Well it looks like the Mystery Box was Space Hulk in the end. And I have ordered a copy because it looks so good!
For those of you who haven't been in the hobby long, Space Hulk was a game developed by GW back in the 90's and basicly is about Space Marine Terminators battling against Genestealers on abandoned Spaceships known as Hulks. The Space Marines would board the Hulks looking for Technology or other valuable wonders, and one of the common creatures encounted of a Hulk are Genestealers.
As you can see you get a fair bit of kit in the box for the hefty £60 price tag. A lot of people may bawlk at the price considering what you get in it, but for an 'veteran' gamer it's a nice reminder of gentler times when I was a youngling. I'm already getting ideas about building up custom board pieces and rules to allow for variants involving Orks and Chaos Marines.
Anyway, Order now if you want a copy as it is a limited edition run!
