Collectible card game with Warhammer 40,000 universe background. Interesting game mechanics (for a card game) that balance well tactical decisions and strategic elements. The game represents battle between two armies, including Space Marines, Chaos, Eldar, Orks etc. for the conquest of an objective planet divided in 5 different strategic sectors. A card represents: army units, actions to play during battle, and a die roll, all included in a single card depending on when and where it is played. Every expansion has a new planet to conquer with 5 new sectors that change completely the approach with which a player can try to win, so players are encouraged to change deck and test different strategies to adapt in the new terrain of battle.
