Hello all,

I just wanted to let anyone interested know I have created a simple set of rules for small scale space station adventuring. Usually encompassing 5-10 models with options for calamities to occur in game while playing to add a little variety. The original mini rule book and its two supplements are free for download and use on my website which you can link to at the bottom of my post. The rules are easy to learn and most games will go pretty quickly if somone just wants some quick gaming fun.

Just my attempt to give people a free and easy alternative ruleset for small games. Cheers

Can you say more about the system?

Id be glad to.

So its an alternating activaiton so that no more than one model at a time will go from each crew/team.

After putting together a crew with the variety of weapon and equipment options the teams are in most cases deployed en masse in a corner of a 2 ft x 2ft up to 4ftx 4ft board (thoug some equipment does allow for teleporting on later)

Besides roll to determine who starts there is also a Random Chaos table that can be rolled on before each turn to mimic issues that may arise on a abandoned station or derelict spaceship, like gas leaks or gravity failures that can mess with movement, shooting ect.

I also inclued a number of scenarios that can be used for solo or versus play.

The rules though are some what malleable so people can tweek them if needed if issues arise that I did not think of.

As most crews/teams are around 5-7 models these games can tend to go very quickly. Due to the variety of miniatures options for such a setting my ruleset is ment to be model agnostic though I will try to put out my own sculpts from time to time as alternatives. So use what ever you like. Stargrave and Wargames Atlantic seem to have alot of possiblities in this area. I am in the process of creating a few miniatures for the infestation crews though.


Hope that helps as a big synopsis

I'm not looking for another ruleset myself, but that's great you made something and are sharing it. I hope folks will enjoy it. Nice work.

Much appreciated bbb

Hello all,

Inspired by my Infestation crews I have sculpted up some infected and had them casted. Below is the first painted but there is six total poses. Gonna post more pics as i finish them up. Hope to have them available for anyone interested very soon. Im not the greatest painter but I think you get the vibe Cheers.

An here is a Quick Look at one of the Insectoid Hybrids that will be available.

Hello all,

Just a small announcement that my little kickstarter will be starting soon for multiple sets of strange mutated miniatures and other sci fi stuff. If looking for an odd miniature or two for your RPG, space crawl or tabletop games check it out if you have a chance. This little one man opp would greatly appreciate your patronage! Cheers
