The fictional world created by Warhammer 40K is a world full of war. The story of the fight of mankind in defending its empire, scattered throughout the galaxy, from the threat of Alien and Daemon is usually represented by a superhuman force called Space Marine or Astartes. However, the Battlefleet Gothic Fleet sees this endless great war in a new vantage point, ie, through a space war that is hardly ever touched upon by its role. In the Battlefleet Gothic Fleet, all of that is eased through automation like video games. Fortunately, this game can still maintain a strong element of tactics in the boardgame. As you probably know, most Warhammer 40K games always involve tactical elements in combat. The difference is, this game does not ask you to equip your fleet by buying and assembling and coloring all the minis!
The story that was sung on the Battlefleet Gothic Armada is a new story, unlike the Dawn of War that always tells the same legion of Space Marine. In this story, you will control the authority of Admiral Spire, the Imperial Navy's warlord in defending the Gothic sector of the Empire. The Gothic sector suddenly became the new concentration of war from Chaos. Thanks to the arrival of Chaos there, the stability of the Gothic sector becomes a mess, an effect that always comes along with the Chaos forces. All the planetary systems that were there began to show resistance to the authority of the Empire. As the Admiral of the Imperial Navy, it is your duty to assist Commisar's task to "straighten out" the thinking of the people who deny his faith in the Emperor, by mass execution. The narration that was sung in this interesting game is always delivered with voice over voice. Whether you are listening to a dialog box or a cutscene, represented by a static image with some moving parts, such as facial expression. The sound that was delivered there was also very precise
Battlefleet Gothic Armada is a Real Time Strategy (RTS) game that involves several combat units in the form of massive combat ships. Unlike other RTSs that provide access to create units and gather resources, limited units when playing means you have to use tactics in playing them. Because when the unit is destroyed, then your combat power will be reduced dramatically, because there is no way to enter a new unit in the battle. Before the war begins, you will "buy" access to use combat units. In each war, you will be confronted with a Control Point with a certain amount. Each unit, represented by a combat ship, has a different Control Point pricing. The larger the size of the unit, which of course is also stronger, the price will also be more expensive. Now it is up to you to decide whether to fight with a few large units, many small units, or combine them to cover each other's flaws.
After purchasing the unit into the battlefield, then you will be asked to put the unit into the battlefield. The preparation phase is part of the tactics, and will greatly affect the course of the battle. Therefore, all the movement of units there will be represented by the speed of the unit. The bigger the slower it goes. If you do not put the unit in a favorable position, it will be late in responding to the attack at a strategic point. When the war begins, you also can not see your enemy. The enemy's position will only be represented by a red ball. So you do not know what kind of unit the enemy is using! In addition, unknown enemies can not be targeted by guns on your combat ships. Therefore, you must approach it so that the radar can detect the shape, or release the Probe toward the unit so that its shape can be identified. Just from here it has been seen how thick elements of tactics in every battle.
All units in the Battlefleet Gothic Fleet have a button to adjust the nature of the attack. If you do not want a headache set it, then this game also provides a button to automatically set its properties. However, you will be more able to issue the ability of your ship if it is set manually, according to its advantages and disadvantages. The nature of the attack we mean here is to determine which weapons are leading to where to attack. Through the ship upgrade feature that we will discuss later, all units in this game can be arranged which weapon will be dominant power. If you strengthen Lance's weapon that leads to the front, then you should prioritize the forward attack. Vice versa with a weapon that leads to the side.
The priority of such attacks is also given in more detail for the use of side-edge weapons or Broadside. Its nature can be arranged more deeply by determining whether the weapon from the right or left side of the shot takes precedence, or both gets priority for closer to the enemy. Every time you finish the battle, either win or lose, you will get Renown Point. Points are used just like money in this game. The utmost usefulness is seen when you upgrade units in the main headquarters called Port Maw. Through the use of these points, you can strengthen the unit and classify it according to the style of the game.
