About this deal

I’m gonna make a crew using just the cultist and gnolls, as they are all a bit tattered looking and unarmoured. Special thanks goes to Osprey Games for sending me an early copy of the Stargrave rule book. Stargrave Creatures Although Stargrave is, at heart, a Frostgrave re-skin, there are a few noteworthy gameplay alterations. Rather than transporting the much-loved fantasy battler, verbatim, into the heavens above, some additions change the flavour of turn-to-turn gameplay. New damage effects add persistent blights to your units, for example – incentivising long-term planning rather than hot-headed assaults – and the slew of Captain powers, while comparable to the spells of Frostgrave’s wizards, contains many that are quite distinct from their fantasy forebears.

You saw this in the earlier table above. Gang-members, low-level criminals and cheap bodyguards. Basically low level muscle and rough people who live in areas where fights are likely. Personally, I don't see why the captain and/or first-mate can't also be robots. I'm unfamiliar with the lore or mechanics of Stargrave, but SF is full of intelligent and self-aware robots. They might be autonomous machines sent to explore where humans can't tread, runaway androids seeking freedom, the remnants of an alien civilization from the distant past, or machines that destroyed their masters and now have an antipathy towards all organic life. These large robots are designed to kill. They have plenty of armour, health and will power. They also can’t be controlled by a character player.Where does the shotgun trooper come from? Still waiting on my book, but I didn't see that option in the crew rules they released. In many games, we roll dice in to see which miniatures come in from a collection of 6 to 12 random monsters. The same could be done with Stargrave easily.

But who in Section 9 would support her and make up the rest of the crew? The answer, of course, is eight Fuchikoma spider-bots (plus Batou). Or perhaps just in this thread (and maybe a painting/crews show off in the painting/modelling section?)Stargrave can be played as a one-off, but it also has campaign rules that use experience points, the loot you win on the battlefield (typically only the victory points system in other games), and upgrading the spaceship.
