I recently found so cool looking Us infantry from http://www.empressminiatures.com/page7.htm
I was wondering is there were a game where you use around 10 to 20 models and possibly vehicles.

Empress have some rules on their site
but not sure if they fit the skirmish scale criteria

Ganesha Games's Flying Lead is the right sort of scale but not sure if it has vehicle rules.

Force-on-Force

I second Force on Force. Quick and dirty modern skirmish. Vehicles are a seemless addition not an after thought tacked on to keep the treadheads happy.

They are indeed... I developed the current vehicle rules!

force on force looks pretty sweet thanks for telling me about it.

I did not know that. Bravo on a job well done

I do like Force on Force (and I wrote the tactics section in it). You can try the quick start rules here: http://ambushalleygames.com/images/pdfs/fof_qs_rules.pdf Some folks don't like the mechanisms, some love them... I love them. They have other stuff you can download here: http://ambushalleygames.com/resources/downloads/30-playing-aids

One thing to note though, FoF is not really a skirmish game. Figures move and fire as a unit (usually a 4 member fire team) vice as individuals.

Also worth trying are Two Hour wargames free set, Chain Reaction: http://www.twohourwargames.com/free.html Vehicle rules are a little light, but for infantry skirmish it is pretty fun.

Both companies are fantastic in the customer support area, with either Yahoo groups or an active forum that will get you answers to any questions you have.

Ganesh Games "Flying Lead" mentioned above is also a good game.

Check out the AAg website www.ambushalleygames.com

The Fourms there are also a great place. Just watch out for the Michaels....>.> <.<


Picking up the FoF book was one of the best gaming decisions I have ever made. I sold all my Gw crap in one go and haven't looked back. Now I just roam different fourms telling people about the promised land that is AAG.
