Space Hulk

DEATH ANGEL

A cooperative card game in the setting of the Warhammer 40.000 universe, players embody Space Marines of the Blood Angels unit and are charged to cleanse a Space Hulk from the invasion of extraterrestrial symbionts, all players win or lose together.

Starting from a location card, players move around a display of cards which was prepared by exactly following instructions in the rules. Aim of the game for the Space Marines is to reach the last location card in the display and to implement the victory condition on that card or erase all symbionts in the formation and both signal stacks at the last location. When all Space Marines die earlier than that all have lost together. Space Marines cannot leave their formation – if a Marine dies the formation must be shifted to close the gap. Movement is executed within the formation, advancing moves the formation to a new location.

You play several rounds and each of the rounds consists of phases following each other: Choice of action with action card – there are support, attack and movement + activating, implementing of action in ascending order of numbers on the cards chosen, attack of each symbiont swarm on each marine with which is in combat, event, drawn and implement by the active player of the lowest action card, he alone decides on all instinct reactions. Then the symbols on the card are implemented one after the other, they make new symbionts appear or move symbionts already present.

Drastic and unambiguous, there is not one peaceful moment in this cooperation, this is a game only for fans of the genre and the Warhammer universe, compact with copious rules.
