Expanding Space Hulk

Game Workshop’s Space Hulk game is one of the best it’s every produced. Every game is fraught with tension, as the marines attempt to maximize their scarce action points in the face of an increasing onslaught of genestealers. With good players, this game is nearly always a near run thing. Unfortunately, like so many of their efforts, the Evil Empire hasn’t continued to support it. Expanding The Hulk is a website dedicated to continuing the Space Hulk game. It’s got rules for using many of the other races in the Games Workshop universe, including Chaos, Eldar, Dark Eldar, Necrons, and Orcs.
