  • when do you use power fists in game?

  • 3 shots at a range of one space?

    Fail.

  • Because genestealers are scary, it's dark and they can't find the trigger, their pussies, and their shaky because the genestealers are charging at them.

  • why are the terminators so bad at shooting in this it seems they have bs2

  • So seems unfairly easy for genestealers

  • genestealers so rock at this game

  • Comment removed

  • You should use the bolter sounds from Dawn of War 2. Much more badass.

  • 9:07, again you could activate and move the revealed Genestealers in your turn still, since you hadn't activated your blip before in that turn.

  • 8:19, the Terminator with the assault cannon has no LOS down the corridor (only the one space around the corner next to him), so the Genestealers could be moved forward closer to the Terminator without getting shot at.

  • 5:55, during the reinforcement phase your blips need to be placed outside the map at the GS entry points, not on the map. Also, the blip revealed at 7:09 would let you activate the resulting GS right away, you could move it - not ending your turn after reveal, in case you haven't activated the blip before. But on top I assume this blip was also incorrectly placed on the map during reinforcement.

  • 4:43, the Terminator with the assault cannon wouldn't be able to see the GS, he can't look into the corridor like that from his position.

  • At 2:17 you seemed to forget to count the action point needed for opening the door.

  • As stated at around 0:50, the Genestealer, if it'd have survived, wouldn't have six attacks in the GS turn, as it can only attack targets that are directly in front of it (and not diagonally from its position). It would've needed to move into position in front of the Space Marine first, then'd have five attacks left.

  • That model that survived getting surrounded? Stick a purity seal or badge on him or something.

  • where can i buy dice that make sound effects when rolled? thats awsome!

  • you guys need any original creepy music for your projects /videos? ill do you some for very cheap prices :)

  • Just bought a copy on ebay and been getting ready to paint these by doing a bunch or random models in my bitz box. Sooo excited for this game :D

    By the way, I have made some teams that can be used alternatively to the terminators. My question is...

    Does anyone know any good rules for a multiplayer game of this with more human players? Like a skirmish match where teams go in to fight genestealers aswell as each other?

    If anyone can help out, that would be amazing.

  • these space marines are blood angels right?

  • I want space hulk on pc!

  • @nofreedomofspeech you can get it from home of the underdogs for free

  • @EucharistOfHypnos Ok thanks! I'll check it out, but I have my suspicions that it's a very old game and I meant make a new one...

  • I like your vids, keep it up :)

    My only suggestion is to run the vid fast forward so we can see more.

  • ,';-)

  • You'd think they would've made guns that didn't jam in the 41st millenium

  • @BlankoPie Unfortunately anything with moving parts will break eventually.

  • This game was a very limited print; I've seen numbers as low as 1,000 copies. I've been trying to find this game myself, and very few retailers seem to have it in store (unless you want to order cross-world and pay like 300$ for it). There are some on Ebay, but don't expect to get it for 100$ anymore - maybe in the 200-250$ range.

  • "For the Emperor!" and die.

    lmao

    

  • ok, i saw this game at my local game shop about a year ago and it was $100. is there any way to get it now? or is it out of print/production?

  • im really enjoying this

  • The sound effects are great, having a PC or something with this sounds during a game might be a good idea...

  • to get this on ebay it cost 100£ yeah I'm from Scotland woooo wowowowowooo

  • i like watching these vids :) seems like we see more than usual most of the time it just shows the turn and the number and the new placement of guys for ur normal fantasy and 40k battles but with this we see a bit more of what goes on

  • For the emperor!

  • is it the marine players first time playing? he makes some really *really* dumb moves putting his marines in places where they are incredibly vulnerable.

  • im gonna get dis game for christmas

  • FOR THE EMPEROR! and die... that made my day! congrats, very nice game!

  • Damn i never thought this could be so intense :D

  • @Anonymous247n

    Yep, same here. Now I want a box of Spacehulk.

  • lol i jut watched the space hulk cartoon on newgrounds... i love it lololololll.... "baording pod 7, prepre to die... im mean launch" hahahaha i love this game too i've used my friends hybrid regular baord game with the spacehulk twist lol

  • @djc4n0 me too :D

  • sounds great with the sounds now, but i don't mean to sound like a nob head but theyre loud as hell lol, *quiet talking* *LOUD GUN* *falls off chair*

  • shit man, those genestealers are hard to kill though they're just as tough in the tabletop 40k as well.

  • they kinda too overpowered. 3 dice for them?, and only 1 for terminators

  • -FOR THE EMPEROR! And die

    Fun...I need play this one...Is games workshop or table game?

