Hail Of Fire Rules

“Hail Of Fire Rules” is a company-level, WWII miniatures war game designed specifically to be simple and fast-playing, while also forcing players to navigate the “fog of war”. Features include secret action points, hidden deployments, and a delayed combat resolution system, all of which are easy to execute and track using a few dice and tokens rather than maps or other bookiing.

Best of all, the rules provide this in only a few pages of simple and to-the-point intruction! So if you’re looking for a deep, unique tactical experience and are more interested in playing rather than reading long rulebooks, print out the PDF, grab some models, and jump right in!

•••••

• Intended for 15mm miniatures or smaller. Infantry based in teams, vehicles based individually, and units of models being platoons.

• Dice needed are D6s and a single D10. Measurements are in inches. Tokens are needed to mark “suppressed” teams and “received fire points”. I use small 8mm dice for the latter, 100 of which can be purchased online for only a few dollars.

• Written for 1 vs 1 games, with team-play and solo-play easily accomplished.
