Warhammer 40,000: Mechanicus is a Turn Based Strategy game made by Bulwark Studios. Most importantly, in this age of Games Workshop handing out their IP to anyone that bites, it is one of the few Warhammer games made recently that keeps both TBS and Warhammer lore fans happy at the same time.

A comparison of those two may pique your interest, as it should.
