Review
(OK)Facts
- In this game, the only factions are Blood Angels and Tyranids. It's kinda cool with this kind of narrow focus.
The Imperial Guard showed up in Crusade Mode.

Analysis
Intercessors
- Standard tactical squad
- The auto bolt rifle is a great upgrade, shoots double the number of bullets
Aggressors
- Short range tanky unit
- Really high melee damage, can be used effectively against huge Tyranid units
- Missile rack good against normal squads, deals low damage to every unit
Hellblaster
- Plasma guns is one of the only effective ways to kill the huge Tyranid enemies, when bolters can't penetrate their armor
Landspeeders
- High movement, OK armor, long range Heavy bolter
Predator
- It's a tank, great for drawing enemy fire
