Warhammer WarCry: Battle for Atluma Out This October |
Ó
Warhammer is a series that I'm only familiar with based on their dice-chucking table top strategy games. I've tried playing a few rounds of it before and after the first 5 minutes, I ended up throwing what seems to be a whole handful of dice on the table. And the number-crunching required... oh dear lordy... there's a reason why I sucked at math.
Hopefully the PSP version of the series, Warhammer WarCry: Battle for Atluma, the PSP's first card-based battle game, will take away all the number crunching from your hands and just allow you to focus on the strategy, the fun, and the battles.
The game is based on the Warhammer card game. Set in the Warhammer World, players are given the choice of leading the Grand Alliance or the Hordes of Darkness to complete domination. With 450 cards available for the players to collect, 90 different units, and the ability to connect wirelessly to a friend and challenge him for his cards, the game sounds very promising.
The game is set to ship on October 17, so to all Warhammer fans out there, ready your wallets. By the way, it's WarHAMMER, not WarCRAFT (just kidding).

1st comment!!!!!!!!
I couldn't care less about the game, but that character in the picture looks awesome!
slow news days bring out *****ty ***** news like this. i mean, who *****ing cares?
So you mean this game can very well play by mathematicians only? That's awful! I am terrible in math too. http://www.ayboston.com
Metal Gear Acid and MGA2-both great games for those who are into stratagy. Cant wait to play this one too!!
Not sure it will be a card game like metal gear acids ones. I hope i'll be more than magic the gathering's card games, or anything like this. I'll hope for a real turn based game, but it's just a dream ... :(
warhammer is a game that i still do not understand, i also have played about 5 turns of the game. i guess im not sad enough to play bored games :) why cant they release command and conquer for the psp.
comman and conquer :D lol. Would be nice if we had a stratagy game for the psp.
You guys complaining about math apparently suck at reading, too. The article says that it IS a collectible card-based game. By nature those ARE turn-based. And there IS strategy involved. Beyond that, the entire point of making it a video game version is so that the PSP can do the number crunching for you. As long as you are competent enough to compare values (i.e.: this number is bigger than that one), you should be good to go to play this game. For madonion, are you serious? There are strategy games for the PSP. Field Commander and both Metal Gear Acid games are three titles I can think of off the top of my head that are already out.
I have a tendancy to avoid games that require cards or marbles. I did not buy a PSP to play Magic the Gathering or any other game that uses cards. We are not in the 90's anymore. $ony is just laughing at us all right now.
I'd like to see something like Diablo II on the PSP. I agree about that statue character in the article, it's pretty wicked looking. I want to go out and buy a few of those chars just to have around. Not a purist for warhammer (never played) but they'd be a cool collectors item.
There are the Metal Gear acids and Yu-Gi-Oh Tagforce (released today). QJ admins talking out their rears again...
As happy as seeing this makes me, it's depressing that they made it a CCG instead of a direct copy of the table top game. I loathe CCG video games, and I feel that this incarnation of Warhammer is going to suffer for it. I'll still get it just to see if it translates well, but I don't hold much hope for it.
Diablo II would be a great port- Easy to do and would make tons of $$$. It will probably never happen because BLIZZARD would have to work with the devil himself to port it. They have done it in the past with Diablo and Warcraft for the ps1 then all cooperation seemed to stop. Wo is me.
i just hope its like the ps2 warhammer 40,000 firewarrior and this game is awsome even the board one
i'm sorry if all of you guys have the attention span of goldfish but warhammer and WH40k are 2 amazing games that take a LOT of thinking and some small minded folk can't handle that. i will be buying this game the second it hits the shelf but i can't say its gonna be that good because they have a tendency to be bashed by you guys :P oh well, i recomend checking it out :D warhammer rocks my world
