Don't get me wrong. I love this game. But I also enjoy to swap between games. Is there any good games with similar style as this one? - I must mention I've played fallout tactics and overfall to the death of them.

Space Hulk, Xcom for turn-based games come to mind. If you're just looking for Ironman difficulty then try Diablo 3 or Path of Exile which have hardcore modes that lead to perma-char death (though technically PoE your char just perma dies from hardcore but can still play in softcare).

I've tried Space Hulk and made myself vomit despite loving the lore.The clunkyness of the space marines feels so terribly wrong to me.They are supposed to move in those armorsuits as a second skin. Still, ofc they should not be able to jump like Gabriel in dow3. - ... It's a touchy subject to me >.< - space hulk is fantastic for a boardgame, less so in pc for me. Also played a lot of PoE and I do enjoy it but moved on in search for that special something more. Diablo 3, a loveable game but been there and done that. - mhm, my bad for not mentioning playing these games earlier! - Still, PoE, Diablo 3 are fantastic games. Space Hulk... a lot can be forgiven due to the amazing lore, but the gameplay is simply too clunky for my taste. - I did try Expeditions Vikings, finished that game and felt satisfied. I must admit, I do miss games resembling Fallout Tactics the most. Also played Banner Saga, Another fantastic game.

Hmm..
Played and loved:
Wasteland 2
Banner Saga
Fallout Tactics - Fallout 1&2
Diablo 3
Path to Exile
Xcom (got the 2nd title too)


Man... I wish Battlelore would be on pc too.

Terminators often aren't very agile. It's standard space marines that walk in armor like it's a second skin or a skin suit.

Afterall they have significant movement penalties on the tabletop, the technology behind them is a lot more janky and clunky. Most Terminator armor is typically older than the Mark VII suits the last modern era wore. Of course now we have Primaris Marines with Mark X and Gravis armor... which is throwing a lot of that out of the window.

Hello jumpjet jumping terminators and terminators that are closer to the old Mark VII marines for agility. (But of course Primaris Marines raised the bar)

[Vermel Silk]

That is true, you are absolutely right. I am dead wrong. I apologise.
Still, the game doesn't flow very well, it feels "not finished" when I played it.

Gotta admit that GW need to remove a few Space Marine types, it's getting a little ridiculous xD

[lPaladinl]

I'm not sure what you mean by there being too many space marine types. At least when it comes to most of their armor, they're all the same and fill the same roles. There's exceptions of course, such as Terminators, which there are 3 rulesets for 3 different eras of Terminator Armor... but they are mostly inversely correlated between movement per turn and armor value. You either get better movement with less armor, or more armor with less movement.

As for game suggestions, maybe you'd want to take a crack at JRPG Tactics games, such as Final Fantasy Tactics series, Disgaea Series, Phantom Brave, or the Front Mission series.

Of course most of those are not on PC. Disgaea 1, 2, and Phantom Brave are on Steam. Disgaea 3-5 you can get on PS3 or PS4. Disgaea 5 is also on Nintendo Switch. Final Fantasy Tactics was on Playstation and PSP. The sequels are on Gameboy Advance or DS.

Front Mission games being on scattered across SNES, Playstation, DS, and I believe Playstation 3 and 4 have most of them. Front Mission Evolved is on PC but it's not a tactical turn-based RPG and not the best game out there.

Chroma Squad is also on Steam. It's even bundled with Templar Battleforce as a deal. Steamworld Heist is also on Steam, and while not quite a tactical RPG in the usual sense, it's a turn based tactical shooter where you aim carefully with ricocheting bullets. Has some similarities to XCOM for mechanics, but is set in a platformer perspective with you aimming using a laser pointer and locking in your turns when you're happy with your angles.

Perhaps a bit too different in style for you but have you checked out another Trese Brothers game called Heroes of Steel?
I actually prefer it to Templar Battleforce but thats just me as I love tactical rpg's set in a fantasy world rather than a science fiction one.

[LeftPaw]

There are quite a few games similar, but none anywhere near good as TB.
Templar Battleforce is in my opinion, the best TB tactical game, for the price, on steam today.

Heroes of steel has come along way with the onslaught of patches and updates making it a very good game indeed, and at £6.99, a absolute steal.

There is also this one

I play it often and it's very good. It's more challenging than TB, the story is probably less interesting but there is crafting and quite a lot of things.

Maybe "Warhammer 40,000: Sanctus Reach"?
