	Starship Troopers
		The animated series Roughnecks: Starship Troopers[?] (released in 2000) was closer to the events of the book, such as including the war with the Skinnies, and included more of the characters.
		Starship Troopers clearly influenced many later science fiction stories, setting a tone for the military in space.
		Starship Troopers was also made into a strategy/simulation board game by Avalon Hill in 1976.

	Starship Troopers for PC Review - PC Starship Troopers Review
		Starship Troopers has little dedication to faithfully re-creating the things that made the film unique, and it's a pretty lousy and technically deficient shooter to boot.
		Starship Troopers takes place five years after the events of the movie, and humanity is still very much at war with the Klendathu, a race of nasty bug aliens that may or may not actually be the bad guys, depending on how much you want to read into the film's subtext.
		On the gameplay front, Starship Troopers is an achingly generic FPS that revolves almost exclusively around the concept of throwing lots of enemies at you at once.

	Science Fiction Game Reviews
		In the game, the player's job is to command up to three squads of MI troopers through a series of missions, each a step closer to ending the war.
		Troopers have differing experience and skills, and it is best to take the time to match the weapons and armor with those troops best able to use them.
		Players who have played RTS games before will be way ahead here, but as in so many computer games, it comes down to luring parts of the enemy's forces out of their positions and then defeating them individually.

	WARGAME RULES FOR STARSHIP TROOPER
		In case of a board game, the battle map is the game surface and terrain can be drawn on in a colour code.
		Bunkers and buildings are destroyed; however, troopers inside may escape to an adjacent hex (inch) on a 1D6 roll of 4, 5 or 6.
		At any time the trooper player feels he is loosing, he may ask for air retrieval (if allowed in scenario) if his force is successfully retrieved, the game is a draw.

	Area 52 - Starship Troopers Miniatures Review
		Published by Mongoose Publishing (http://mongoosepublishing.com/) Starship Troopers with rules written by Andy Chambers and Miniatures sculpted by Bob Naismith, is a tabletop miniatures game inspired by the 1997 feature film, Starship Troopers (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120201/) and the resultant CGI television series, Roughnecks: The Starship Troopers Chronicles (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0190198/).
		The rest of the game mechanics are simple enough, there are no combat result tables instead miniatures are allocated a 'target' and 'kill' number, if the attacking damage dice equals or exceeds the target number then the miniature is hit and needs roll it's save number to survive.
		The other item of interest in the game play is the lack of morale rules, instead the rules contain a number of built in effects (command radius, unit leaders and losing them, flinching away from nasty weapon effects or large bugs and straying out of the command radius) which work to break up units up.

	Starship Troopers Game
		Over the months leading up to the release of our game we'll be introducing you to many of the members of the team who are bringing the vision of being part of the Mobile Infantry to life.
		If you've seen the video of game footage you'll have some idea of what they've all been up to, and I'm proud of what the team has achieved to date.
		We returned to the scenario we used for the demo, using in the main one of the levels in game where the mobile infantry fight a pitched battle against seemingly endless supplies of their bug foe.

	Starship Troopers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		According to Heinlein, his desire to write Starship Troopers dated back to 1958-04-05, when he and his wife read a newspaper advertisement placed by the National Committee for a Sane Nuclear Policy calling for a unilateral suspension of nuclear weapon testing by the United States.
		Starship Troopers is a political essay as well as a novel.
		Another accusation is that the Terran Federation is a fascist society, and that Starship Troopers is therefore an endorsement of fascism.

	Starship Troopers Roleplaying (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		By playing Starship Troopers, you can create a character who lives both in the far future as well as in your own imagination and that of your friends.
		The games Master sets the scene for his players, whether they are on a ship of the Fleet or just landing with the rest of the Mobile Infantry on a hostile alien world.
		The first, all new graphic novel based on Robert A. Heinlein's Starship Troopers, Alamo Bay is a powerful story of friction and politics within the Mobile Infantry set against the backdrop of a vicious war against the Arachnids.

	Starship Troopers (SKIRMISHER Reviews)
		This new game is not to be confused with Avalon Hill's classic wargame Starship Troopers, inspired by Robert Heinlein's book of the same name (as in the movie, the arachnids are humanity's sole foe, and the humanoid alien Skinnies remain relegated to the book and the older game).
		It is quickly apparent that the troopers have a much narrower margin for error then the bugs, and in games between inexperienced players the bugs are more likely to win.
		In games between veteran gamers, the troopers' chances even out, and if one team is more experienced than the others it is probably best for them to play the humans.

		I heard "Starship Troopers" is coming out to the X BOX, and the genius behind Halo (Bungie) will be making the game.

		the only thing i like about starship troopers is that when they kill the bugs, it is just similar to halo.

		This is a fast paced game of bugs verse MI (Mobile Infantry), where one player tries to exterminate the other.
		This keeps models out side of the threat radius from reacting with the rest of the unit which is with in the threat radius.
		Fast Game play: approximately 45 minutes for games of 500 points, add 10 minutes for each 300 points you add.

	Starship Troopers -- The Game - Reaper Message Board
		Starship Troopers actually predates GW, certainly Space Marines, and I think the desciption in the book and some competent art guys and sculptors will prove effective.
		Well Starship Troopers is over 40 years old I think it was 1959 that it was released.
		Anyway, I was reading the Mongoose's message boards, and it seems the game will be a mix between the movie, the CG show, and the book.

	Avalon Hill's Starship troopers game
		This game is faithfully based on the action described in the book, rather than on the movie or the television CG series.
		This is an involved conflict simulation game, a departure from the more common "toss dice and move" family games.
		The game is broken down into seven "scenarios", and only a few rules are added for each one; so the minimum amount of rules are learned to play the first scenario, and so on.

	IGN: Starship Troopers Preview
		That said, I was pretty excited when Empire dropped by to show off their new video game adaptation of the movie/book (I put it in that order as the movie is a much bigger inspiration than the book here) simply titled Starship Troopers.
		As you might expect, the game is all about slaughtering countless Bugs and ensuring the survival of mankind… with a little bit of that genocidal cream we like to call nuclear power.
		Nineteen total types of bugs made it into the game including typical soldiers, the tanker bugs that spit acid, the flying hoppers, and even the blobby brain bug, the capture of which is the overall goal of the game.
