The Stargrunt II rulebook has several simple scenarios in the back - I
learned how to play with those.
A "meeting engagement" is the most common (and simplest) scenario for
beginners; if you want to learn the rules, keep it simple, keep the
forces
roughly the same, and give them the same objective. That'll do for a
game
or two, then you can get more creative.
I have pics and a writeup of another scenario posted here, once you're a
bit more advanced (and if you're interested in vehicles):

And, BTW, www.stargrunt.COM will work just fine - I registered that
domain
name also when it became available, so www.stargrunt.ca and
www.stargrunt.com are interchangable.
