Steam Wars: 28mm Tabletop Wargaming

This is Steam Wars, World War Zero. These rules have been created by a few friends for a steampunk wargames setting. However, these rules are quite generic and could easily be used in a near future or far future sci-fi setting. In an alternative 1862, technology took a sideways step from our own history and set the world on a path to a very different steampunk alternate reality. In this steampunk world, the miniaturisation of steam powered machines and the integrating of Charles Babbage’s Difference Engine allows all manner of weird and astounding contraptions to be created. Industry and innovation flourished, resources to feed the industrial nations became crucial. By 1877 the world had changed, nations fought with steam powered war machines and the latest in steam tech infantry weaponry. Such advances had been monitored from afar and there had been reports of strange metallic spheres embedded into the countryside. Could these be Martians? —description from the rulebook
