BOLT ACTION
MODERN
WARS
(V2.2_03/07/18)
Notes from creator
Note that you will need Warlord Games’ Bolt Actiontm books (Core
Rulebook and expansions) to use this rule set.
This ruleset is created with idea of giving the players a proper tool to create any modern
(1980s and later) games, emphasizing on direct combats rather than counterinsurgency
ops using the simple and effective Bolt Action mechanic basis.
As a closing phrase, I can only say that i hope you will find these rules interesting
and more or less fair regardless of the nation you prefer. Have a nice game!
If you see anything that seems wrong and want to explain your thought, or just want to share
your ideas, please don’t hesitate to contact me via my blog

Hall of fame
What started as solo work in the middle of 2015, now became truly international project,
involving people from several countries. It now includes 12 major armylists, covering
armies and armed groups from all around the world and keeps expanding thanks to the
contribution of people.
That is why I feel need to make sure the fame will find its heroes.
There is the short list of people with their nicknames on Warlord Forums and countries
they are from, who helped me most with this project at this point, giving me new ideas,
sharing information and motivating me to keep working:
1) Pablo “Pablerasmortal” (Spain) – My current actual co-writer, who translated the

rules to Spanish language and helps me to stay in touch with community.
2) Christopher “Commissarmoody” (United States) – The man who helped me in
making US part of the book way more fair and interesting.
3) Jan “Norglet” (Germany) – Who almost rewritten whole German part to the
completely new level (current German list is mostly his work)
4) Jerome (France) – One who gave me really good ideas about overall French army
organization and special rules.
5) Jonathan (France) - Who gave me good consulting regarding French equipment.
6) Sebastien (France) – Who gave me good consulting regarding chain of command in
French army.
7) Theo Roberts (United Kingdom) – Who proposed many changes in British part of
the rules.
8) Vladislav Chvojka (Czech republic) – Who solely created Czech army list
And, of course, all the people who commented the subject and forced me to think
about some points of the rules.

GENERAL CHANGES
1. Important note on “May take X weapon” term

When referring to “May take some weapon” I do not mean “replace primary weapon with”
but to “take in addition”. Why? Because lots (if not all) AT weapon operators, marksmen etc.
carry ARs or SMGs for self-protection or higher tactical versatility.
The best way is to refer to common sense (i.e. marksman with AR is perfectly OK, but ordinary
machine gunner with AR, pistol and, say, AT4 is a little too much) and WYSIWYG of models you
have.
2. Weapon ranges.
Any weapons can be fired twice their normal range with additional -1 to hit and penetration
penalty (effectively increasing it to -2 in total) during execution of “Fire” order.
This rule DO NOT affects ATGMs and indirect fire.
3. Scared!
If any infantry unit fails the order test by 5 or more, it immediately retreats to the friendly
table edge with full Run move. It may even flee from the table if range is allowing it!
If scenario does not specify any table edge as friendly (for example in encirclement-style
scenarios), then scared unit will move to the nearest cover (if not near/in cover already) up to
6” away and go “Down”.
If unit ends its move with no enemies in LOS and/or within 24”, it immediately removes D6 pin
markers.
Note: For example, if unit with 6 morale rolls 11 as order test, they are scared. FUBAR always
overrides Scared rule.
4. High Explosive (HE) weapons
“Thanks” to Warlord Games changing HE mechanic in BA to the one I cannot agree with, I
was forced to partially write-in the rules from 1st edition just to keep things more or less
balanced.
If a hit is scored on the target, that hit is multiplied into a number of hits equal to a die or die
roll as shown in a brackets on the weapons chart. For example, HE D6 will result in from 1 to 6
hits, HE 2D6 gives 2-12 hits and so on.
Hits by weapons with an HE value greater than D3 can result in extra pin markers on the
target. The total number of pin markers is generated randomly by rolling D2, D3 or D6
depending on the HE value of the shooter as shown on the chart below.
HE Pin Pen Additional rules

D2 1 +1
D3 1 +1 Pin D2 if 2 or more hits (before multiplication) scored by one unit
D6 D2 +2 Pin D3 if 2 or more hits (before multiplication) scored by one unit
2D6 D3 +3 Pin D6 if 2 or more hits (before multiplication) scored by one unit
3D6 D6 +4 D2 hits to vehicles instead of one
VEHICLES AND TANKS CHANGES
1. Turret Jamming (vehicle damage).

Please ignore this rule implemented in BA 2nd edition, as these rules was not written to
comply with it, which may result in a much worse playing experience and balance issues.
2. Weapon damaged (vehicle damage).

All vehicles now should have this rule.
If vehicle or tank is hit by one or more HE 3D6 hits originating from single weapon (for
example from bomb or IED), make separate D6 roll, adding number of HE 3D6 hits (before
multiplication mentioned above) received. If the total number is 7 or more, vehicle lost all of
its weapons for the rest of the game.
Example: Tank is targeted by the 6 HE 3D6 super-heavy bomb and receives 4 hits. Roll a die,
adding +4. On a roll of 3 or more the bomb cracked targeting systems and torn any external
weapons by excessive shockwave.
3. Tank armor.
All Main Battle Tanks (MBT) have Side armor 8+ and Rear and Top armor 7+ regardless of
frontal armor. No other modifiers for side/rear/top hits can be applied
Examples:
1. M1A2 Abrams has MBT 13+ unit type, so it has frontal armor of 13 but side and rear armor
as stated above.
4. Lucky hits.
Even if penetration is not enough to actually damage enemy vehicle with Veteran crew, apply
one pin marker if one or more shots with +1 or better penetration rolled 6 and 6 again for
penetration roll.
5. Explosive reactive armor.

If RPG hits facing of vehicle, protected by ERA, its damage roll receives -2 modifier.
In addition, all units within 6” of that facing immediately receive HE D3 shot hitting on 4+ and
counted as originating from vehicle. Cover modifiers applied as normal.
6. Active protection system.

All RPGs and ATGMs without “indirect attack” rule receive additional -1 to hit modifier against
vehicles with APS
7. Coaxial weapons.
Any coaxial MGs can be fired simultaneously with main cannons, but receive additional -1 to
hit modifier.
8. HE rounds.
All AT cannons have HE D6 and Heavy automatic cannons have HE D3 unless stated otherwise.
9. Linked weapons.
If weapon is written as “X-barreled”, simply multiply the usual number of shots by the number
of barrels stated unless written otherwise. All such weapons are counted as one for all
purposes.
10. Targeting equipment.
Iron sights. Have no bonuses.
Simple. Have 6” range increase of weapons, adds +6” to Night fight rolls.
Stabilized. Have 12” range increase of weapons, ignore penalty for movement, adds +12” to
Night fight rolls.
Advanced. Have 18” range increase of weapons, ignore penalty for movement, adds +18” to
Night fight rolls, reduces enemy cover by 1. In addition, it already incorporates Rangefinder
and Target tracker
11. Auxiliary equipment

Automatic fire extinguishers (AFE). Vehicle with this rule completely ignores first “Burning”
damage result. If one unit inflicted multiple “Burning” results during one order, all of them are
ignored.
All Main Battle Tanks always have Automatic Fire Extinguishers.
Rangefinder. Reduces to hit penalty for long range by 1.
Target tracker. Halves the penalty because of pin markers (rounding up) if firing at one target
2nd and subsequent times in a row.
SPECIAL RULES CHANGES

1. Medic.
Saves soldiers by 5+ roll rather than six, but maximum two per turn.
2. Transport vehicles.
Act like any other vehicle – can use its weapon, no longer destroyed if closer to the enemies
etc.
3. ATGM.
Model may only use ATGM while executing “Fire” order and no closer than 6”. ATGM never
gets range penalties to shooting.
Against non-vehicle targets, treat any ATGM as HE D2 weapon.

