Games Workshop just revealed a new game coming to the Warhammer 40k universe. It’s Aernautica Imperialis and it’s designed by the team who did Adeptus Titanicus. So that means instead of a squadron of massive planes on the table. You’re playing with scaled down versions of your chosen factions planes.
Â
Gameplay
Â
The planes are also on hex bases, which works with the play mats for the games. Which allow for more regimented movement of planes. The movement appears to be in a similar vein to Star Wars X-wing. With a grouping of preset movements each plane can make.
The game also appears to only need a few models to play. And the size of the mat looks like it will be usuable on a smaller space thaqn a traditional 40k game.
Â
Boxed set
Â
With the release of Aeronautica Imperialis there will be a boxed set containing Thunderbolts and Dakkajets. These models look really detailed despite their size. The detail on each one looks great. Plus, this isn’t just a one time box set, there will be ongoing support and expansions going forward.
In Conclusion
Â
Aeronautica Imperialis looks to be a great expansion to ways we can be in the Warhammer 40k universe. Offering a unique way to play and enjoy all the universe has to offer. Best of all it will be coming out sometime this Autumn!
As always, A big thanks to Games Workshop for the images provided for this article.
