SPACE HULK

Space Hulk is a game of desperate conflict between the Imperial Space Marines and the fearsome alien
Genestealers. The action takes place on an ancient interstellar vessel known as a space hulk. Only one side
will survive this deadly conflict and emerge victorious.

THE MODELS
All the models consist of several different components that clip together. Select a model you want to
assemble and carefully remove all of the components from the frame. The models will better survive the
wear and tear of battle if you glue them together using plastic glue, and they will look considerably more
attractive if you paint them using acrylic paints from the Citadel range.

Each model clips together ready for play. You can glue the parts in place if you wish.

Refer to the pictures on the side of the

box or the back page of the Missions
Book when assembling your models.

FACING
During the game tne models are placed on the squa res The facing of a model is determined by the head of the
on the board to show their location. Each model must model - the direction that the model is looking is the
face one side of t he square it is occupying - it cannot direction it is facing. If the facing of a model is unclear,
face diagonally. simply tell your opponent which way the model is facing .

THE GAME BOARD

The corridors, junctions and rooms of the Space Hulk are
represented by the boa rd sections included with the game.
They are designed to 'jig' together to create a map on
which the mission is played. Each mission has a specific
map t hat shows how the board sections are set up.

To regulate movement, the board is divided into squares,

sometimes referred to as spaces. Each square can hold

the sand-filled timer included with the game.

--- HULK RULES
On-ceJ'ou have the board set up and the models deployed, as described in the Missions book, you are ready to
play. Every game of Space Hulk is played through in a series of turns - first the Space Marine player, and then
the Genestealer player. Each turn is broken down into a number of phases, for simplicity and ease of play.

At the start of their turn each player gains extra help -

the Space Marine player gains command points, which
allow his Space Marines to carry out extra actions during
the turn, whi le the Genestealer player can bring extra
blips and models into play.

The next thing the players do is to move and fight w ith

their models. The Genestealer player may take as long as
he likes over his turn , but the Space Marine player only
has a li mited time in which to complete his turn,
representing t he difficulty of fig hting aga inst creatures
with the lightni ng-fast reactions of the Genestealers.

SPACE MARINE TURN

Space Marine Command Phase
First the Space Marine player must see how many command points he has for the turn, as explained later. Then
the Genestealer player starts the timer.

Space Marine Action Phase

Next the Space Marine player may move, shoot and complete any other actions with each of the Space Marines
under his command. When the timer runs out t he Space Marin e Action phase ends immediately.

GENESTEALER TURN
Reinforcements Phase
At the start of his turn the Genestealer player sees how many reinforcement blips he gets t his turn and places
t hem beside the entry areas on the board, as explained later.

Genestealer Action Phase

The Genestealer player carries out actions with t he Genestealers and/or bl ips under his control.

MISSION STATUS PHASE

Once the Genestealers player has completed his Action phase, the turn ends with any necessary record keeping
in the Mission Status phase.
COM D PHASE
At the start of the game take the six command point counters and place them in a mug or similar opaque
container. Then, in the Command phase the Space Marine player draws a command point counter at random
from the container, to see how many command points he will have for the turn . After examining the counter
he places it face down on the '0' space on the command track of the mission status display board, without
showing it to the Genestealer player.

¥)\CTION PHASE
The bulk of the Space Hulk rules deal with how models and blips move and fight on the board . This is
_conducted in each player's Action phase. In the Action phase each model under a player's command
receives a number of action points that the player can use to have the model carry out actions.

ACTION POINTS
Duri ng the Action phase each model or blip has a certain
number of action points (AP) to spend on actions, as
shown in the cha rt below.

Space Marines are armed with storm bolters and
powerful heavy weapons. They may fire these at
Genestealer models and closed doors by taking a shoot
action . The cost of the action varies depending on the
weapon being used: it costs 1 AP to fire a storm bolter or

Genestealers have no ranged weaponry at all and must
rely on close assault to kill their enemies.

Exiting the Map

In several missions models need to exit the board through
an exit point shown on the deployment map. In order to
exit the map the model must 'move' into an imaginary
square off the board at the exit point A model that
leaves the map is out of play and may not return.

Doors
Armoured doors often divide the corridors and rooms of
a space hulk. These block lines of sight and movement
when closed, but when open have no effect on the
game. Doors start the game closed . To open or close a
door a model must be in a square adjacent to the door
and with the door in one of its three forward squa res. It
costs 1 AP to open or close a door.

CLOSE ASSAULT ACTIONS

Carrying no ranged weapons, the Genestealers must rely on
their claws to destroy the Space Marines, and a desperate
Space Marine may try to batter a Genestealer with his
power fist. They do this by taking a close assault action.

Taking a Close Assault Action

A model can take a close assault action to attack a target
in the square directly in front of them. It costs 1 AP to
take a close assault action once the model is in position .

Resolving Close Assault s

In a close assault both players roll a number of dice, and
then compare their scores. Genestealers roll three dice in
a close assault, and Space Marines roll just one. Compare
the single highest dice roll for each side, and whoever
has rolled higher has won the close assault. If the scores
are tied then neither side has won, and no damage is
done to either participant.
A model can only attack the square directly in front of it. In

Effects of Close Assault

killed and removed . If the defender w in s and is facing the

dice to destroy the door.

GUARD ACTIONS
A Space Marine can spend 2 APs to set hi mself on guard.
When on guard, the Space Marine is sta nding ready to
fight in close combat, wh ich can give him a vital
advantage if he is assaulted by a Genestea ler. Place a
guard counter next to the Space Marine to show that he
is on gua rd . If he carries out any other ad ion he loses the
guard counter. A Space Marine can either be on guard or
on overwatch, not both at t he same time.

A Space Marine that is on guard may roll his dice aga in in

MISSION STATUS PHASE
The Mission Status phase is used to check if either player has won, and to get things ready for the next turn.

new turn.
