Snarling Badger Studios: New Majestic 13 - Alien Hunting Tabletop Skirmish Game!
Snarling Badger Studios: New Majestic 13 - Alien Hunting Tabletop Skirmish Game! MAJESTIC 13 is miniatures-agnostic tabletop wargame where you command an elite team of alien hunters in a secret war to protect the Earth. Designed to play solo, co-op, or as an adversarial skirmish game, MAJESTIC 13 is created by Adam Loper and Vincent Venturella for 1-2 players.
From the book: "To the public, the modern era of alien encounters started in Roswell, New Mexico, on July 8th, 1947, with reports of a downed alien craft, which were quickly retracted and replaced by the story of a weather balloon. The public remains suspicious but accepts the story and moves on. Conspiracy theorists claim the government absconded with alien bodies and technology and hid everything from the people. Both stories are, of course, wrong." Use any modern soldier miniatures you'd like for your team, and any kinds of weird creature models for the alien monsters you'll fight. Enjoy a deep campaign system with random mission generation and planned special missions, too. Keep upgrading your team members that survive each mission, and bring out new clones for the ones that don't. Check these brand new rules now here

Henry Hyde Limited: Tabletop Battle Tactics Deluxe Full Colour Combined Edition
Henry Hyde Limited: This deluxe full colour edition of Tabletop Battle Tactics brings together the content of books 1 and 2 in the series, but renders the stunning photographs, maps and diagrams in full colour. Moreover, there is now additional content, with a gallery of inspiring games and an additional scenario featuring pirates and Royal Marines on a tropical island! Check this new book now here
Based on a series of articles written by the author for Wargames, Soldiers & Strategy magazine, this volume pulls together all that tabletop tactical advice under a single cover for easy reference. Wargamers interested in any period from ancients to WWII will benefit from the oversight and advice contained in these pages, outlining how each troop type evolved its own tactics to counter its enemies and make best use of new technologies as they arose.
The advice contained here will help you make the best of your infantry, cavalry, artillery, chariots and elephants, through to the radical changes brought about in, for example, artillery from the late 19th century onwards. Most of the information is completely generic, with a few examples to help you understand how different arms and tactics are represented in popular rulesets like Black Powder, Hail Caesar, Chain of Command, Warhammer Ancient Battles and others.
You also get to put into practice all the theory learned in the first part of the book, pitting yourself against a determined enemy in challenging circumstances! With beautifully rendered maps that wargamers will instantly recognise represent easily-available gaming terrain, veteran wargamer Henry Hyde presents no less than seventeen scenarios in this edition, each of which can be adapted and staged using your favourite armies, whether then be Ancient Greeks or modern special forces, Wellington's redcoats taking on Napoleon's finest, or Union versus Confederate or, indeed, pirates clashing with naval landing parties!
All the scenarios are infinitely replayable, enabling them to be used just for an evening's gaming fun or as exercises for the more seriously-minded student of tactics. They can be used with whatever rules you prefer, and the author considers the different approaches that might be needed when using a selection of popular rulesets. Any of these scenarios will also provide hours of gaming pleasure for the solo gamer, as well as for players with live opponents.
And you don't have to be a historical wargamer to benefit from these tactical lessons: mass battle fantasy players will find useful information here too, realising that a regiment of dwarves armed with spears really isn't that different from a regiment of ancient Romans! The content spans the globe, launching you from ancient Greece, Rome and Byzantium, soaring across medieval and renaissance Europe, and taking in the conflicts of more recent times that might be in Russia, the Western Desert, Iraq or Afghanistan. Or why not transpose these scenarios to Middle Earth or Westeros?
Informed by Henry's more than five decades of experience in the hobby, in which he has suffered both victories and defeats, this book effectively summarises that vast experience and condenses it into a series of lessons that you will find informative, entertaining and, most importantly, extremely useful when planning your next battle!