4. Fire-and-forget.
These advanced weapons don’t need operator to guide them. FaF missiles never receive
accuracy penalties from pin markers and hits on a roll of 3+ regardless of Indirect fire rule.
This weapon cannot be fired at the infantry in cover. When fighting in the hot zones, FoF
weapons suffer -1 accuracy modifier.
5. Marksman rifles.
When marksman rifle scores a hit, make a damage roll separately. If damage roll is successful
roll again and if second roll is successful too, it is exceptional damage.
Marksman rifles do not ignore individual armor or cover unlike sniper weapons, but reduce
cover bonus by 1.
All Marksman rifles already have Optical sights.
6. Suppressing.
Weapon with this rule can perform suppressing fire during “Fire” order. When doing this,
weapon receives -3 to hit modifier but applies 1 pin marker for each natural to hit roll of 6.
Each shot may cause only one pin marker and no pin markers is applied for hitting the target
with any other weapons of the same unit.
7. Underbarrel Grenade Launchers.

Any unit with AR/GL may use AR or Grenade launcher profile each time it fires.
8. Infiltration.
Units with this rule deploy like Observers and Snipers.
9. AA missiles.
Can only be used against aircraft. It always hit on a roll of 3+, regardless of pin/advance
modifiers. AA missiles mounted on vehicles are one-shot weapons.
10. Tactical training.

Any unit with 8 or more models may split into several fireteams at least 4-men strong each.
Refer to fireteam compositions if they are stated, otherwise try to spread special weapons as
even as possible.
Additional fireteams may act as independent units, giving additional Order dice as normal.
All fireteams of same squad have to stay within 6” of each other at the end of the turn or
receive D2 pin markers.
Declare use of this rule during deployment.
11. Thin armor.
All hits from weapons with penetration +1 or more are resolved with additional +2 modifier
regardless of facing. Apply no bonuses for rear or side hits.
12. Special Forces.

Note: I had to specially designate this rule as it incorporates a lot of other ones.
Models with this rule are not slowed by armor, gain additional +1 bonus to shooting and
cover, immune to Scared! rule and have following special rules: “Tactical training”, “Airborne-
qualified”, “Infiltration”, “Fanatics”.
In addition, Special Forces medics may re-roll the die to save wounded model once per game.
HIGH ALTITUDE AIRCRAFT AND ARTILLERY (FIRE SUPPORT).
Any model with “Forward observer” rule may call artillery or airstrike using “Fire” order,
depending on what player bought in “Fire Support” choice.
Different supports may be used together or only one-by-one, one or several times.
Process the fire support request as following:
1st step – choose the target spot anywhere on the table in LOS (for AOE) or any unit in LOS
(for Precise). It may differ from target of the rest models in the unit.
2nd step – roll for effectiveness at the start of next turn (see rulebook – Artillery chart for AOE
and Airstrike chart for Precise).
3rd step – resolve the damage using the profile from strike entry.
Models with both “Special Forces” and “Forward observer” rules count any “1” results on
effectiveness tables as “2-3” result instead.
CLOSE AIR SUPPORT (CAS)

CAS units are always begins game in reserve and have a highest priority when assigning Order
dice.
CAS cannot come at 1st turn, as any reserve (note that prioritizing rule is not applied at 1st
turn).
Fixed wing aircraft may only make Strafing runs, while Helicopters are able to Hover as well.
STRAFING RUN.
If any CAS unit and any model with “Forward observer” rule are bought, player may perform
strafing run as following:
1st step – Call in. Pass an order test for CAS to arrive. It has normal -1 modifier for being in
reserve.
2nd step – Coming. If test is successful, choose a target and place CAS anywhere on the table,
so its nose is within 18” from target. Note that if you are using rocket pods or other attack that
uses “target point”, you have to declare the exact point on the model and mark it with a
10mm die for example.
3rd step – Reaction. Any enemy units which have AA-mounted weapons and/or AA missiles
can attack it as an “out-of-sequence free shooting”, doubling distance as per “Fire” order.
Weapons fired this way cannot be used again this turn.
4th step – Fire mission. If aircraft was not shot down, resolve the attack.
5th step – Disengage. In a following turn CAS unit automatically executes “Run” order and
leaves battlefield, remove all pin markers from it after that.
It may come again next turn, using the same sequence.
Placing aircraft:
We assume, that CAS is performing low-altitude, low-speed attack at close range, so it should
be about 3” to 5” above the board (measuring to the hull, not chassis), as you prefer.
Aircraft shooting:
Due to modern targeting equipment, CAS can precisely target enemy even at high speed.
Aircraft hits at 3+ despite it moves. It can never get pointblank bonus or range penalties.
However, unlike other vehicles, CAS may use only up to three weapons (up to two of which
can be ATGMs) per turn and can attack only one target. The only exclusion is helicopters with
Crew Chiefs (look at actual models for references), who may always use their weapons in
addition to any other.
Vehicles are hit in the top armor and cover bonuses applied as normal.
Aircraft with night vision can be used in Night Fight conditions but receive -2 to hit rolls
(ATGMs are unaffected) and aircraft with thermal sights receive no penalties
Shooting at aircraft and damaging:

