Battlesector and Gladius are taking part in the Warhammer Skulls Festival, with quite a few announcements and releases, as well as a sale across the whole franchise.
But let's take a look at it, shall we?
Warhammer 40,000: Battlesector
New faction coming soon
First off, we're delighted to announce a brand new playable faction will soon be available as DLC.
The Adepta Sororitas will become playable as a full faction later during the year, with a complete roster of units and tailored gameplay mechanics.
We can't wait to show you more, and we will post more information about how they play and about their units.
You can wishlist Sisters of Battle now:

We will update the store page with the release date, new screenshots and information as we draw closer to release.
New game mode & Daemon units announced
Alongside Sisters of Battle we will release a free update which adds a new game mode: Daemonic Incursion.
You will need to fend off endless hordes of Daemon units and survive as long as possible in what will be a veritable orgy of slaughter and carnage. It won't be for the faint of heart, that's for sure.
The new Daemon units will be also included for free as a neutral faction in Planetary Supremacy. Stay tuned to learn more about the Daemons and Daemonic Incursion.
And speaking of Planetary Supremacy...
New Planetary Supremacy additions
Today we're releasing a free update, which contains, among other things, the first round of improvements to Planetary Supremacy.
We are adding HQ Upgrades for all factions: each playable faction now has a full tech tree to unlock.
Furthermore, new options when starting new games have been added.
This was a highly requested feature, and it's part of our first round of improvements to to Planetary Supremacy.
And there is more...
New Penitent Engine unit
As a free goodie, we are releasing a new Penitent Engine.
It is available to the Sisters of Battle minor faction in Planetary Supremacy, and it will join the full ranks of the Sisters of Battle as they become a full faction later this year.
Steam Cards, Sale and more
We are of course discounting Battlesector and its DLCs across the duration of the Skulls Festival, so this would be the best time to complete your collection.
