About this game

Terminators versus Genestealers in the claustrophobic corridors of a derelict spacecraft. One player commands a small squad of elite Space Marines on deadly missions; the other unleashes endless waves of alien horrors. The tight corridors mean one wrong facing or one jammed bolter can end a Marine, while the Genestealer player swarms from every vent. Fast, brutal, and dripping with Warhammer 40K atmosphere. The third edition features gorgeous sculpted miniatures and a modular tile system for endless scenario variety.
