New major update

New game mode - Crusade

The Crusade Mode is a new game feature that will challenge players to start with a basic army and fight their way through hordes of enemies, to earn the opportunity to expand both their forces and firepower. The mode also adds a new way to level up the troops, with a new experience system based on the ferocity of the battle, with a variety of ways to upgrade entire classes of troops.

New free units

For this years Skulls we wanted to give you some new free units. Last year we sent new forces for Necrons and Tyranids. This time Sisters of Battle and Orks will reap the benefits. The Adepta Sororitas can now count on the Dominions. The Dominions are specialist assault infantry who excel when making rapid deployments against enemy forces.
While the Orks are gaining the much requested melee version of the Boyz as the lads with Choppas and Sluggas are here and ready for a scrap.

Future

2025 is going to be yet another stellar year for Battlesector. Well be regularly updating the game with feature updates and faction balance changes as we go through the year. There will also be something new, exciting and a bit chaotic coming towards the end of the year
