The figs get better and better, and I get more and more tempted. I don't really have any experience wuith gaming this genre other than the Gamma World RPG back in the day. Anyone have any recommendations for a good skirmish set that fits the character of the figs? I was thinking you might be able to do something with Necromunda--which I have tucked away somewhere...

I am planning on using the Foundry Streetfight rules available for free download from http://www.thewarstore.com/product6048.html, these are the same basic system as "The Rules With No Name", and work really well, in a campaign mode and are good for multiplayer games, I have already designed many additions to tie in with the LAM figures/STALKER setting (Shotgun rules, Event cards, Mutants etc.).
Once I have finished painting my first batch of figures I will post up a battle report, hopefully by end of this month.

My favorite rules are here...

I find the entire site very inspirational. Explore it and you'll see what I mean.

I have used them for Post-apocalyptic, Pulp, Cthulhu, Zombies, Dinosaur hunts, capturing King Kong, Gangsters, and sci-fi games.

I second the vote for Skank. I also like the Nuclear Renaissance 2 rules by Ramshackle for this kind of gaming.

I used a complete revision of the Necromunda rules, but I am actually more impressed with a set of Fallout specific rules based on the 'Weird Krieg' system that someone sent me some time back. It has a better Fallout feel to me, and the 'Munda system breaks down after a few rounds in a campaign.

Given that you have the Necromunda rules, and the other sets mentioned are available free iirc, you can try them all till you find what you like best.

--- Hopefully their new version will take care of that.

Cheers man! Coincidence too, as I've worked some more on the rules today...it's getting closer and closer to a finished version. Campaign system is almost done (important part to complete though: the cost of everything) and then it's time for the different force lists.

Check out the Wasteland rules on the P/A site. The latest version should be posted today.

I'll second the Wastelands 3 Meltdown rules. The newest version has been
released. The PDF file is free. Campaign system, scenarios and all. I really like
it and can't say enough about them! Check it out!

Is there any way to download Meltdown without signing up for file dropper?

I downloaded it just fine without signing up for anything.

Me and Torben (Phoenikuz) played Wasteland Meltdown yesterday and felt it was missing something after the first game and was a little predictable and boring. So second game we added in the activation system from SoBH and a new stat - Quality and it seemed to work much better. Though the bike rules also need amendment as Torben's bike almost singlehandedly drove down my forces.
