This is an idea that came to me for players with world war 2 collections and who are interested in kings of war (maybe even scaled up Panzerfaust). Think of it as an alternative way to take on the rules presented in the kings of war rule book. Yes I know warpath may be able to cover it later on but for now lets use try this. These rules will allow players to fight their WW2 armies on the battle field of kings of war. Remember the unit foot print is still important and enforced.
