"Full Thrust Space Monsters" Topic

New on the blog, suggested rules for a random or referee-run "space monster" in Full Thrust, for use in spicing up fleet battles with an unexpected enemy:

As written, this guy should be a major pain for anywhere from 1000-3000 points of ships (and can sting even a larger force badly on the way out) but you could tweak the mechanics to make it less damaging and produce a critter that would work for scenarios emulating the classic Star Fleet Battles "heavy cruiser versus a monster" solo game.

very nice kitbash/sculpt. looks like a fun critter to game with .

How's your own astrofauna range coming along, Ravenstar?

Reminds me of the Space 1999 Dragons Domain monster…

thing still gives me nightmares

they will be released in late Oct.12 different space creatures and I am also doing a Horrid fleet which are different than the astrofauna.

Awesome. Look forward to seeing them.

Awesome. Great idea.

Looking fwd to what Ravenstar has in mind too.

Great idea and write, Rich!

(I like the critter, too).

I love it, but I'm a sucker for astrofauna of all types, so my opinion is a bit suspect.

I've got a Silent Death Solar Worm waiting on my work table right now, it's ridiculously adorable.

Love it, so got to run a game with one

Nicely done!

Well Done!

Just a cross-link to Khurasan's Magellanic Nomad, a not-budong, to add to the list of astrofauna, though I don't think it's out, yet.
