After seeing these 2 posts from Ash it got me all hot and sweaty to get close to some Genestealers.
What better time to try out some solo Space Hulk and I do enjoy Space Hulk.
If you aren't familiar with the Deathwing solo rules here they are.
I'd been meaning to get a hold of some of the 2nd edition metal Deathwing Terminators and Ireally wanted the squad to be lead by a chaplain.
So there you go! I plan on getting the squad prepped and painted and playing games as soon as possible! I will document that as I get things complete. Meanwhile if you aren't following Ash you should as he's already got another Battle report up!
Exciting times! Fun idea getting the Chaplain incorporated – never realised that he's missing in the official rules.
ReplyDeleteIt's a gap in the rules for sure. I have a couple ideas I'm putting together how to use him. I'll save that for another post tho.
DeleteChaplains were in short, dudes to keep marines away from routing am I right? I say because Astartes already aren't the kind of guys who lack motivation and being inside a hulk is possibly the scenario where chances drop to zero.
ReplyDeleteThat's why I think Chaplains aren't portrayed in hulk jumper teams.
I'd say I wish I had that stuff physical. Irradiates oldschoolness, specially the hybrid expansion but truth to be said, I have yet to assemble and paint (and play!) my own 3rd ed spacehulk 🤐
Don't worry I have all this stuff for years as well. Just now finally getting to it. I'm having a blast tho atm....Really excited for this project.
DeleteNice use of that artwork for the site's header tho!
ReplyDeleteThanks....I've been on an 80's black and white comic kick and it just seemed right. ;)
DeleteAm I hearing 2000AD?
Delete😍B/W or bust.
I remember so good comics raped inside out so hard by bad colour "artists"...
Actually TMNT and Usagi Yojimbo
DeleteVery cool! I thought I was following GMG, but apparently not. Looking forward to seeing what you do with your Deathwing and hear your thoughts on the solo gameplay.
ReplyDeleteHe's def worth a follow. Ya I'm pretty excited about this. Hope to get to it pretty quick.
DeleteChaplain miniature rock! I've never played to SH solo but the rules seems to work well. I keep an eye here...
ReplyDeleteThe rules seem easy enough, and the genestealers are laser focused to kill. I'm hoping it goes well. I'll definitely share the progress on the project.
DeleteBack when the stealers were actually deadly as fuck.
ReplyDeleteNever played solo but I love Deathwing back in the day.
Looking forward to seeing that lead pile painted mate.
Ya Stealers are nasty! I never have either so quite looking forward to it, I might let my daughter play the stealers once in awhile too. I'll get them painted before you know it. ;)
