Welcome to my 6mm page. I have been interested in 6mm SF for a while,
I knew what style of game I wanted, but not the rules. I have tried out a
few. I hope this page will help you in deciding on the style of game
and the rules. Rules
Which rules you use is up to you, but I
might be able to help you to decide.
A basic set rules that I can recommend is Iron Cow by
Wessex
Games (They also available from
Brigade Models). Also Dirtside II is a must, even if you do
not use them, because they have loads of ideas and can be downloaded for
free from the Ground Zero Games
web site. Anther set of rules is Epic by
Games
Workshop. The is the current version is Epic; Armageddon (Rule book or
a free download
from the Games Workshop web site) and
there is also NetEpic, based on a older version of Epic, but very popular
(Check out the NetEpic web site).
Also there is Command Horizon (free download from
web site) and Dark Realm
Miniatures has their own
Rules. Also a new set of rules call Future Wars Commander,
available from Specialist
Military Publishing. There are more rules systems available. Check out the
Free Wargames Rules web
site for some interesting SF rules, I am trying out
Prophecy of War (more info).
Miniatures
There is a large range of miniatures available if you know where to look,
including other scales. I do used 10mm Mechs and Tanks for large war
machines and 10mm Armoured Infantry as 6mm Battle Armoured Infantry.
Here are a few links to miniatures companies web sites.
