 January 7, 2009 - 9:16am | Hi all back in the fall the Privateer Press game Monsterpocalypse was demoed at our war game club and I enjoyed it enough to buy in but aslo because I liked the map, building and units for use with star frontiers as well. I've bloged about it here: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/SF-Un/message/723 The map is two sided depicting a down town section (like Port Loren) and one side had a canal system. I love the buildings and the small units are nice in that they're pre-painted plastic. Ebay is a great place to pick up units and building but the map only comes in the starter box. Despite having so much I wanted to use the game was a lot of fun with very complex strategy paired with reasonably simple mechanics The downside is that its a collectable game and the unit boxes are blind (random units and buildings) So this might not be the greatest thing to come down the pike (Possible fad game & blind collectors boxes) it is a nice alternative to the Port Loren map. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |

January 8, 2009 - 2:09pm | sorry about the blog with the log in I suppose I could upload to photobucket during the next 24 hrs. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
October 14, 2012 - 8:36am | I know the hydra encounter is an old hoary chestnut from the basic game but I rewarched Cloverfield a couple or three weeks ago so this must be perculationg in the back of my mind. Was thinking about a I Chomp Port Loren Rampage scenario. The monster needs to be on steroids though compared to the hydra. Perhaps scaled so that player run tanks and squads of infantry instead of PCs. I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers! |
