I know this is an older set of rules and no longer supported but I wonder if anyone is still using them or has used them in the past. Our group still uses them and I wonder what others experience has been. |

Written in the 80's originally and last published 2005? Scale is 1:1 for both vehicles and infantry. LTC Conard was an Army historian. Pretty straight forward and simple armor rules. The infantry rules offer a bit more complexity though not much. The sequence of play is simultaneous/sequential divided into phases. TO&E rosters are featured for the infantry. Casualties are subtracted from the roster until an element has been eliminated. I know that he had rosters for WWII through the end of the Cold War. We have only concerned ourselves with WWII. |

Unless you have permission for micro-armor to be in your title from GHQ, then you may run into some difficulty using it.
back in 1984 I was told by the GHQ owner at Origins to remove the name micro-armor from my rules title for face legal action. Mine was a similar tank vs tank skirmish and mass action set of rules.
Just a heads up. |

looks for scenario material in a World War IV boardgame.
