I was just thinking I've got quite a few UFO-style aliens as well as LOM
aliens. And a healthy batch of Gungans. I'm tempted to be a squad of purely
one breed of alien. Or a squad of hyper intelligent space monkeys. Ewoks maybe?

I'm thinking less is more. Using primarily figs means if we set too high a
limit we'll get little armies instead of little squads... At an offhand
guess I'd estimate about 10-20 troops per player? (maybe just 10-15) I
dunno. Mostly just cuz if it's going to be a troop-centric game and we have
lots of area to cover, we'll probably want to have lots of turns [since
troops are pretty slow]...

I heard rumors of an existing plotline or one in development? Any word on
that? BTW, did we decide if this an actual ship or a base? I was thinking
earlier about making an 'outside the base' module where invaders could enter
from, with some big exterior panelling (docked ship/base walls) and rock
faces, etc... Would give me a chance to use, say the 32x32 crater plates or
something :)
Oh yes, how many teams do we want? More teams might be more fun (and more
destructive), but more people also means longer turn time...
