In Space Hulk, you command five-man squads or large groups of warriors and can even control a single Marine.

But under that ugly exterior pulses an intelligence that is forever looking for race survival and procreation through the intrusive, horrifying ordeal of reproducing, not by mating, but by infecting other races to bear their offspring in a convoluted process that takes four generations to play itself out, always at the expense of the victim's race in the long run. The hideous Genestalkers are nightmare creatures, very cunning and seemingly made of teeth with insect-like claws at the ends of their four arms - claws that can tear and rend human flesh unmercifully. Usually managing to escape victorious despite being surrounded and outnumbered, these squads of Terminators have earned elite status and march to only two ideals: protection of their fellow warriors and stamping out the evil of the monstrous race threatening to destroy mankind from within through unspeakable acts. The Marines, also known as Terminators, have been patrolling Imperial space for literally hundreds of years, tracking down the abandoned space hulks the horrific Genestealer's use for transportation.įor centuries, the Marines have been consistently outnumbered whenever they board a derelict vessel commandeered by the Genestealers. Set in the Warhammer 40,000 Universe, Space Hulk puts you directly in the middle of a deadly battle between the Space Marine Warriors from the Dark Angel's Chapter of the Legiones Astartes and the insidious alien race known as the Genestealers.
