"May the fourth. Star Wars day. Not a fanatical fan but do like the movies (well at least 4, 5, and 6). On Sunday, I thought – "hang on, I have some Star Wars Micromachines and I have a few Space fighter rules that I played in the early 80's. Maybe put the two together for a quick game?" So on Sunday I dug up Starhound (go here for a look at the reference sheets), a ruleset I played a few times in the early 80's. I seem to remember it was fun, but looking at it now it seems to be a longer game that it could be, and it uses d100. I also dug out the other space fighter boardgame I had played – Yaquinto's Starfall. Starfall is a long game and quite detailed, so while I remember it been a good game, not for me at the moment when all I want to do it put a few fighters on the table and push them around for a one-off game. I would have liked to play Star Wars: Star Warriors as it looks like it would fit right in, but I do not have it :-) And I have resisted so far getting Star Wars: X-Wing Miniatures Game, or I think I would have been playing that!…"
