SPACE HULK- The Bug Hunt Begins
I have been throwing around a few ideas involving the Space Hulk system. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the game itself our focus turned based with people playing the part of the marines on a "BUG" hunt. As with any turn based game, if you miss giving your character commands they will essentially stand idle leaving your comrades in arms vulnerable.
The role play action would follow the results of the play by PM portion dictating the results. Essentially your character has so many points to spend on actions per turn (move, shoot, etc) to represent his actions. If I am correct the FOG site has a way to simulate dice rolling. The game simply uses a number of 6 sided dice for combat
The game set on a map board made up of various corridor and room tiles which can be freely arranged and locked together like a jigsaw puzzle to represent the interior of derelict space ships. Players will control the actions of a single Space Marine, and together try to rid the vessel of an alien life form known as Genestealers.
The hidden play mechanics, from which it derives much of its playability and tension. The actual number of genestealers in play is hidden from the Marines because they came into play as "blips" which can represent 0-6 creatures. Blips are reveal their true numbers as a marine draws a line of site upon them. On the other hand, the Marine player has a number of "action points" available each turn which are used to respond to the threat.
The campaign contains five missions: Separate stories allowing players to use alternate characters when injury or death has taken them out of the action. There will be casualties.
I. Locate
II. Secure
III. Defence
IV. Raid
V. Eradication
The Premise
Thirteen marines are sent to investigate a space hulk that recently jumped out of the warp. It is highly possible that the ship is infested by creatures of chaos. The first squad must search for alien presence on the ship. Life forms must be located and reported before any other action...
Glory awaits the best!
