Polygon: ''When Crytek artist Erasmus Brosdau decided to work on a side-project in his spare time, he opted to make a very short CGI piece about his favorite science fiction world, Warhammer 40K.
In the three years since, his little project has become one of the most notable pieces of fan-fiction in the world, with 30,000 Facebook likes and keen interest from a hardcore section of gaming fandom.

The Horus Heresy: Drop Assault is a base-building real time strategy game set in the Warhammer 40k universe. A civil war has erupted within the Space Marine Legions after the Emperor is betrayed by his son Horus.

do not think dark millenium is coming this year, or did i miss something? i would have expected more info on it, than the little that is known, if it were launching this year.
THQ's Warhammer 40K MMO, Dark Millennium Online "is going to be a masterpiece," reckons core games VP, Danny Bilson.

If it's a boring as WoW they can keep it. I like playing the table top 40k, but, Wow is just a huge borefest.
