"I Ain't Been Nuked, Mum" Rules?
« on: September 09, 2019, 04:43:50 AM »
Yes, it's been a while, but time to ask about these again - "I Ain't Been Nuked, Mum" rules for the Cold War (a spin off, or outgrowth of their WWII rules).

Anyone still testing or developing these, or have they reached a dead end?

I seem to recall quite a few nice battle reports with great photos of them, back in the day.

Would love to see them released, since they looked like just the thing for company level actions.

The full rules haven’t been released, and I have no idea about whether or not they remain in development as a stand-alone product, BUT they did release a version last year as an article in “Lard Mag 2018”. The Lard Mags replace the twice-annual Specials magazines.

I haven’t played the IABSM Cold War rules yet, but they seem like they would get a person started. The main limitation that I can see is that they focus on Cold War goes hot in the 1980s, so it would take a bit of work to use the rules for actual wars during the period and during the 60s and 70s.
