Anyone else tried this out yet?

Hope you like It!

I gave Up that project because I didn't like the RoSD rules system (specially that fiddly d20), but as I love weird ww2 After making Fear of the Dark I decided to come back to my roots and make a ww2 (and weird ww2) solo skirmish wargame.

I'm almost finishing It, making a few more scenarios and once everything is finished I'll edit the layout. I Hope It doesn't take too long.

I'm not familiar with RoSD, but could the swingyness of d20 be softened by using 2d10?

I used to do that, and the probabilities change a lot. I think its better, but many players like that swingyness (not me, of course)

I haven't found the swinginess to be that bad, or maybe I just don't mind it.
