James of Twinfinite writes "When someone utters the phrase war machine, the brain sparks into life showing images showing thousands of soldiers festooned with weapons marching as tanks roll between their ranks. For others, memories of flicking through comic books while gawping in wonder at the latest tales of Marvel’s armored warrior. The grey matter may even throw out images of the Mixed Martial Artist of the same name. For a small sect of people though, the name symbolizes a table top game with steam-powered stomping machines and techno-magical escapades. That last idea has been brought to the world of video games with Warmachine: Tactics".
Xeno of Morbid Play writes, "There are many table top war games to choose from. Some set in the real world, so many set in worlds of fantasy and even more in the far future but for me my table top war game of choice is Warmachine. For me it’s low price point of entry, rich setting, crazy units and powers just make it a wonderful game to play. So when White Moon Dreams announced they were making a Warmachine video game and as a Turn based Strategy game no less, I was suitably excited."
Privateer Press and indie game developer WhiteMoon Dreams, Inc have teamed up to re-imagine the award-winning tabletop game WARMACHINE as a turn-based strategy game for PC and Mac.
Warmachine Tactics is, the clue is in the name, a small 3D turn based tactics game. By small I am not being insulting, I mean rather than controlling large amounts of units or squads you control a modest amount of individual troops. Developed by privateer press interactive and having its roots humbly started by Kickstarter it is based in the world of Warmachine – a Table top steam punk game.