Any infantry units with weapons that have range 24” and more can shoot at the aircraft,
counting its nose as target point. They receive -12” penalty to their initial range (remember
that when doubling during “Fire” order) and may only hit aircraft on the roll of 6. Weapons
with AA mounts and AA missiles hit aircraft with -1 to hit penalty instead (but still not worse
than 6).
Aircraft receives one pin marker for each hit and additionally one for each superficial or full
damage. No other damage is dealt. The only exceptions to this are severe damage and
exceptional damage.
Remember, that aircraft with “Armored car” type never gets pin markers from light weapons.
Aircraft has no facings (so heavy weapons receive no penetration bonuses).
Shooting down
If the aircraft receives Severe damage from hit, it is shot down and destroyed.
If any weapon causes damage and rolls 6, roll the die again. If second result is a 6 too, then
aircraft is shot down and destroyed.
If any aircraft receives 8 pin markers before it disengages, it is shot down and destroyed.
Note that one hit may cause several results (for example 1 and 2 simultaneously).
Shot down! (OPTIONAL RULE)
If aircraft is shot down, place it on the table (or just put some marker if it is glued to base) to
display the wreck and do as following:
1st step – roll for ejection seat (if stated in profile). On a roll of 4+, pilot(s) ejected safely and
may be placed within 3” from the wreck. Roll ejection once for whole crew.
2nd step – check for survivors. Each non-ejected member of the crew receives a hit with +3
penetration. Survivors are placed at the top of the wreck. They can’t do anything except
“Down” order and have soft cover.
Note that survivors (including ejected pilots) keep their vehicle’s Order die.
3rd step – survivors may act. Ejected pilots may now move like an ordinary infantry. Crash
survivors may only be extracted by transport. They occupy two places each (count this as
embarking).
4th step – evacuate! Until evacuated, survivors may be captured (if enemies come in close
combat, crew is automatically captured), granting additional victory points. If evacuated
through allied table edge or via helicopter, they grant victory points to the allies. Transport
used for evacuation returns automatically next turn
Aircraft weapons.
All weapons used by aircraft except cannons and MGs (i.e. rockets, missiles, bombs etc.) are
single use only.
Rocket pods.
All of them contain relatively simple unguided rockets with reasonable accuracy. Mostly they
are used to attack area targets. Rocket pods have -1 to hit modifier but hit all units within 3”
from target point.
Bombs.
Old but still effective, bombs are widely used by assault aircraft. Experienced pilot can even
pinpoint bomb strike at very small location, causing terrifying damage to any target. Bombs
can hit only one target and receive no to hit penalties for cover.
Both rocket pods and bombs can be divided into four categories:
1) Light – 6 HE D3 shots.
2) Medium – 3 HE 2D6 shots.
3) Heavy – 2 HE 3D6 shots.
4) Super heavy – 4 HE 3D6 shots.
Notes: Somebody may say that it is too strong or too weak. In fact, I had to use “two weapons
counted as one” principle, because other way A-10 carrying 7 tons of bombs or Ka-52 with 24
ATGMs would be too “no brain” choices, or too expensive ones.
In other way, rulebook states 50kg shell of ISU-152 as HE 3D6 shot, so making 250kg bombs or
650kg missiles used by modern aircraft simple HE 3D6 blast didn’t make any sense. Therefore,
instead of making unreliable 9D6 rolls, I turned to more reliable “several hits – several rolls”.
HELICOPTERS.
Hovering.
Treat hovering helicopters as usual units in terms of giving orders, battlefield behavior etc.
They can begin the game on the board or arrive in the first wave while hovering.
Instead of executing “Run” order and disengaging as per Strafing run, Helicopter may execute
normal “Advance” order, moving up to 24” with maximum of 2 turns (up to 90° each) and
firing at any unit in range and fire zone as normal vehicle.
When hovering, helicopter is much more vulnerable, and all non AA weapons hit them with -1
penalty instead of 6, and AA weapons hit normally.
Transport helicopters.
When Hovering, helicopters may also land to disembark or embark troops or use rope
insertion, using “Down” order. If doing so, helicopter stays in place for the rest of the turn and
performs landing or insertion.
If transport helicopter is shot down and destroyed, its passengers receive N*1.5 (N=number of
models in each unit) hits with +3 penetration. Survivors are placed at the top of the wreck.
They can’t do anything except “Down” order and have soft cover.
The disembarking of troops may be performed in two ways: with landing or using ropes.
Note: it would be good (if not compulsory) idea to have scaled plastic or hard paper silhouette
with access points designations if you are using smaller model
Landing.
Needs circle with radius 6” without any vehicles and pieces of terrain more than 1” high
around the hull of helicopter. Give helicopter Down order. After that, troops can disembark
from helicopter’s access points (see actual models), using “Advance” or “Run” orders as from
any other transport.
Because of clouds of dust raised by rotor blades, the helicopter, its passengers and any unit
trying to shoot at them, receive additional -1 to hit cover modifier this turn.
In addition, any non-Airborne qualified units disembarking from helicopter receive D2 pin
markers at the end of the turn
Rope insertion.
Only Airborne qualified units may perform it, and only from helicopters with according rule.
Needs circle(s) with radius 2” without any interfering models or pieces of terrain like walls or
fences around the access point(s) of helicopter. Give helicopter Down order. Then troops may
disembark from helicopter’s access points (see actual models) using “Run” order with
maximum movement distance decreased by 4.
Note that this disembarking can be performed at the roofs of the buildings.
Troops disembarking this way receive -1 cover penalty until they receive next order. In fact,
they are just too busy, trying to not fall from rope and half-blinded by dust, sand and leaves
raised by their transport.
If any disembarking leads to close combat, reaction fire is resolved as usual and
disembarking infantry fights simultaneously with defender.

Sniper rifles, pistols and heavy weapons cannot be equipped with any upgrades unless stated
otherwise.
Optical and thermal sights equipped on the same weapon can be used only simultaneously.
Only Special Forces and Recon units can use silencers unless opposite is clearly stated.
Body armor.
Any unit with access may take one of the following:
Armor chart
Name Point cost Effect
-1 damage from HE, SMGs, pistols and all
Flak jacket +2
light weapons at long distance
Ballistic vest +3 -1 damage from HE and light weapons
Due to additional weight, models wearing Flak jackets reduce their “Run” movement by 2.
Models wearing Ballistic vests reduce their “Advance” movement by 1 and “Run movement by
3 instead.
Sniper weapons ignore individual armor.
General equipment and tactics.
Battlefield communication system (BCS). BCS can only be used by forces from 2004-later.
Units equipped with BCS may share their coordinates and positions of enemy with friendly
units, as well as ensure constant communication between units.
Units equipped with BCS form a network. All units “connected” to it receive following
bonuses:
• Can use morale of highest connected officer regardless of range.
• Connected units ignored by FUBAR’s “friendly fire” result.
• Can shoot at any target which is seen by connected unit but not shooter (because of Night
fighting for example) but receives -3 to hit and cannot use Suppressing fire rule. ATGMs
cannot use this rule, other weapons still need LOS to shoot.
Any US, UK or EU infantry units can be upgraded to have BCS for +2pt/man
Any Regular armies armored car or light tank with Advanced targeting equipment can be
upgraded to have BCS for +20pts
Any Regular armies Main Battle Tank with Advanced targeting equipment can be upgraded to
have BCS for +35pts
UAV surveillance
Acts as off-map Forward observer, which can be used from 1st turn. UAV ignores Night fight
and has LOS to all battlefield, but all fire support called by it receive -1 efficiency roll. UAV
gives one Order Die as usual unit.
UAV can only be shot down by AA missiles and AA-mounted weapons - declare target as CAS,
UAV is always in long range and has 6+ armor, any damage automatically destroys it.
Up to one UAV per army can be taken for +35pts.
Assault armor
Assault armor is the peak of personal protection available. Heavy ballistic vests, neck, shoulder
and groin protection and sometimes face protection give soldiers additional chance to survive
a close combat.
Assault armor equals the protection of Ballistic vests and can be used in close quarters, but
limit “Run” distance to 6”. Special Forces reduce their “Advance” distance by 1” and “Run”
distance by 3” instead.
All Regular armies infantry units with access to Ballistic vests may equip Assault armor for
same cost or replace existing ones for free.
Russian Federation
Russians faced the ages of war. They had to protect their borders from nomadic tribes,
European knights, Turkish and Polish invaders, and later Napoleon and Hitler armies. Such a
harsh history bred people who know the bitter price of war well, yet will never back down
when forced to fight.
In past two decades, Russia saw two brutal wars against insurgents and terrorists in North
Caucasus region, named Chechen wars, which heavily affected both Armed Forces and society.
Special rules
Nobody is forgotten, nothing is forgotten.
Russian troops take great pride in deeds and traditions of their grandfathers during all wars,
especially Great Patriotic War and will do their best to accomplish the objective no matter the
odds.
If any unit forced to make morale test (because of casualties, flamethrowers or burning
vehicle for example) or be destroyed, they can reroll failed test.
Combat groups.
Unlike Western fireteams, Russian Field manual dictates that infantry squads split into two
specialized groups – Fire group, usually consisting of sergeant and all heavy weapon operators
and Maneuver group consisting of senior rifleman (who acts as group leader) and several
privates.
Any squad consisting of six or more soldiers may split into two teams. Each team should
include at least three soldiers. All MGs and RPGs have to stay in the same group as sergeant.
In addition, as long as Sergeant is alive, full Squad or Fire group may use Split fire special rule
(see Advanced Combat Tactics).
Each team gives Order Die as usual but has to stay within 6” of other at the end of the turn or
receive D3 pin markers.
Declare using of this rule during deployment.

Equipment shortages.
Dissolution of Soviet Union left Russian military in state of disarray, which required years to
end. Because of it, Russian soldiers often lacked the up-to-date equipment often seen in
western countries.
Unless stated otherwise, any Russian infantry unit may take Flak jackets or Ballistic vests at
usual costs.
In addition, unless stated otherwise, all Russian Veteran units have access to Optical sights and
Night vision.
Specific equipment, tactics and fire support.
Guards unit.
The honorable title of Guards, implemented en masse during the Great Patriotic War, was
meant to designate the most unified, courageous and hard-fighting units. Today, soldiers from
Guard units continue the tradition, often fighting against all odds.
Any Russian platoon can be upgraded to Guards. If chosen, all models, both infantry and
vehicle (except models from Air Force and Special Forces entries), from this platoon must be
upgraded.
This upgrade costs +2pt (Infantry), +5 (Soft-skin), +10 (Armored car), +15 (Light tank), +30
(MBT) per model.
Guard units with two or more pin markers can re-roll failed Order tests.
“Ratnik” combat equipment.

