I'm usually willing to put up with a generic/abstract combat systems in games, but sometimes I'm willing to invest the time and effort in more detail. Can anyone recommend a set of fantasy skirmish rules where there's more distinction between weapons and armor, where hits go to particular spots (rather than just mark off 2 of 5 "health points," and maybe tactics matter? |

Perhaps you could mix aspects of a rpg combat system, in with your current skirmish system? |

It won't check all of the boxes you mentioned, but I think the old Ares skirmish rules had some nice crunch to them while remaining intuitive. |

Battlelust by Colombia games. It's excellent and highly detailed. |
