New Ultramarines Chapter An all new Space Marine chapter, including a Terminator armed with Cyclone missile launcher. ![]() The standalone sequel to Space Hulk brings an all new and improved single-player experience for the turn-based strategy game. Set in the isolated corridors and tomb-like chambers of ancient vessels lost in the graveyard of space, players lead a small force of fearless Space Marine Terminators in a ferocious fight for survival against hordes of predatory, alien Genestealers. On hard difficulty, I assure you, you will sacrifice your rookies in desperate moves to support and protect your veterans. With customization and leveling comes a much deeper feeling of ownership and attachment to your every success and disaster. Squad customization and leveling is well implemented and a huge plus. The heavy flamer now has template options which are *excellent* - you can choose to shoot a long narrow stream of fire, a short wide one, or in-between. Melee is now way less of a near-certain death sentence, as it is possible to improve a Terminator’s melee skill via leveling and perks. Bolters overheat during extended firefights ala Incubation. Every mission completion will make you feel like a master of calculated risk, instead of a broken peasant berated by the shrieking laughter of the dice gods. Think XCom/Jagged Alliance 2 style trade-offs between accuracy and AP, and fine-tuned % chance to hit instead of D6 rolls. Tactical options are similarly improved - and vastly expanded. You can also encounter biomorphs with scythes that have multiple attacks or carapace for increased armor. ![]() ![]() Genestealer Variations Genestealers with Fleshhook, Feeder Tendril and Acid Maw biomorphs have been added to the game, each with their own special game mechanics. Space Hulk: Ascension is a 3D, digital, turn based, strategy game, which re-interprets the classic board game experience, and adds new RPG style mechanics, new weapons and missions, new enemy types, 3 playable chapters and loads of other new features to the single player experience.