Russian-made Future Soldier-type project, it includes all the soldier would need: highest
protection class ballistic vest, multiple types of sights and two innovative features - anti-
fragmentation reinforced uniform and video module for accurate firing out of cover (or from
behind a corner).
It was adopted in 2014 and entered service in 2015 in a large numbers.
“Ratnik” kit incorporates multiple upgrades: Ballistic vest or Assault armor, Battlefield
communication system, Thermal sight, Night vision, Anti-fragmentation uniform and Optical
module.
Russian Regulars and Veterans can equip Ratnik for +10pts (+8 if already wearing any kind of
armor)
Special rules:
Anti-fragmentation uniform. All HE hits decrease their power by one grade (3D6 becomes 2D6,
D2 becomes 1 hit and so on).
Optical module. Unit receives additional -1 cover modifier if “Fire” order received in addition
to actually firing. Unit with this equipment receive -2 modifier to Blind shooting, rather than -4
(see Blood on the streets).
RPG tandem warheads.

Any RPG-L can be upgraded for +10pts.
RPGs with tandem warheads counted as ATGMs for ERA.
Special assault rifle AS “Val”
Special Forces, Snipers and Recon units can replace any AR with AS Val for +3pts each.
May fire one more shot but receive -1 to hit, Silencer upgrade,
AS Val 1 24 n/a
ignores flak jackets at full distance and other ballistic vests at half.
Special sniper rifle VSS “Vintorez”

Special Forces, Snipers and Recon units can replace any MR with VSS Vintorez for +5pts each.
May fire one more shot but receive -1 to hit, Marksman rifle,
VSS
1 24 n/a Silencer upgrade, ignores flak jackets at full distance and other
Vintorez
ballistic vests at half.
Reactive flamethrower RPO-A “Shmel”.

Special Forces, Veteran Contract infantry units and Recon units may take one RPO-A per 4
models for +35pts.
RPO-A “Shmel” 1 24 HE 2D6 Ignores cover and “Down” to-hit penalties
Branches
Ground Forces
The main and largest branch of Armed Forces, Ground Forces are always doing the main job,
be it offence or defense, pursuing the fleeing enemy or trying to hold the line when
overwhelmed.
Heavily motorized.
Russian Ground Force doctrine emphasizes on fire and range superiority, rather than fast movement or heavy
armor. As a result, cannons of Russian AFVs are suited to fire guided missiles and each APC or IFV contains
some extra heavy weapons, just in case.
T-72B, T-80, T-90, T-14 and BMP-3 can use ATGMs as additional firing mode for their main cannons at no cost.
Tanks use H-ATGM, while BMP-3 uses L-ATGM.
VDV (Airborne Troops)

Russian Airborne is the comparatively small yet effective branch of Armed Forces, created
with a task of deploying behind enemy lines. During wars in Afghanistan and Chechnya,
soldiers of VDV often fought as elite infantry at frontlines.

Naval infantry
Russian Naval infantry has a long and glorious history. Since XVII century, they constantly
proved to be elite amongst Russian military, and now stand as highly skilled and motivated

France
Since the last 30 years, French forces were deployed in nearly all the hot spots of the world:
Lebanon, Chad, Iraq, Former Republic of Yugoslavia, Somalia, Rwanda, Afghanistan, Ivory
Coast, Mali and Central Africa… Accustomed to fight in harsh conditions, with little support,
French forces are well experienced and well trained.
In 2016, the French infantry performed some organization changes. It integrated the FELIN, a
brand new Battlefield Communication System, and decided to change some of its arsenal.
In order to represent the specificities of the French infantry, 2 platoon patterns are included in
following list: 1999 year pattern and 2016 year pattern.
Special rules
Forged steel
Every soldier wears ballistic vest (cost is already included in the price of units) and he may take one weapon
upgrade at no cost (has access to night vision, laser designators, optical sights and reflex sights).
In addition, even when they are embedded in a groupe de combat, Sharpshooters can use the sniper special
rule (see rulebook p.70) to pick up another target than the rest of the group.
It can be done when the group shoots using Fire or Ambush order.
Their Marksman rifles are counted as Sniper weapons while using this rule.
Chats maigres.
Any French Veteran unit can reduce the penalty for wearing armor to Special Forces level for +2pts per model.

Czech Republic
After abolition of compulsory military service on 1st January 2005, rather small (Slightly above 25 000 men
strong *January 2018) Army of the Czech Republic depends on all-professional, highly skilled and motivated
troops.
Since 1990, armed forces of Czech Republic participated so far in 30 missions abroad under the UN, EU
and NATO command. Missions such as Desert storm and Enduring freedom in Iraq, peacekeeping missions in
Kosovo, Bosna and Herzegovina, and also ISAF mission in Afghanistan. Many of Czech soldiers are combat
veterans and even though they are few and they sometimes have to use obsolete equipment, they always do
their job honorably and what more - successfully. Czech soldiers are highly valued by all NATO allies.
Armed forces of Czech Republic is something between East and West in terms of organization and
equipment. Czech army uses mixture of Russian, domestic and western vehicles and weapons. Many of ex-
Warsaw pact equipment was modernized by domestic or foreign companies to fit today´s standards, such as MI
- 171Š or T72M4Cz.
Doctrine of Armed forces of Czech Republic count on conducting combat operations with small, versatile,
highly mobile and well armed units of mechanized and motorized infantry.
Special rules
"We were and will be! We endure!" - Based on a motto of Czechoslovak elite borderer regiments during Munich crisis,
1938. This moto reflects motivation and will of soldiers to defend their country against all odds.
If any unit forced to make morale test (because of casualties, flamethrowers or burning vehicle for example) or is
to be destroyed, they can re-roll failed test.
"Modernization" - After rearming to new CZ 805 assault rifle, domestic made Red-dot sights have became standard issue
to every soldier armed with this rifle. All soldiers in combat battalions are also equipped with sidearms and body armor.
All regular or veteran soldiers armed with AR or AR/GL get reflex sights for free. Can downgrade for -2pts per man.
All regular or veteran units have access to night vision, laser designators, optical sights and reflex sights.
All regular or veteran soldiers are equipped with ballistic vests. (Cost is already included, if not said otherwise). Can
downgrade for -3pts to no protection, or -1pt to flak vests per man.
All regular or veteran soldiers can be armed with pistols in addition to their weapon, for +1pt per man.
"Esprit de corps" - Czech army is small, so soldiers from different units get to know each other and develop a special "Esprit
de corps". This is why they don´t want to let their comrades down at any time.
All Czech infantry units may provide covering fire to friendly infantry squads. To do so, declare covering squad
(by giving them “Ambush” order) and covered squad (it may act as normal). Ambushing unit may shoot only on enemy
units firing at covered squad, but covered squad receives +3 to morale for next order and remove 1 additional pin
marker in case of passing the order test.
Branches
4th Rapid Deployment Brigade "Defense of the
nation"
"Where others don't suffice," is a general motto of the 4th Rapid Deployment Brigade of the Czech ground forces.
Brigade was established on 14th January 1994. Currently the brigade is part of the NATO Response Forces (NRF). For
conducting combat operations, the brigade is usually reinforced with other support units, providing artillery support and
tactical combat helicopter support. The brigade has very high level of readiness, training and mobility. Within Army of the
Czech Republic, the brigade is equipped with the newest equipement and vehicles.
The brigade is predestinated to conducting immediate combat and special tasks during military and non-military
threat to the republic as well as its parts could be used to conduct these tasks outside its territory as part of NATO and UN
operations.
4t RDB is currently formed of 41st Mechanized battalion, 42nd Mechanized battalion, 43rd Airborne battalion,
44th Light motorized battalion and 45th Mechanized battalion (Under construction).
Special rules
"1st company" - Each 1st company of each battalion within 4th Rapid Deployment Brigade is capable of airborne
deployment via helicopters.
You can buy "1st company" rule for +20pts. All infantry-based teams (Auxilary units, Infantry units) may use "Helicopter
insertion".
43rd Airborne battalion
Special rules
"Airborne qualified" - 43rd battalion is the only unit within Czech army, which is completely airborne qualified.
All infantry-based teams (Auxilary units, Infantry units) have Airborne-qualified rule.
"Sweat saves blood." - 43rd battalion uses strict selection process for accepting new soldiers from other units. After
passing selection, newcomers have to undergo intense superstructure training. This makes paratroopers from 43rd
battalion elite. This is their motto.
All "AIRBORNE" units are immune to Scared! and Airborne Command squad, Airborne squad and Airborne battalion recon
team are Tough fighters.
7th Mechanized Brigade "Of the Dukla"
71st, 72nd mechanized batt., 73rd tank batt., 74th light mot. batt
The 7th Mechanized Brigade "Dukelská" is a combat unit representing the decisive firing and striking force of the
heavy forces of the Army of the Czech Republic. It is predestined to fulfill the tasks of prevention and response to crisis
situations within the national and allied groupings both in the Czech Republic and abroad. The structure of the brigade
allows for the creation of the necessary task forces to solve tactical tasks and operations, whether as a part or as the main
body of a combat task force.
The Brigade can carry out defensive and offensive combat activities, strengthen the protection of state border,
protect communications, as well as guard important objects and areas outside of direct combat. In accordance with valid
legislation, its members may also be deployed to carry out the tasks of the Police of the Czech Republic. Currently, the
brigade together with its headquarters consists of 71st Mechanized Battalion, 72nd Mechanized Battalion, 73rd Tank
Battalion and 74th Light Motorized Battalion.
Special rules
"Memories of Dukla" - 7th Mechanized Brigade is called "Dukelská", after the famous battle of Czechoslovak armored
brigade from WW2. Men of the 7th Mech. brig. heavily depend on their tanks, and are more skilled in cooperation with
them.
Tanks may ignore friendly Mechanized infantry on their line of fire and all infantry units have +1 morale when within 6”
of allied tank or BVP 2.
Active Reserves
Active reserves of the Army of the Czech Republic is the only exception in all-professional concept. Yet it is still
voluntarily to join the Active reserves. Soldiers in Active reserves serve just a few weeks of the year on regular field trainings.
They are trained in all the basics of military service and also with all small arms which are currently in use of Czech armed
forces. But there are two types of units of Active reserves.
First type are companies by each regional military HQ. They often have older equipment and weaponry than
professional army. Currently they are still armed with 7.62mm SA vz. 58 Assault rifles. And these units are predestinated
to protect and guard important object within their region.
The second type are the units of Active reserves by the professional army units. These are equipped and trained as
closest as possible to the standard of their professional comrades. Yet it is still complicated due to the little time they spend
in the field compared to professionals.
There are approximately 2500 active reservists in the Armed forces of the Czech Republic.
Rules not applied: "We were and will be! We endure!"; "Modernization"

