Future Wars rules
« on: January 04, 2015, 10:55:14 PM »
HELLO

Really like the Copplestone minis for my pulp games.
Today decided to buy some Future Wars minis.
Found out there was a original Future Wars rulebook.
Is it still somewhere available?
Thanks for your help!

I have the rules (not selling) and they are good but NOT brilliant. They use a pin system not too dissimilar to bolt action and the use of direct and suppressive fire. Removing figures is tough so they are most definitely a skirmish set with only a few figures per side.

Forlorn Hope Games has the old Grenadier Future Warriors: http://www.forlornhopegames.co.uk/future-skirmish

Copplestone does his own complimentary range: http://www.copplestonecastings.co.uk/range.php?range=FW

I have 66 painted future wars figures, a mix of Copplestone (almost the entire range) and Wargames Foundry, along with the coolest one future wars rules that I am in the process of getting together to sell.  

Will post them on the for sale thread during the week.  
Just in case you were interested
