During the second ECC (or was it third?) Los and I think Magic had
brought Starship Troopers with them and were playing it in miniature
one evening. Los had picked up a massive bag of plastic ants for the
Bugs (and then at the end of the weekend he donated them to the con
for future prizes; we're still giving them out!). I don't remember
if they were doing a modified SGII game, or DSII, or something of
their own creation.
