Hey Guys!

Space Hulk is coming back into print this September!  We are still waiting accurate price information but it looks like this will be a VERY limited release!  Let us know if you want one reserved ASAP!

I'll update this message with pricing once I have it confirmed!


Game Details:
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.

This boxed game contains: a 23-page Rulebook, a 47-page Mission book and 35 finely-detailed, plastic Citadel miniatures, including: 11 Space Marine Terminators, one Space Marine Terminator Librarian, 22 Genestealers, and one Broodlord.

Also included are:
105 gaming counters, 24 corridors, 10 rooms, eight crossroads, eight T-junctions, six corner sections, four dead ends, four end pieces, 20 doors with plastic stands, one mission status display, and three plastic mission objectives, including: a dead Space Marine on throne, a Blood Angels artefact and a Cyber-Altered Task Unit. Plus a sand timer and five bone-coloured dice unique to this game.

Get your reservations in as soon as you can.  This one is on the way to selling out!

Really good stuff.  Do you want a new copy Steve or do you have a previous version?

Doh, I really want this game, but am not sure I can justify the price they are asking for it. Especially for a 2 player game. I wonder if they are going to re-release the expansions also. If so, I might have to bite at this one. Ughhh...decisions, decisions.

Hey guys, decide quickly.  I just got off the phone with the publisher and they are already allocating.  They have no intention of keeping this game in print and they are actually going to under-print the title.  Which means pre-orders get it first and it may never appear in open stock.

Which is a bit of a bummer...It's a really fun title.

Just a head's up to everyone - the game pieces do not come painted.

I would have been surprised if they came painted.  How would GW sell paint and brushes otherwise?

I had hope, but either way I'm still excited for it.  Just means I got to go to AC Moore or Michales and paint.  That or pay someone which is also an option.  Or just play with them being one color.

We always played with them as one color.  We reserved our painting for the 'real' 40k armies.
