Phoenix Engine (Relic)

The celebrated third person action shooter Space Marine is now on GOG, so here's five 40k mods to get you in the grimdark mood, whether they be total conversions or original mods!

UMW 40k version 3 (ASV)

By ASV

This mod is dedicated to the adequate implementation of the Warhammer 40k universe based on the legendary game Men of War: Assault Squad 2. Fifteen factions feature alongside multiplayer support, with a unique set of mechanics specially designed for the mod, singleplayer missions for solo or co-op play, and a careful eye held on the execution of the 40k universe. For those wanting an RTS experience in 40k outside of the usual purview of Dawn of War, this is one you can't miss.

Battlefield 40K - BF1942

By Battlefield 40K Developers

Battlefield 40k is a total conversion of Battlefield 1942 based on Games Workshops table top war-game - Warhammer 40,000. Featuring the Space Marines, humanity's strongest and most elite warriors, the Imperium of Man staves off countless threats. Now, fight against the vile forces of Chaos, a cancerous manipulator in the galaxy that has turned even the Emperor's Finest against His own forces. Fight on barren wastelands, sprawling deserts and in shattered cities. Total war!

Warhammer 40k: Red Alert

By Major_Gilbear

Warhammer 40k: Red alert is an exciting Total Conversion for Red alert 2/Yuri's Revenge. All the sounds, graphics, and maps of the original Red alert 2/Yuri's Revenge are changed to the Warhammer 40k universe. The current playable sides are Imperial Guard, Space Marines and Chaos Space Marines. Each side is distinct and has unique units and superweapons.

Warhammer 40,000: Enter Phoenix

By Tragicvision

Welcome to a new single player episodic linear campaign expansion mod for Dawn of War: Soulstorm that aims to put the literature, lore and stories back into the games as well as introducing new Eldar characters. As a single player campaign, it aims to use mostly native assets and concentrate on a thrilling and unpredictable campaign with branching narratives and a brand new heart breaking story to the Warhammer 40,000 universe.

Thirteenth Company

By Thudmeizer mod team

Lost to the Warp during the Horus Heresy, the Space Wolves 13th Company has been gone for over 10,000 years only to re-emerge in normal space during Abbadon's 13th Black Crusade. They are a small group of Space Wolves' marines with very little to no access to vehicles solely rely on their infantry and commanders to carry the day. The 13th are experts at infiltration and guerilla warfare, hence strong use of Smoke Grenades and traps, and call upon the use of the fearsome Wulfen - marines that are as much wolf as man!

Chainswords Up

Space Marine is one of the few 40K games that isn't Dawn of War (the first two, we mean) that people regard as a real hit for the series. Taking you into third person in control of one of the Emperor's finest, it's your job to smash up Orks and, later, heretics in a frantic singleplayer campaign, and then fight with or against your friends in multiplayer action. The game celebrated its 10th anniversary last year and received some free content along with the celebration, and now, it's available on GOG for people who prefer that storefront to Steam.

There Is Only War

Space Marine's 10th Anniversary was shortly met by an announcement of a sequel - giving fans a look into the fate of the fan favourite Captain Titus, now facing down the Tyranids in equally bloody fashion. We're excitedly anticipating the release of the sequel so we can cleave through the enemies of the Imperium once more.
