I'm a big fan of the WargamingPastor's DeathZap blog which features SciFi battles mainly using very cheaply sourced materials and figures. The author is also very creative with rule systems. Feeling inspired I have pulled a few SciFi figures from the Mountain of Unpainted Shame and thrown together a simple gridded Skirmish game based on the 3x3 PW. It's still very much a WIP but may come to fruition (unless I get distracted by something else.)
I've established a Near Future setting in which catastrophic climate change has reduced the population to a fraction of its current size, and where States and Governments have been replaced by Corporations whose private armies fight for scarce resources amid the ruins of cities - cheery stuff!
