Model counts for Weird War gaming

[pixelgeek]

We have a new question for the Ask TGN seciton of the site that is asking about mini counts for some of the various Weird War rulesets.

I thought that perhaps some of the regulars here might help out not only with some replies but perhaps to help fill out the list of rulesets that I filled in

BTW Brian we've linked to your site so perhaps you can give the readers an idea of what sort of mini counts are typical under your rules.

[Weird WWII]

In the Battleground WWII rules you can play with as little as a couple minis to as many as you can realistically field on your gaming table.  Because we play 25mm - 32mm we usually stick with no more than platoon size and as little as a half squad of men.  I've played company level with this system and unless you are very familiar with the rules I would suggest against it.  It's a great historical heavy system and is easily modified to Weird War, modern or sci-fi with just a little tweaking.  It's one of the best gaming rules sets I have ever played and would suggest it to anyone who is looking for a skirmish level system for WWII or your Weird War II gaming. You can get the rules from the link below and can often find the sets on e-bay.

Is Easy Eight no longer in business?

[Weird WWII]

The guys are AWOL and even their distributors have trouble tracking them down.  They are technically still around but they are not expanding the range.  These guys made an incredible system but they have chosen to not further the system for reason unknown.  I have no affiliation to EEE other than a avid fan, this is why all the rules are free and I take no credit other then my mods for their system.  Others have tried to purchase the system or get them to franchise it out but to no avail.  They detailed WWII extensively so their is nothing lacking in the system for that time frame and like i said the system can very easily be modified to just about any modern time frame.