Insurgents
Special rules
Jihad.
Most of modern-time wars are thundering in Muslim countries or regions. As a result, lots of new fighters are
recruited with the idea of “Holy war against infidels” by the people who twist and warp Islam into highly
radical teaching.
In other hand, people who saw NATO or Israeli bombings of Middle East or Africa will fight to avenge deaths of
their relatives or friends, caring not about holiness but about reckoning.
As a result, all Insurgent troops have Fanatics special rule at no cost.
Leader authority.
Personal authority is not an empty word for them. And if the leader falls, unconfident fighters will run.
If non-Veteran unit of Insurgents lose squad leader, they receive additional -1 morale penalty as well as -1
shooting penalty.
One way or another – only one of following rules may be chosen for all army:
Drugs.
Various drugs are widespread in the Africa and Middle East and sometimes used by fighters. They have two
basic grades: Light and Heavy.
Light drugs (like khat) have some stimulation effect, but it quickly fades.
Unit who took this drugs gains +1 morale to maximum of 10, receive -1 penalty to shooting and can ignore
wounds inflicted by light weapons and HE D2/D3 at the die roll of 6 (basically it suppresses pain from any
glancing wounds).
Heavy drugs (or any strong stimulants) have more radical effects which last much longer.
Unit who took heavy drugs cannot gain any cover bonuses at all and receive penalty -2 to any shooting. In
addition, they cannot be pinned by any means, can ignore wounds inflicted by light weapons, close combat
and HE D2/D3 at the die roll of 6 and add 1 to their damage value (making inexperienced 4+, regulars 5+ and
veterans 6+ to kill).
Any unit of insurgents may use light drugs for +1pts per model or heavy drugs for +2pts per model if not said
otherwise.
Locals.
Knowledge of local landscape and hidden ways in the city or mountains determines victory or defeat. Even best
troops, trapped within city blocks or in ravines, can be destroyed easily.
All Insurgent models except Foreign mercenaries can be Locals for +1pt per model. At the start of the game,
roll D6 for each unit of locals. On a roll of 5+, this unit becomes one grade better.
Note: Local mobs may increase their grade two times due to Green rule, accidentally becoming Veterans.
IEDs
Heavy use of IEDs became the cause of many casualties during modern conflicts. It is hard to fight, when you
are afraid that every step may become your last.
Up to 1 IED per 250pts of roster size can be bought for +30pts each. They have two ways of use. Note that you
can mix them (for example making one ambush and three traps)
1st way – Traps. Secretly note one piece of terrain (with folded pieces of paper with notes such as “Clear” and
“IED” in each terrain, for example) for each IED you have. When enemy unit enters this terrain, IED explodes
as HE D6 automatically hitting attack.
2nd way - Convoy ambush. Before the first turn, choose a random vehicle on table for each IED. Soft-skins are
destroyed immediately and their passengers suffer from transport destruction effects. Armored vehicles
receive automatic Immobilized result instead, along with D3 hits with no penetration to passengers.

Foreign mercenaries

the world in almost all major conflicts of the past 30

Scenarios.
Accidental clash.
During the assault on strategic positions somewhere in the world, two nations’ black-ops accidentally clash
with each other. If the enemy will report this, it will be a disaster. Fortunately, the only long-range transmitters
nearby is in those positions.
Battlefield: any, with 3 hard cover strongpoints (each 4x4” approximately, at the middle line of the table with
equal intervals).
Set-up: Make a roll-off. Winner chooses “his” long edge of the table. Both sides must assign up to all of their
units to be sent in the first wave. All remaining units are held in reserve.
Victory conditions: Place radio operator in one of strongpoints and keep him there with “Down” order for 2
turns. Do not let the enemy do the same. If no transmissions are made, it is draw.
Special rules:
Link to HQ – each player gets 2 free radio operators (Regular, AR, Ballistic vests). Only these operators can use
strongpoints.
Undercover – no tanks, helicopter insertions, infiltrations or CAS is available.

