Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader - Ground Combat Trailer

The 41st millennium... that unforgiving world. And much to everyone's delight (even small configurations), Rogue Trader will be arriving soon on December 7th. And with it comes a myriad of ways to annihilate your enemies. Let's delve into the subtleties of combat to give you an edge when things go wrong, isolated in the confines of the Imperium.

Ranged or Melee, the choice is yours! In the future, you can fight from a distance or in fierce melee combat. The Ballistic skill is crucial for ranged combat, but keep in mind that staying under cover is as essential as it is devastating. Master the range of your firearms and select the ideal tactic: single shot, devastating burst or deluge of fire. Admit it, you've got a hankering to throw buckets of spiked dice?

Hand-to-hand combat is also demanding, requiring great agility. Choosing the right weapon for the job is crucial, and don't forget to rally your allies before engaging in hostilities. Watch out for snipers ;)

Your armour is powerful, but beware, especially in the case of critical hits, which can inflict up to 150% of normal damage. Morale, represented by the level of enthusiasm, is an important factor in battle. Your group can trigger unique abilities based on morale, adding a crucial tactical dimension to your battles.

Here's a quick overview of how combat works in Warhammer 40,000: Rogue Trader. Armed with this knowledge, you should be able to hold your own and crush your enemies with style and panache. Or, if all else fails, make sure you have a valid intergalactic excuse.
