Warmachine Becomes Warmachine: Tactics, Kickstarter Campaign Launched

It has been nearly four years since Privateer Press Interactive announced that developer WhiteMoon Dreams would be bringing us a strategic action RPG in the Warmachine universe, and to achieve that goal, the publisher has launched a Kickstarter campaign to raise an extra $550,000 on their way to the finish line. The game has taken on a subtitle of "Tactics" and turn-based combat is now confirmed, too:
Imagine wading into battle with a squad of skilled warriors at your command, a cadre of ten-ton robots that obey your every thought, and the power of a thunderstorm in the palm of your hand.

That's what we want you to experience in WARMACHINE: Tactics, the turn-based tactics game that, with your help, will bring the award-winning WARMACHINE miniatures game from the tabletop to your desktop PC or Mac.

Privateer Press Interactive and video game developer WhiteMoon Dreams have joined forces to bring WARMACHINE to life. Inspired by the predecessors of this hallowed genre like Valkyria Chronicles, Final Fantasy Tactics, and the X-COM franchise, WARMACHINE: Tactics seeks to break new ground for turn-based tactics games by delivering a never-before-seen level of dynamic battlefield combat.

As you'll see in the video, the development team has worked around the clock for several months to prove we have the experience and the ability to turn WARMACHINE into an incredible video game worthy of your pledge. Kickstarter has provided the opportunity to realize this vision, and with you on our side, we can make it a reality.