World / End.
As a result of terrible accident or some malicious will, nuclear missiles went flying. As first news came, all
military forces of all nations around the world started moving, executing the last orders.
Battlefield: Any.
Set-up: Defender deploys all units within 24” of one of the long table edges. Attacker comes as a first wave
from opposite edge.
Victory conditions:
Attacker: Save as many personnel as you can and continue to move on! Attacker receives 4 VP for each non-
destroyed allied armored vehicle (APCs, IFVs and so on) with infantry embarked, which exits the battlefield
using defender’s edge. Tanks give 2 VP instead.
Defender: Aggressor will not leave the place alive. Defender receives 1 VP for each enemy unit destroyed.
Special Forces and tanks give 3 VP instead.
Special rules:
Lost hope – each not-armored-vehicle unit in the open (i.e. not embarked in the armored vehicle) receives D3
pin markers at the start of each turn.
Second sun – No thermal or reflex sights, night vision, helicopter insertions, CAS or fire support is available.
Infantry cannot move more than 6” per order (even when running) due to NBCD suits.
Ambush.
Mountain regions of Afghanistan, streets of Iraqi cities and villages in Chechnya became ill-famed for
ambushes, which caused heavy casualties to troops.
Battlefield: Urban or mountain, with road from one corner to the opposite.
Set-up: Defender deploys all units at the road as column. Attacker deploys up to half units anywhere, but no
closer than 6” to the road. All other can be sent in the first wave or left in reserve.
Victory conditions:
Defender: Defender receives 1 VP for each enemy unit destroyed and 2 VP for each friendly unit alive at the
end of game.
Attacker: Defender receives 2 VP for each enemy unit destroyed.
Special rules:
Ambushed – first and last units in the column are automatically immobilized and take 2 hits with penetration
of +6 (RPG) in a side armor. Infantry takes HE 3D6 automatical hit instead. Defender cannot use Infiltration or
Rangers lead the way rules.
CCP protection.
As operation goes terribly wrong, the task force establishes Casualty Collection Point, to better protect and
take care of the wounded. Knowing that, enemy launches attack after attack, trying to overwhelm defenders.
Battlefield: Urban or mountain, with building (4x4”) in the center.
Set-up: Defender deploys all units within 9” from the center. Attacker deploys up to half units anywhere, but
no closer than 24” to the center. All other can be sent in the first wave or left in reserve.
Victory conditions:
Defender: Hold building until the end of the game.
Attacker: Assault building and capture it.

total cost.
The dusk approaches - From the turn 4 and on, Night Fight rule is in effect.
Emergency exfiltration.
Not all hostage rescues goes well. After infiltrating the enemy camp and saving several soldiers and officers,
Special Forces team finds themselves surrounded by enemies. The situation is worsened by approaching allied
airstrike.
Battlefield: mountain village, with zindan/pit (2x2”) in the corner and exfiltration point at the middle of
opposite short edge.
Set-up: Defender deploys all units within 4” from zindan. Attacker sends up to half of his units in the first
wave, coming from random edge. All other placed in reserve and come from random edge.

Expanded rules for different landscape.
General rules. This type of rules is in use always, regardless of battlefield changes. They depict the common
distinctive features of some environment.
Changing rules. They are created to show the unstable nature of battlefield itself, be it tricky weather,
confusion of urban warfare etc.
At the beginning of every turn, both players roll a D6. Sum of this dice display changes, according to the
respective charts. Note that natural roll of 1-1 is always a Miracle, regardless of any other modifiers.
Hot zones (deserts/wastes).

General special rules:
Extreme heat: All Infantry units without Survival training have their movement reduced by 1 during the
daytime.
Jamming weapons: Every time any unit fires, roll a D6 for every weapon fired. On a roll of 1, weapon is
jammed and cannot be fired this turn. This rule affects only light weapons.

reduced by half. All ranged weapons receive -2 to hit. Thermal sights and Advanced targeting equipment
ignore vision reduction.

instantly immobilized as its engine was clogged with dust.
If Blinding sands or Dust storm are in effect, no Fire support or CAS are available. CAS which is still on board
must disengage and leave battlefield.
Urban warfare.
Confusion. All units must take order tests even if has no pin markers when outside of officer’s command
radius and all fails by 4 and more counted as FUBAR.
Atrocities of war. When fighting against Insurgents, all Regular non-Inexperienced forces become Fanatics.
Death in every shadow. All sniper weapons apply D3 pin markers to the units hit, rather than 1.
Changing conditions:
Miracle: Moment of silence. All units with no enemies within 6” remove all pin markers.
Up to 5. No effects. Bloodshed continues without surprises.
6-7. Civilians emerging. Group of 4 civilians emerges from one of the buildings and moves to the one of table
edges. They cannot be shot through by any Regular units, but can be by Insurgents. They are controlled
(including spawn and exit points designation) by Insurgents or (if two Regulars or Insurgents are fighting) by
the player who win additional roll-off. They do not give any order dice and always move at the start of the
turn like with “Advance” order.
8-9. Inaccurate shelling. Immediately perform “Preparatory bombardment” roll for each unit. Units with
Survival training receive -1 modifier.
10-11. Unexpected aid. Each side receives reinforcements up to 15% of initial roster size. They enter
battlefield like any reserve.
12. Smoke and flame. Randomly choose half of terrain and buildings. They are instantly set on fire, becoming
impassable. All units leave it immediately (like from destroyed transport) and go “Down” regardless of order
received earlier, receiving D3 hits with +1 penetration.
From this point, all vision is reduced to 18” and all ranged weapons receive -1 to hit modifier as thick smoke
covers the battlefield. Thermal sights and Advanced targeting equipment ignore this rule.
Harsh winter / arctic conditions.
Deadly frost. Any infantry unit, who is not moving (as a result of Advance or Run order) and not embarked in
vehicle or building, receive 1 pin marker each turn. During the night, they receive D3 pin markers instead.

Deep snow. All terrain without a roof and open ground are counted as Rough.
Fields of white. Infantry units executing “Ambush” or “Down” orders receive soft cover bonus if doing so at
the open ground (as they are blending with the snow). Thermal sights and Advanced targeting equipment
ignore this rule.
Changing weather:
Miracle: Unexpected warming. Deadly frost is ignored for 2 turns.
Up to 5. Blinding reflections. Next roll receives -1 modifier. All ranged attacks without using optical/thermal
sights receive -1 to hit.
6-8. Gathering clouds. Next roll receives +2 modifier. Conditions are normal.

disengage and leave battlefield.
Thick forest / jungles.
Hard to move. All ground except clearings and roads (must be marked) counted as Rough.
Thick vegetation. Pointblank bonus is ignored. All vision is limited to 24”. Extremely thick forest (must be
marked) is impassable for vehicles and limits vision to 6”.
Spooky. All infantry units receive -1 to morale. All Scared results counted as FUBAR instead. At night, penalty
is increased to -3.
Miracle. Both forces can clearly identify friendlies. Spooky rule is ignored for 2 turns.
Up to 5. Calm forest. Conditions are normal.
6-8. Clouds of insects/night birds. All infantry units without Survival training receive additional -2 to morale
and -1 to hit penalty.
9-10. Unnatural silence. Next roll receives +2 modifier. Moving vehicles can be seen (heard?) at any distance
and infantry receives -2 to move penalty.
11-12. Heavy rain. Next roll receives +5 modifier. All infantry units receive -1 to hit, -1 to morale and -6” to
vision penalties.
High mountains.
Hard to breathe. All infantry units without Survival training receive -1/-2 move penalty to Advance/Run orders
respectively.
Rocky ground. All natural soft cover counted as heavy.
Landslide danger. After each HE D6 and more shot misses, roll a D6. On a roll of 6, target unit is hit by falling
rocks. Infantry receives D6 hits with +1 penetration. Vehicles are automatically stunned.
Miracle.
Up to 6. Clear weather. Conditions are normal.
7-9. Low clouds. Visibility is limited to 18”. Stays in effect until Clear weather is rolled. Thermal sights and
Advanced targeting equipment ignore this rule.
10-11. Roaring echo. Next roll receives +4 modifier or +1 if Low clouds are in effect.
12. Avalanche. Randomly select table side. In the beginning of the next turn, avalanche goes directly from this
side to opposite, hitting all units on its way. Vehicles are stunned and receive hit with penetration +3 to
respective facing. Infantry receives 2D6 hits. Then all units hit automatically go “Down” as they try to dig
themselves out.
Units placed within 3” behind solid obstacles (such as tanks or buildings) still go down but receive no damage.
Note that all avalanches will always go identical way. In other way, you may decide how slope is directed
before game, in this case there is no need of rolling for table sides.
Expansion 1. Advanced Combat Tactics
General rules.
Number of tactics and upgrades
Any Inexperienced unit may take two tactics or upgrades, Regulars may take three, Veterans may take four
and Special Forces may have any number.
Insurgents and Shirkers may take only one tactic or upgrade regardless of skill.
Inexperienced commanders may take one Command tactic, Regulars may take two and Veterans may take
three. It applies to both regular armies and insurgents.
Using tactics
All upgrades and tactics can be used any number of times if not said otherwise.
Command tactics
Second in command.
Any Platoon sergeant can be upgraded with this tactic for +15pts.
Platoon sergeant from Command squad with this upgrade adds +3” to Command radius of officer and may act
as squad leader if officer dies, preventing morale penalty.
Surprise Deployment. Airborne and Special Forces selectors only.

