Turn-based strategy video game set in Warhammer 40,000, featuring Loyalist and Traitor forces in a recreation of an iconic Horus Heresy battle.
The Horus Heresy: Battle of Tallarn is a turn-based strategy game developed by Slitherine and set within the dark future science fiction universe of Warhammer 40,000. Players take command of either Loyalist or Traitor forces from the iconic Iron Warriors and Imperial Fists Space Marine Legions and recreate one of the most brutal battles of the galaxy-spanning civil war known as the Horus Heresy.
Battle of Tallarn focuses on the poisoned environment of the Dead World of Tallarn, rendered inhospitable by a deadly virus bomb attack. Players must maneuver their troops across the toxic wastes and through rad-zones while surviving ambushes, pyrophoric chemical clouds, and deleterious environmental effects. Victory goes to the commander who can overcome the hellish landscape itself to destroy their opponent's forces.
The Horus Heresy setting and tabletop battle game by Games Workshop serves as inspiration for the gameplay and visuals. Slitherine brings the epic scale of the conflict to life across 14 scenarios along with recreations of legendary warriors and war engines. Players can test their tactical skill solo against the AI or go head-to-head in multiplayer.
With challenging turn-based combat requiring mastery of terrain and unit abilities, Battle of Tallarn delivers an authentic translation of tabletop Warhammer 40k battles enhanced by detailed 3D visuals and graphics.
