The Emperor's Hand

The faithful increase. This in good part due to the dark age of technology we live in, bearing fruit yet again with the blessings of Games Workshop, which has granted the scholars at HeroCraft permission to oversee the creation of Warhammer 40.000: Space Wolf.

A long-lasting tradition of remaining tight-lipped about their novel works is being honoured, but our sources have informed us it is to be a free-to-play collectible card game.

 

 

Some more has been accrued by the adeptus of the PC Gamer chapter:

 

 

 

The team promise a branching campaign against Necrons and Word Bearers; and multiple strategic paths, including Grey Hunter, Wolf Scout, Blood Claw, or Wolf Guard. Rather than focus purely on duelling, the decks players construct will be used to tactically command squads through interactive 3D environments.

 

 

 

Sanity is for the weak, so fear not the maddening wait for its release sometime in the year of 2014.

Eurogamer deals a little more info:

 

Each turn a character gets a choice between five or six cards and is usually only able to pick two of them. These cards represent attacking, moving and equipping defensive or offensive abilities.
