As for feel, this game is the action movie game to end all action movie games. This is the game where you can let them happily be the most kick ass characters, and it doesn't wreck the game. It's set up that way. Running the game was great fun and my players throughly enjoyed it because it lets them be space marines.2. No, you don't need miniatures. The ways the rules are set mini's would probably be a hindrance. Some opponents (Tyranids, lesser deamons and orc boyz, for example) are set to be played as a horde. Hordes are dozens or hundreds of creatures under a single stat block. DW combat is very much played out in the imagination.3. If you can't tell from how I've described the game... it's fun. But you do need to know the game universe and don't worry about being tight with the rules like most RPG's (at least in my experience).The games so far I'd rate in order as Deathwatch, Dark Heresy and then Rogue Trader. Black Crusade (playing Chaos Marines) comes out in a few months too.</blockquote>