Commander may take this tactic for +30pts.
During 1st turn, all infantry units cannot trigger enemy Ambush.
Booby traps
Each commander may buy up to 10 booby traps for +2pts each.
Each time any squad moves, roll a D6. On a roll of 6, Booby trap is triggered, dealing D3 hits with penetration
1 and D3 pin markers.
Note that friendly units may trigger “their” booby traps.
Combat cameraman
Each side may take up to two cameramen each, making either any model from Compulsory choices carry a
camera for +10pts (keeping his ability to fight) or adding unarmed cameraman for +25pts .
Regulars: each time cameraman sees Atrocities marker, Regular player gets 1 VP. Each time Regular destroys
enemy unit within LOS of cameraman, place marker in “camera pool”. After the last turn, roll D6 for each of
them and count:
1-2 – Cruel commentaries or behavior turns public opinion against troops. Enemy gains 1 VP.
3-4 – Scene of combat violence was accepted without sensation.
5-6 – Disciplined actions and strict compliance with rules of engagement and/or laws of war attracted public
to your troops. Regular player receives 2VP.
Insurgents: receive 1VP for each Atrocity marker in army (we assume that they were filmed before fight) and
each time Insurgents destroys enemy unit within LOS of cameraman.
If cameraman’s unit is destroyed camera is lost.
Atrocities. Insurgents only
Insurgent player may place up to 4 atrocities markers anywhere on the battlefield for +20pts each.
Alternatively, any of them can be carried by a squad leaders or officers.
When Regular Army squad comes in vision of atrocity marker, roll a D6 and check the results:
1. Regular’s squad became enraged by the terrible fate of their comrades. From now on, this unit
loses half of pin markers at the start of each turn.
2-4. Soldiers managed keep their battle spirit. No effect on this one.
5-6. Soldiers became terrified. Unit receives D3 pin markers. From now on, it cannot remove one pin
marker by any means.
Inexperienced troops receive +1 modifier, while Veterans receive -1.
Vehicle upgrades.
Anti-RPG countermeasures
Being hit by an RPG is a worst nightmare of any APC inhabitant. Dangerousness of being inside armor during
the fight is perfectly displayed by an unofficial nickname of Russian BMP family – Infantry’s Mass Grave
(Bratskaya Mogila Pehoty). As a result, crews of armored vehicles and repair companies often tried to make
some protection from any scrap available.
In NATO armies this process came another way. Lots of vehicles including M113 and Stryker APCs were
outfitted with factory-made steel meshes.
RPGs receive -1 penetration when attack facing protected by it.
Any vehicle may add countermeasures for +3pts per facing or +10 for all-round. Facings fitted with ERA cannot
be protected this way.
Additional MMG/HMG/AGL
In urban warfare, every shot makes difference. As a result, maintenance and repair companies sometimes weld
additional weapon platforms so crews or accompanying infantry can protect themselves better.
Every vehicle may add one MMG for +15pts or HMG/AGL for +25pts with any type of mount.
Spare ammo
Ammo supply becomes crucial in intense building-to-building city fighting, thus many crews will bring some
additional ammo for their fellow troopers.
Infantry may resupply their *number*-shot weapons while being within 3” of vehicle with this upgrade (they
do it automatically, just declare). Each vehicle may carry 4 shots for such weapons. In addition, all light
weapons fired by units within 3” receive +1 to hit as soldiers do not need to conserve the ammunition.
Any transport vehicle may carry spare ammo for +50pts.
Smoke dischargers.
Vehicle with this upgrade may declare smoke use at any point of the game. At this moment, deploy 6”
diameter smoke or multispectral aerosol (see Fire support section) centered in the middle of that vehicle,
which acts as normal smoke from this moment. Dischargers are one-use.
Any vehicle may add smoke dischargers for +65pts or multispectral screen for +85pts.
Vehicle tactics.
Ace crew
Despite the “Tank ace” term is closely rooted in WW2 terminology, even today some crews shows almost
instinctive understanding of war and achieves efficiency far beyond their comrades’ limits.
Ace crew receives additional +1 to hit modifier and may use defensive maneuver during “Fire” or “Advancing”
orders. To do this, make a morale test with -3 modifier after the shooting. If the test is successful, vehicle can
make 6” move straightly forward or backward.
Any Veteran crew can be upgraded to Aces for +30% of total vehicle cost, including all options taken.
Tracer targeting tactics

If enemy squad was shot at by allied infantry or other vehicle’s MG or automatic cannon during this turn,
vehicle with this rule may pass additional Morale test. If test is successful, this enemy squad receives -1 to
cover bonus when being attacked by this vehicle.
This tactic is not cumulative with “Advanced fire control” or other cover reductions.
Any armored vehicle can take this tactic for +10pts.
Fire wall tactics

During “Fire” order, AFV may pass additional Morale test with -3 modifier. If the test is successful, main
weapon can be fired twice, both shots receiving additional -2 modifier. Does not affects ATGMs.
Any armored vehicle can take this tactic for +25pts.
Infantry tactics and training.

Riding on top of AFVs
While being inside of troop compartment became highly dangerous due to mines and RPGs, troops began to
ride atop of their armor again, becoming vulnerable to small-arms fire but compensating it with faster
reaction on events happening.
Such tactic was used by US troops in Vietnam and Iraq and widely used by Russian troops during wars in
Afghanistan and Chechnya.
Any infantry squad can ride on top of any AFV. Each vehicle can carry only one squad. If vehicle is shot at, roll
a D6 for each hit. On a roll of 1-3 vehicle is hit, on 4+ its riders. All pin markers are applied to both units. HE
rounds hit both vehicle and riders.
Infantry may shoot from unmoving or advancing vehicle, executing “Fire” or “Advance” orders respectively. In
addition, infantry unit which didn’t act this turn, may automatically disembark and go “Down” if vehicle comes
under fire. In this case, all shots hit riders on a roll of 6+, rather than 4+.
Split fire training

Infantry units may split fire to several targets. Units from 4 to 7 may fire at two targets, larger units may fire at
up to four targets.
Any infantry squad with more than 4 members can take this training for +2pts per model.
Expertise covering fire training
Machine gunners can support their unit’s advance in close combat by hail of fire. When declared, enemy’s
infantry reaction fire receives additional -1 to hit modifier, but MG operator cannot attack in close combat this
turn (model is still moved with the rest of the squad).
Any soldier with LMG can take this training for +5pts.
Advanced breaching training. Special Forces and all US, UK and EU troops only
Infantry squad with this training ignores “fighting through obstacle” when assaulting building from outside or
move from floor to floor. It is not used when assaulting from one building to another.
Any unit with allowance may gain this training for +1pt per model.
Foxholes
If Infantry unit with this upgrade is placed during deployment, it can use foxholes for better protection. As
long as squad does not move and keeps its initial positions, it has soft cover even while in the open.
Instead, troops may spend one turn digging in by executing “Down” order but receiving no defensive bonuses
for it. From the start of following turn, they count as being in foxhole.
Any infantry unit can be equipped to dig foxholes for +1pts per model.
Survival training
Survival trainings allow ignoring some landscape or weather rules with respective notes.
Any unit may take this training for +1pts per model.
Sniper pair
Any Sniper unit of two may take additional MR for +30pts or second sniper rifle for +45 if not said otherwise.
Any sniper unit with two MRs and/or sniper weapons (in any combination) is a Sniper pair.
Such unit receives no +1 modifier for firing sniper weapon but not counted as crew anymore.
Combat dog / keen instincts

