Is this like the tabletop game?

Lazy/dumb question: wondering if this is anything like the tabletop game (or has any similar elements)?

Or, does anyone have any recommendations for a Warhammer 40K game that's similar to the tabletop game? Basically, I have some friends who want me to get into the tabletop version, but since I'm on quarantine lock down, I was looking for something solo I could dip into to learn the basics!

This is not like the tabletop game, no, it's more like XCOM/Banner Saga.

You're probably looking for something more like "Armageddon", though there's a reason that GW doesn't actively let people make like for like replicas of their tabletop game.

Ah, alright, thanks! Makes sense that they wouldn't wanna cannibalize their own sales, but at the same time, a game that taught people how to play would be a nice gateway into the physical product.

Indeed! I'd totally be down for that! :)

Howdy, if your looking for a 40K tabletop experience you might want to consider Sanctus Reach, I think it’s the closest game available. It’s a bit rough around the edges but it might be the experience your looking for.
