En bref. Voilà un bon point de plus pour les amateurs de ce 4X light prenant pour décor l’univers torturé de Warhammer 40 000. Jeu sympathique pour recréer de vastes batailles avec une dizaine de factions différentes, chacune bénéficiant ici d’une unité supplémentaire pour augmenter ou diversifier sa puissance de feu.
Parallèlement Gladius est passé en version 1.12, patch qui ajoute un peu de contenu en bonus, rééquilibre certaines unités et corrige quelques bugs (voir ce changelog).
Enfin, cerise sur le Space marine, sachez que à l’occasion du festival Warhammer Skulls, qui a débuté hier et durera a priori jusqu’au 1er juin prochain, vous pouvez obtenir gratuitement sur Steam Warhammer 40,000: Gladius. Un joli cadeau pour les fans de WH40K.

Getting into a good scrap is one thing, but the Bad Moons Ork Clans are notorious for growing their teef the fastest. This gives them the biggest wealth double-quick, granting the Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector Ork Boyz the snazziest guns. Led by a mightykunnin’ Warboss – most ferocious – the Ork leader is only rivaled in size by the Meganobz in their Big Mek armor or the super stompy Deff Dreads. The Orks can lay down terrifying amounts of firepower with their heavy-duty Deffgunns, while Flash Gitz love to show off their jumbo killy weapons, giving the enemy a solid krumpin’.Free to keep on Steam
