The most recent edition, Fourth Edition, of Epic is often referred to as Epic: Armageddon after the first rulebook released for it. The greater benefit is that Epic is comparable to W40K: Apocalypse in the sense that they both center around larger battlefields with a larger number of troops and vehicles in command, but the monetary investment was, at the time, much smaller with Epic. Epic-scale aircraft are also used in the game Aeronautica Imperialis. The comparatively smaller size of the miniatures also allows players to use many of the larger vehicles and creatures of the Warhammer 40,000 universe, such as Titans and super-heavy tanks, even in small games.Įpic's rule system incorporates Aircraft as well as ground units, and allows players to utilize many aircraft at once. Gameplay-wise, the major difference between Epic and other Games Workshop games is that instead of a player moving and firing all of his forces at once, players take turns moving one or two formations at a time, giving the feeling of a battlefield developing in real time, and also resulting in a game that is more tactically complex than standard Warhammer 40,000. A game of Epic will normally take around two hours to play.
