Let’s play SPACE HULK | Games Workshop’s best board game

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มิ.ย. 2024
- Man Versus Alien In Desperate Battle! The tagline says it all. What a fantastic game. This particular edition is the 4th version from 2014.
Space Hulk has been out of print for almost a decade, and needless to say, we’d love to see a rerelease! No, not a Kill Team or a Boarding Actions “reimagining”, just… Space Hulk.
THE PLAYERS
Space Marines: Mikey from @HellstormWargaming
Genestealers: Steve from Little Plastic People

Hope you enjoyed this one-off "let's play" video! Let us know if you want to see more like this. By the way, here are some rules that the dudes didn't get quite right, just in case you were wondering:
- The Terminators can't jam during their action phase, only in overwatch. They ended up wasting an action point clearing a jam that would have never happened.
- Sustained Fire only comes into effect if you remain stationary. A couple of times, Mikey used the rule while moving and shooting.
- Mikey forgot the +1 to the Librarian gets to his close combat attacks, so wasted a couple of Psi-points boosting his beyond what was required.
- Both players accidentally played a double turn 5, so the Genestealers would have started receiving 3 blips in the reinforcement phase 1 turn before they did.
Even given those small mistakes, I don't think it would have changed the outcome much. What a brutal game!
also I think Terminators too can move diagonally in front of them for 1 action. Many times during the game we had Terminators do unnecessary turning actions.
Yeah, Mikey was sadly screwed as soon as those first two marines bit the dust.
Still - fun times 🤪
You tuber invitational spacehulk occasional series maybe?
first GW board game I ever bought back in the 90s and have bought every iteration since. By far my favorite
It looks like the terminators only rolled one command point in turn seven (in the "lost footage" at 23:23), but used two (24:18), which the intro said was an instant loss (1:24).
Also I'll add that the timer is supposed to be 3 minutes (thought sand timers are notoriously not accurate).
I add that because if your set is like my set, the sand clumped up into a solid a long time ago. lol
Space Hulk being GW's best board game is less of an opinion and more of an observable and commonly accepted scientific law. Can't wait to see the whole vid!
Although if one argues that Hero Quest (original) is a GW game…
Space Hulk is great but you forgot Blood Bowl.
Or Space Crusade!
Mordheim
It’s good but bloodbowl is better.
Are you sure this is just a fun one-off? Because this being a series would be very cool
I imagine if this video does well it will become. This is probs just to test the waters
There are 12 different missions in the box. About 4 or 5 of them are pretty well balanced. A lot of them can be fixed with minor tweaks to the rules. This mission is actually usually pretty easy for the Terminator player, but only if they know what they're doing LOL.
I don't think I've ever seen the terminators lose this mission before in any of the games I've played.
Doubles only jam if the Marine is firing on overwatch in the Genestealers' turn. Those two Marine turn "jams" shouldn't have been jams. That totally would have turned the game, honest... Steve never would have stood a chance! 🤣
I thought that was the case.
BEHZINGHA THIS DOOR.
I got things wrong but i blame Steve and his insitence to use a timer on me 👀
I love this game, I wish we could play more! (Go on Guy, how many likes on the video for a follow up 😘)
1 like.
Oh, WOULD YOU LOOK AT THAT?!
Sure, its always Steve's fault...
We need to feed Steve to Kirby
*chomp*
Where did you find those dice, in a toilet?
In the grim darkness of the 41st millennium, there is only doors
Space Hulk got me into 40k ages ago. Needless to say, I was all for the 10th edition box.
Man those one hit kills make for a tense game. Playing gene stealers looks like a pretty stress free experience while every roll as the terminators felt so dire. Very fun to see a GW game that doesn’t require making a million choices before you can even play the game.
One of my biggest regrets is selling my copy of 1st edition Space Hulk without actually playing it!!
The best version of the game
*YOU DID WHAT*
I think I speak for everyone when I say "WE WANT MORE, WE WANT MORE"
Man, they really need to release Space Hulk again.
With 'nids as 10th editions chosen antagonist and new Terminators in the starter box, I have my fingers crossed!
To this day i don't understand why aren't they re-releaseing it. They don't want our money apparently.
