i put together a starter set for my beloved's nephew's eleventh birthday; i went sci-fi as he's keen on star wars, and chose starport scum for the ruleset, since it's relatively simple but with enough detail and a campaign system that keeps things interesting.





to get him started, i made some floorplans using the old gw citi-block ones:

then i generated some initial gangs and wrote a four part mini-campaign to utilise them:



i also included a miniature painting guide, should he take an interest.

finally here are the three gangs i included in the box:



riot police from offensive miniatures, led by a militiaman from urban war.



avians from cp miniatures.



spice lice from irregular miniatures.

all in this cost just under £55.00.

I love your choice of minis. Avians and Spice Lice are great alternative models.

Doing a start set is a great idea.

thanks both. at least part of the endeavour was to ensure he realised there's no need to get dragged down the proprietal ranges route when choosing miniatures.

That is a thoughtful and well crafted birthday present. :) I hope it was well received and you've both gotten in some good gaming with all that lovely.
