[westgoten]

WAAAAAAARGH!!! *ratatatat*

Awsome!

[shagriml]

The in-game music is friggin' awesome, one of the best game tunes ever! Barry Leitch rocks.

[SuperMegaLoser]

in today's standards, the theme would be something like imperial chanting.

[WeHaveExplosive]

Those were the days, home from school, play Space Crusade and HeroQuest until forced to go to bed :-)

[soulesswolves]

you can get this again using dos box or if you want the amiga one an emlulator

[volvictonicwater]

@soulesswolves I use DosBox but have mouse problems with it >< Any idea how to fix it?

[Luhaja]

@volvictonicwater get an amiga emulator :)

[Cazzerpot]

@volvictonicwater if you go into fullscreen then out of fullscreen, it should fix. One of the Fbuttons. F9 maybe. Just press those until it works.

[LittleZappey]

this music rules

[ollieduracell]

i played this game so much as a kid, pulled my amiga out to play it again, graphics doesnt affect the gameplay

[ToXeye]

"Some sounds are missing" - I agree, I used to be unable to make the game work in WinUAE so all I got was the awesome intro music in 100% detail. Yay! A memory, still, ever since. I never got to play the game on Amiga before ours was trashed.

[saaliistaja]

Yeah, they don't seem to make game music with this kind of straight kick-butt attitude these days. I'm grateful I played most of my games in the 90's and late 80's. The newest HD-surround sound-games are awesome, no doubt about that, but just too much for me. I'm proud to have played Mega Man and Final Fantasy III and stuff like that when they came out :)

[LamorakVXR]

yeah I'm sure even the names were based on those. Ya know like the blood angels :)

[graveheart1138]

That in game music is still to this day off the scale brilliant!!! I really miss the computer game music from those times!!

[yasswah]

Awesome game! Don't the characters resemble The Space Marine race from War Hammer 40K series?

[geordiekimbo2]

theres a good reason for that...

[MiRyRE]

I thought they are?

[jayhoop82]

@yasswah Because they are?

[DamoclesAlpha]

@yasswah I have been under impression that Space Crusade takes place in the WH40K universe (and Hero Quest in the original Warhammer setting). Besides, the original board game was published by Games Workshop, which is also the developer and publisher of Warhammer 40.000.

[yasswah]

@DamoclesAlpha Thanks for clearing this out. I used to play Space Crusade and Hero Quest on my Amiga in the early 90's. Really miss those times.

[2LTDarcius]

@yasswah SC from my understanding was the rename giving for space hulk. to avoid law suits at the time. its 100% based on the early WH40k game and space hulk.

[garfy79]

@2LTDarcius No renaming involved. Space crusade was produced more for the mainstream whereas Space Hulk was a tad more specialised. Games Workshop own both so they really had no need to worry about suing themselves.

[morderca95]

you just need amiga 500+ to play :D

[sammybop7]

how do u play this? i downloaded it for DOSBox but theres no instructions or tutorial. help!

[RolyPablo]

@sammybop7 You just have to select a mission... the first one is just kill the Dreadnought. Move around the board and fight things... highest number wins. Basic game but difficult to survive full missions sometimes.

[KingPadboy]

This was my favourite ever game on the Amiga, I think i'd even put it infront of my much loved Sensible World Of Soccer too, much fun had with my dad playing this as I grew up. I was always the Blue team and my dad was always the red team, Any chance if anyone knows if this is still available on the PC, I'm running XP

I don't want to pay for it either, any help is apprciated.I loved the game that much that I bought the Boardgame Those were the best days of my computing life without doubt!

[019208237]

I loved this game.

[asedcopf]

pizza , coke and a cupple frends, played this for hours :D

[gilthanas666]

Where are those good times??!!!!!

[OJR5]

Fantastic, thanks for uploading such a comprehensive soundtrack for this classic game. One suggestion for improvement, if possible, would be to include screens from the game for the victory / defeat tracks :-)

[bakalla00]

I used to play this a lot on my Amiga and didn't know that it had any music in it, until i accidentily hit the button that turned on the music! I believe it was F10 or F11 that turned the music on and i remember the first time i heard it and thought: "what the hell is this, it's soooooooooo good, too good to be true" :)

[Dzugoslav]

I love this game. Thx man, old school amiga games rulezz!

[zcherus]

word! those were the days.

(srbija?)

[GAF1987]

WOW pure awesomeness! Thanks man, I remember this game so well! 5/5

[grishandlarn]

Thank you man! Great game and great tune! Amiga Forever!

Peace.

[robj8222221]

[revcom301]

5 stars & favourited. Top stuff. Gears of War 3 should use that intro theme @ 0:20-3:30!

[Mii85]

I used to play this on my Amiga. Good times.

[zcherus]

we played it until our eyes bled, then some more...

[KooKooBoomBoom]
