going to see how they can make up for that lack of skill, by destroying their opponents from the inside out instead.

Christ these guides are terrific! it's a shame this game didn't blow up.

[@priestskorge]

All they need to do is flesh out the campaign add diplomancy and a grand campaign and the game would be perfect and a few more game modes for multiplayer and it would be fine. Cause the battle are super fun I love them. I just got this game 2 days ago and having a blast. Gonna start my campaign tonight well a serious one prob with the necrons. I love them although they seem kinda op when I face them lol. So hard to bring them down with the regen and armor. But man are they fun I love them. Wish you could play orks and eldar in the campaign. That all they need is a grand campaign, co op, head to head like total war and I think this game would find the mainstream. Cause everyone loved it just gets boring cause need more content. But I'm sure I will have hours and hours of fun still. Just wish multiplayer was still active cant find a game at all. Well not a 2v2

@@priestskorge Yes I love the theme and the ships, just the campaign is so lacking.

I hope the game gets more popular in the future!

[@maxmustermann-zx9yq]

@@priestskorge the campaigns were also very different in quality: imperium was interesting in choices, story and you could go alot of different fleets due to having 3 different factions rolled into one, it had alot of backtracking and defending against invasion which made grindy and turned it into something like a 100hrs necrons made it easier to move bewteen sectors and meant less defensive fleets aka higher momentum, story was boring though tyranids was fun, let you win in couple of hours with their infest mechanic, together with their devour-sector-then-abandon-it, meant it was the opposit of grindy, btw shooting tyranids in a spore cloud are ridiculously broken chaos is a mixed back, lots of abilites although nothing too crazy or super fun, having to kite is nowher near as fun as the imperiums balls to the wall play style, story is ok

[@mikee9464]

Thank you for these videos! This is the first one I've watched. Hopefully you have one for each faction. If not, I'd love to see it!

[@Dracobyte]

He has one for each faction.

Thanx for the BFG2 guides. Well appreesh. Its cheap on gog at the minute and for fifteen quid you get a nice meaty game to hibernate with. Cheers again mate.

Total War 40k Gothic Armada, Gladius and Dawn Of War are the best 40k games. Necromunda is cool as well.

[@Oathmaster]

Sadly Necromunda had a really rough start on it's release, and I wanted to to enjoy that game as it is really unique to other games I've played. I can only hope that game is doing well now. But I really am eager to see what Tindalos are working on for their next game, as alas, the development and patching for Armada 2 are nonexistent now. :(

[@twfanboy4800]

The spear of the Emperor thrusts deep into the rear of the Archenemy, huh?

[@redasylum]

Really don't like SM in single Player

[@martinsleight321]

I find them so useful to just overwhelm Chaos ships.

[@morpheusbutasasquirtle4431]

Ive been using them as support with hit and run flanks on flagships with boarders and once thats used up, i turn them on escorts. During that i mainly use ramming Imperials and long range Mechanicus to cause havoc.

[@maxmustermann-zx9yq]

if you learn AI beahviour you can launch waves of melate torpedos from long range that will disable call to arms for 90s followed by a wave of boarding torpedos emptying the enemy armada, especially with that sector that increases crit chance from 65 to 85 once the get in range it's only a matter to lightning strike a bit, the constant recruing the enemy does is easily usuable to crit the enemy into weaponless engineless hulks
