Warhammer 40k

A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil.
  2. No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
  3. Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
  4. No contemporary politics, no political debates. This is a space to enjoy the hobby and get away from the doomscrolling.

From PC version of Space Crusade (1992)

Warning: May introduce high levels of Yamaha OPL-2 Groove to your space hulk purging operations.

Composed by Barry Leitch (who also did a whole bunch of Commodore 64 soundtracks, can't you tell?)

Weird mental health admission thing:

When I read a review of Space Hulk, I was low key traumatised by it showing the tactical display, with one of the screens showing static, with just a caption "he's dead..."

A few years later, I got a copy of the game, loved the "FOR THE EMPRAH!" sample, and I found the map view hilarious. Oh no, the genestealer is approaching! *dying noises* oh the guy just disappeared. Kinda took the edge off it.

I should try playing the game again, but I hear it's balls hard (Rory Fingers quote), and I think the CD-ROM is somewhere deep in the Pile.
