Epic is a tabletop wargame set in the fictional Warhammer 40,000 universe. Whereas Warhammer 40,000 involves small battles between forces of a few squads of troops and two or three vehicles, Epic features battles between armies consisting of dozens of tanks and hundreds of soldiers. Due to the comparatively larger size of the battles, Epic miniatures are smaller than those in Warhammer 40,000, with a typical human being represented with a 6mm high figure, as opposed to the 28mm minis used in Warhammer 40,000. Since being first released in 1988 as Adeptus Titanicus, it has gone through various editions with varying names.

  • Epic – seria figurkowych gier bitewnych rozgrywanych w świecie Warhammer 40,000, wydawana przez brytyjską firmę Games Workshop. W odróżnieniu od bardziej popularnej gry Warhammer 40,000, konflikty w grze Epic toczą się na większą skalę. Tym samym figurki reprezentujące jednostki są mniejsze – przedstawiają całe niewielkie oddziały. Dodatkowo na polach bitew pojawią się maszyny z powodu siły i rozmiarów nieużywane w standardowym systemie – np. superciężkie czołgi, czy olbrzymie roboty bojowe – tytany. (pl)
  • Epic ist ein Miniaturenspiel (auch Tabletop-Spiel genannt) im Warhammer 40.000-Universum das 1997 veröffentlicht wurde. Im Gegensatz zu den besser bekannten Spielen Warhammer 40.000 und Warhammer Fantasy Battle wird Epic jedoch mit Figuren im 6 mm-Maßstab (1:285) gespielt. Das Spiel wird nicht mehr direkt von Games Workshop vertrieben, sondern von einem Unternehmensbereich mit dem Namen Specialist Games. (de)

  • Epic est un jeu de figurines issu de l'univers Warhammer 40,000 de Games Workshop. Les figurines mesurent 6 mm contre 28 mm pour celles de Warhammer 40,000. Grâce à cette différence d'échelle, le jeu s'avère plus stratégique en comparaison de Warhammer 40k, qui est plus tactique. Les adversaires alignent souvent des armées composées d'une quinzaine de régiments (unités, effectif non défini allant de la centaine au millier de combattants) pour les parties rapides (1 500 points d'armée) ou plus ambitieuses (entre 3 000 et 5 000 points, parfois plus). Chaque unité appartient à un type : infanterie, marcheurs, véhicules ou titans, ce qui lui confère des règles de mouvement particulières. Chaque armée de Warhammer 40,000 est représentée. (fr)
  • Epic Armageddon (EA40K) (prima anche solamente Epic o Epic 40.000) è un gioco da tavolo di tipo wargame tridimensionale ispirato alla cupa ed oscura ambientazione futuristica di Warhammer 40.000, che prevede miniature alte però 6mm, per permettere la ricreazione di battaglie campali di enorme scala (tattiche, ma anche strategiche); prodotto dalla Games Workshop e dalla società che gli fa capo Forge World dal 1988.
