Aliens played a large role in 5150. We did all the work for you. There were close to 25 aliens from six or more figure manufacturers.
In the updated version, 5150: Star Army we provide info on the first four.
The rest are being revamped and released as free PDFs for use with Star Army. Here's the first… Spugs.

Hows the template working? We haven't got to use one yet. One of these days I'll have to have a bit of fun with flamers and bugs. |

Your templates are great. A variety of uses and having them in a multi-pieces makes them much better than one hard template. Great for adjusting for range, link |

My son has a bunch of AT43 stuff – Red Blok and Therians mostly – any chance of that showing up in the Star Army lists – you might gain instant converts! |

Now Spriggan just needs to add the rest of the Spugs from their 28mm line to 15mm. I want the WHOLE Spug 15mm army! |

I'm using a lot of Red Blok stuff in 15mm. I took one of the medium sized mech bodies and converted it into a half track. I'm working on a fully track command/Communication truck next. You can easily create QSRs for both factions. The generic Star Army QSRs will work for almost any professionally trained force. PDF for more militia style stuff. ISS for super soldier commandos. You can add different flavor to each unit by adding faction specific attributes. I don't know much about the AT-43 background so I can't help you there. We do this a lot for Star Wars conversions. A buddy of mine has some Jedi stuff he is working on converting over now. Balancing them to be Jedi like and not overpowered has been an issue. We did take Yoda down once but it took a lot of droids. I know new beginnings and Star Army both have an extensive list attributes. |

AT43 stuff – Ask on the THW Yahoo Group and someone will probably give you the info. There was a discussion on the group about that subject a couple of weeks ago. Set it for web only or digest as there's almost 5000 members. |
