"This is not a perfect game but in reality, that is something games should only strive for and not one of them will ever reach. With that in mind, Black Lab Games certainly did an amazing job in that pursuit …"

"The only major flaws holding this game back are that there only two playable factions and only one faction gets their own single-player campaign. But aside from that, Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector is a great, addictive strategy game that wonderfully translates …"

"A nice turn-based tactical game, simple to understand but hard to master, set in the ever-fascinating Warhammer 40.000 universe. The experience is fun, but just two armies and one campaign don&s;t fully justify the relatively steep price."

"The Momentum concept, designed to shake up a relatively classic turn-based experience, is interesting but does not affect the action enough. Black Lab has already said that they are planning to add more factions to the game, presumably with a …"

"Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector is a solid turn-based tactical game, but also quite generic. That&s;s because the developers did almost nothing to differentiate their game from other titles in the same genre. Recommended if you&s;re a WH40K enthusiast, but demanding turn-based …"

"Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector offers an authentic tabletop experience, except in a much more convenient form. The game major&s;s issue is the lacking hardware optimization, but despite that it should provide you with dozens of hours of fun."

"Warhammer 40000: Battlesector is another great example of Games Workshop’s hands-off approach with the license working wonders. It’s such a fun game, with a great fast paced take on turn-based combat. Fast, flashy, and both factions play true to form."
