Bug Hunt Scenario Rule Suggestions
« on: 25 July 2023, 08:55:22 PM »
Hello Community,

I am looking for some suggestions.  I what to run a Sci-fi Troopers vs Xenos scenario.

The vision I have is a group of troopers clearing out a underground warren, or nest, of bugs.  The bugs can be a human opponent or maybe a random "AI" mechanics.  Bugs will come out of walls, the floor, or from behind.  Maybe the Xenos use a secret tunnel network hidden form the troopers, like the Starship troopers board game.  A "stressful" clear the map game for the troopers. 

I am looking for any rules systems, or board game, that can capture this feel.  Would the older Space hulk system capture this?  I would just place it underground.

Please post any ideas to help create this.  Minis will be painted!

Thanks

Well the Zona Alfa supplement Kontraband contains the concept of Points of Interest and the associated random cards.

Dentatus can probably describe it better.

The Zona Alfa rules would cover the basic parts as well.

There is an AAR here that discusses POI:

Perhaps 5 parsecs bug hunt may be your cup of tea...
