Description

Faithful to the Warhammer® license, Warhammer®: Mark of Chaos™ puts the focus squarely on the battlefield with a real-time combat system that gives the player unprecedented customization and control of his army.

Four fully playable powerful armies -- Empire, Chaos, Skaven and High Elves -- as well as additional controllable races (Orcs, Dwarfs, Vampires, and Goblins), clash amidst breathtaking scenery in an epic battle for land and power.

Features

  • MASTER THE ART OF WAR: Warhammer: Mark of Chaos is about WAR,
    focusing on the armies and battles while de-emphasizing the tedious aspects of
    base and resource management.
     
  • EPIC, VISCERAL BATTLES ON A MASSIVE SCALE: Epic sense of both
    scale and detail where big demons and huge beautifully rendered battalions
    clash with thousands of characters battling on screens in intricate detail.
     
  • USE ENVIRONMENTS TO YOUR ADVANTAGE: A variety of buildable
    features and randomized, destructible terrains such as forests, swamps, plains,
    and tundra change the shape of the battlefield and add a layer of strategy that
    provides infinite replayability.
     
  • COMMAND HEROES AND CHAMPIONS: As armies move from battle to battle
    in an epic war, Heroes and Champions learn new tactics, unlock new abilities,
    command larger units, even challenge other Champions in a duel to the death.
     
  • CUSTOMIZE YOUR ARMY: Warhammer: Mark of Chaos takes customization
    to a new level by allowing for body part swaps, weapon and armor
    enhancements, and more powerful controls to paint units and customize
    banners. Additionally, players can accent armies with mercenaries and “Dogs of
    War”, augmenting the look and play of their army for a unique game experience.
     
  • VARIETY OF PLAY MODES: Dynamic cooperative campaign mode and a full
    assortment of multiplayer modes for both casual and competitive gamers.
