At Cincycon 2016, I hosted a hard fought game of Starship Troopers with the MI waiting for relief to evacuate their SICON Intel officer. There were many casualties, nukes were fired and tankers stomped across the battlefield… Do you want to know more? link

Mark, Yeah, I bought that when it was released. This might be the second time it's been used in a game. It's a big honking piece of lead. The wings are a little fragile. I'm surprised it survived the game in one piece! Next time they break off – JB Weld!

Oh sure, make humanity the 'bad guys'. . The title is actually an homage to a stand up bit by Doctor Zoidberg in Futurama. "On Earth you enjoy eating a tasty clam, on my planet, clams enjoy eating a tasty you!" Which of course is an homage to the original jokes from Yakov Smirnoff cataloging the differences between the United States and the Soviet Union.

I saw it in person, well done. You seemed to have many enthusiastic players.

It was great seeing the Starship Troopers minis on the table again.

This is very cool. I loved the "Warrior Bugs" from Day One! And to this day kick myself for not getting one of the "Warrior bug horde" (20 bug) sets when I had the chance. Sadly this is just 'one more' of the games " I thought" was goind to be great, yet saw played only once at the local hobby shop. In fact when I asked, the owner said, "they seem to be buying it, but if anyone is playing, its not here." And such was the case.. of course Mongoose situation didnt help. Ok.. that thing is All lead. Holy Moly! Thanks for the pics and AAR.
