Simple skirmish rules for a handfull of cards - aka "soldiers" per player.

Special Rules

Each soldier has 4 stats: Shoot, Endure, React, Move. Both players have one of each soldier. Soldiers do not block line of sight. Each time initiative swaps, players may choose any of their soldiers, even the soldier who performed an initiative previously, to Move then Shoot or Shoot then Move. Initiative will swap after completion of one soldiers initiative or when a Move is successfully interrupted by an enemy soldiers' React roll. Whenever a six is rolled, re-roll the dice adding all results towards a total score.

Shoot

Soldiers have a forward fire arc of 90 degrees which grants a line of sight that extends out diagonally from the top corners of their card. There is no range limit. Roll 1D6 for each number allocated in the Shoot stat and compare this to the target soldiers' Endure total (they also roll 1D6 for each number allocated for their Endure stat). A higher Shoot total eliminates the target soldier. The soldier may then move if they have not already done so, then the initiative passes to the opponent who chooses any one of their soldiers to activate.

Endure

Explained above (only ever used in response to being the target of a Shoot activation).

React

Whenever a Move is made in the line of sight of any enemy soldier, their controller may make one React attempt with one soldier that has line of sight to the Move. Declare the soldier making the React attempt and roll 1D6 per number allocated their React stat. This is compared to the moving soldiers' Move roll total and if the React roll is greater than the Move roll, the moving soldier is stopped anywhere along its move path and the initiative switches to the soldier who reacted.

Move

Turning counts as the start and end of a Move. Movement is only conducted in a straight line, and will trigger a React attempt by the opponent if the movement is in at least one of their soldiers lines of sight. Before rolling for movement, declare the direction the soldier will travel. The soldier must move exactly that amount of card lengths along the declared direction. Movement will be halted before its end point if it connects with a soldier or terrain OR by a successful React attempt. When an enemy soldier is connected with this stops movement and that soldier is killed outright. If the Move was made by a soldier who has already used a Shoot in the same activation, the initiative will pass to the opponent, otherwise they may shoot. Note: If a soldier would move out of bounds, halt them at the edge instead.
