One small change to the above (already reflected in the PDF download) --- ATGM/TOW doesn't take a -1 to hit penalty at long range. |

I'd drop Assault rifles to 18" range (more due to training at closer ranges) |

Thanks you very much for doing this & sharing it with us. |

I've seen another modern variant that includes a mod to the unit cohesion rule. It allows a square to be split so you can "drop off" an LMG to cover the squad as it moves or assaults. A handy rule that let's you use more realistic small unit tactics. |

It's 'breachers', not 'breechers'. Unless they're breaching someone's breeches, which…wait, different game. Maybe. :) That aside…I'm more interested in this for scifi, than Gates of Antares! |

First, thanks all!! LOL!! Breechers!! Fixed and reposted here: link @Sabre6: Not sure I agree 100% … I think playability is better at 24" … @David Manley: Good thinking … I struggled with doing something like that … wasn't sure if it would make things to "fiddly" … I was going to mess with it in some future games before adding anything around that … but hey, you can certainly do it in the mean time :-) |

Infantry walks 50m in one turn but you only get one shot of a pistol? Something screwy with the time and distance scale. |

@cmdr kevin: Good point … that was just pulled over straight from the regular BA rules … but really should be 2 shots … added to my list of updates :-) Thanks! |
