    We played a game of Bugs vs Marines in 28mm – 22mm bigger than we normally play

    Interesting, are the rules just for bug hunt type games or do they have more meat on them?

    They were 1 page bug hunt type games

    Naturally we suggested a few changes to the rules as is the Berkeley Vale Club way 🙂

    Paper bugs you say? Are they a commercial PDF product? Wouldn’t mind having a go myself (bugs vs WH40K Catechan jungle fighters) if you could let me know where to get them from. Looks like a fun game, so thanks for posting.

    Cheap and bloody effective looking bugs, nice work Allen I’m well impressed.

    Excellent! Looks like great fun, and the use of Tau looks interesting. I’d also like to second Paul’s question: are the paper bugs readily available, or a private project?

    The guy who did the models sent me this

    ===========
    The original bugs template seems to have become corrupted somewhere along the line and I can’t get it to open. However, it was a freebie easily available online via a search for ‘Papercraft Warrior Bug’ and I’ve found a modern equivalent here:

    starship-troopers-papercraft-warrior

    although it seems to have evolved a little since I originally did them but if anything the newer version looks better!
    ===========

    He also sent me a pdf of the rules which I shall load up to the interweb at some point

    My wife and I play StarShip Troopers still located in Orange County California.  In fact, there is also a Facebook site still dedicated to the game if interested https://www.facebook.com/groups/579039952175874/

    Still a fun game my wife loves playing bugs

    There is no such thing as a Dead Game as long as there is two playing it.
