Men of War Solitaire Tactical Book Wargames OMNIBUS: Volume 1 Modules 1,2 & 3 Paperback – January 17, 2024

The Men of War - Solitaire Tactical Book Wargame System is an old-school hex and counter tactical wargaming system for the Men of War game modules focusing on modern low-intensity conflicts. Men of War is an infantry-centric game that aims to mimic the nuances of modern small units, leadership, fire, and maneuver, primarily team and squad-based formations with emphasis on the “Shoot-Move-Communicate” doctrine of infantry training and combat. The scale is at the tactical level; each hex grid represents a few meters and turns represent approximately five minutes. Each counter is an infantry unit identified as a Fireteam, individual leaders, and squad weapons. Gameplay occurs in hexagonal maps with varied terrain where the player maneuvers units. Everything needed to play all three games is included in this book minus the dice and a marker. Players will need at least one D10 and one D6 dice. A total of 34 missions/scenarios including 4 Bonus Missions, 12 hex-maps (x4 Each Module with extras), all unit counters, markers, mission sheets, charts, and player aids are included. Players mark units represented by letters and numbers from a Mission Sheet directly onto the map, and track movement using symbolic marks. Preferably, the player may use the included counter sheet which can be cut and mounted and used as traditional wargame counters.OMNIBUS Volume I, includes the first three games in the Men of War series:Men of War Solitaire Tactical Wargame System Module 1:Rhodesian Bush War-Forward TogetherPlayers control Rhodesian security forces attempting to eradicate an ever-threatening insurgency backed by communist superpowers.
