Space hulk is back! Now for those of you who aren't complete geeks and probably get out once in a while your probably wondering what Space Hulk is. Well it's a board game between the good guys ( the space Marines and the bad guys Genestealers. The genestealers inhabiate space hulks, collections of lost space craft that are pulled together. If the genestealers reach a human world they will enslave the population and surfice to say the end result isn't good for the humans.
Simply bombarding the hulks isn't a option, many continue long lost technological secrets which man of the 41st millenium are desperate to recover. Enter the Space marines, genetically engineered warriors, they only send their finest warriors clad in their heavist terminator armour to clear the hulks.
But a hulk is a nightmarish maze and the terminators will have to face the genestealers, bio engineered killing machines who can punch through armour with their claws like it was paper in close quarter fighting (think the fighting from the aliens film). Man meets alien in a desperate combat that will decide the fate of a world!
Yes, I know I'm getting stupidly excited over a boardgame but I had the first edition and this new edition seems like it will a lot of fun.
So asides from that and spending most of the day wishing that the 5th September will get her much quicker I haven't been up too much, just taking it easy basically. Oh and stopping Owen from trying to 'bury' his new bone. As he doesn't go in the garden he's being very creative. We've already had to rescue the bone from the gap between the cushions on the settee, from behind the TV and from the laundry basket. But my favourite had to be when he pulling up the rug we have in the lounge, put the bone down, put the rug back and then pulled a stack of dvds down then pushed the dvds over his bone before casually walking out of the room trying to look innocent whilst Grumpy and I looked on more then a little bit surprised.
anyway,
Later folks!
