Warhammer Epic 40,000: Final Liberation

This page is needs images. Help plz.

This is a /v/ related article, which we tolerate because it's relevant and/or popular on /tg/... or we just can't be bothered to delete it.

There is a reason they use the Epic cover image for the game as well.

An old video game that is revered by oldfags and neckbeards - some writefag even made a wiki for it - it is the most parallel game to tabletop Warhammer 40000 ever. It's basically Epic 40,000, to the point where you need your opponent in the same room, since it doesn't have network multiplayer of any kind, meaning you both have to use Hot Seat function.

The game is about liberating a planet called Volistad from Orks under the command of Commissar Holt, who is somehow directing the whole operations, even ordering whole Titan and Space Marine legion around.

Therefore, Holt is extremely manly.

Backstory

Warboss Skroll, a "shrewed and intellectual Ork" (don't ask me, I am quoting the manual) of Bad Moonz clan captured an Imperial Ship, and ate 5 Astropaths that were on it. As anyone dealing with Psykers, Skull found them unsettling. A few terrible hours on a Looted Toilet and bad Warp-induced trips later, Skroll came up with an idea of starting a WAAAGHHHH! to call his own. So he shot a naviagtion map and told his boyz to go there. And so they did, and after the Ork Rok hit the ground, Skroll alongside Evil Sunz, Goffs, and Speed Freaks have defeated the local (Valhallan-esque) PDF and captured all but few territories.

This is where the player and Commissar Holt come in. Oh, and as an excuse to add Titans into the game, Adeptus Mechanicus have their ancient Titan Legion buried on the planet, for some reason.

Second Edition Note

Since the game was created during the glory days of the Second Edition of Warhammer 40k, it means that the Orks still had the background of being a Brainboy slave race, were closer to being Space Germans they were established as in Rogue Trader, and still had respectable vehicle pool.

On the other hand, Imperial Guard regiments that are featured are Catachan Jungle Fighters, Mordian Iron Guard, and Tallarn Desert Raiders. A good break for endless stream of Cadians that is present in the tabletop.

Alas, the game was created long-after the Squats were removed, so Imperium sadly lose in terms of cool units.

Trivia

Fun Fact: this 40k Game is opposite when compared to Dawn of War II at least in some ways: this game is basically Command and Conquer: Tiberian Dawn mod while Command and Conquer 4: Tiberian Twilight is Dawn of War II mod
