I decided to make my own rules, mainly because I'm tired of painting sooo many models (I play orks), and I wanted to have some dead 'ard 'umies to play with. They're similar to Movie Marines, but without all the "movie" crap. I'm trying to make them balanced, and after a test game (where I owned a Nidzilla army O.o) I toned them down a bit. Let me know what you think.
