Has anyone played the game that inspired Space Hulk Question It was published by Leading edge games, a US company.

I've seen it goes for 200 euros on e-bay! Rolling Eyes

Is this the game you're talking about?

Space Hulk looks more fun than this one.

Yup, I still have my copy  Smile

Excellent game, mine is a little banged up from constant play some 20odd years ago though.  Now I only bring it out when my brother comes down to visit.

Leading edge games also published an "evil dead III" game using the same rules (well almost) as Aliens. Cool

I have that game and the expansion. My friends and I liked it a lot because it was quick to set up, easy to teach and didn't take all night to finish.

I recall using other SciFi maps, like Star Frontiers and Star Trek deck plans. Great fun, though we changed the grenade effects, too easy to hurt the marines while they were far away. That's why they had body armor! Duh!

Can't believe it sells for ~$100 on ebay.
