This is the very first Warhammer 40,000 game that I remember seeing back in the day.
It didn't seem to get very good responses from critics when it originally released on 3DO as I recall, so I basically never looked at it again.

All 3 decades later and now I'm starting to get interested in the lore of the universe and I had to look this one up.
Seems like it got ported to Saturn and PSOne and actually got a really good reception in UK magazines like OSSM and MAXIMUM.

Looks like I have a new Saturn game I want to pick up next summer. ๐Ÿ˜…

@OutofPrintArchive Someone pointed out early in this pandemic that the thing about the Imperium of Man that's supposed to be such an exaggeration to push it safely into fiction is that a society would support a government which required thousands of deaths per day to sustain it.

Sadly, we have all witnessed by now that reality most of the time is a lot more cruel than fiction.
Not to mention dumber, a lot dumber...
