Forlorn Hope mission question - posted in + HORUS HERESY RULES +: Hi folks, Im due to play the Forlorn Hope strategic raid mission from HH4 tonight and had a question. Under the High Alert special rules it says Whenever one of the Defender’s units is completely destroyed by an enemy unit, it is immediately placed into Reserves instead of being removed from play.
PRIORITY TRANSMISSION: THIS IS RESEARCH STATION HOPE. WE ARE UNDER ATTACK AND NEED IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE! HELP US, SOMEBODY, PLEASE. TRANSMISSION END 'All right, marines, we have a mission. They ain't payin' us by the hour. Let's move out.' Forlorn: Hope, from designer Chris Taylor, is a game of tactical combat between a squad of human Space Marines and a nearly unlimited horde of vicious alien Xenos aboard the claustrophobic space station, Hope.

The Marine player utilizes a limited number of Action Points to command the Forlorn Squad, hoping that luck and a timely rush of adrenaline will help them to complete their desperate mission with at least a few survivors. The Xeno player has no such worries, as the single-minded horde relentlessly presses in from all sides, fearlessly confronting the human's advantage in firepower, proving that quantity has a quality all its own. This low-complexity, quick-playing game includes two shipboard maps and rules for two-player and solitaire play. Tight, tense, and gripping gameplay will have players making whatever sacrifice is called for in this ultimate battle for survival aboard a contested space station. Can you lead Forlorn Squad on the missions necessary for humanity to survive? Or will the Xenos prove too numerous to stop their relentless destruction?
Play Forlorn: Hope and find out.
