Special Rules

Cards – Orders (1 or 2 are placed face down under/beside each Model (Card) at the start of each turn which will enable the Models to act). RALLY, MOVE, FIRE, SENTRY, GRENADE).

Cards - Rules & Activation (Each player has a set of these shuffled in a face down pile to then activate the Models by flipping over the top card alternately between players until no more cards are left, then start a new turn, determine initiative by ro-sham-bo unless only one player has a commander left, then they activate a model first). Variations can include more than one of a certain type, then when a card is drawn for that type of Model, the owner can choose which to activate – the number of cards in play match the number of cards for activation. (COMMANDER, SNIPER, HEAVY WEAPON, CLOSE ASSAULT, POWER-ARMOURED, GRENADIER, VEHICLE).

Cards – Models (the cards used to represent the figures – line of sight, visibility arc and forward facing is taken from the top edge of the card): (COMMANDER, SNIPER, HEAVY WEAPON, CLOSE ASSAULT, POWER-ARMOURED, GRENADIER, VEHICLE).

To play Missions (rather than last man standing) one or more player may include either a V.I.P. or an ENGINEER.

The following is for editing purposes:

The point cost of each Model is found in the top right-hand corner - Agree on a point total for a battle and ensure that for each Model there is a corresponding Activation card.

Activation cards are kept face down and are shuffled for random activation unless you have a Commander, in which case you may order them to your preference but once the turn has begun, they may not be rearranged. If you flip over the top card of the Activation deck and no Model can be matched, this does not forfeit your initiative, instead flip your next card over until you do find a match. When both players have depleted their Activation decks, the current turn is over and a new turn begins by re-allocating orders and readying the Activation decks.

Rules Clarification A Model may pass without using and revealing it's second order. Each time a Model reveals an order it must be carried out fully before either passing initiative or revealing a second order for the same model.

If not Pinned, a Commander may spend his Rally Order(s) to Rally friendly models in its LOS.

Speed for Heavy Weapon and the following new Models is 15cm max per order.

Flamethrower Fire order cannot fail but requires discarding two Fire orders to lay out enough Flame cards to cover 30cm in a straight line, any Models partially covered are killed. Vehicles and Power-Armoured are unaffected by Flame. May optionally use conventional Fire Orders with side-arm pistol (range 30cm).

Flame Hazard Removed as with smoke. Models cannot enter Flame unless they are Vehicles or Power-Armoured.
