I have made a free introductory version of my WWII small unit rules, A Sergeant's War, available at the Wargame Vault. The introductory version of the game includes the basic rules for infantry combat and two starter scenarios. It is 25 pages long, 19 of which are the rules. The rest are introductory/designer notes, a table of contents, and the scenarios.

It is available here link

A Sergeant's War emphasizes troop quality and morale as well as small unit leaders, who help you pass morale tests and withstand enemy fire. You track casualties individually but your minis fight in units of 3-8 troops. A full description of the game can be found here link , and a play-by-play run through can be found here link

If you already have the full version of the game, the starter scenarios could still be of use to you.

Thanks for looking!

Wicked, thanks for sharing!

You kids should go download this.
It has some very clever ideas about how to handle leadership in low level gaming.

For those of us that already have the full version, is the material presented or formatted in any different way in this one?

@Cheesesailor: I don't think so. Some of the exceptions and special cases have been left out of the intro version, and there are no illustrations other than examples of play and maps.
