A tactical wargame with action-packed miniature skirmishes on an individual level, set during World War Two.
The goal of Burst of Fire is to create a realistic, tactically challenging, atmospheric, and fun gaming experience. Up to six people can play. Each player will put together a detachment that belongs to an infantry, support or armored doctrine.
The shape of the detachment is determined by the doctrine. Detachments may consist of commanding officers, squad leaders, soldiers, support weapons, vehicles, and/or planes.
When putting your force together, you have to make multiple decisions:
- Do I want to have a more mobile or static force?
- Which main and side weapons will my soldiers use?
- What additional equipment do they bring to the battlefield?
- Shall I rely on battle-hardened veterans or rookies that have not seen any action on the field yet?
- Do I salvage enemy weapons or solely rely on my own?
Units on the field will have to deal with the physical and mental strain of combat situations, as well as unforeseen events.
Burst of Fire is heavily inspired by miniature games like Bolt Action, Chain of Command, and Warhammer, but also by conflict simulations like Conflict of Heroes, and computer games like Company of Heroes and Assault Squad.
Action Point Counter, Combat Score Card, Random Event and Effect Cards and Effect Tokens included. Print on vinyl sticker paper or photo paper for best results.
