Warhammer 40K: Squad Command bound for DS, PSP

THQ today announced a portable entry into the Warhammer 40,000 franchise in the form of Squad Command. A turn-based strategy game bound for the Nintendo DS and Sony PSP, Warhammer 40,000: Squad Command will boast an "engaging, authentic single-player storyline," as well as an online multiplayer mode. It will also (presumably) allow you to command a squad at some point.

Whether said squad belongs to the Imperium of Man or Chaos Space Marines is up to you, as is the manner in which you conquer the game's "fully destructible" 3D battlefields. THQ promises that both versions will make full use of their respective platforms, and that you can look for the game on shelves later this year.
