Sorry for the late reply, I'm not on here everyday.
I've not played the tabletop version in a very long time but know that if you're into the necrons and love chaos, before you spend like $170 on the game that it might give you an "ick" playing as an ultramarine. I was only able to play it twice despite it being decent and set in a universe I adore because, something just felt wrong and I figured out why...
I could've maybe dealt with playing as a Fallen Angel :(
Im all about the Horus Heresy. You can imagine my second edition army that lives in the UK, cocktail sticks make for great spikes. Showing my age there.
It was fun putting down *Kharn at times and summoning demons, but Abaddon and 4 terminators was my go to. One with an ancient reaper weapon.
Also the film Event Horizon is 100% Warhammer 40k canon in my opinion.
The commentary of the board game is great and I'm with you.
It's cool that you and your partner are playing, I can't get my partner interested and I have been keen to rebuild my army and play again.
On the computer game: it's hack and slash and is very fun. It's well rated by others too and yeah smashing Tyranids is awesome. I do wish it had an RPG element though as I wanna go through the rift.
Enjoy your tabletop fun too though!
