paulJam Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 so i'm making a space hulk set (here) and this is requiring a lot of printing which takes a while. in order to keep motivated i'm aiming to produce enough segments to actually play a 'proper' game, rather than just a couple of corridors and a "T" junction. With that in mind i put together a mission with a smaller than normal map so i have an easier goal (for printing). it uses just standard pieces (i.e. not extras/more than you'd get in the standard box set). so the question is... does anyone have their own small map, homebrew missions they could recommend? below is a list of ones i've made and i'd be happy to add links anyone elses mission... Mission 01 Mission 02 Mission 03 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311540-space-hulk-small-map-homebrew-missions/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Looks interesting - the first few turns could be tricky, depending on how the blips turn out. Your victory conditions are a bit off. By the end of the game, there will have been 7 marines in play. That means the marines can have three in the final room (marine victory) whilst the stealers can also have killed three or four marines (stealer victory)...

[edit] later... seems to play quite well. later still.... the middle when you get a build up of GS makes for some decent tension.... plus having so few dudes to lose. SH rocks my power armored socks.

paulJam Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 Space Hulk Mission 01 - paulJam(note re map, on my 3d printed tiles the doors count as a square of distance as they're big, need to adjust for regular/official board) [edit: amendment to victory conditions: terminators must get 5 models (of 7) to the exit room.... so genestealers kill 3 denies victory][edit: map amended slightly, making the genestealer entry a bit closer] Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311540-space-hulk-small-map-homebrew-missions/#findComment-4138853 Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulJam Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 Space Hulk Mission 02 - paulJam [edit: added second mission, as yet untested. and the 'blocking' is within 6 squares of the gs entry points][edit: test played the 2nd mission. surprised me that it was more difficult for GS. provided the sm can keep overwatch concentration the GS have no option but to charge with so little room. considering extending the GS entry corridors and making the blocking area further down as blocking is not overly difficult. not bad though. cramped but fun.] Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311540-space-hulk-small-map-homebrew-missions/#findComment-4138859 Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulJam Posted August 5, 2015 Author Share Posted August 5, 2015 Space Hulk Mission 03 - paulJam [edit: mission 3 untested as yet. might need to shorten the map as it takes just under 12 turns to get that far (including open doors, and excluding any fighting, and excluding command points)][edit: test played the 3rd mission. was ok. the linear aspect stands out.][edit: 3rd mission map amended, upping the GS force and added extra T segment before final objective] Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/311540-space-hulk-small-map-homebrew-missions/#findComment-4138860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
