I ran 3 demos at our local game convention this weekend. I used the projection game table I built. Here are some pictures if anyone is interested. I was a lot of fun.
Here is the pregame setup

The first session was called Ghost Ship. The players had to run down a ship that was broadcasting a distress call and it wouldn't respond to hails. When they got on board they find the crew apparently up and about trying to repair their ship. In truth the crew had been taken over by parasitic aliens. If they disable one of the crew then the alien would try and take over the Player. One of the players was taken over and he did a great job working for the Aliens.

The second session was called Have gun will Travel. The players had to capture a Pirate that was plaguing the shipping lanes near a wealthy star system. The players had a ship with popup turrets to play the part of a helpless trader. They decided to let the pirates’ board and sprung a trap on them.

The last session was called Repel boarders. The players were tasked with transporting some valuable goods for powerful man who would not be pleased it they didn't get there safely. The thieves jumped them and took out there drives with a missile. When they boarded the players turned the tables on then. They had two very well equipped Marines. They let then come aboard and caught them in a trap, taking out all but two that escaped to the upper and lower deck. The one on the lower deck found the cargo and was trying to get it out the cargo door when one of the marines caught up with them. They got the cargo to destination safely.