One soldier per infantry unit can take this upgrade for +5pts.
If he is alive and his unit triggers IED or Booby trap, roll a D6. On a roll of 4+, unit receives no casualties and
pin markers.
Expansion 2. Blood on the streets.
Urban warfare at the turn of the centuries.
Battlefield complexity
Any battlefield involving buildings can certainly be considered as one of the most difficult landscapes to fight
in. Such situations as ambushes on rooftops, shooting from behind walls and corners and many others cannot
be covered by basic Bolt Action rules.
Due to this, I propose additional changes:
Orders:
“Down” - unit cannot be targeted even when within 2” of corners (see Blind shooting) and able to
immediately move 2” in any direction.
“Regroup” - order is executed without test if using second time (and subsequent) in a row.
“Ambush” - order gives the unit ability to make reaction shooting even if enemy unit is within 6” or moving
from another building etc., with additional -1 to hit.
Pin markers applying:

Shots from all light weapons and weapons with 2 or more shots not performing “Suppressing fire” deal 1 pin
marker per 8 shots (no matter hit they or not) made by unit, rather than 1 pin marker if at least one hit is
scored.
Keep counting the number of shots within one turn, as several units may summarize the effect.
Shots from MRs and GL/AGL weapons count as two.
Shots from Sniper weapons, AT cannons and ATGMs count as 4
Note that other HE weapon hits still deal usual pin markers.
Scared:
Scared units are trying to get out of enemy’s LOS (it may include entering buildings) rather than leaving table.
If unit ends its move out of enemy’s LOS it goes “Down” and removes D6 pin markers.
Blind shooting:
Any infantry models with light weapon or GL, standing within 2” of building’s corner or roof edge may fire and
be fired at if LOS is blocked by this corner or edge.
When doing this, all to hit rolls receive additional -4 penalty. Note that even if no hits were scored, pin markers
are applied as stated in previous entry.
Cover quality as universal rule.

When determining level of cover (soft, hard or fortified aka bunker-level) best way is to ask: how can weapon
interact with this obstacle?
If it may limit visibility, but very likely will be penetrated by bullet, it is soft cover.
If this obstacle may withstand light weapons fire, but will be broken by cannon shot, it is hard cover.
And if this obstacle is hard to reliably hit or penetrate even for MBT’s cannon shell, it is indeed highest-level
cover.
Examples.
Soft cover is basically all undergrowth, all buildings and trees are hard and trenches, heavy bunkers,
basements etc. are fortified.
Buildings rules.
Tower/apartment blocks.
Buildings with three and more floors is not destroyed by HE weapons hitting it and rolling 12 or more. Instead,
the 4x4” block (from the floor hit and all above) of building is collapsing instead, instantly killing all models
within and dealing HE 2D6 hits to all units within 6”.
If 18 is rolled, 6x6” block of building collapses with same consequences.
Collapsed parts of the buildings are rough ground, impassable for vehicles.
Compounds.
Compounds are cannot be entirely destroyed by rolling 12 or more. Instead, they are counted as several
buildings despite having common fences.
Ruins.
Ruins are treated as rough ground giving hard cover.
In addition, large ruins are impassable even for tanks.
Ordnance vs buildings.
If shooting at buildings, HE D3 (and better) weapons may fire at the walls in order to damage building itself,
instead of trying to kill its occupants. If doing so, weapons do not receive -2 cover modifier but reduces its
effect by two grades (so HE 2D6 becomes D3 and so on) and do not ignore “Extra protection” rule. In addition,
HE 3D6 reduce the roll needed to destroy building by 1 for each hit.
Additional units
Urban warfare veterans.
Urban warfare veterans can be taken by any Regular
army as alternative to other compulsory infantry
choices.

Expansion 3. Crimson waters.
Amphibious assaults in the new era.
While amphibious operations are already covered in Bolt Action supplements, I will try to propose some ideas
regarding number of marine-involved operations.
This entry will give some suggestions regarding fighting inside the large ships, assault of defended coastline by
large-scale forces and commando raids.
Fighting in confined space.
Pitching. Due to the floating ship being way less solid than ground, untrained troops tend to lose their
accuracy of fire.
All units except Special Forces, using the weapons without “Fixed” rule, receive -1 to hit modifier
Hail of bullets. The narrow corridors and walkways of the ship can quickly become the most terrifying killzone,
with bullets ricocheting from the steel of walls, ladders and pipes.
All natural rolls of “1” to hit can be re-rolled
Squad organization.
Due to cramped conditions of most ships, employing large units is both impractical and dangerous, therefore:
1. All Special Forces units can be fielded as either four-man teams or two-man teams. They receive no
penalties for doing this.
2. All non-Special Forces Regular and Veteran units have to be fielded as three- or four-man fireteams as
original squad composition fits best, even if it does not have the Tactical Training rule. If the unit has
no Tactical training or similar (for Russian or Chinese armies), it receives -2 to Morale.
3. All Inexperienced units are fielded as usual, their tendency to stick to each other limiting the
effectiveness in firefights. As a result, Inexperienced units receive -2 Morale modifier, and units with
more than six models receive -1 to hit penalty.
Combat divers
Combat divers can be taken instead of any other
Special Forces unit

Weapons: AR’s. model.
Special rules: • Whole squad may take Flak jackets or Ballistic
Special Forces. vests.
Maritime veterans. Combat divers never suffer from
penalties stated in Appendix 3.
Special equipment. Combat divers can fire normally
after Submerge and ignore “Full of water” rule.
Fighting amphibious operations.
Amphibious units.
Due to huge number of amphibious units in these rules, I did not make the complete list of them.
Please refer to known technical data or common sense while using them.
Amphibious unis can cross water obstacles using Advance rules and shoot as normal.
Full of water. e.
All non-amphibious units that spent at least one turn diving receive “Full of water” penalty. Next time this unit
shoots, weapon that rolls “1” to hit cannot be used in this game anymore and shooter immediately suffers hit
from it.
Unit can remove this penalty by spending one turn with “Rally” order.
Diving.
Even not amphibious units are allowed to cross water obstacles using Advance order. However they cannot
shoot and must roll D6 for every model that stays in water after the move. Every natural roll of 1 immediately
kills the model as it drowns. Models without any kind of body armor can re-roll the rolls of 1.
Submerge/Emerge.
All Special Forces and Recon units are counted as amphibious and can submerge using their equipment and
training.
Submerged units cannot be selected as targets of assault or shooting, however they receive -1 to-hit penalty
for each turn they spent submerged. This penalty lasts for one turn after moving to “ground” or emerging.
Scenario proposal – Crimson surf
Armies: one player acts as attacker, another as defender. Attacker should have two times bigger force.
Board and deploy areas: as in the drawing. Remember that defender’s deploy has to include field
fortifications for every unit (counted as solid cover)
Attacker’s mission: Move as many units as possible into defender’s deployment area
Defender’s mission: Not let attacker to achieve his goal.
Winning conditions: Attacker receives 1 point for every destroyed defender’s unit and 4 points for every
attacker’s unit in defender’s deployment area by the end of the game. Defender receives 3 points for every
attacker’s unit destroyed or immobilized.
