Les adeptes de robots de combats géants, particulièrement ceux de l’univers de Warhammer 40000, seront ravis de découvrir aujourd’hui quelques premières images pour cette future adaptation de Titan Legions, paru il y a longtemps, en 1994, chez Games Workshop, jeu qui était déjà une adaptation du Adeptus Titanicus paru lui en 1988.
Au programme, un système en tour par tour a priori facile à jouer, en plus du solo un mode escarmouche et un mode multi en ligne, et pour commencer, neuf variantes de titans, huit factions (quatre loyalistes, quatre du Chaos), trois types de champs de batailles, des décors destructibles ou encore différents types de conditions de victoire. Je dis pour commencer car il s’agit là de ce que proposera la version Early Access, version qui fera donc l’objet de futures mises à jour du contenu.
Pour plus d’informations sur Adeptus Titanicus: Dominus, dont la date de sortie finale n’est pas connue mais dont la bêta sera jouable à partir du 31 mai, voyez le site adeptustitanicus-dominus.com ainsi que cette page sur Steam.

Membraine Studios Announce ‘Adeptus Titanicus: Dominus’ Launch Date & Price
San Francisco, CA, May 25th 2018: Membraine Studios has announced that Adeptus Titanicus: Dominus, the 3D turn-based strategy PC game adaptation of Games Workshop’s classic Titan Legions tabletop game, is launching on STEAM Early Access on May 31st 2018 at just US$9.99. A discount of 30% off will be available during the launch week.
Adeptus Titanicus: Dominus, puts you in control of the greatest weapons available to the Imperium of Man, the mighty Titans of the Adeptus Titanicus! In Dominus, choose to control a force of Titans from the loyalist Legions of Astorum (Warp Runners), Gryphonicus (War Griffons), Crucius (Warmongers) or Osedax (The Cockatrices), or choose from the traitorous Chaos Legions of Mortis (Death Heads), Vulcanum (Dark Fire), Damnosus (Lords of Ruin) and Fureans (Tiger Eyes).
Utilising the tabletop Titan Legion rules system as its foundation, Dominus features an easy-to-play yet deep strategic and tactical experience via its streamlined command system, which sees you and your opponent giving turn-based activation orders to your Titans simultaneously, resulting in fast-paced battles. It successfully marries this strategic play with in-game cut scenes as the gargantuan Titans exchange volleys of cannon shots, blistering laser blasts and other epic, super-powered weapons of the far off future!
While luck will play a part as you trade blows with your foe on the futuristic battlefields of the 41st Millennium, your path to victory lies in your army list building and how you manoeuvre your units upon the battlefield. As a commander, you will have access to the most classic, iconic Titan units from the Warhammer 40,000 universe: Warhounds, Reavers and the gigantic Warlord, for both the Imperial and Chaos factions. Each of these Titans will have multiple variants available, featuring different weapon configurations, thereby enabling your Titans to fulfil the battlefield role your strategy demands.
Adeptus Titanicus: Dominus will feature a « living battlefield » that employs unit and battlefield animations to show players the Warhammer 40,000 universe they know and love.
In single-player, the Early Access launch version of Dominus features several scenarios (fixed forces) and a Skirmish mode (where you can choose your forces) against an AI opponent. Dominus offers an online multi-player mode with gamers looking for a human opponent. Upon full release, the game will offer an exciting single-player campaign.
