I forgot about the free momentum 1 and the free implosia over at rray.de
For this job, those did the trick.
Thanks for the advice.
oh and Stefan... Blender... Really??
No one has time to learn that interface, I would rather erase my memory
and learn the zbrush interface again, before I try and do something more
than import/export in blender. (I'm kidding of course before this starts
a flame war.)

momentum and implosia... done..
You can break up with ICE

but you will need to extract the islands individually to run with
vanilla bullet rbds..
And ICE shatter has issues with complex shapes, lots of concavities.
Which is where Implosia shines.
The default shattering with momentum is ok, but pales next to IFX
the two plugins should really become one, so interdependent they are.
Andy Moorer has this ICE plug thats pretty cool
Emit SRT Matched Instances

could provide useful for you...

The hours you spend on trying to get that to work you could have spent
on buying a Momentum or ImplosiaFX license :)
Here are two things you can do.
1.) Brute force method
But you can break up the mesh with ice and then freeze the geo, and
then extract the pieces. Then use those to simulate.
2.) OpenSource
Do it in Blender. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IV0j4h2zERs
I would chose Option 2, but that's me... :)
