Some Corner of a Foreign Field – WWII Edition
Publisher: Morningstar Productions
Some Corner of a Foreign Field – WWII Edition is a squad-level game for four to 15 models per side. Using just a d20 or two, it models close-range infantry firefights on boards from 2 x 2 to 8 x 8, anywhere from Normandy to the Far East. Make sure you bring plenty of cover, because if you're hit, there's a good chance you're going down – better to not get seen at all!
Including rules for off-board support, casualties and morale under fire, Some Corner of a Foreign Field is a quick-and-easy game to get the blood pumping and the bullets flying. This edition has been subtly tweaked from the original modern version of the game, in response to the many playtesters who used it for games set in WWII rather than the War on Terror, to provide a game that more accurately reflects the difficulties of leading a squad in the War of Wars.
These rules are also available as part of the original Some Corner of a Foreign Field download file.
Originally written for 20-28mm models, the game works just as well for 15mm models and smaller if distances are reduced to centimeters, and for 40mm+ if all distances are doubled.
