Summary : Many wargamers enjoy the challenge of skirmish games where, instead of the strategy of vast armies portrayed by traditional wargames, the focus is on the tactics of a small unit. However, skirmish rules are often so complex that it can take hours of rolling dice, consulting tables and recording data to recreate what would in reality be a fast and furious firefight lasting just minutes. Now these new rules make it possible to recapture the speed and intensity of these actions where every man, and every second, counts. The basic rules are supported by sections which give special rules and scenarios to capture the flavor of a range of different periods, from Napoleonic to Modern Warfare and beyond with Sci-Fi. From the 95th Rifles scouting for Wellington, Western gunfights and WWI trench raids, through WW2 parachute assaults or Special Forces strikes in Afghanistan, or even Space Marines storming a space station, Squad Firefights elegantly simple system allows you to focus on proper tactical decisions rather than rolling buckets of dice or calculating masses of modifiers.

Summary : Patriotism's for those who have never been to War. Susan Ulrich is a seasoned avionics engineer. Brian Ulrich, Jason Duhamel and Jedidiah Williams are US marines. But no amount of training can prepare them for the horror that confronts them after returning from a day's paintball skirmish: the smouldering ruins of their lodgings and the twenty bullet-ridden corpses of its other residents. And on meeting the surly Gulf War veteran and owner of the paintball lodge, the four are soon thrust into a desperate struggle that will demand more than their own survival. With ten billion dollars of munitions at stake and a ruthless militia vying to claim them, the race is on to expose the venal politics enshrouding the issue and thwart an initiative to arm every extremist in the East with the finest modern weapons available. "An action packed tale of camaraderie and triumph against diversity. Never a dull moment. One for the good guys." - Ben Hyde, The Advertiser

Summary : Chosen Men is a set of fast-action skirmish rules detailing the bloody skirmishes between light troops in the Napoleonic Wars. The primary focus of the game is on soldiers and NCOs in light 'flank' companies, as they scout ahead of larger forces and take part in man-to-man actions against enemy skirmishers. Although the game allows for the formation of accurately sized companies of light infantry and cavalry if you wish, these formations are broken down into small groups of up to a dozen men. For the most part, officers are not swashbuckling super-heroes, but staunch commanders who rally and direct their men to achieve the battlefield objectives. Although the game uses an alternating action turn sequence, officers can use their influence on multiple units at the same time in an effort to steal the initiative. With all rolls resolved using standard 6-sided dice, this game combines a classic wargaming feel with modern wargame mechanics.
