Hi All,
has anyone ever tried this? does it work?
I have a lot of 6mm modern angolan/ sadf/ cubans and i was wondering if the rules could be adapted for unit bases for the squads?
Just a thought....

Im sure it can be done, having jumped into 6mm in several periods, the problem of basing for diffeent rule systemsis a nightmare so i have decided to base myNaps on polemos basing sytem but i see no need to rebase for other rule systems, it only take a little understanding fromboth sides how the ratio needs to be addapted. Had ago with 6mm FoW , last year i believe , and we kept the ranges etc them. Only had to scale down the AoE of barrage as it was taking the whole town out The only other thing i have found is that some book keeping is needed depending on base/rules/casualies.

FoF grew from a squad level skirmish game (Ambush Alley). The larger games we've played started to become quite unmanageable once you have 20-30 troops per side with a few vehicles thrown in.
If you're after using it for 6mm skirmish on your kitchen table then it would be fine, but if your using it for larger battles then you should use WRG Moderns, Tankwreck or our current favourite, GHQ's Micro-Armour rules

thanks guys,
I was thinking a 3 x 3 table and running some of the bush wars supplement games? its mainly because these are one of the few sets of rules i have seen that have the SADF vehicle stats in (Ratels, Rooikats etc...)
Hopefully this wont make it too unmanageable..
Maybe we can arrange a tester some time if you are keen.

Yeah, no worries. I'm fully booked until April I think. Give me a shout on Monday and we can compare diaries!
