5.56mm

By Top That! Publishing PLC

25/28mm modern skirmish system. Rules cover infantry and vehicles. Players are intended to use about a squad each. The game relies on a card based activation system - each character is assigned a card and activates when it is drawn. Elite characters get a second card but receive fewer actions when it comes up. Task rolls are done with a single six-sided die and generally scale by distance. Better trained characters receive a larger bonus to their tests. Damage is an opposed roll (damage versus strength) and can inflict death or one of several wound states. Wounds reduce movement and penalize a character on skill tests. The morale rules are tucked away in the back of the rules, but boil down to checking morale for certain casualty-based triggers. The rulebook does not provide a points or scenario system, though there is a system for generating squads. Wargames Journal has published at least one scenario for the game as a free PDF download.
