I've added a listing for this ruleset. Thanks to the publishers for making it available for reference.

Waiting for my copy to arrive. Was sold by this review.

Sounds like an interesting take on the variable turn concept. I like the sound of it.

It uses a deck of cards instead of dice.

I have the book and will be running a game next week. Very impressed by what I have read thus far. Having been in this hobby for almost 5 decades, seen lots of games, rules, systems and alike, I would describe the system as simply elegant.

Is it suitable for a 2'x 2'tabletop using 1/72 plastic miniatures?

I concur with Fusilier Dan about the review -- it's great for understanding what this game is all about. I'm VERY interested in this as a quick & dirty rule set to play some genres/periods that we don't normally play. From the sound of it, this would work well as a convention game too since the rules are simple.

Sounds like an ingenious system!

I picked up the rules this week…sounds like an interesting way to keep players engaged during a card based system with the opposed rolls…er, I mean opposed cards. :)

I'd like to give it a try. Will look for a seller!

Ah, Amazon has it. Easy-peasy.