  • cool sfx guys.

  • 6:57''for the emperor''then dies

    LOL!

  • Comment removed

  • Nice vid. Just a few quirks tho

    0:25 - You can't shoot as part of a turn. You can only get a 'free' shot as part of a move.

    2:00 - No, you can reveal your blips and move them in the genestealers turn.

    4:48 - The assault cannon marine does not have LOS to the 'stealer.

    5:05 - He didn't have to use CP

    0:55 - The genestealer would not have had six attacks because it would have to spend one AP to move in front of the termie. You cannot attack diagonally

  • @wvdheuvel

    Another quirck in this particular mission is, Genestealers arn't allowed to lurk! They have to keep moving. So yeah, those 3 Genestealers in the corridor at around 8:00 are dead meat :D

  • Wellll, the mission says indeed you can't lurk. But the 'stealer player is not referring to the games' defenition of lurking (eg. keeping your 'stealers outside of the game board). He just means having them standing still, which is obviously always an option. You dont *have* to move.

  • However.. I don't think the Assault Cannon dude has line of sight until the very last moment. If you look closely you'll notice he's standing around the corner.

  • @wvdheuvel

    Yeah, that's true, but with how they are playing, he would be in field of view.

    Don't mind me if I get stuff wrong though (which I certainly will), I only played my first Space Hulk game this morning. First mission, failed horribly as Terminator side, but with my last terminator, while falling back to the board edge (flamer was dead already), to score a moral victory for myself, he alone shot down about... 25 Genestealers, only to die on the square exactly adjacing the board edge..

  • @Hyperion12121

    I'm by no means an expert on the game (just noticed a few things during this movie and looked it up). But the way I see it the 3 stealers at 8:20 can move without being shot at until they reach the corner itself.

    Although there seems to be some ambiguity about this subject.

  • @wvdheuvel quiestion about that actually, the book states "you may voluntarily reveal the blip instead of activating for the turn"

    or something very close to that effect, i made a mental note of it that it looks as if you CANT activate a stealer then turn they reveal, and you can shoot for 1 action point as part of the turn as well

  • My shop sold the last copy of space hulk....by the throne

  • If a blip hasn't moved yet, when you turn it face up the genestealers can still move:

    "If the blip has not yet been activated on the turn it is revealed, any genestealers placed are free to be activated as normal." (pg 17 of the rulebook)

    Just thought i'd clear that up. The genestealers don't need a handicap ;)

  • Comment removed

  • I'm confused. If your command marker says 4, can you use four action points? The genestealer player said that he didn't cheat by using all his action points. I thought you couldn't go over.

  • Normally, each terminator has four action points. When you use a command point, you get another one for a single terminator.

  • im confused about the whole command points thing.

    Can anyone explain to me how they work?

  • At the start of the turn, the space marine player draws a marker.

    He can shuffle it bach and choose again once if his commander is alive.

    These points can be spent to give the marines extra moves at any time on his turn, or whenever a marine witnesses a genestealer use an ap.

  • The "For the emperor... And die" statement made me laugh.

  • The spess muhreen player's dice hate him.

  • this game looks like a LOT of fun! I am so getting this! I've never gotten into the warhammer stuff, is it hard to put the pieces together and paint them?

  • putting space hulk together is ridiculously easy cos there snap togethers, painting on the other hand is dependant on how good u want em to look

  • it all depends if ur a fantasy player then it easy to assemble them and hard to paint them because of all their details. for 40k its hard to assemble cuz theres a lot of different options for ur guys and really hard to paint

  • the actual warhammer armies are a pain to do right, but these models are very easy to put together. painting will be like every other warhammer mini. warhammer is a ton of fun either in space hulk or in actual play

  • Are they playing inside a shop or it is some kind of club?

  • I thought they were just doing it at home?

  • Bring one dreadnought = scums exterminated

  • not necissisarily(?), genestealers have rending and are ninjas

  • Provided you can fit one into these corridors. ;)

  • they're both playing this soooooooo badly. . .

  • and u do better?

  • hell yes. . . they're even playing the rules wrong. . .

  • well they also said they used custom rules

  • wow you can see those dices are well used

  • lucky at 3:25-27 Overwatsch is great and i never let them touch me so easy just set my gunzz on full fire at long distance!!! Its even beter to have ur fire crosed on a place where the filth will come out. Takatakatakatak!!! AND THEY SHIT THEIR PANTS!!!

