I was wondering the same thing. I haven't been on for months. Mongoose's glacially slow product line put me right off. I thought I'd found a replacement for 40K and then...nothing. Since then 5th ed has come out and I'm looking to sell all my STT minis.

Well bugger me sideways! I went away for a while with the expectation that by now SST Evo would be ready for imminent release with preview pics and so on and lo and behold it has been put to 'sleep'...such a shame :( My army is gathering dust, I wasn't able to find a game before and there's no...

Thanks all for the tips. I have since made an order with Wargames Workshop which 8 days later seems no closer to arriving. Perhaps I'll try Dancing Dryad next time and see if they're faster on the draw. I actually ordered some cliff mites with the intention of using them as some cheap screening...

Can anyone tell me of a fast & reliable UK mail order service for SST stuff? I've tried Forbidden Planet (www.forbiddenplanet.co.uk) but they're slow and they don't have a live stock level indicator, meaning a long wait for nothing when items aren't actually in stock. I know I said I wasn't...

Well then, I just read through the linked post and I have no more questions. The prepaints look phenomenal, because I have MI (power suits) ready I can play them before the prepaints are even released and the game is set to be even better! What more could I possibly ask for?! If only someone had...

There are production photos?! Where?! As far as the streamlining goes, if what you say is true why bother to support the old game? It sounds like evo will include all that is loved about the game plus more to get your teeth/talons/spiky bits (delete as appropriate) into. If what you're telling...

WARNING! Long post, you may want to get a sandwich :D I was going to vote but I realised that I hadn't decided yet and really can't until I've actually seen the new minis and can judge whether they make the old ones look awful or whether they will mesh seamlessly together (or something...

Tis alright people, I have found a couple of willing victims including another former GW employee and some other wargamers who I know from my time with GW. I'm also going to be putting together a SST roleplay group made up of the same people. Thanks all for your help. As for the clubs...

Oh dear G-d! You poor soul! I'm sorry :D Another victim, let us all take a moment to reflect on the suffering of those still enthralled to the great devourer :D But seriously folks, I may well pop down to my old club and see if anyone's up for a game. By the way I really searched the people...

Yes I did but after a dozen pages with no London entry (but LOADS of American entries) I got somewhat worried that the game hadn't really taken off here in the UK not to mention London. Oh and it wasn't only 8 hours, I edited the post which seems to have changed the date and time stamp. Also as...

Okay....this is really worrying...it appears that I've bought into a game that no one plays. Ebay here I come.

Hi all, I've recently gotten into Starship Troopers in a big way (both movies, roughnecks 1-6, miniature game, roleplaying game, original book...) and bought the SST boxed game and plenty of other minis. I am a former GW employee that has seen the light :D and I was wondering whether there is...
