Reception Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon received "mixed or average" reviews according to review aggregator Metacritic. Several critics called the game very similar to Panzer Corps, Slitherine's game from 2011. Jim Cobb of Armchair General summarized: "[...] Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon captures the flavor and fascination of the Warhammer franchise. The turn-based nature adds a level of tactical thought to play. No gamer can do much wrong by getting this game. In fact, they will be harming themselves if they don’t get it." Richie Shoemaker of Eurogamer said that "[a]t the core of Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon there is a very good strategy game, unfortunately too much of it is either obscured, poorly explained or needs attention before it can be given a recommendation." Adam Smith of Rock Paper Shotgun said that "[i]t's an accessible wargame and a good place to start for those familiar with the fiction and looking to make the jump to hex-based warfare."
