I have a load of Dreadball figures that may fit the bill (I don’t think they all have obvious DB gloves or bits on them) I was playing with a crew list last night. Need to sort the models, but the following seemed like a good mix. You start with a captain (your best squad member), a first mate (your second best) and a handful of crew. Is stargrave basically a stand alone game system a bit like warriors of erewhon? In case you've not played Frostgrave, the fantasy predecessor to Stargrave, Stargrave is a minis agnostic skirmish game. There are official minis, including 3 plastic box sets of PYO [pose your own] figures. The new plastics are compatible with the older Frostgrave and Ghost Archipelago plastics. You can play one-off games but the fun in both systems is a campaign. In Frostgrave, only the Wizard gained Exp, and the Apprentice was basically an inferior copy of the Wizard. In Stargrave, you choose a Captain and First Mate; they can have the same Speciality, or different ones, and they each can gain experience. The Captain rolls to activate Powers normally, and the First Mate at a penalty. (It's a bit more detailed than that, but that will do for now.) A well armed soldier with a basic amount of training. They carry Carbines, have Heavy Armour and carry a knife too.

Looking at them lined up now, the Reaper hobbit looks a little more like a dwarf than a hobbit compared to Aragorn. The Scotia Grendel model is close to Games Workshop hobbits in size, but has the more exaggerated features, which I prefer.

Stargrave uses a single column of text in a good size font, frequent and small paragraphs and ample use of sub-headings. It’s as if someone wisely followed web-design UX principles, and since my copy of Stargrave is a PDF, not a paper book, those best practices seem like a good fit. This leaves the rest of the crew, who could be other major characters, but I like the idea of casting them as the rebel commandos Han and Chewie lead during their daring raid on Endor in Return of the Jedi. For a start, Stargrave does not need any more money from you or any more models. Yes, there are some official minis from North Star but this game is not designed to lure you into the investment cycle of maintaining the best army by buying the latest troop release. There is an economy of credits (CR) in Stargrave. At the start of the game, credits are the resource players spend to design their squad around the captain and first mate. Competing crews won’t be the same. One might make heavier use of combat specialists, and another, for example, might be highly mobile.

Hamster-Wow, those otter heads are a good size. I might need to get those for some of the Einherjars I still have. You are welcome to put your own interpretation in the comments below, but to me the Ryankan sound like Pterodactyls. Inspiration doesn’t have to come from sci-fi, and when someone suggested this idea to me it absolutely had to be included. The nine members of the fellowship from The Lord of the Rings…. but in space!

Depending on how useful Carbines are compared to shotguns, might have a different mix on the commando and troopers. These monkey like creatures are half the size of a human. They like to eat the energy from batteries that crew members carry and happen to have three eyes.

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. Tiny, cute robot bunnies! I seriously have no idea what i'm going to use these things for, but they were free and look at the cuteness! Probably base them as a pair to act as a drone.

Of it, McCullough said this: "Stargrave was designed as a competitive game between two or more players, but I always knew that I would tinker with some solo mechanics for it. I just didn’t think I would do it quite so soon! Northstar torsos with Sally 4th metal heads. Both the cat medic and dachshund mystic are made from FG Wizards 2, and FG Wizards 1 respectively.
