It's a board game by definition. Turn based is just the play style they picked. This is going to be a straight up Auto Cannon Boltgun blasting tyranid smashing real-time FPS.

I'm going to reach out on a limb on this one and presume they're adapting the source material, not the original tabletop game mechanics...

i dont mind AJ that much apart from his interviews, constantly interrupting the devs, going on a rant about what he would like to see in the game etc...

when i saw his interview with the Eternal Crusade dev Nathan i really wanted to punch Joe in the face

"By Definition"?

No.

It is adapted from a turn based board game, though, yes.


There exists both a video game that is essentially an exact replica of the board game in all aspects, as well as an "upgraded" version with more modernized mechanics (experience, skills, etc).

There was a classic Squad based FPS on the PS1, too.

Why are you complaining?
