# Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate (Classic)

> Re-release Originally released in 1998, Warhammer 40,000: Chaos Gate is a squad-based strategy game where you lead Ultramarines squads into battle against the forces of Chaos. The game is fondly remembered for its tactical depth and challenging yet fair gameplay.

About the Game Let your dark soul feel the light of the Emperor! AN INCENDIARY CLASH WITH THE FORCES OF CHAOS!