@@LetsKeepThePeace should make it a permanent box for sale I'm sure it will constantly sell out either way lol
When 3rd edition released in 2009 it was the first board game box to break the USD 100 mark that I remember. It became a a harbinger of things to come. Knowing GW if a new edition comes out they will price it at USD 200.
I guess maybe GW is just sticking to having ppl get leviathan, and the new 10th edition stuff and having ppl use the boarding actions terrain set to do similar scenarios like in Space Hulk and Space Crusade but obviously it's not the same exact game mechanics😐 I still hope they will release a new version! Maybe a new version could have like boss fights! I've always been fascinated by Space Hulk but never owned it myself and it's a dilemma for me if I should buy an expensive preowned version online of the space hulk they are playing in the video or wait and see if GW comes out with a revamp.
I’d love to see a tutorial for that Terminator scheme. It seems more advanced than your regular output but I’d still love to see how it’s done even if I can’t do it.
Same! I want to see how Steve did it. I think he's actually just a wizard.
Yup, I was eyeing those too. The genestealers not so much though.
@@ttaibe Let's be honest, out of everyone involved here, Guy is probably the best at painting cool Genestealers. He's got the videos to prove it! (If anyone has proof to the contrary, please share with the class. I wanna look at cool alien minis!)
@@geoffreyprecht2410 I never said , or meant to imply, that they are painted badly. Just that i don't like that colour scheme.
As if my day couldn’t get better! The best warhammer game being played by the best warhammer youtuber!
I agree, Hellstorm Mikey is the best Warhammer TH-camr ;)
Wonderful players, a delightfully painted set, and the lighting really enhanced the atmosphere of this game! Great all around!
RIP Barry Bigclaws, taken too soon!
Thanks to everyone involved for a very entertaining game!
I'm not sure if it's a contender for GW's best board game, but I've always been a bit fascinated by Warhammer Quest ... one of my first issues of White Dwarf had a big article celebrating its second birthday, and to a young lad whose only RPG experience at that point was the Fighting Fantasy gamebooks, it seemed magnificent. If anyone happens to know of any good TH-camrs (or other varieties of Interneteers) who actually still play Quest, please let me know!
"stuff you'd like to see improved"
yeah, mikey's dice rolls!
fair
Bloody love this game (the edit isn't bad either 😉). It was so much fun to play Mikey in a game I could actually compete in (if only because its almost impossible for the marine player to win).
If you think it’s hard for the SpaceMarine to win in SpaceHulk? you should try GWs Lost Patrol!
I don’t have a huge experience of playing GW games but I have always loved Space Hulk and this video shows most of the reasons why. It has a simple rules set which allows players to focus on strategy as opposed to thumbing through pages and pages of rule books and codices. It’s incredibly tactical - although the general perception is that the odds are always stacked against the marines, in my experience, there is always a way for them to win if they deploy their squad(s) correctly and a few dice rolls go their way. The board looks amazing and, most importantly, it’s great fun to play. Thanks so much for the video Guy and co. I really enjoyed it.
GW really needs to make this an evergreen game
That or someone needs to make a spiritual sequel
Right? I was really expecting between boarding patrols and 10th edition being terminators and termigaunts, that we’d be getting a re-release of space hulk
It took me a long time to get round to watching this as Space Hulk makes me feel ANXIOUS!
Thankfully the merry gayety of your players provided just the salve I needed to prevent the tension overwhelming me and I was kept hooked through to the end.
What a cracking match - Space Hulk really is unforgivingly relentless!
Years ago our local war games club play tested the original space hulk and we were in the credits. It was all card floor plans. We suggested stand up doors. It’s so great to see it develop and still around.
Never seen someone so talented at rolling 1s
Space Hulk is The classic GW game, it's the only one I still have. I have 3rd edition but the Genestealer miniatures are first edition because they're still the best Genestealer miniatures.
Played with a friend the other night and they'd never played before and didn't really know anything about 40K either and they were loving it.
Ooof.... the Emperor did not protect!
Great game, gang! That took me back on a nostalgia trip.
Would LOVE to see more actual gaming on this here favorite channel of mine. This was great and fun to watch and I feel like you really caught the playful atmosphere when friends are playing together. Great video Guy, keep up the good work:D
Some of my fondest gaming memories are of playing first edition Space Hulk with my brother . It is definitely Games Workshop/ Warhammer's best game ever .