    MAY CHAOS EAT SHIT!!! :)

  • The Blood Angels are awesome yet they still take skill to play

  • or should i get it just 4 the game

  • DAKKADAKKADAKKA on turn 5-6

  • what ever happened to fireman tims spacedhulk project?

  • i don't know but i would like to see a Battle report on it. that would be awesome.

  • you may not be able to use the actual terminaters in normal games as you can only have either an assault squad (thunder hammers, claws) and a normal squad (guns). but they would look awesome

  • i think you can if you have dark angels

  • /me can´t wait for part 3

  • hm i think u can aktivate your genestealers the same turn when u reveal your blib without moving it before

  • want to watch part 3 ! gogo guys

  • i play space marines and want some terminators. do u think i should by space hulk just for the terminators. and paint them as my paint scheme. also just because that looks awesome

  • no i think you should change to an army that actuly requires a little skill to play with.

  • fuck u space marine are awesome

  • matt, a little tip. if you reveal a 3 genestealer blip you can choose to reveal the broodlord instead of three genestealers

  • hm i think not in this mission

  • Really digging this battle report! Come on, post part 3! :)

  • i must see the next vid !!!

  • Eager to see part 3! Thanks for battle report guys!

  • thats just nuts.... i love it...

    LFH

  • Tons of fun!

  • Want to see part 3. Got my copy and a nice change from 2nd Ed. Wish the over kill rule was put in the 3rd Ed. Great battle report would love to see more space hulk love in upcoming videos.

  • I have never played Warhammer before but I think I could get into this.

  • @7:47 mike rolled 2 4's so shouldn't have his gun jammed?

  • gun's only jam when the terminator's on overwatch, otherwise doubles don't do anything.

  • oh ok thanx

  • a stormbolter only jams on overwatch not when the terminators firing freely

  • The gun shot don't really sound like storm bolter. It actually sounded like m4. That just me though. I can't wait for part 3!

  • whats taking the third so long :(

  • i got a question if you win the game before you check to see if you used all your command points and you did cheat to win but you won before you had to cheack it and it turned out you did cheat do you still win the game or what?

  • If you cheated, you lose. It isn't a rule, but it's common sense.

  • I love the game but it's just not worth £50... I mean, I get the whole economics of it being "limited edition"; but how much did it really cost to make that? Some people even talk utter BS and say that GW is selling them AT A LOSS... Why can't Space Hulk just be a supported gametype? It seems to anchor in a lot of people who then move onto the "main" games...

  • Hmmmmm, when you think about it, it really is a good deal when thinking about miniatures and how much they usually cost. Just the price of two boxes of Terminators (about as much as you get in the box) is around the same price wise as the entire game. You also get a shitload of Stealers, and two rulebooks, dice, a lot of counters, floor tiles, doors, etc. Also, it costs a shit load to make the molds for these models (around 10000 dollars for one mould) so they need to get that money back.

  • Don't make it a limited edition run then :P

    You make a fair point; but then I saw someone else post a very valid point: They market Assault on Black Reach at £50... less than Space Hulk, and how much do you get IN THERE?

    I imagine the reason why the kits are "worse value" is because of the customisation options and models themselves being in a ton of different swappable bits.

    Are Space Hulk minis mostly in one bit like a Black Reach figure or more like a Termie kit? I am guessing the former?

  • Space Hulk minis are mostly one piece, but the detail is amazing, almost as good as the detail on metal models if not the same. The thing about Space Hulk is that you get more than just minis, you get dice, rulebooks, tons of counters and floor panels, and whole slew of other stuff. In Black Reach, you got minis, a rulebook, some dice and some cheap rulers (don't get me wrong though, that is all you need to play 40k). In Space Hulk you need all the extra stuff to play.

  • Yeah but Space Hulk doesn't have bases for the miniatures.

  • Yeah, but you can glue them to regular GW bases anyway, and they fit on perfectly...

  • I don't understand why the Blood Angels board Space Hulks; why not leave 'em be? :)

  • Because the Imperium doesn't make anything new, so they have to find it again.

  • Is it worth risking terminators for? :P

    Not exactly an unlimited supply of those :o

  • I never said it wasn't, thus why I don't even play Imperials :P

  • Heh I didn't mean to imply that :)

    Just that, if I wanted equipment... I'd let the Adeptus Mechanicus deal with it heh.

  • r they like normal sized terminators?

    so i can make them into models 4 the game

  • Yup, they're 40k scale and super detailed. Awesome models.

  • whens part 3 going up?

