I was looking at my collection the other night when it occurred to me there was a natural mash up just waiting to happen, so I went ahead and did it.
Here's the game set up for the first play-through...
As you can tell, all you need to play this game is Space Crusade, Heroscape Master Set: Rise of the Valkyrie (maybe two sets if you want four walls like me), and Memoir '44.
The idea was for the Emperor's best to find the Artefact Glyph and take it off board. Alas the forces of Chaos were to intervene.
After the first turn, the yellow squad were already in trouble, with chaos marines kicking their butt.
Sadly for the "good" guys things went from bad to worse very quickly, although they did take out the Dreadnought very easily.
It went very well considering I spent all of ten minutes working out stats.
The following stats are :
Move spaces, Melee Attack Dice, Range, Ranged Attack Dice, Defence Dice, Area Effect
Standard Marine 3,3,5,3,3
Close Combat Marine 3,5,2,2,3
Hvy Weap Marine 2,3,5,4,3,Yes
Ork 3,2,6,3,2
Gretchin 2,1,5,1,1
Android 3,3,6,3,3
Dreadnought 2,3,5,5,5,Yes
Genestealer 3,5,0,0,3
Moving onto higher terrain does not cost move points but you can only climb one level for each hex moved. When shooting at a lower target range is +1.
Players each get four cards in hand and can play one per turn and draw a replacement at the end of their turn.
All moves are completed before combat.
The Memoir cards in use are restricted to the following: Attack, Recon, Assault, Probe, General Advance, Recon in force, Pincer move, Counter attack, Direct from HQ, Firefight, Ambush
Area effect weapons hit the target hex, and one adjacent hex. Both hexs must be in line of sight (although you don't have to hit two if you don't want to. You make separate rolls for each hex. You can not target an empty hex you have to target an enemy.
Next time I might add in the Devastators from Space Hulk... or maybe the Ninja from duck! duck! Go!...maybe not that last one.
