Papercraft tabletop monster combat strategy game

Big Big Battles: Crawly Combat is a forthcoming tabletop miniatures combat game where you cut out, assemble and color the tokens.

Any thing that creeps and squeaks is fair in a game of Crawly Combat. The premier set of the miniatures system Big Big Battles, Crawly Combat is an all ages miniatures game with rules so easy a child could comprehend and yet enough play value to keep even adults coming back for more.

Ah, I was expecting monsters, not bugs.

I was expecting Big Bug Battles, not Big "Big" Battles...

Insecta from Fat Messiah Games is similar, but doesn't have papercraft bugs (unless you think cutting chits off a sheet is papercraft.) But it's a very well designed game, and a good way to learn different bug species. The players play a mutant bug, but all of the enemy bugs in the hive accurately portray real bugs. It's usually played "all against the hive", a-la Heroquest or Descent.

And the guys who run the (small) game company are really cool. Too bad it's out of print, currently.

If you like that, you might also like Mechaton by Vincent Baker. It's a tabletop mecha wargame where you build your pieces out of Lego.
