Good game but severely hampered
This game would be so much better if I could play it whenever I wanted. This game requires a constant internet connection to play, which keeps me from playing on long trips or flights, where an internet connection is not the best. I wish I could just pay for the whole game download it one time. It is especially annoying since I know that is how this game is sold on other platforms like PlayStation.
As for the game itself, I really enjoy the combination of card play and XCOM like game play. The progression and 40k story is enjoyable as you unlock new classes and characters. I would give it 5 stars if not for what I said above.

Custom Mode DLC?
There should be a DLC in which you can create your own scenarios in a certain selection of maps. We should be able to use all factions featured in the campaign. I know gamers absolutely love that stuff and spend for it. You guys would make bank! Please consider!
Go play Mechanicus
Okay, so I had just finished playing Mechanicus, and this caught my eye as a good turn based strategy game to play next.
It’s not.
The game’s death animation is very extravagant and unnecessary, and the character models aren’t amazing. I HATE the ‘choose your direction’ when you move thing. It doesn’t add any strategy elements, it’s just tedious.
The characters move too slow, and some missions will make you go to a certain area to win.
The story is horrible, the gameplay is okay.
Don’t spend money on this game, but if it’s free *like on mobile*, it’s okay. If you haven’t played Mechanicus however, it is more expensive but it is a Dawn of War quality game.
Okay game, not the best.
Thank you for listening to my Ted talk.

New to cell phone games
I’m enjoying the game. I took my time with it and wanted to learn the game before spending money on it but all the best deals expired before I knew what any of it could really do. Other then that it’s been a pleasant experience. Having 30 cards is somewhat difficult to manage because none of it seems to be organized in a way that you can pick what cards you will have when. Might be more fun later on when you have tons of items for every situation. I’m already operating with a handicap trying to play games in Georgia hate crime agenda because all of my technology is sabotaged and I don’t get to communicate with anyone.

Endlessly replayable
IMO a perfectly designed game. Combining the best of Warhammer, Magic the Gathering and chess with PVP, campaign and individual battles in Hunger Games-style arenas. The PVP and Hall of Sorrows modes are endlessly replayable - trying out different decks, squads and strategies. I’ve been playing for months and I’m still learning new things. Tough tradeoffs are everywhere: whether you’re focusing on damage, speed, amor, overwatch, stun, confusion, rage, blaze, indirect fire, or card removal, engaging and scrambling for the power ups or playing cat and mouse from range, concentrating fire on the enemy’s hero, or focusing on taking out his squad first - all are effective strategies. The best solution often depends on the situation, so be prepared to change your strategy on the fly since no battle plan survives contact with the enemy. Somehow they fit all of this complexity in a fast paced, easy to learn mobile game. I only paid $5.99 for one special squad member but I’ve defeated the highest ranked players in PVP - so the paywall isn’t a real barrier. It would be nice to have “Rematch?” button after a PVP game, so you could offer to battle again after an especially good match but that’s my only idea for improvement. If you like turn based strategy this is the game for you.

Response from developer
Hello! Thank you a lot for such a great feedback! We appreciate your support and suggestions. We will forward it to our development team to make the game better. Have fun!
Deep thoughts from fenris
First off it’s an amazing game with interesting mechanics in the spirit of war hammer. Just like any collectible card game (mtg) they make you pay for the cards you need to advance, late in the 4th stage. You can’t advance or complete in pvp without buying $50-$150 worth of cards n credits so consider that or just play thru till you hit the wall. Still fun. Deathwatch was better all tho all around.

PvP Matchmaking ignores rank
I used to love this game. Unfortunately when I try to play PvP with a rank in the 400s I am consistently matched against players with a single digit rank. Their cards are so much more powerful that strategy has little to do with the outcome.
I was upset when they released a new character that can only be gained through spending absurd amounts of money in their spending “tournaments.” I guess that turned a lot of people off because I now rarely get matched with opponents within a hundred points of my rank in PvP and now find myself paired against obvious bots which never used to be a thing.
Seems like the only humans still playing are the ones who have too much money invested in it to back away.

Keeps crashing
The game was good when I use go play it, I then deleted it make some space for my phone but decided to download it again, though now it seems to keep crashing every time I open it.
Constant crash will not load in after tutorial
I have 4 iPads and several iPhones and this is a 12 pro max. Game loads and updates. As soon as it gets to loading screen the app shuts off. I delete the app and re load and same issue. Loaded on my iPad and can play tutorial but as soon as campaign starts it crashes to desktop. Just shuts off. Will not load. All devices are updated to current patch and app even updated today but noooooo it will not load!

