Game Description

The world of Warhammer just got bigger. Warhammer 40,000: Squad Command marks the first time the epic war saga is playable on the DS, and the franchise celebrates its arrival with an immersive single-player campaign spanning 13 missions. Use turn-based strategy to command a squad of Space Marines as you go up against a ruthless enemy, the Chaos Space Marines. Take on the opponent on fully destructible, real-time, 3D battlefields. Amass over 20 long- and short-range Warhammer weapons, including the Plasma Gun, Chainsword, and more. An extensive multiplayer offers nine additional missions that let you play on either side of the good/evil battle.
