I was really excited to try this set of rules. Alas, it is not printable! Oh well, now I have to hunt down a copy.

I couldn't agree with Tim Coombes more! I bought the rules after reading the free dev pack download rules, which I was going to use with the Back of Beyond supplement Agis published a few months ago. Now, you're probably thinking "Why would you pay for a ruleset that's free (albeit, without the pretty photos)"? Simple answer: The set is very nicely prepared, the rules are easy to play, but involved enough to challenge you, they're very well supported by A.D. Publishing and most importantly, to me, anyway, THEY'RE FUN!!!! And when I can, I support the hobby by spending my money to continue the Excellent support like this ruleset has!

I'd forgotten how much FUN wargaming really is! Great Job, Agis!! You've made me believe in the hobby again!

Initially I wasn't going to buy these rules but Mongoose Publishing changed all that with their Open Content license. WW2 games tend to be theatre specific, which in itself isn't bad but it does mean that you are limited to what you can or can't play until the publisher decides to release a book covering that theatre. There is a lot of content out there for WaW and it seems to be growing almost daily.

As for the rules, the fit the three critera I expect from any good game:

  • Simple core rules (although no rules for grenades?!? sigh).
  • The details are where they belong: in the army lists.
  • Use the miniatures you have: no game specific basing.

I look forward to playing these rules a lot, now if only Mongoose can get the Pacific book out soon.
