Looks like Star Wars fever has taken over this month, and I’m diving right in with the launch of a brand-new campaign. We’ll be tackling the core scenarios from Stargrave, but with a twist - they’ve been reworked to fit the Fistful of Lead: Galactic Heroes ruleset. Time to embark on an epic sci-fi adventure!
The campaign has officially begun! This week, we played the first scenario, and the After Action Report is now live on my blog. Check it out here: https://nozzawargaming.blogspot.com/2025/05/the-botched-deal.html (https://nozzawargaming.blogspot.com/2025/05/the-botched-deal.html).

Great battle report, Simon! And I caught the pun about the froggies, "Known for their slippery tactics"... :D lol

Very nice Nozza great looking table and write up. Figures and terrain looked very Star Wars without being a carbon copy of the more well known environs. Look forward to seeing the next report cheers!

We're carving out our own path in the Star Wars universe, but you can still expect a few surprise appearances along the way. One scenario 'might' even take place on Endor - just so I can finally put my Ewoks to use! You’ll also spot a few cameos from other sci-fi films and TV shows in the photos.

Looking forward to seeing it.
Hey Nozza seeing as you use alot of 3d printed figures to expand your collections would you care to give us a list of the stl makers you've used? Or perhaps a top 5?

Looks like a great start.

Nice one thanks Nozza there's a few i don't know most appreciated

I do like your mini's though.
Most mini producers seem to have moved over to the Legion 35mm scale, which is annoying when most of mine fit in with the early Imperial Assault and Stargrave figure scales but are a bit too short alongside Legion. I've had to resort to cutting heads off the old WotC minis and putting them on Stargrave plastics - not too bad as the WotC heads always looked a bit small anyway!
-
I've noticed that most 3D printing services are willing to resize models to IA/Stargrave scale, but they still charge the same price as the larger Legion size. Plus, the term "28mm" seems to encompass a range from 28mm to 32mm.
I've decided to take the plunge and ordered a Tinymaker 3D printer. While I wait for it to arrive, I've been experimenting with STL files in Chitubox. In most cases, simply resizing them to 90% or 85% makes them compatible with IA/Stargrave.

I would love to go down the same route, sadly neither my computer nor my budget are quite up to the job at present! ;)
Let us all know how it's going with your mini's and, who knows? lol

Had the second game in our Star Wars campaign this week.
In the depths of a chaotic Outer Rim planet, two rival crews clash in a battle for wealth and technology. The Wayfinder Crew, a scrappy band of adventurers led by the pragmatic Cap’in, thrives on grit and teamwork. Opposing them is the brutal Kalro Clan, a Hutt-led warband commanded by Durga Besadii Kalro and his brother Gorga, wielding military precision and ruthless force with their Super Battle Droids and deadly operatives. A high-stakes showdown looms as both factions fight for dominance.
So, what happened?

Agreed! These are great! Very … dare I say… Andor? And that’s a good thing!

Back after a work enforced break.
The Wayfinder crew lands on a volatile lava moon to recover lost Imperial tech, only to face hostile terrain, erupting Magmites, and a Mandalorian strike team led by Bo-Katan Kryze. As blaster fire lights up the ash-choked sky and lava creatures rise from the depths, survival becomes as urgent as the mission. Every step forward means heat, danger, and sacrifice - because on Mirok-7B, even the ground wants you dead.

Got 10 minutes to spare? Launch the kettle into orbit, engage biscuit acquisition mode, and discover how the Crew of the Wayfinder navigated their latest adventure without crashing into a black hole - or each other.

Thank you for the kind words. I think it's a toss up as to what takes longer - playing the game or writing up the game lol