Would be a great MOBA
I love all of the warhammer games but I wish there was one with free blades, space marines, and all the others in it. I think it would be awsome if you made a warhammer 40,000 MOBA style game with free blades, space marines and all the others
Great tactical mission game
I’ve enjoyed this game immensely. The tactical game play is challenging and engrossing. The story is interesting and very WH 40k. The missions do become fairly long as you progress, but your progress is automatically saved. The length of the missions made me feel satisfied when I completed them. All in all, if you’e WH 40k fan looking for a Space Marine fix, I recommend this game.

My favorite Warhammer mobile game!
Honestly, this is the one game I have been playing the longest on my Iphone. I love this game, the mechanics of the game with the deck of cards and the play space works well. I have never spent a penny on this game and have an amazing deck so don’t listen to those who say you have to spend money in the game, you don’t. You just have to be dedicated and log in often and play. Watch the videos everyday for free coins and replay your missions for more parts. Sell back cards you don’t need and forge for new ones. Once you familiarize yourself fully with how this game works you will fall in love with it.

Something is wrong
The game was working well and pretty fun to play, however after the last update every time I open the app it gives me an error that says I am not using the most up to date version. It then sends me to the App Store to download the newest version (which I have) and the App Store only gives me the option to open the app, which then gives me the error…. Etc etc etc.

Game won’t load/connect and why can’t we heal!
the game will not connect to the severs I keep uninstalling and reinstalling the game seriously developers is this payback for me complaining that I can’t heal? Because it’s not far that we can’t heal one bit flipping Xcom is unforgiving but it at least give as a way to heal in a battle because you saying “try a new tactic” is crap if you can’t heal especially with never ending enemy units spawning

They fixed the update and my progress is back.
I wish they would’ve put out a press release saying they were working on it. But they fixed it, so we’re all good now.
Forced update deleted all my data (v1.4.21)
I’d been enjoying this game for at least a year (likely much longer), claiming all free-to-play achievements, getting a decent PvP ranking, having acquired several upgraded Legendary-ranking weapons, and maxing out the main character and a couple of others. The forced update to v1.4.21 deleted all my game data, even in the Game Center. EVERYTHING. Over a year of in-game progress lost. I regret ever playing this.

Meh
I love Warhammer and I love turn based strategy games. However the execution of the Warhammer rules into this mobile game was done poorly in a confusing and convoluted manner.
The movement and facing is frustrating and unintuitive. You never really know if you will be able to target the enemy, even if you are in range. The enemy gets to shoot at you no matter where they are, but you have to aim like a castle piece in a chess game (only in straight rows).
The turns are bizarre and follow some sort of odd initiative formula that is ill-conceived and inadequately explained. You have cards with weapons on them. The option to move your guys is an actual card and its also a choice on the weapon cards. Whether there is a difference on which one you choose is beyond me.
You have the option to equip a weapon during your turn, however you can fire your weapons without equipping them. What actually equipping them does is beyond my comprehension. Sometimes a weapon has ammo, sometimes it seems to have unlimited ammo.
The game says you can skip half of your turn for a bonus. The bonus is you get to “go first.” How skipping your turn allows you to go first makes no sense to me.
The whole game is a perplexing, befuddled mess and it plainly struggles to explain itself to you in the tutorial. Anyone who plays this game or even spends money on it is either smarter than me and figured it out or just really really loves The Warhammer universe.
I deleted it.

This game is awesome
It just gets a little too hard on certain levels with no explanation on how to even come close. Plus if it is gonna get this hard, then we should be able to level up our players. But still great game & nice back story
Good Depth...balance a little off
Like the mix of cards and turn based strategy on this game...graphics are sharp on my iPhone 6 and have had no problems with it loading or playing.
Downside is that some of the matches are horribly matched for army point values, especially in the later stages where there are endless waves of reinforcements every other turn. My three marines have taken out five times there value in enemies and they keep piling on...like a pile of ants trashing a scorpion.

IOS version does not have healing cards
In the years I have been playing this game i have never not heard of anyone having healing cards (healing cry, etc) in the IOS version. This makes the final missions in the necron chapters basically impossible to complete. I don’t know why the IOS version has this problem; other versions have healing cards.
