I prefer the strong risk to reward mechanics of the original version and I enjoy the bad dice rolls that can cause chaos in a well laid plan.

Changing gears now, the Graphics of Space Hulk: Ascension are clean and solid.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
11 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The sound design is superb in this regard: the whining of the ancient Terminator armor suits, the clanging of metal grates and tiles, the oppressive echo of bolter fire against the too-close bulkheads, the static of the Marines' voices over the vox channel...and the lunatic chitter and clatter of genestealers just outside of sight.
