Looks great with the more muted colors and subtle shading. If only the game had playable rules  :'(

Awesome! 8)

One of my all-time favourite games, even if it is extremely simple.

I have hopes of playing it with my daughter soonish. I have also plans to replace every miniature in the game with more modern equivalents and 2 1/2D the game board(s).

I have even created sets of cards for 3 other chapters (Dark Angels, Space Wolves and my own Fiery Lions), so the marine players can now choose from 6 chapters, and am planning on getting some new alien opponents to fight too (like Tyranids and Dark Eldar).

Almost all required miniatures have been sourced; I really should start assembling and painting them one of these days... ::)

Please keep it up; this is inspiration for me to finally get cracking... :)
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

Lovely painting on those marines*.

*I have always had a liking for them , even if they do seem a little awkward these days.
I reckon I will have to get hold of a couple to add to a squad for variety.

Great job.

I have just recently finished painting my Heroquest game and have been plotting to get my Space Crusade done as well. You might just have given me the final push.
