Not as long as you don't mind having to adjust dimensions and ranges according
to whatever scale vessels/crewmembers you're using.  The official scale wouldn't
make much sense if you were playing with 4" action figures, as you might end up
in a situation where a ship is large enough that you can't shoot from one end to
the other.

Of course lots of LEGO creatures have been released since the rules have
been written and aren't statted up.

Most of them probably aren't very useful to a game like this, except maybe rats
(chance of catching The Plague when bitten?) and the HP dog (the new one, NOT
Fluffy).  Maybe the monkey (hey, it could steal equipment from you, and maybe
cause crewmembers to desert by throwing monkey-poo at them).  The HP basilisk
and the Dinosaurs Mosasaur and Plesiosaurus (alt model for the Brachiosaurus)
would work well for the Sea Monsters (which, while technically not statted, have
been left to the GM's imagination).

(...) I use a number of creatures that aren't statted up by Steve Jackson. Mummies, ghosts, skeletons, all the various dinosaurs, elephants, etc. In fact, mostly I don't use the creatures that Steve Jackson statted up... Frank (20 years ago, 15-Oct-04, to lugnet.gaming)
