When I use to play Space Crusade as a young'n, I wondered why the game board is square, when the Space hulk is shaped like this:



So I made my own board that was shaped like the hulk. (this was made almost 20 years ago when I was about 13-14years old on a black n white 9pin dot matrix printer, on coloured paper with crayon used for weathering, stuck down onto card from a Corn Flakes box.)





Features:
- It has a small ship/escape pod in the top right corner, for use with missions like "docking claw jammed, run to escape pod to get off hulk."

- control room up front: "get marine into control room to gain ability to open and close any doors."

- Engine room up the back with blue fuel tanks and red oxygen tanks: "can only use melee weapons in engine room to avoid accidental detonation of fuel and destruction of hulk." or mission like: "set timed explosive in engine room to destroy hulk and make get away."

Funny thing is, I never got to play it, shortly after making it, i discovered the amazing free time eater: computer games and then girls, cars and clubbing.  .
