Man Versus Alien in Desperate Battle
 
SPACE HULK.

http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/co...00037a&start=2

I bought this on Friday, played my friend today, it's awesome. God damn expensive though.

I love boardgames and this is one of the best that I have played. The pieces look fantastic, and it's quite in depth.

Anyone else seen it, interested in it, or played the original?

I haven't been much of a fan of GW lately. They got rid of nearly all the stores in MA, and they converted their US website from a nice community website to just a store.

I remember the old Space Hulk game on Sega Saturn. :X

Games Workshop is a rip off. You pay 40 bucks to get three or four dollars worth of plastic miniatures.

Most things are a rip off. Nike sells you three or four dollars worth of plastic and rubber for over a hundred dollars. Anyway, it's a hobby, it's what you do with the cheap pile of plastic. I'm not defending Games Workshop, I'm just saying that all toy companies are the same.

My friend got it and I played with him. It's got simple play and solid rules. Honestly, it's freakin' amazing.

I own the original board game. The paint on my pieces looks like shit these days though and I have no one to play with. :(

Painting these things seems like it's god damn impossible. I'd like to, but I don't think I have the time or the skill. Post some pictures of your old ones if you want.

Dimnos Sep 14th, 2009 10:45 AM

If you get some fine tipped brushes its really not as hard to paint them as you might think. It does take all freaking day though. :( Ill see about digging it out tonight and take some pictures but like I said they look like shit these days.