  • I might need to re-read the rules again on this point, but as a terminator, aren't they allowed to shoot while turning and moving (but no sustained fire bonus) for free? Like when the Terminator killed the one in front of him then turned around for the one at his back, the turn move that was used to face the stealer should have allowed a shot I believe.

  • got the rulebook right here, and yeah, that's right.

  • hm can u activate your genestealers when u reveal your blib the same turn ?

  • It honestly looks great. Me and a buddy are splitting on the initial box.. Hopefully we end up each having a set.. just locally our shop only has 2 boxes in.. lol

  • yeah i picked up my copy yesterday at warhammer world! Its soooooo fun!

  • Nice shirt Matt...

    Dave...make sure not to set in his backseat.....

  • nice matt you play this good

  • Pretty good so far guys.

  • I saw a copy of Space Hulk on sale at Animania yesterday from GoodGames Australia for like $200 or something, if I had the money on me I would of bought it but I didn't, I bet it has been sold by now though, didn't sell all day yesterday.

  • Comment removed

  • didnt he jam at 7:38 and they didnt use the points to un jam it?

  • no, he wasnt on overwatch

  • 4:53

    Yay Timmy's!

    Awesome stuff! I can't wait to get my copy! :D

  • watch the something in the basement video and you will find out wear the sounds come from

  • oh man! i just bought Space Hulk a few hours ago. It' just so much fun! i really think it's worth getting!

  • Interesting, it looks like a pretty close game here.

  • man this looks sick

  • I would love some more space hulk reports like this it's realy fun to watch

  • Wait is it possible for the terminators to win?

  • The sound effects are pretty cool. Where'd you get them?

  • im so lucky i saved one box on my gaming store =3

  • wow this game looks realy good

  • even though i cant buy it im still watching this!

  • I love these battle reports, especially for this Space Hulk. The other battle reports only show the aftermath, but this shows the carnage as it progresses. Much more interesting to watch.

  • Told you last part that the assault cannon would do some major damage. One thing though is he could of moved the two others behind the first Stealer since it blocks line of sight. Though it would be better to use the blips to keep up pressure. The advantage for the SM is that they can shoot and do NOT want to get into CC with the enemy..unless they have lighting claws but that is a different story. I honestly do hope for a seocnd Battle report for this game.

  • I love the assault cannon sound but why does the storm bolter sound like a fire cracker...plus its automatic? arn't they like single fire?

  • Nope a storm bolter is fully automatic. As long as you hold the trigger down it'll keep on spitting bullets out until the clip dries up.

  • How is it possible to add the sound effects to the vid without having to bo back to the console... can anyone help me?

  • adacity my firend aduacity

  • well,they would probably film it,edit the film through sony vegas or something like it,and during the editing process they would throw in some sound effects

  • That would be funny if the guy at 8:13 on the ladder got pulled through the vent by a genestealer.

  • very funny

  • The sound effects are a little too loud and distracts from the action. But otherwise It's a great preview while I wait for my copy to get here in the mail.

  • Great battle report!

  • this new edition blows

  • omfg you haver 2 do more vid like this lol it was fun 2 watch now im gone beg ma mum 2 give me money for this haha

  • When I played a demo game at my local GW, I couldn't do any thing diagonal, i.e. move or shot. So whats the deal?

  • WHAT THE HELL MIKE? WHERE ARE THE NECRONS? I NEED THE NECRONS? WHY ARE THERE NO NECRONS IN YOUR Video's? NECERONS,NECRONS,NECRONS.

  • I'm gonna love playing this...

    I am picking up the box i ordered tomorrow :3

  • 3:00

    i defenetly wanna make some orky rules :3

    orks like space hulks too :3

  • Hm....The only thing that seems so strange is how terminators seem to die so....easily in this game. Mybe its for game balance, or mybe its just me...lol

  • technically the game is totally balaned because the terminators have soo many rules to compensate for the stealers speed

  • Well, they have alot of firepower i see, but they also seem to pale in cc in comparison to 'stealers. I know its probably for game balance, but its like putting terminators in tau shoes>P. Why not try making the marine player just start with less of them, and adding more to the amount of dice they can get in cc? House rule maybe?

  • yah! I mean 1 terminator can kill a genestealer easy. BUT in this game one genestealer can shred the super human warrior and his huge power armor. that's just bs...

  • its not just you

  • If you played the video games of space hulk you would see that its part of the fear factor and works very well in making you freak out when you see them coming :P.

  • I could see someone adapting this for orks

  • Storm bolter kills on 6  strange.....

  • Technicaly its a 6 to hit. And the hit kills rather than rolling for wounds. Sustained fire can make it even easier to hit.
