    Battle March will entertain fans of Mark of Chaos for sure due to the increased difficulty and also many other gameplay improvements. Since many shortcomings of the original remain as well, however, only those fans alone will truly enjoy Battle March. [Issue#14]

    Players who missed the original game will certainly find a solid, enjoyable, but ultimately forgettable RTS experience in Warhammer: Mark of Chaos Battle March.

    My advice: If you want to play multiplayer, buy this game with friends; otherwise, you'll just get bored waiting around in a cold, lonely, empty server -- not exactly the best front in which to wage war.

    Battle March adds some new features here and there, but doesn’t really add much incentive for players to jump back in, and the dated feel will probably prevent newcomers from taking the plunge.

    Ultimately, Battle March has added a new single player campaign, a little meat to the multiplayer, and two new factions to take control of.

    A tragically missed opportunity. There are hints of an excellent Total War-style real-time tactics game married to the undeniable crazy charm of the Warhammer Fantasy universe.

    While the controls aren't as big a deal on the PC, the spotty AI, poor pacing, and lack of depth doom both versions. [Nov 2008, p.118]

    A charming but deeply flawed attempt at an RTS with Warhammer flavor.

    PROS: * The game is charming, nice graphics for it's day * Well    A charming but deeply flawed attempt at an RTS with Warhammer flavor.

    PROS:
    * The game is charming, nice graphics for it's day
    * Well done unit command and control
    * Nice range indicators
    * Decent movement and formation commands
    * Interesting environments that utilize LOS and height variations

    CONS:
    * Units have perma-death, and die very quickly.
    * Unit deaths are hard to see in the UI
    * You can't save during a mission, you can only save between missions.

    RESULT:

    If you don't play a scenario perfectly the first time, your units get decimated and the only way to remedy this is to start the mission over, which because of very long load times (for an old game that only takes 7G drive space), means unless you start playing like an experienced expert, game play is essentially watching long boring load screens until you become an expert.

    There are options to buy more troops, but even if you ace all rewards in a mission, you don't get enough gold to fully replace your losses, replacement troops are rookies and in limited supply even if you have gold.    … Expand
