About the game
Warhammer 40,000: Conquest is a two-player living card game set in the grimdark 41st millennium, where warlords lead one of seven factions in a battle to conquer the planets of the Traxis sector. Players deploy units to fight simultaneously across multiple planets, aiming to claim three planets sharing a common resource symbol to win. Deep faction identities and an alignment system for forming alliances create varied, replayable matchups. A strong choice for fans of area-control card combat and the Warhammer 40,000 universe.
Hobbli's Notes
Hobbli's editors appreciate the tight, tactical area-majority combat and the strong asymmetry between factions, though the game's out-of-print LCG status makes it harder to find expansions today. Still a rewarding two-player card game for fans willing to track down the cards.
