Mordheim: City of the Damned is the first video game adaptation of Games Workshop's cult classic tabletop game Mordheim. Set in the Warhammer World's decimated Empire city, Mordheim: City of the Damned is a turn-based tactical game where you lead warbands into bloody and lethal skirmishes. The game blends RPG elements, fast-paced tactical combat and intricate unit customization in a time wrought by chaos and rivalry where only the strongest survive.
After a twin tailed comet crashed on Mordheim, the City of Damned turned into a terrifying battlefield where rival warbands fight fiercely for the control of key neighborhoods, looking for glory and fortune by acquiring the very valuable Wyrdstone fragments.
Choose from iconic Mordheim warbands - Sisters of Sigmar, the Cult of the Possessed, Skaven, Mercenaries from the Empire - and lead your troops to battle. Recruit new units, equip them with enhanced gear. Evolve and customize your warband with the experience gained from each successful mission, transforming them into a terrifying force on the battlefield.
Devise the best strategy to annihilate your rivals. If you fail, some of your units might lose a limb... or worse. Keep in mind that in Mordheim: City of the Damned, a dead unit is lost forever! Consider the environment when formulating your battle strategy, exploiting the unique buildings, ruins or the layout of the streets. Deploy your troops carefully and anticipate the actions of your adversaries to set up ambushes! Organize ingenious battle plans where the talents of your units will be as important as your own luck during key moments of combat.
Loot items and weapons hidden in the ruins, or steal those of fallen opponents. Survive the dangers that abound in the City of the Damned and collect as many Wyrdstones as you can, but remain ever vigilant. Mordheim is one of the most treacherous places in the Warhammer World!
In these epic battles where fame and glory await, your strategy will definitely be your best ally! Visit the four corners of the City of the Damned to complete multiple missions in the solo campaign, or challenge other players in enthralling multiplayer modes.

I never do this but after a really hateful run: this game is purely bad.
It's not fun, It's not hard, It's just there to get you and you won't enjoy it.
Yes there are strategies, yes there are builds. But when you use a spell and get a OS on your main hero for no reason, then get stun on the 2nd hero, then lose all actions from the 3rd after one spell aswell.... well guess what, you just can't play anymore.
No strategies can prevent you from losing to random rolls.
Also, building characters costs way too much, there are no interesting new mechanics and its really long to do just about anything.
It's a cheap game
It 's bad on about everything else

- Best loading screen simulator available. And the perfect hybrid between XCOM and Vermintide. The AI always has the upper hand simply because the Overwatch doesnt work properly (even the developers admitted that). So imagine spending 20 minutes moving your troops into position, having the perfect strategy, and then the enemy just runs through your Overwatch like it was a stroll in the park.
- Oh yeah, there is no save option. If you level up a warrior and you lose that warrior because the goddess of Chance wants you to die even with 95% success rate, then you die. Simple as that. Couple that with amazing loading screens (5 minutes loading screen for a simple match is my record) and you got Mordheim.
- In one single match of Vermintide 20 minutes you can have x10 times as much action as Mordheim in one whole evening. But then again thats strategy.
Never read anything of Warhammer before, ever. But the lore is interesting.
Mechanics are interesting, lots of customization for your team. Although you might lose it all in the next match.
You can play as Skaven :)
Lots of micromanagement both in battle and before, for those that enjoy that
Have some coffee next to your PC, and maybe a book, loading takes for ever :D
Some crucial skills (e.g. Overwatch like in XCOM) dont work properly (developers havent fixed that yet although they are still trying after 1 year)
You can work for 3 days on your team, and lose it in 3 minutes. There is no save/load option.
Only 4 factions so far.
"Yar, Randomness be a cruel Mistress indeed."
