Here is a few photos of playtesting one of the basic scenarios of USX: Modern Day Heroes, pitting Deep Ones against a SWAT team.

It is just terrain :) it is some death world xacti I did for rogue trader settings, but I used them here too as I don't have much modern/cthulhu orientedvterrain.

I think they were pretty easy to follow and good enough for basic gaming. My main problem is that it doesn't seem to be supported by RAFM anymore, so it is hard to come up with stats and point values for characters and monsters.

So for the reasons above I will probably only play the two basic scenarios for convention gaming and not evolve on the system and scenarios. Which is a shame.

This is Universal Soldier, right?

RAFM had a USX KS awhile back, but cancelled the funding. Drop 'em a note and offer your playtesting services. I think their mistake was to make a generic fantasy battle USX system. A Cthulhu one might work.

Many of the Cthulhu monster stats are here:
http://rafm.com/phpbb3/download/monsterStats1.pdf

Heroes stats are here:
http://rafm.com/phpbb3/download/USXHeroes.pdf

You can use this system for your campaign game and level up your Heroes or a "gang".
http://rafm.com/Storage/USX/USX%20Post%20Apocalyptic%20Campaign%20Rules.pdf - These are post apocalyptic based but they have the different Cthulhu monsters in it.
You can choose from these different "gangs". It also has skill rules you can add to your games, but we do not suggest them unless you are used to the basic rules.
The Factions
Remnant Forces
SWAT
The Iron Brethren
Mi-go
Elder Things
Deep Ones
The Hasturites
The Dragonflies
Cultists
Pyramid Corporation
Survivors – Modern Day Heroes or Mercenaries for Hire

It also has scenarios you can play. Hope this helps

Oh and its all free to download. If there is anything you are missing we can probably did it up for you as well.
