Description

Space Hulk is a game of intense tactical combat between Imperial Space Marines and deadly alien creatures known as Genestealers, set on derelict space vessels. Players take turns using action points and dice rolling to resolve battles, with the marines facing off against endless hordes of Genestealers. The goal is to complete missions within their parameters, or risk everything in the attempt. With a playtime of 90 minutes, Space Hulk offers a challenging and immersive experience for two players. The game's normal complexity makes it accessible to fans of board games, and its unique mechanics, including modular board and variable player powers, add to the excitement. First published in 1996, this second edition of the game builds on the original, with updated rules and new missions to test players' skills.
