Any Interest in a set of Spy rules?
« on: 13 June 2010, 05:21:05 PM »
I've been putting notes together for a set of skirmish rules based on 60's spy novels and movies. The rules are going to cover small scale skirmish settings (1-10 models per side). I'll admit to there not being a lot new to do with basic skirmish rules and there are several sets out that can accommodate spy action if properly modified. However I am working on some rules for Intelligence/Counter-Intelligence that would add a new twist and give the game more of a spy feel.

Is there an audience for the game? I'm nearing a point where I would take on playtesters. I do plan on finishing and releasing these rules. I wrote a set of rules for Rattrap, so I am capable of finishing what I start but it would be cool to know if there was any real interest.

Sounds interesting.
Do you want to base it on the 45er rules?

I like all kind of Small Skirmish, and your idea sounds to be something "fresh".

You can count me in ;)

This will not be based on the .45 Adventure games. I'm looking to create a new system

count me in ,only thing that stopped me getting in to gaming the genre more was the lack of good rules that cover the period properly

I would like to try your spy-fi rules! My secret agents from Copplestone are dying to fight sharks with laser cannons, evil geniuses with bald heads and harpoon armed bikini babes on tropical islands!  8)

I would be interested as well. Adding intelligence/counter-intelligence to the game mechanics sounds like an excellent idea for the genre. It always has seemed a shame that there were no specific rules for the Kiss Kiss Bang Bang model range(s).

I would also be interested.  I'm just about to start building a table for KKBB games (and spent the past weekend planning/plotting. Muhaahaahaaa... >:D).
I have ideas for modifying an existing ruleset but would be interested in a bespoke set for this and other games.
