Description Edit | History

From the depths of space an ancient vessel drifts slowly towards the Imperium of Mankind - a space hulk. Within its confines, untold thousands of Genestealers slowly emerge from hibernation. The Space Marines must enter the cramped corridors and tomb-like chambers of the ancient ship to defeat this alien menace.

Space Hulk is a board game for two players, recreating the battles fought between the Space Marines and Genestealers. One player commands the Space Marines as they carry out deadly missions in the ancient Space Hulk, and the other commands the horde of Genestealers opposing them. Space Hulk's fast-paced rules simulate the tense atmosphere of a mission deep inside the cramped confines of a derelict space hulk, where split-second decisions are needed for victory.

17 Alternate Genestealer and Terminator Entry Points
For all those who dislike having jigsaw edges visible while playing here are some alternate Genestealer Entry Points and Terminator controlled area tiles which "cap" the ends of the corridors nicely. All credit goes to fiore hellheart of the WarSeer forums where I found these. Only made two small edits, the first was removing a glow from around the edge of the tiles and second was to resize them slightly. Unfortunately I don't know how to setup a .pdf document with correct sizes for printing so you'll have to print these at around 150px per inch or 50px per cm.

13 SH 3rd Ed expansion reference tables
UPDATED 10-15-09 - Addressed some formatting issues and reordered the pages based on suggestions. Reference tables for third edition for units and weapons provided in first edition expansions. A lot of this requires the original expansion rules to make sense of, but I've updated all the numbers to third edition as best I could. The weapons table compared the expansions to the (unofficial) SH Bible weapon table to the (typo heavy) SH Campaigns weapons table and I made some judgment calls on how 3rd ed. would handle them. The AP table is incomplete thus far, and again required some calls on how the "free 90" would be interpreted. Comments, suggestions, corrections welcome.

13 Mission Status Display (Red) for Traitor Terminators
By request, I scanned my vanilla mission status display and themed it for traitor space marines. This one in particular is for the Death Guard. Used a orangey-red tone to complement the red tokens I created and generally keep with the color scheme of the Death Guard. Various imperfections were brushed on and photoshopped cracked glass. [img]http://images.boardgamegeek.com/images/pic580519_lg.jpg[/img] Features an unofficial Death Guard emblem drawn by Altermundus, who's work can be [url=http://altermundus.deviantart.com/gallery/]found here.[/url] Enjoy!