Man, I've wanted to play Space Hulk for years. Great video
Wow wow wow, what an amazingly well put together video. Super easy to follow for someone who has never played the game, great personalities and engaging. One more wow for good measure
Brilliant playthrough! If I didn't already own Space Hulk, this would make me want to get it!? Love Space Hulk
this was a great video, really fun to see people play these smaller games with the incredibly painted minis. hope to see more of this king of content.
You should try Heroquest (1990) in this format! make a series on it.
Yes! Would be fun to see those minitures getting painted up too
loved your setup for the game, super immersive and also clear to the viewer! Great editing as always as well
Love the banter, love the Hellstorm collab and love a bit of Steve!
Gorgeously painted minis!
Love the terminators paint job.
That was awesome! I've wanted to try Space Hulk and this vid has made me psyched to pick it up finally
More please! This is the first time in a long time I actually finished a battle report type video. I thoroughly enjoyed this. Explaining the rules and getting it out of the way first, was a good shout.
Anyone remember tyranid attack it was like space hulk except you took a squad of Terminators onboard a tyranid bioship and you were blowing up its organs. I always thought it would be so cool to make a 3D board game and have all the organs 3D and everything
Absolutely loved this! First time ive seen Space Hulk played in a long time and its juat as fun as I rememeber it! Love the content, as always. Nice to Steve and Mikey as well. Keep bringing the fun!
This was great. Love when you have Mikey on! Him and Steve always bring great vibes.
"gently rubs the genestealer's back" now that's a reference I enjoy
That was awesome! I have that game tucked away in my closet and now I want to bust it out and play. Please play another mission/game when you can I would like to watch another match. It really helps to learn how to play by watching a game played out since I don't have anyone to teach me how to play.
Space Hulk!! Best GW board game that they won't sell to us! Thanks for the SH content Guy. I'd love to see more.
That was such a fun video 😊 always have a blast playing this with friends
You guys should definitely do this again with your own missions and layouts 🤘🏽
this was really fun to watch, hoping there is more to come !!!
Thanks for this! I have the video game version of this and never really got into it but after watching this I decided to try again and it's a blast - plays just like the board game.
Loved it! Would love to watch y’all run it back!
"friendly" game of Space Hulk :)
This game was always good. At the time (late 90's) I thought it'd be interesting to see what'd happen if we had more factions. Then of course we got Kill Team boarding actions... maybe careful what you wish for!
This was a great re-intro for me. Thanks!
We need more space hulk contents on TH-cam
Love Space Hulk and really enjoyed this vid. Thanks for sharing it.
I must admit, this was quite fun to watch. ^^ I enjoyed the beginner-friendliness as well, even while having owned the game for many years.
Please please more of these, that video was so much fun!!! 😊
Would love to see more videos like this! Keep up the great content!
This was awesome to watch! Would love to see more
Awesome video, Guy. Cheers!
Oh you definitely need to do more of these. These are fun and fast games - and I still have all of the different SH editions
Its 2 am in a warehouse in seattle and im watching this now instead of anything else i guess. good work guy love the space hulk
This was honestly so much fun, that ending had me in stitches 😂
Loved this.Please do all the missions! Awesome stuff and great job everyone. What a great game
FYI the box you were showing at the start was the 3rd edition from 2009. 4th in 2014 added boarding torpedoes board piece and different graphic around 'SPACEHULK'
Really enjoyed this. Great to see people having a good time. Tough day for the marines though!
I don't really comment on videos very much at all, but I wanted to let you know how fun this was to watch
I usually can't sit through battle reports but I somehow made it through this entire game. Made me want to pick up Space Hulk. Thanks!
Those terminators are gorgeous. Love seeing his work on the table. :)
Loved it man! Great as always
Cool to see space hulk being played out, can't wait for the rest of the battle arena games now! Keep up the good work!
Loved the video! I never played Space Hulk or knew what the game was, only heard of it in references to other Warhammer stuff. That was an excellent overview and now I want to play it.
Great video as always, guy! Cheers from America!
Space Hulk is the best, no question. I hope your video renews interest in the game. GW did try something similar with The Horus Heresy Betrayal At Calth (maybe on a video on that) but unfortunately it was not well promoted and most people purchased it for the models and never played the game. It would be fun to see you try 1st edition Space Hulk as its very different rules to the 4th edition that you played.
