You mean proxying in Eldar/Ork models or playing with a new rule set to cover their weapons and/or stats?


I could see Eldar standing in for the genestealers. Harlequins a/o howling banshees. No shooting to speak of, blenders of whirling death in CC, but put a few good bolter rounds into them and they disintegrate into a lingering cloud of gore.

Some choppa boyz could fill a similar role for orcs. Less with the CC skills, more of the endless horde. But close enough for play. And orcs and space hulks have a long history together, being a popular way to hitch a ride to the next scrap.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637412/7623111.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637412/7623111.page GMT Has anyone ever tried playing space hulk with something besides marines?
Also I didn't think of subbing the Genestealers out but that is a great idea too.

I just mean if you were to try and use something more exotic like Eldar D-cannons/scythes, Ork Tankbustas etc, you'd have to write custom rules and make sure they're balanced enough.

I've never tried them, but rules for using Eldar and Imperial Guard were published in Citadel Journal.


A google search found that Citadel Journal #5 had Eldar rules for Space Hulk from GW.

An ebay search turned up this!

Best of luck!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637412/7623218.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637412/7623218.page GMT Has anyone ever tried playing space hulk with something besides marines?

Oh definitely a way to sub in other factions and fun idea to do so.

Yeah that'd be awesome, but I don't trust my hombrew chops enough for that. A buddy of mine has space hulk and I'm looking for more ways to use it, besides just Marines vs nids which would get dull after a while. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637412/7623251.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/637412/7623251.page GMT
