Space Hulk (TBS)

[Lulgrim]

I suppose we can have a thread about this as well.

Based on the best-selling board game and set in the Warhammer 40,000 universe, Space Hulk is a 3D digital turn based strategy game that recreates the classic claustrophobic board game experience for single player and multiplayer cross-platform play between PC, Mac and on iOS.

Space Hulk is set in the isolated corridors and tomb-like chambers of an ancient vessel lost in the graveyard of space. Players lead a small army of fearless Space Marine Terminators to battle in a ferocious fight for survival against hordes of predatory alien Genestealers.

The main features are

• Blood Angel terminator squad
• Fearsome Genestealers with challenging AI
• Thematic 3d environment
• Single player campaign based on the "Sin of Damnation" hulk
• New coop multiplayer levels against the Genestealer AI
• Multiplayer head-to-head recreating the board game experience against a friend
• Cross platform multiplayer between PC, Mac and iOS
• Level editor with ability to share creations
• Game expansions in the future as DLC

Hopeful for this one. These guys are also making the next Jagged Alliance game, which you can go and support if you liked those titles. The Kickstarter was successful but you can still pledge through PayPal.

In multiplayer, they should make it so that one player contols the 'Nids, not the AI. As we know, AIs think VERY differently from humans.

pretty sure that is an option in multiplayer if you read the article

anyone else preordering this?

idk, it depends. i currently have alien assault http://www.teardown.se which appears to use the space hulk rules so i don't feel compelled to get it. tbh, i want a first person shooter version of space hulk, not necessarily with terminators.

But this is 3d and stuffs :p

Y you never shared that site before?!
It's pretty much Space Hulk but named differently...
It's like SC all over again.

I guess Natural Selection 2 and Alien Swarm are as close as it can get.
