Similarities

The original English version is also one of many entry-level play, the play in the Warhammer 40,000 universe. In the German translation, however, you created a new child-friendly background. Perhaps this was done to defuse the pretty brutal Warhammer 40,000 Background. Thus, in the German version, not deadly weapons all the GSG.

The Galaxy SafeGuard troops (Crack Squad ): GSG- 19, GSG- GSG- Tiger and Musketeers are known from Warhammer 40,000 Space Marines in the original version. In the game following 3 Space Marine Chapters are represented:

  • GSG- 19 of the Ultramarines
  • GSG- musketeers of the Imperial Fists
  • GSG- Tigers of the Blood Angels

Also on the side of the opponent (Alien player) there were some adjustments in the German version.

  • The androids are 40,000 Chaos Androids in Warhammer. Erroneously, they are often confused with Necrons.
  • The Space Orks have retained their names, while the grid -form hot in the Warhammer 40,000 universe Grotze (formerly Gretchin ).
  • The clones are the Genräuber symbiont of the Tyranid race.
  • The Chaos fighters are in the original Chaos Warriors Chaos Space Marines, Traitor Space Marines who fought on the side of Chaos.
  • The Dreadnought is a Chaos Dreadnought or a Chaos Dreadnought.
