About this deal

You are here: Home / Games / Tabletop & RPGs / The welcome embrace of the battlefield: A review of Stargrave The welcome embrace of the battlefield: A review of Stargrave Ext up is the dedfurd. Super simple scheme loosely based on rainforest frog colouration. Not trying to win prizes with these things A skirmish wargame set in a dangerous galaxy where players command a small crew of adventurers hunting for loot, while trying not to call too much attention to their activities. I am going through the bestiary and thinking about what we may need need. Of course, many of us play DnD, 40k etc. and I was thinking that termagaunts might be useful as the "insect-y humanoid foody thing" and the old purple worm makes sense as the 20-foot worms.

Besides Stargrave’s eminently enjoyable tabletop gameplay, one problem persists: it can’t square its frenetic fighting with its roleplaying potential. During the game, credits can be won by getting to loot tokens and securing them. There are two types of loot; physical and data. It’s more than a cosmetic difference. Either might be more money, physical loot might be worth more credits, but data may also provide experience points.I’ve never watched any of the prequel shows, so how about Qui-Gon Jin and Obi-Wan Kenobi (this is getting out of hand, now there are two of them) plus eight Gungans.

For those that have played Stargrave’s predecessor, Frostgrave, the game will feel immediately familiar. Assemble a crew of ten intrepid adventurers, embark upon loot-snatching sorties in competitive two-player battles, and play through a series of interlinked scenarios across a persistent campaign – all the while levelling up your crew, and recruiting replacements for those who meet the nasty end of a carbine. Looking at them lined up now, the Reaper hobbit looks a little more like a dwarf than a hobbit compared to Aragorn. The Scotia Grendel model is close to Games Workshop hobbits in size, but has the more exaggerated features, which I prefer. This boxed set offers enough parts to build 20 lightly equipped male characters for Stargrave, ideal for use in independent crews or as members of the pirate fleets hunting them down. While this kit includes a range of weaponry and a mix of alien and human heads, even more variety can be achieved by mixing in components from other Stargrave male boxed sets. So, have a look through all the powers and, hopefully, it will get your creativity stirring, offering ideas for cool characters to start their adventures in the Ravaged Galaxy! That is a lot of damn dirty space apes! Now you just need to print a big oblong... actually, given that the thing should be totally featureless, maybe just a Sheet of something would Do

But space is a big place and, my god, it is full of recognisable archetypes from TV, film and books! So it seems natural to ask… how would your favourite spaceship crews from other fiction fare?

Typically armed with a Carbine, Hand Weapon and Heavy Armour.
