Wargaming

Wargaming

The games covered here are small in number but wide in range. The ones played the most are those from Ground Zero Games, including Full Thrust, Dirtside and Stargrunt. Also covered are various versions of Warhammer, both fantasy (a little) and Ancients (a bit more). Add to that a light sprinkling of World War II, and that about covers it.

Where possible, photos of models have been provided.

Game Systems

Full Thrust

A game of capital ship space combat, generic enough to be applied to a number of different settings. It is a fast and simple game, but comes with a complete ship design system which is relatively extensive and flexible. Large battles can be played relatively quickly.

Dirtside

SF ground combat for companies and battalions, normally using 6mm scale figures. Set in the same universe as Full Thrust, it complements that system nicely. Again, it is a fast and simple system which covers a lot of areas of combat.

Stargrunt

SF ground combat for squads and platoons, normally using 25mm scale figures. Again the same universe as Full Thrust and Dirtside, it concentrates on the smaller battles. The weapons and vehicles are very similar to Dirtside, though there are a few differences which makes the two systems not entirely compatible.
