Let’s play SPACE HULK | Games Workshop’s best board game
Рет қаралды 134,716
Күн бұрынMan Versus Alien In Desperate Battle! The tagline says it all. What a fantastic game. This particular edition is the 4th version from 2014.
Space Hulk has been out of print for almost a decade, and needless to say, we’d love to see a rerelease! No, not a Kill Team or a Boarding Actions “reimagining”, just… Space Hulk.
THE PLAYERS
Space Marines: Mikey from @HellstormWargaming
Genestealers: Steve from Little Plastic People

Hope you enjoyed this one-off "let's play" video! Let us know if you want to see more like this. By the way, here are some rules that the dudes didn't get quite right, just in case you were wondering: - The Terminators can't jam during their action phase, only in overwatch. They ended up wasting an action point clearing a jam that would have never happened. - Sustained Fire only comes into effect if you remain stationary. A couple of times, Mikey used the rule while moving and shooting. - Mikey forgot the +1 to the Librarian gets to his close combat attacks, so wasted a couple of Psi-points boosting his beyond what was required. - Both players accidentally played a double turn 5, so the Genestealers would have started receiving 3 blips in the reinforcement phase 1 turn before they did. Even given those small mistakes, I don't think it would have changed the outcome much. What a brutal game!
@PartisanGamerDE Жыл бұрын
also I think Terminators too can move diagonally in front of them for 1 action. Many times during the game we had Terminators do unnecessary turning actions.

@jibini83 Жыл бұрын
It looks like the terminators only rolled one command point in turn seven (in the "lost footage" at 23:23), but used two (24:18), which the intro said was an instant loss (1:24).

Also I'll add that the timer is supposed to be 3 minutes (thought sand timers are notoriously not accurate). I add that because if your set is like my set, the sand clumped up into a solid a long time ago. lol

There are 12 different missions in the box. About 4 or 5 of them are pretty well balanced. A lot of them can be fixed with minor tweaks to the rules. This mission is actually usually pretty easy for the Terminator player, but only if they know what they're doing LOL. I don't think I've ever seen the terminators lose this mission before in any of the games I've played.

Doubles only jam if the Marine is firing on overwatch in the Genestealers' turn. Those two Marine turn "jams" shouldn't have been jams. That totally would have turned the game, honest... Steve never would have stood a chance! 🤣

When 3rd edition released in 2009 it was the first board game box to break the USD 100 mark that I remember. It became a a harbinger of things to come. Knowing GW if a new edition comes out they will price it at USD 200.
@oskarlonnqvist7074 9 ай бұрын
I guess maybe GW is just sticking to having ppl get leviathan, and the new 10th edition stuff and having ppl use the boarding actions terrain set to do similar scenarios like in Space Hulk and Space Crusade but obviously it's not the same exact game mechanics😐 I still hope they will release a new version! Maybe a new version could have like boss fights! I've always been fascinated by Space Hulk but never owned it myself and it's a dilemma for me if I should buy an expensive preowned version online of the space hulk they are playing in the video or wait and see if GW comes out with a revamp.

I don’t have a huge experience of playing GW games but I have always loved Space Hulk and this video shows most of the reasons why. It has a simple rules set which allows players to focus on strategy as opposed to thumbing through pages and pages of rule books and codices. It’s incredibly tactical - although the general perception is that the odds are always stacked against the marines, in my experience, there is always a way for them to win if they deploy their squad(s) correctly and a few dice rolls go their way. The board looks amazing and, most importantly, it’s great fun to play. Thanks so much for the video Guy and co. I really enjoyed it.
