View Stargrunt II

by Jon Tuffley, published by Ground Zero Games

Stargrunt II is a low level SF game that focuses on the infantry combat. Action is centred around the sqaud as the basic fighting unit, but unusually, combat is not resolved for each individual figure but rather for the squad as a whole. Thus this game is not a skirmish game, but a platoon / short company level game.

The combat system uses the FMA System of opposed polyhedral die rolls. Fast, simple and very effective.

The rules (like all GZG products) are generic that is not tied to any specific figure range.

Stargrunt II has been successfully used for modern combat (e.g. Vietnam) as well as SF and has spawned some variants in other periods.
