Back in Blighty

Hi Chaps,

just a quick hello! I have missed my hobby and being able to read about your exploits but that will all change in the coming weeks. I will post a few pics of Asian architecture but these reference photos will stand for Sierra Leone and probably a lot more of Africa as well....

What rules would you chaps use for modern small scale wars? I have Force on Force but I do not like them at all....any other options? Does any company still carry At Close Quarters?

Thanks in advance....

  2. Have you tried Chain Reaction? It's free from Two Hour Wargames.

    Cheers,

  3. Skirmish Sangin is quite popular in my part of the world, may be worth a look.

  6. Yeah it should be similar- though the latest free version has the most up to date rule changes:

    Compare and see which you like best- our group tends to use an amalgamation anyway.

    Cheers,

  8. I use modified Bolt Action rules for modern and Vietnam as the Kids grasp it real quick (I use wargaming as a tool to teach kids military history). Simple and playable
