Salvage Crew: Star Mogul
March 11, 2011 by dracs
Mega Minis have announced the release of their game Salvage Crew: Star Mogul as a free PDF! For Free!
In this game you take on the role of a Star Mogul, the owner of a group of scavengers looking to salvage what you can from the derelict settlements on the outer edges of the universe. It seems to be a pretty generic sci-fi skirmish game, aimed for use with miniatures of around 28mm.
Having said this it might make an interesting change from all the other sci-fi games out there, and what with it being free to download there really is no better time to give it a try.
Mega Minis do supply a range of miniatures which are compatible with the game, but from the looks of it you could easily use your existing models to get a game going. For free.
So what do you think guys? Do you think you might give this game a shot? If you've already played it be sure to let us know, we'd love to hear your verdict. For Free.

Its for free is it?
The rules read a bit like the Warmachine rules to me(though I’ve only roughly acquainted myself with them) with the rolls opposed by defence values “strategy points” are roughly analogous to focus/fury and a command radius on each units leader, only they seem to have a few extra layers of complexity for some things but simplifications on others e.g. vehicles all take damage the same way on the same chart instead of the box system on jacks that’s specific to each jack but they have many arcs instead of a jack’s 2, maybe not the best examples in the book… Read more »
Most of the minis are a bit “meh”… But there are some nice ones !
I don’t feel qualified discussing the rules of the game, but since it’s free, as opposed to pretty much every other game, I’d say it’s worth checking…
Oh damn I forgot to mention its free
Bit pricey if you ask me 😉
Look forward to downloading and reading these rules, but, unfortunately it might take me a while to find time to read them properly..
