Green Dragon Hobbies, wargames rules publisher some of our titles Beneath a Moonlit Sky, Fire & Maneuver, Into the Abyss, Mano-a-Mano and Tachikaze.
Beneath a Moonlit Sky, A supplemental set of Night Fighter rules for WW2 air combat. This system should be compatible with just about any table top rules system using hexes for movement. With just enough uncertainty added to give the feel of fighting in the dark, hunters and intruders make their way through the night sky, tracking incoming bombers intent on hitting their targets
Fire & Maneuver v4.1, The Second World War saw many new innovations to combat: new weapons from jets to atomic bombs, new tactics and doctrine, and innovations which replaced many old traditions. But through it all, the infantryman remained the one indispensable item on the battlefield.
Into the Abyss, Into the Abyss is the first supplement to the Fire and Maneuver skirmish rule system. Covering the 1939 invasion of Poland, it brings in new squads, weapons, and vehicles from the early days of World War 2. This is not a stand alone, and a copy of Fire and Maneuver is needed.
Mano-a-Mano, Mano-a-Mano is a fast, universal game system that can be used for skirmish or role playing games. It is mainly concerned with movement, combat, morale, and other connected actions, with lots of detail on gambling, travelling, swag...it's all there. The rest is left to your imagination. So, you can rob the town bank, chase banditos as part of a posse, or fight off an Apache war party.
Tachikaze, A Rowdy Time in the Far East. Tachikaze is a role playing adventure game set in old Japan during the Tokugawa shogunate, from 1600 to 1850. Embracing the flavor of your favorite Samurai movies, Tachikaze contains a detailed combat system that, like it's cousin Mano-a-Mano, can lead to quick death for a character who is not prepared.

GT Publishing - Rules for Gamers, not Lawyers, Our rules are intended to encourage enjoyment of the game. The OBJECT of the game may be to win by achieving a certain objective, but the PURPOSE of every game is to have fun!
Above the Clouds!
Above the Clouds! is a set of air-combat miniature wargame rules for fighting large air battles from the late 1930s through the 1950s.
The rules are intended to produce a free-flowing and fast game to represent air combat. Although air warfare is a very technical form of combat, rules which focus too much on the technical details quickly lose the "feel" of air combat by turning the game into a slow, plodding simulation where seconds of combat time require hours of game time to resolve.
Commit the Garde! is intended to simulate battles of the Napoleonic wars on the grandest of scales.
Entire epic battles are represented; no longer must the players extrapolate the results of the entire battle of Waterloo based upon their game's recreation of the fight for the garden gate at Hougoumont.
Players represent the highest level leaders in any given battle, and as such make the decisions that will shape the entire battle.
Gone are the minutiae which their historical counterparts left to their subordinates, your focus is on your army's brigades, not on the battalions and squadrons.
Damn the Torpedoes, is a fast-moving intuitive game of naval combat during the American Civil War.
Players do not need to have a nautical background to maneuver their ships, and the do not need to have degree in algebra to fire their cannons—all they need are a few miniatures (or carboard counters) a few dice (D6 through D20), a tape measure, and a horizontal surface (4’4’ is plenty).
The rules are intended to allow friends sit down and play a fun, fast game with feel for the period, to make tactical decisions about employing their ships and reacting to the enemy’s similar decisions, while providing a satisfactory gaming experience.
Flank the Tiger, Frustrated in my efforts to write the “perfect” set of World War II rules I decided what most people want from a World War II game is Tanks, lots of TANKS.
Therefore, I embarked on this project and it has been a lot of fun. To be fair, there are a lot of rule sets which more accurately capture the combined arms nature of World War II combat, but these rules do not pretend to be one of them.
