Starguard 42nd Anniversary 7th Editon: The game that would not die.

By John S McEwan

One of the grand old science fiction rule sets and the very first published science fiction miniatures game. (42 years old, as of 2016). Originally "...a skirmish game built around fast-moving, jet-belt infantry...", Starguard has grown with the addition of rules for armor and heavy weapons. The 7th edition includes over twenty force types (human and alien), with complete backgrounds and equipment lists, twenty different robot and warbot types and over thirty vehicles. Rules emphasize playability. It is a skirmish game - the firepower and movement capabilities of the individual jump trooper or powered armor-man are so great that large groups become tempting targets. The tactics of the jump trooper are slash and move - blow through and shoot.
