BFG:LEVIATHAN (old title : Mobile turn-based Battlefleet Gothic prototype)

Hi guys,
to let you know, than some video game developper are thinking about us :
https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/mobile-turn-based-battlefleet-gothic-prototype

The studio is french, and the project just starting.
You may follow some developement on BFG FR :

I would say there is a 0% chance that GW don't modban the heck out of that.

A shame, as vassal is clunky as heck.

Countdown to cease and desist...

Yeah, if they would have had the licence backing would be easy, but now...

I do agree with you, but maybe with the new GW politics in term of videogame developement, something could happen.
I am especially thinking to the WarhammerQuest story :

I will be happy to have a BFG-like version on smartphone and tablet.
Like Hunters was a SpaceHulk-like.

Finally the BFG tablet version is almost done

Most of my gaming these days is on an iPad during my train commute, so I'm really looking forward to this.

I'm a little surprised that the Tyranids show up as the bad guys so often: Space Hulk, Deathwatch the PC/iPad game, Deathwatch the board game, the board game with scouts in the jungle... imo they're usually less interesting than humanoid bad guys that have a little more character.  But at least in space they won't be melee-heavy.  Always more fun if they shoot back. 

Can't wait.

Yeah, it's true ! In this case, our campaign mode is based on the Shield of Baal campaign, that's why we couldn't do it otherwise.

Looks interesting. Two questions. What does "mobile & tablet" actually mean? Will this game support Windows Phone? I'm one of these old fashioned guys who still relies on a traditional computer. So is there a chance to get this game running on windows?

Hello !

One sure thing is that we won't release on PC, the game is made for mobile and tablet only ! And firstly, we want to focus on our iOS release on iPhone and iPad. We didn't think yet about an Android or Windows phone version, we'll see in the futur (depending on our iOS release)!

Is this on Android?

And how did you guys get GW to buy off on it?

As I said to MaWo79, there's no Android or Windows phone version planned right now, we want to focus on our iOS release first !

Well, 3 passionated men had this great idea about turning the tabletop game into a mobile game, they just gathered their courage, send a mail to GW... And here we are now !
