Adapting WH40K 2nd ed. seemed to work out perfectly. Unless you rolled ones – which Obi-One and the Wookie One-ders did. The good guys still won though.

Sounds like it was a fun game! Looked pretty cool too. Wouldn't be my choice of rules for Star wars. However, that's a matter of choice. Please post any other battle reports. Thanks, John |

Hi, so far for my Clone Wars games I have used modified Fubar. I drop the suppressions and modify the vehicle damage table. I also eliminate On guard as a default status. My last game had 150+ infantry and 20+ vehicles. It lasted 2.5 hours to completion. Pics here: link Thanks, John |

Very cool, John. Can I ask where you sourced your vehicles?
The main reason that I used 40K 2nd ed. is that I had just got all of the figures together (you can see that some of them have half textured bases, others have none) and needed a rules system I could pick up and run with very quickly. So it had to be something familiar and that gave a good game with only 50 or so figures all up, plus had heroes incorporated. It took half an hour to come up with the necessary stats and the force rules we used. |

Hi, do you mean sourced in purchasing or in stating up? Fubar has cards already made with the stats for almost every vehicle and troop type for the Clone Wars and Rebellion. It is at the Files section of the Yahoo group. I created the stats a while ago. Another gent created the wonderful cards. link Thanks, John |

Thanks for the link. I'll look into Fubar as a ruelset.
I was actually meaning the purchasing of the models. I've seen a couple of Revell kits, but is there somewhere else to keep looking? Cheers

Ok. Well, I use the Micro machine Scale Clone Wars figs. I also have vast numbers of WOTC ones but seem to use them less frequently. I bought lots of the WOTC vehicles and then Action Fleet AAT's and MTT's playsets. Scale wise in the larger stuff you have decisions to make. I use a lot of the Transformer vehicles. No, they aren't quite to scale. But they cost half or less of what a larger model often does. Like I said. I mainly focus on the smaller scale figs for my Clone Wars action. It fits on a table better with LARGE games. I use Action Fleet, Titanium and Transformer vehicles. There are shed loads of vehicles from titanium. The main problem at the smaller scale is finding regular Battle Droids. Luckily I bought 70 or so when they were released as Micro machines. Now folks want an arm and a leg for them. Super BD's can be had from the Clone Wars Risk game along with Clone Infantry. I converted some of those into Jedi and various other troops and personalities like Grevious. Thanks, John |
