Looks like a great game Lord Speedy  :-bd

If you want to know if it was a stand up fight or just another bug hunt you'll have to read the batrep....

Well given the subject someone was going to make a reference to "Aliens" sooner or later  :)

A great write up Will. Do you think the rules would work for Stargate type fights? I have a bunch of not-Stargate minis in the loft.

Absolutely, they are completely generic. You have several basic templates (Light Infantry, Heavy infantry, Lesser Xenomorph etc) and you then bolt on the characteristics you want to itm

Have played several mostly 15mm - 24 pt games last about 1 1/2 to 2 hrs the book scenarios work well. Overall well recomended, good set. Best of it you can use almost any figures.

On my list to buy given I like all of his other 'Rampant' rules. Great looking game too Will.

Looks great, glad you enjoyed it.

I've been umm-ing and aah-ing between buying this or Space Station Zero.

And then I realised I already have Space Weirdos, Grimdark Future: Firefight and Zona Alfa for my sci-fi skirmish needs, all readily to hand (and probably others squirrelled away in dark corners of my hard-drive, forgotten and unloved). None of which have actually got to the table-top yet. Although we are inching closer  :-bd.

So I'm holding off (for now . . .).

Hmm. I can't find my Zona Alfa rulebook. I am Not Happy :(.
