I'm Andreas, Community Manager at Full Control and I wanted to share some additional content about Space Hulk: Ascension Edition, which we announced in the beginning of August.
If you missed the announcement trailer, you can find it on here:
I wanted to share some more content from the game along the way, so I hope it's fine I make a post here:
For this new version we're adding Combi Weapons: Combi-Flamer, Combi-Plasma and a Combi-Melta
The Combi-Flamer will have 2 flame shots, which is good to have when there's a hoard of Genestealers coming at you.
The Combi-Plasma can only be wielded by sergeants and should only be used as last resort as it can backfire - Unless you like to gamble
The Combi-Melta pretty much destroys everything in its way but also has a very limited ammo.

If it's fine with the mods, I'll pop in and share more info once it's ready
Our CEO gave a n in-depth interview with Rock Paper Shotgun about Space Hulk and Space Hulk Ascension Edition, not too long ago so thought I would share it here as well.
Though I will say this- Flesh Hooks on Stealers vs Terminators: A terminator would just yank em in and smush their ugly faces- not the other way around lol
