So, who wants to start making rules for Plague Zombies and Inquisitorial Stormtroopers duking it out on a Space Hulk?


Ok, that's cooler than anything I've heard in a while. It'd be a very different game, with much slower xenos but even crappier imperials.

Gathering the Informations.

In trying to make my reply to you, Polonius, I just friended myself somehow.

But anyways...
Here's what I've been thinking about, in regards to it.
Restricting the Stormtroopers from Hellguns, given that they could potentially punch through the hull(although, having a depressurization set of rules to vent zombies through the hull? Could be awesome) and having them with flamers/shotguns as standard.

The Plague Zombies though, present a problem, as you can't just make shambling horrors with no real way to buff them against the ranged.

Hence my idea for a Broodlord equivalent that I've been kicking around. An Alpha Zombie of sorts, or perhaps a Renegade Psyker?

Anyone who wants to get in on the project would be very welcome

Is your surname really Calgar?
Not sure, but his Username Stands for Half Brother of Magnus Calgar

I always thought it stood for Hell Boy, Master of Ceremonies...

Holy Balls! Marine Corps?

His name is more fun when you don't know what it stands for.


I always assumed it was Hairy Bum Murdering Chocolate.

My friend put his termies on round bases with a dot to indicate facing, because he uses them in 40k too.

That's reasonable.
Another guy will try to remove some drops (BA icons) to represent DW Termies.
This is what I'm toying with, too.

It means whenever you lose at Space Hulk the Taco Bell dog will show up and tell you how bad you suck at Space Hulk.

Damnit, pay car insurance next week or buy Space Hulk? Damn life choices get in the way of fun.


--The whole concept of government granted and government regulated 'permits' and the accompanying government mandate for government approved firearms 'training' prior to being blessed by government with the privilege to carry arms in a government approved and regulated manner, flies directly in the face of the fundamental right to keep and bear arms.

Piercing the heavens

So, today I played my first session of Space Hulk. I wasn't blow away by the game itself or anything but I can see why it's such a fan-favourite. Though I don't quite get why they bother using Terminators since they suck at close combat and get shredded easily once a Genestealer reaches them
