I have fallen into a bad crowd. It's
not their fault, they were lead astray whilst still young and
impressionable. I cannot lie, they use – oh this feels so dirty-
28/32mm figures for Rogue Stars. I know! I know! I'm trying to
wean them off the plastic pap and into proper heavy metal.
But there is a treatment. You just
need to show them a better way. “How, how can we help these poor
creatures?” I hear you cry. By being sneaky. Plus, there are
organisations that can help. I'm using one called Alternative Armies
(mostly) Grinning Skull range, which produces things that are
multiscale without charging stupid prices.
Let me show you the porn. First up

You've seen me use these in my recent
Moon campaign as the Brains from Uranus. There's a lot more there, go
find it!

Second there are the fowl beast I first
got for my Yorkshire campaign:

Hold on, here's the figures I used for
Clin-ton and Trump-ton, those feindish invaders of Yorkshire:

Now comes an even more frightening foe!

Dear reader, are you OK? Just relax,
it's almost over. I know, a squid a figure! Still- sometimes you've
just got to splash the cash.
So here are the assorted villains.
Note the size, so in 15/18mm they are going to be big and bulky. I'd
go with Big.
I'm going with Bounty Hunter as it's an
option I've not used in some time. No decision on tactical
discipline except to note that they do not leave a bear behind.
