There's also the Trigan Empire - serialised in the UK in Look and Learn comics, it's a sort of SF Roman setting.

I've added a couple of pictures of a new element, a factory:

Oh that is awesome!

I'm also running another game at Historicon with a very different (but equally silly) premise, Les Miserables the Wargame:

The description in the PEL states:

"Singing ability is a plus but not required (just ask Russell Crowe)."

Actually, players will be permitted to to re-roll bad dice rolls if they sing a few bars of any Broadway show tune.

The buildings are brilliant. I occasionally get tempted to go neoclassical for my 30/40k board. This gives me a few ideas!

I posted a report on this game that I ran at Historicon along with a host of pictures from the convention:

Nice effort on the AAR and game itself - looks like fun was had by all (even if you died a glorious death).
