Battlefleet Gothic: Armada (releasing April 21, 2016) takes the idea of tall ship combat and places it the Warhammer 40k universe. Based on Games Workshop's tabletop game, you can take command of the Imperium, Chaos, Eldar and Ork fleets in real time space battles.

This beta version of the game includes the prologue of the campaign as well as solo skirmish and multiplayer. To avoid spoilers, I've only demonstrated solo skirmish in this video.

The game features deep ship customization, detailed maneuvering options for your ships as well as a plethora of upgrades, skills and faction alignments. Only three fleets are available as yet, but each places extremely differently. It's fun, flashy but can be daunting to newcomers to the RTS genre, or those that are intimidated by multitasking. Fortunately, Tindalos Interactive has taken that into consideration in the gameplay systems.

Let's dive in and take a look!
