Monolith-con 2020 Space Hulk

 Space Hulk is one of mine and Lopez's favorite games.  I setup a little map with an objective to check 2 logbooks one of them being damaged and then to exit the map.

 

 We finally got Lopez's Ultramarine squad on the table for this.

 

 To take on my Genestealer horde with new Patriarch.

The marines enter the hulk using a boarding torpedo and make for the first log book signal.

Of course it's broken and they have stirred up the genestealers!

Things go from bad to worse quickly.

Redstripe goes down...

 

Bluechecks clears the corridor and makes his way to the second logbook.

 

 And then gets himself into an ambush.

 

 The Sergeant moves down with another battle brother and backs  him up with the Thunder Hammer

 

 In another hallway the Assault Cannon goes down.

 

 It becomes impossible to retrieve the second logbook as the genestealers close in.

 

 Mission.....Failure!!!

  1. Love the look of the classic terminators and genestealers. Great looking game, and unfortunately the marines got outnumbered as is often the case with spacehulk

  2. Space Hulk is one of the hardest games I've ever played so there's no shame in the marines dying. And they did it looking awesome, and isn't that what matters?

  3. Glorious! A glorious death, as it happens, but those bugs are vicious. Yeah, Spay Sulk is the hard. Well done! Everything looks great and I'm glad you managed to get some game on.

  4. What a great looking game. Did you guys run a campaign, or just a one off?

  6. Absolutely beautiful. While I always preferred the system for Space Hulk 2nd edition, the old school models are gorgeous.
