Warhammer 40,000: Apocalypse

About this board game

Warhammer 40,000: Apocalypse is a large-scale battle game for 2–6 players, with games lasting around 180 minutes. Released in 2007, it expands the conflict beyond a single detachment and places vast armies under your command.

Instead of directing only a small force, you can lead hundreds of warriors alongside squadron after squadron of vehicles. The greatest heroes of the age fight beside your troops, while huge war machines dominate the battlefield and bring super-heavy weapons to bear.

These weapons can destroy even the most heavily armoured tanks and tear through enemy ranks. Across the smoke-filled skies, aircraft make devastating bombing runs or land to unleash hordes of bloodthirsty fighters, adding another scale of warfare to the battle.

• Command hundreds of troops and multiple vehicle squadrons.
• Fight alongside the greatest heroes of the age.
• Deploy towering war machines with super-heavy weapons.
• Use aircraft for bombing runs or troop deployment.
• Call on orbiting spacecraft to deliver punishing barrages.

Orbiting spacecraft can pound the battlefield from above, firing barrages that drive the enemy into the ground. The result is a dramatic clash where armies, heroes, vehicles, aircraft, war machines, and orbital fire all contribute to the devastation.

The 2007 edition of Warhammer 40,000: Apocalypse requires the Warhammer 40,000 rule book. For players seeking battles on an enormous scale, it offers a setting for the largest and most destructive confrontations described in the Warhammer 40,000 universe.
