BeamStrike 15mm Science Fiction Rules
Rules Sci Fi
BeamStrike is a set of free wargames rules for 15mm science fiction games. From the introduction:
Beamstrike - The miniature game- is a set of fast paced, simple, science fiction war-game rules for tabletop battles using 15mm model miniature figures. A wide range of armoured vehicles can be fielded, from Tanks, to Walkers and Mecha. Rules for alien races, including generic ‘bugs’ and ‘greys’, add interest, and full rules allowing robots and androids complete the sci-fi repertoire.
Beamstrike is not a strict war game as weapon ranges are compressed heavily to accommodate your army on a table of manageable size, comprehensive rules regarding chain of command and communications between various levels of command are largely ignored, and force organization and structure are fairly flexible. Beamstrike is best described as a fun, fast paced, science fiction ‘spaghetti western’ of a system, which will not take you 3 months
to read and learn, and will not lead to bankruptcy by forcing you to purchase expensive miniatures which must be used in order to
play the game according to the rules.
