The Horus Heresy: Legions
This here, it is their cash milking machine, mind you as long as the gros is getting to GW i rly dont mind.
Just wish there was something you could invest money in without being a whale. a sub that didnt suck for instance , a better matchmaking system ? in fact id prolly buy single player cmpaigns if those gave me good cards instead of the RNG.
The gem system is 5:1 a card being drawn as double only gives me 1 5th of its cost in the gem shop.
Trouble is new factions cost gold primarily to get and at first only 200 coin crates are available not the more reasonable ones.

The game throws you into some pretty cool fights when you first start the game.
They have cool enemies and you are getting rewards and you think maybe there is a cool story and hope this continues to develop and allow you to adjust your deck as you go through an amazing campaign story mode.
But no…It just ends abruptly out of nowhere and the game is pretty much a grindfest or pay wall from that point onwards. You try to play a friendly match, you get in a game with ai or players. Players have better decks than you because you are a noob who hasn’t paid any money to buy all the cards and build better decks or grind for hundreds of hours, so you get pummelled because the matchmaker is trash like most card games.

Warhammer: Chaos And Conquest
edit: 12/25/2019
After 30+ days for me & hundreds of hours later this has shown itself to be entirely focused on the p2w players. All f2p mechanics are only in game to convince players to spend money somewhere down the road.
On Festus 4, the Steam server, many p2w players are now crying that the richest player on the server is a cheater because he spends more money than them and they say they are sending tickets to the Dev’s because its “not fair or fun”. Boo Hoo!! LoL.
These are the p2w players acting like this, aw shucks. I shed a tear, really.

First game to fly in the face of the Skull 4 the Skull throne event, since this has been running on steam, every warhammer based game has given away free or heavily discounted content expanding their game, this game decided to add a bundle which granted was worth it on heavy discount but also an event to “honour” the skull god by making the win only possible by spending large volumes of cash.
It flies in the face of the whole Skulls for the Skull Throne idea, you can’t point this out to the developers tho, like on their discord, or they threaten to mute you in the beginning the game was really good and not too cash grabby and the devs gave loads away for free to help the community, then the whales started crying about boredom cause they had bought their way to the top in a few short months and the devs answered this problem 1st by giving them pay events only they could win which increased in time and then merging servers to feed F2P players to the P2W folks for scores.

Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Champions
Genre - Warhammer Fantasy CCG
I have played quiet a few card games in my advanced years both digitally and in the real world. I am also a huge fan of the Warhammer universe, but more so the old world. I mean what the heck is an Orruk or a Grot?
I bought some packs of the physical game first and played a bit on my android phone. I found it quite difficult to work out the game mechanics and the user interface was a bit busy for a small screen. So I only played a few quick games.
Once I saw it was on Steam I thought I’d give it another go, especially as it allows you to link your android account and has sought after achievements you either love or hate.

If you like Magic the gathering, there are a bunch of Magic TCGs on here, go play any one of them.
If you’re looking for something new and different… Go play Hex. Hex has really interesting PvE options, and a lot of different features that kept me interested for quite a while.
If you’re looking for something new that isn’t magic, and Hex isn’t doing it for you either, I’d recommend one of the Yu-gi-oh games, or hearthstone, or god, anything other than this.
It’s interesting at first, utilizing a mechanic involving the cards having values at each corner and being rotated each turn. If you enjoy card games, you will most likely enjoy this as much as any other.

Warhammer Combat Cards
Love the game but….
1 PC is just getting introduced to this game. Mobile has been going for awhile. SO PC people are WAY behind the eight ball.
2 Its all about time. Every 3-8 hours you need to log into the game to open loot boxes ( cards gold ) , get your quests,open timed prize boxes ( more cards ) and do some battles. And if there is an event do the event battles every 8 hours.
3 Grinding levels to be able to have more points to make your decks stronger and /or more cards in your deck.
– Real player with 580.1 hrs in game
TL;DR:
-
game full of wonderful mobile game features! (timed loot boxes after a win, clunky UI, noticeable P2W (as in you get more cards, you can level those cards so they’re stronger))
-
deck size/total points locked behind very high rank (you’ll need to play for ~6 months)
-
combat is fun enough to overshadow all of the above
-
suffer through the first day or two - reach Rank 10 to unlock ranked - enjoy one of the best card battlers, IMO
Found the game from Warhammer promotion, decided to give it a try.
