yep I've started to sculpt Ul'mor, edestakai, and some eorna miniatures to use. plus there is a really cool plastic model of a crashed shuttle/ fighter from Games Workshop's Battle of Macragge which seems to be OOP which is ok as I got the sprues with the crashed ship sections plus some force feild fence pieces (4 total) for $2 off ebay last year. The force feild fence pieces will come in handy for the part of the battle where the PCs have to take down the sathar force field to allow the charge of the Ul-mor
plus the crashed ship terrain piece work well for the crashed life boat and in conjunction with a 1 inch grid battle map its easy enough to let the PCs to move away from the life boat till it blows and anyone within the the specified number of meters off any part of the crashed terrain pieces takes damage.
I haven't put too much thought into the land battle as I have one 6 player group stalled at the point of killing the quick death in SF-0 and the other is still on the Serrena Dawn.

EDIT: i just checked: now that the Battle for Macragge box set is OOp the price for just the terrain pieces in it seems to be about $20 dollars which is steep especially if someone is selling partially or badly painted pieces.
I might not be a dralasite, vrusk or yazirian but I do play one in Star Frontiers!
