Warhammer fans: stick to painting the miniatures instead of playing this poorly ported console shooter.
But the Warhammer 40K universe is teeming with creatures, and yet in each mission you'll face the same two or three enemy types from start to finish.

Explanation: Though it would be obvious to double a Warhammer 40,000 character's WS to get his Warzone CC, it is inappropriate, since average in Warhammer 40K is 3, and average in Warzone seems to be 12.
The average strength in Warhammer 40,000 is three and the average strength in Warzone is zero, so I just took it from their.
I know that the average movement in Warhammer 40,000 is four, and in Warzone it is three.

Dark Omen does follow the Warhammer board game's carefully balanced and fine-tuned rules of engagement carefully, but when you're forced to order up to 15 regiments individually and in real time, you'll find that strategy takes a back seat as you whirl about with your mouse in sheer desperation.
Dark Omen battles are quick and brutal as both sides are inevitably forced to clash under the threat of potentially devastating artillery fire.

One could spend hours, hours and hours painting the miniatures in the most minute details; days were spent pouring over the source books and army books to create the most balanced, kick-ass army of soldiers in the galaxy; hundreds of pounds were spent to then realise that army in lead figures.
There have been thousands upon thousands of pages written about it, fantastic pieces of artwork drawn, and it was a universe in which I immersed myself for 6 or 7 years, a universe which has a background mythology equal to just about any other franchise out there.
