The best rules are 25 years old and out of print (I think)! |

Spearhead and the various scenario supplements are available to buy from Caliver Books (UK) and Military Matters (USA). Robert |

Yes my Bro-In-Law just worked up a nice collection of GHQ models and stands. Pulled out Spearhead. Refreshing the rules, it's still a great game! |

I strongly suspect that Spearhead are the most popular 6m rules, but if a big game means a big playing area I have seen some very large FFT3 games as well. If big games mean large formations, such as divisions and corps, rules which cater for other scales may be more appropriate, such as KISS Rommel. I did an analysis of every set of rules I owned a while ago and created a set of videos, starting with squad scale and moving up to battalion scale. |
