Incoming! Operational Level Rules For Modern Combat
Moderns
Incoming! is a set one-page, fast-play rules for operational-level WWII, post-war and modern combat, reminiscent in effect (although not in mechanics) of DBA. From the rules:
Incoming! provides fast-play, simple rules for modern combat, from WWII through the current day. It represents forces at the brigade and division level, with battalions as the maneuver elements. Figures may be anything from 6mm to 25mm scale. All dice are ordinary six-sided dice, and all measurements are in inches. With larger-scale miniatures (15mm – 25mm) players may choose to double all base sizes, ranges, and distances.

Wargames Set In Lebanon
Moderns, Painting, Rules Modern
Given the recent unpleasantness in the Levant, it might be interesting to game a battle between the IDF and Hezbo terrorists—err, militia. Andrew Thompson has a page on gaming battles in Lebanon, including a painting guide, some VERY nice photos and a simple set of rules for playing the conflict.
It would be interesting to know readers’ reaction to this page. While wargamers have no compunction about gaming wars, a good many seem to draw the line at the more modern stuff ... too close to home ... too recent. Others, however, think that this is the most interesting thing to do, precisely because it is so immediate.

New MBT Maps and Scenarios
Moderns
I played a lot of Avalon Hill’s MBT game when it first came out. Now you can get new maps and scenarios depicting terrain/actions found in the fictional WW3 novel “First Clash” by Kenneth Macksey.The premise of the book revolved around the Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group defending its sector in West Germany in the opening days of WW3 against attacking Soviet tank/motor rifle regiments.

Arofan Gregory has a nice list of sources of 25mm 28mm modern wargames figures and vehicles. The vehicles list is, I think, particularly useful.
