Warhammer 40 000 universe has millions of fans around the world. Almost every educated person in the world knows who the Eldar are and why you should not listen to strange voices from clots of pink fog. Why does this universe have so many fans? Let’s try to think about it.
Reason 1. War non-stop
In fact, the world of warhammer 40,000 is a world where war never stops. Bloody battles, tough and colorful battles are the hallmark of this universe. Forget about laser pistols and crowds of clumsy minions. The war here is very bright, brutal and memorable. Only here you will see chain swords, rumbling tanks and top technologies aimed at destroying an opponent.
Reason 2. Gloom and brutality
If we are talking about the universe of people, then these are necessarily fanatics controlled by the bloodthirsty inquisition. If we are talking about orcs, then these are grotesque green monsters with huge fangs that breed like plants. If we are talking about elves, then these are mysterious and elusive warriors who are able to summon a huge fiery deity directly on the battlefield.
Reason 3. Traditions
Despite everything here we have the classic race. These are people, orcs, elves (eldar), necrons and representatives of darkness (chaos). Fans of classic fantasy will clearly feel at ease.
Reason 4. Chaos
Chaos is a really scary race. Everyone who read books about the betrayal of Horus shuddered from an involuntary chill on his skin. Scary is frightening surrealism and not zombies or aliens. So, the mysterious and blurry visions of Chaos are very cool and scary.
Reason 5. Dawn of War
This is truly the best real-time strategy ever. Unlike a huge number of clones of the Age of Empires, Warhammer 40 000: Dawn of War is an original, smart and entertaining strategic game. Many fans of the Warhammer universe first learned about the Space Marine and the Eldar from these beautiful games.
