- Second Major Update - Game Speed Feature - 7 November 2018
https://i.imgur.com/BJOncRQ.gif Greetings, It’s been almost a month since the release of Space Hulk: Tactics. We’re very thankful for your support and feedback. We’ve been hard at work improving the game to give you a better experience. Today, we’re launching a second major update that addresses some issues that you’ve raised, such as gameplay speed, AI improvements, gameplay rebalancing, and bugfixes. As many of you have asked, one of the main highlights of this update is the gameplay speed. We’ve adjusted the speed of each option, and added 2 additional animation speeds - fast and very fast - to give you a better experience during the game. From now on, the fast speed allows you to play the game more fluidly, while the normal one provides you a more immersive game experience. Also included in this update are AI improvements.

- Wot I Think Space Hulk: Tactics - 17 October 2018
Developer: Cyanide Studio Publisher: Focus Home Interactive Release: Out now! On: Windows From: Steam and Humble For: 34.99/$39.99/ 39.99 In the last five years alone, there have been four video game adaptations of the Warhammer 40,000 spin-off, Space Hulk. Plenty of chances to get it right, you d think, though the first three attempts suggest otherwise. And here comes Space Hulk: Tactics , once again throwing gruesome Genestealers against stompy Terminators in derelict spaceship corridors. It s not quite a combo-breaker, but it gets very close.

- Community Update #1 - 11 October 2018
https://i.imgur.com/BJOncRQ.gif Hi everyone, Space Hulk: Tactics released two days ago and we’d like to extend a huge thank to all of you who played and posted feedback about the game. We’re closely monitoring your reports on Steam, the official forums, and social networks to develop patches answering your requests. You’ll find below our take on the main feedback we’ve received. We’ve read a lot of comments about the AI of the game, especially in the campaign. Space Hulk: Tactics’ campaigns are meant to slowly introduce players to the mechanics of the game. The first missions feature a less aggressive AI to give time to new commanders to learn to control a terminator squad. The further you progress through the campaign, the more risks the AI take and it quickly starts to become aggressive, as you would expect a Genestealer pack to be. Of course, it doesn’t mean the AI is perfect and we’…
- Board game remix Space Hulk: Tactics stomps into stores today - 9 October 2018
SPACE HULK SPACE HULK SPACE Hu- okay, let’s not do that. As polished as Space Hulk: Tactics looks, Cyanide’s take on the venerable board game feels like a regular franchise entry now, rather than a once-in-a-blue-moon event it used to be. As with Space Hulk Ascension from a few years back, Tactics is another attempt to capture the spark of Games Workshop’s board game of sci-fi tactics, pitting a squad of power-armoured troopers up against an endless alien swarm – this time with a full alien campaign for solo play. Below, an ominous and lore-heavy launch trailer. (more…)

- Mission Creator Devblog - 28 September 2018
https://i.imgur.com/koqr7Az.gif Welcome back to the devblogs for Space Hulk: Tactics, today we’ll be talking about the Map Editor. Far from a tool for only the most creative portion of the playerbase, we consider this a core pillar of the Space Hulk experience, and we’ve designed it in such a way to be easy to use for everyone. The reason for this is how influential the ease of making your own missions was on the Space Hulk boardgame. It is still played by a dedicated fanbase today, after almost 30 years since the 1989 release, in part because of the clip-together nature of the terrain pieces that came with it. Creating your own missions is as easy as adding an objective to your idea for a map, and we’ve embraced that completely with the Mission Editor. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F32890690%2F1dc5e415ca980f55ea6b7b7ef58518036ca66f62.jpg First you pick…
