It throws up questions like 'what factions would you have?' I'm thinking along the lines of: USA, Britain, China, Russia, generic Terrorists/Narco Terrorists - any others?

Also would there be problems with political correctness? I have a feeling that most parents wouldn't be too pleased about their kids collecting a 'Terrorist Army'...


Just throwing it out there - would it be a good idea?, would you play it ?

What, you mean Like this?-

Oh, and for the record-

Modern combat is much much worse then the 40K armies could ever hypotheticly be.

We got in a couple of situations like city fight that would make you crap yourself for me even telling you about half of the things that you go through, nevermind what you actually see.

Our weapons are much more ...

Effective, and the damage done is much more destructive. Not to mention we don't have rules out there for set ambushes, IED's or VIED's. Other examples include tactical resupply and service issues, vehicle recovery, close air support, or we don't have a rule for dealing with a hot LZ and getting casualties out of the area. there are a heck of a bunch of other things,,, bobby trapped bodies, bridges and civilian infastructure assets, maybe some issues of working with allies, different armies, and natives, etc.etc, etc.

Just a taste, but you get the idea....
