Trying the "Space Marine Adventures: Tyranid Attack!" board game

[@Mind_of_MATT]

You place a tyranid on each of the numbered squares at set up. You had it right to start with. When you draw an infestation card that tells you to place one at one of the numbers that's already occupied, you place two tyranids on both sides of the occupied square. Check the book on it.

That makes sense. Thx!

“Teer-a-nids” = Tyranids. Yeah these are fun little games! I like the Space Hulk theme here, regardless that it plays similar to Labyrinth of the Necrons!

[@davidk6269]

Wow, this looks just like the Space Marine Adventures: Labyrinth of the Necrons game!!!!

[@Badbufon]

it is the same game with slight differences, like the art and some character stats.

[@davidk6269]

@@Badbufon Thanks. It is disappointing to me that this game has less art than the Necrons game. It looks like they GW went the cheap route.

[@Badbufon]

@@davidk6269 it seems like a step down compared to the Necrons one, yes, BUT, i like the minimalistic look and it fits in line with the rest of their games. so it doesn't bother me

[@davidk6269]

@@Badbufon I could see that. I actually wish that the first game was a Tyranid theme instead of Necron theme. I'm a huge Space Hulk fan, so I'm biased towards tyranids. ; )

It _does_ look just like Labrinth of the Necrons… which is weird. We got SpaceMarine the Board Game with Titus and a crap-ton of Tyranid Hormagants - for the same price. We’re talking over 20 plastic models (including the ripperswarms etc.). Titus alone is worth the $40 as you can only get him in this set (as well as the new set that GW sells in store - which has less Tyranids). I bought the actual Necrons to use for Labrinth of the Necrons (nice sales tactic, GW). But having both Leviathan (release set) and SM:the board game - I have way too many Tyranids than I can shake a stick at.