Just what I needed to motivate me to get my spcae hulk copy sorted and ready to play. This looked like a lot of fun!
The video game of this in the 90s had me hooked, although our PC was so weak that it'd run excruciatingly slow - which made it really tense and also easier to react to genestealers!
Please play more of this for the channel!
I’d love to see more fun let’s play like this one. The players were very funny
I remember playing space hulk on my spectrum as a kid… loved it
Loved this video! More Space Hulk, please! Need to figure out some better Space Marine Strategies for our play. Great sportsmanship too.
I loved it. Please bring more of this happy and fun gaming moments to channel.
I’ve only ever played videogame interpretations of Space Hulk, starting with the MS Dos game back in the early 90s, with my favourite being the 3DO (also PSOne and Saturn) game.
If Games Workshop released a new board game I’d buy it in a heartbeat!
I would love to see more Space Hulk videos on the channel. I used to own the 4th edition but after two years of owning it I never found anyone to play with, so I sold it on as I couldn't justify the money or the space it took up. I very much enjoy playing the Space Hulk (2013) and Space Hulk: Tactics video game adaptations.
More Space Hulk! Would love to see a Blackstone Fortress play through
Just because no 40k vid is incomplete without some rules lawyering… 😂
Marines can move diagonally as long as one of the opposing diagonal squares is empty.
They can’t sidestep.
I’d like to vote for more space hulk 🙋🏻♂️
So the crazy flamer dance steps mikey makes at the end of turn 5 he could do in 2 ap - diagonal step forwards right and 90 turn right.
Still crazy dance moves ftw.
The joy you guys had playing this was great. Nice quick and fun game.
Great great video, loved it!
This is absolutely fantastic and it would be very, very cool if you did a similarly edited and commented series for other specialist games (especially Blood Bowl *cough cough*), because there are so few watchable match reports for tabletop games out there. I really appreciate the editing and attention to detail. Keep up the good work.
Beautiful video! I really like how you painted the miniatures and the Terminators paint scheme 👌👌🤩
I think that Lightning Claw Terminator was... what's the opposite of an MVP? Hides behind his mates the entire game, then charges forth and dies to a single Genestealer. _"And they shall know no fear"_ indeed!
Loved this. Great fun!
I have the boxed set so many years now and I want to repaint all the minis. I would love to see all content you can make for space hulk especially mission reports
Space Hulk and Adeptus Titanicus were my introduction to 40K back in the early 90s. So many great memories!
love it, the paintjobs too
I bought into the Boarding Actions terrain set and Arks of Omen series (along with relevant White Dwarf issues) all in favor of trying to make my own Space Hulk board game. Even located the old rules, and then finally found me some Genestealers along with acquiring an eBay purchase of the new Terminators from Leviathan. All I'm missing is carboard cutouts now.
But if HOLY EMPEROR if GW ever decided to do a refresh of actual Space Hulk, I would fork the money over in a heartbeat. I freaking love this set up for a board game, and can't get enough of it!
Would love to see more of you having fun. We live vicariously through you ;)
more please, its just farking US reality style bat reps out there. this is chill is engaging
Wow - looks insanely good fun. I like the mechanics I'm seeing, too. I'd adapt it, but a re-release would deffo have my attention.
Great video! Very entertaining to watch. I do have a copy of Space Hulk somewhere....!😊
Seems like a very tough game for the terminators!
That's what I was about to say, how are terminators supposed to win ?
@@Beedji in the grim darkness of the far future, they don't :D
Yep, by turn 7 they look overwhelmed. Surely the Terminators can’t roll enough to win.
@@notmenotme614 Rolling loads of 1s really didn't help the space marines...
The marine player did play quite badly, but it is supposed to be hard.
Could watch Space Hulk games all day! Please do more 🙏🏻 nice paint job on the terminators too 👍🏻
I've never watched Space Hulk in action, and seriously, it was so fun, that I really want a whole series of this. I've even started to looking for it but... I guess, it's easier to find Necronomicon in your closet than this.
Yeah no, we need the series guy🤩 awesome video and game.
I loved thiss we need MOREE
Bloody loved this! More please!
Space hulk looks fun. I can’t help but imagine how it would feel to play it on/with the Space Hulk Kill Team terrain set
I would love to see more stuff like this. Its really fun!
