Ready to play Space Hulk!
Finally, I've finished assembling all the pieces to be able to play Space Hulk.
Between a lot of Real World™ tasks and the arrival on pc of some nice games (specially Dragon Age), I've been a bit off from non-computer related gaming.
The assembled miniatures look just amazing, my only complaint is that they are clearly Blood Angels and I want Deathwing terminators, so even if it's not an easy task I'm going to try to reconvert them. Up to the moment I've only removed a few Blood Angel drop icons, but there is still a lot of work (and the incredible detail the miniatures have doesn't help to ease the task ;)
I'm halfway through the rulebook and unless my memory fails is almost the same rules of the first edition, but including Deathwing expansion weapons and Psykers/Librarians.
Time to find a free weekend morning to play it!
Space Hulk Limited Edition
They had it so perfectly planned that I first new about this via an official email than in any website (even being held the Games Day). Games Workshop has officially announced the new Space Hulk limited edition.
There were rumors (even talking about a fully plastic version), and seems that part of them were true. The game will feature the following plastic units:
- 11 Space Marine Terminators,
- 1 Space Marine Terminator Librarian
- 22 Genestealers
- 1 Broodlord
- 3 plastic mission objectives: a dead Space Marine on throne, a Blood Angels artifact and a Cyber-Altered Task Unit.
Plus corridor sections, doors, markers, counters, dice, a sand clock (seems that they are keeping the "real time pressure" turns), the rulebook and a mission book.
Having a librarian, a captain and the broodlord looks like the rules will be a mixture of the original Space Hulk plus parts of the expansions. I'm eager to chech the new rules and test them!
Having more terminators and genestealers I hope rules can be adapted for more than two players (and I can switch to the old ruleset anyway).
The miniatures look amazing (alhough I'll probably convert and paint them into Deathwing Terminators, to join my existing army). The genestealers look fantastic too, and will add more variety to the dozens I already have (I'm actually thinking about doing some imperial guard conversions to create genestealer hybrids).
Ahh, I can't wait for the 5th of september (well, a few more days until the order arrives home).
Book Review: The Deathwing Story (from Space Hulk's Expansion)
I read a while ago on a Warhammer 40k blog that people were trying to find the original Dark Angels Deathwing Chapter original story, only published inside of the rules of the Deathwing expansion of Space Hulk.
Well, I have something that might interest you. Specifically, that story scanned in PDF.
All the 19 pages (including a cover) containing that original story, in english. It's a full page scan (no OCR) and it looks a bit worn of on the borders, but it is perfectly readable.
UPDATE: Downloads section no longer exists.
