Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus is a Turn Based Strategy game made by Bulwark Studios. Most importantly, in this age of Games Workshop handing out their IP to anyone that bites, it is one of the few Warhammer games made recently that keeps both TBS and Warhammer lore fans happy at the same time.

Sorry for the late reply, but yeah, it's vaguely similar minus the first person parts. The dungeon crawling itself is isometric, but the dialogue, upgrade menu and combat is all quite similar.

Neat, I've been looking for something similar ever since I played Incubation. Now, if only I could find the time for this...

Really great game its somewhat like xcom meets a chose your own adventure game but less frustrating.
The sound design and presentation are top notch as well as decision to have the characters not speak English or "terran" but blurt digital sounds is great and keeping with the lore.
Easily the best 40k game in recent years.

Got this about a month ago. Finished it three times, superb game. Sided with Videx for most of the quests, hope it gets a sequel or expansions.
