Machine Guns and Ballot Boxes

The rules allow games from the start of World War Two until present day warfare, including games for insurgent warfare. Examples being: The Indio-China Wars, Vietnam and the insurgent conflicts through the 1960s to the present day.

The rules introduce airborne/air assaults, helicopters and smoke bombardments.

The design philosophy of the rule set provides a simple approach that can be used to play games irrespective of the figure scale (6mm, 10mm, 15mm, 25mm and even 1/32 scale). This is so that you can use your current collection of figures without any changes. The rules focus on command and control as opposed to a traditional approach of distinct and detailed weapon factors. By taking a light, very broad-brush approach, large games can be played in a few hours. Also the rules allow for both skirmish and unit based games.
