My brother and I have been working on these rules for two years and now we are ready to introduce them here on TMP.
The rules are $15 USD plus postage. Here's what you get:

1. Complete set of play tested rules.
2. Sample turns with illustrations.
3. 2D copies of all required miniatures for first time players. (BTW, you can use FOW mounting for most of the army pieces if you choose)
4. Seven scenarios.
5. Loads of helpful diagrams for the "visual learners."
6. 4 color front back cover's with comb binding for easy reading on the wargaming table.

Here's a link to our website and thanks for looking!!

Do the ants require a human player, or can they be just given some simple programmed behaviour patterns? I wondering if it could be a good co-op game.

This looks interesting. I have been gathering miniatures to do something like this for awhile. I just needed rules to use. Now it looks like I am all set.

We've actually got three different 15mm scale giant ants -- the soldier and worker radi-ants and THOSE, which are black ants much smaller than the radi-ants. So we welcome our myrmidon overlords!

Curufea,

Ant colonies require a human player or players. The rules include tunnel sections, ants (worker & soldier), army squads, jeeps and markers that you can photocopy. However I would highly recommend the Khurasan Miniatures for the ants, they appear to be a perfect fit. For the US Army we used Command Decision WWII and QRF US Korean War troops for a little historical film flavor :) The basing is very similar to FOW.

Thank you all for your interest.
