About Rites of War

Rites of War features a tightly crafted storyline composed of 24 missions and varied victory conditions as you lead the Eldar in their fight for survival. Additional scenarios allow for control of Tyrannid and Imperial armies and a glory point system lets you build and customize your own army, with 8 distinct troop classes ranging from War Machines to Assault Troops to Devastator Squads. A level-based experience system enhances the game’s RPG (Role-Playing Game) element, allowing you to upgrade and customize units, enhance warrior skills and employ “psyker” (psychic) abilities.
