Stargrave announcement.

That should read "I come in peace..shoot to kill...shot to kill...shoot to kill...I come in peace...shoot to kill men"
I am interested in these.  Very worthwhile first showing.

Ahh, I was just waiting to see if anyone would take the bait

I’m certainly looking forward to the release of these miniatures (and will probably check out the book, too). I use my own space opera setting, so figures that can fit a range of backgrounds will be great!

Oh blasted, I'm blind.

Shows my age.

[Storm Wolf]

Shows my age.

And mine unfortunately

I will certainly pick up the rules and likely all the figs.  I mainly do fantasy, but through the years have picked up an eclectic variety of SciFi figs (in particular lots of 40K Imperial Guard).  A good skirmish rule set should have me putting some on the table.  And the plastic kits sound quite promising - I think the Frostgrave and GA boxes have been first rate.

I want to be able to make a SecUnit.  Murderbot for the win!

Just having a nosey.

This looks very interesting.

I hope there will be nice alien figures that won't just be 'the men in monster suits' that the plastic crew have to be for the purposes of interchangeability.

Having watched a few videos (including a flip-through of the book in which I used the pause button judiciously), I now believe my hopes for Stargrave have come true.  It's heavily modified for sci-fi, but still the underlying Frostgrave system with which I have become familiar.  That means the fantasy bestiary sections of all my blue and green Frostgrave books are just waiting to become alien critters with a reskinning. 

Also, I'll be using Perilous Dark to help me create the cherry-picked mix-match of all my favorite sci-fi settings into my own Stargrave galaxy.  I look forward to scrabbling through the rubble of the war between the great Gothic Grimdark Empire and the Cybertech Corporatocracy in the hard-luck frontier of the Outer Rim, where ancient ruin planets are just as common as the war torn frontier worlds where Old Earth Atompunk Americana was in fashion right before the bombardments began...

I'm also scheming how to adapt Mantic's Plagued in as a custom set of baddies to replace the Space Pirates in certain regions.  I'm looking forward to finally getting use out of my dragon's hoard from the Deadzone, Warpath, and Star Saga kickstarters!

Could you link that flip-through please? I havent find anything like that.

It's pretty much the first half-hour of this monstrosity:

I'm NOT endorsing the quality of the commentary.  The most useful thing is the physical book flip-through as the guy rambles on, sometimes just reading scenario names out loud.

Thanks!

[snitcythedog]

Big thanks on this end too.  The release date has not changed with the pandemic has it?  Updates here seem to have dried up.

Another good video here, where the guy goes through the similarities and differences between Stargrave and Frostgrave2

Really looking forward to these rules!

looking forward to see if there will be another way to acquire the game apart from ordering a hardcover from the other side of the world.
