Description

Your platoon has clawed its way forward under heavy fire---but can they make it the last few yards and kick the enemy off the hill?

Find out with a Sergeant’s War, a WWII minatures game which emphasizes morale, unit quality, and small-unit leaders. A typical force is a platoon of infantry backed up with heavy weapons and armor. Units of maneuver are individual vehicles, squads and half-squads of infantry, and heavy weapon teams.

This is the free introductory version of the game, which includes the basic rules for infantry and two starter scenarios. It is a stand alone game. The full version is available on the Wargame Vault.

• Fast play—2 hours or less
• Easy combat mechanics—infantry fire, anti-tank fire, and close-range firefights all use the same basic to-hit mechanic
• Importance of leaders—your squad and platoon leaders are critical to keep your force fighting, but every time they do something significant, they might get hit by enemy fire
• Solo-friendly
• Emphasis on units over individuals—players focus on the placement of squads, tanks, and heavy weapons, not individual riflemen
• Can be played with any scale of miniatures and any type of basing
