Re: Race Ideas (Poste em)
 
For those of you interested (sounds like some), there was a Flash Gordon/Ming shipset released a bit back. A search might turn it up.(can't remember who did it though...memory fading...age enroaching...ugh....).

Ones I would like to see:

SPACEBALLS!!!!!!! http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/ima...ons/icon12.gif
Robotech/Battletech
L.E.G.I.O.N (DC Comic)
South Park style set (REALLY badly drawn http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/ima...ons/icon12.gif)
Lego shipset (I gave up trying to piece one together ages ago, no artistic ability in this blood http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon9.gif).
StarBlazers (EDF/Gamilion/Comet Empire, I know there are shipsets out there, but I want an updated Version, not copied cartoon images but 3d drawn computer images)(holding breath........ http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/ima...ons/icon12.gif)
and finally, the Yuzan Vong(sp?) from the new Star Wars book series (living coral ships, cool).

Anybody over 30 out there? How about a "Hardware Wars" shipset. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/ima...ons/icon10.gif

frigate = Iron
small fighter = Hand mixer
Baseship = Waffle iron

Anybody else remember this? It was a hoot.

LOL! Welding masked Vader. http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif

Any of you ever see the TROOPS series?

Your on location with the men and women of the Imperial Navy.

It was a spin off of cops but with stormtroopers on Tatoonie instead. "Stop or I'm gonna have ta shoocha!"

Explains what happend to the Jaws, and to Lukes Aunt and Uncle.

Very funny.

Geo, I'm not quite 30, but I remember it. LOL'ed when you reminded me of it.

Atrocities, I friend at work showed me TROOPS. Also a LOL!

Back to the original question....
-Daleks and other stuff from "Dr. Who"
-Space Wolves
-Space Vampires/Undead
-Chthulhu
-D&D in space (there was an expansion like this for D&D called Spacejammer or something like that)
-cartoons (old school and new)
-something plant-like
-sentient viruses/bacteria
-Amazons (mmm... chicks who kick butt!)

Whoops, sorry about the testosterone surge there!

Terrible Thunderlizards from the Eekstravaganza cartoon. Or maybe it should be called Dinosaur Society

Leader Portrait: General Galapagos ["We dinosaurs are doomed. I just know it."]

Of course, the Terrans might have to be modified with Bill as the leader portrait... ["When does the hurting stop?!"]


Ooo... there's potential for ANOTHER shipset: the Thuggasaurs, with Thuggo as the leader portrait. ["Biff, go destroy those foolish Thunderlizards. The rest of you come with me... my evil lair needs new wallpaper."]

"I'd like to live -just- long enough to be there when they cut off your head and stick it on a pike as a warning to the next ten generations that some favors come with too high a price. I would look up into your lifeless eyes and wave like this..." *waggle* "...can you and your associates arrange that for me, Mr. Morden?"

C.H.U.D.


The 50's Flash Gordon would make a really cool looking ship set.
