Future Combat is the latest game in the Victory Decision line. A lot of talk about the game and some polls already happened on the ViDe WWII forum here on LAF. Initially it started under project name “Planetfall”, but after Spartan Games announced a game under that name, I decide to rename it in Future Combat.
Short description
I added a lot of new stuff to the WW II and Gear Krieg rules. Best thing most of these rules can also be used in any of the other books! For a more in depth look into what is new, feel free to read the Design Notes (excerpt from the book-> http://www.adpublishing.de/html/fuco_design_notes.html).
Victory Decision: Future Combat is a comprehensive game system to using SF Infantry units and Armoured Fighting Vehicles in Victory Decision.
Included are rules for Zombies and a Low Tech army lists that is well suited for PA gaming.
These rules cover almost all aspects of Science Fiction wargaming, from Troop Quality and Leadership to Air Strikes, Bunker Assaults, Combat in Buildings, Vehicle and VTOL combat.
Victory Decision: Future Combat features a unique Leadership-modified alternate unit activation system with an integrated Electronic Warfare aspect. The result is a fun and fast paced war game that involves both players constantly. The rules cover individually based infantry miniatures and also group- or multibased miniatures, aka Infantry Stands. While designed with 20-28 mm miniatures in mind the Victory Decision game system is flexible enough to handle any miniatures from 6 mm to 32 mm. So whatever your existing miniature collection consists of, you can start playing right away.
This rulebook not only provides 8 generic Scenarios but also point based Force lists that can be used to represent many classic SF settings. All necessary Game Markers are also included within this book.
As with our previous books you get a full colour version with many high quality pictures of fully painted models and a mostly B&W printer friendly version.

Publisher: Two Hour Wargames
Format: PDF and/or soft cover
Source: http://www.twohourwargames.com/afterhorsemen.html
Setting is PA specific
Target scale: Works with any scale, best with 15/28mm
Dice Used: D6
Number of players: 1-4, solitaire suitability is high; you can also play more than four without adding too much extra down time. Players can play against each other coop vs. NPCs run by the game mechanics.
Board size: 2-foot square and up. Some games could be played on smaller boards
Environment: Not defined, but the terrain generator within the rules give dense woods as an option, so perhaps “temperate” environment.
Terrain: All terrains
Vehicle movement: Some, but somewhat abstract; player moves from encounter to encounter via vehicle, and can encounter enemies riding in vehicles, but there don’t seem to be any driving/vehicle movement rules. Upcoming Machinas rules will add vehicle combat as an option.
Zombies/infected: None*
Monsters/mutants: None*
Campaign element: Yes
*Zombies and mutants can easily be added using stats from Two Hour Wargames’ other PA ruleset, “All Things Zombie,” which shares the same mechanics.
