Close Quarters: Skirmish Miniatures Rules

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

SpecOps missions. Prisoner rescues. Data retrieval. Ambush the enemy, sabotage his equipment and installations. Completing your mission is critical; any casualties are acceptable.

Close Quarters: Skirmish, based on our boardgame of the same name, is a fast-paced SciFi miniatures game of small-scale combat operations, suitable for 15mm to 28mm figure scales. Each model represents an individual trooper, vehicle, or crewed weapon; game sizes can range from 12 to 50-60 models (a reinforced platoon of infantry, or a cross attached armored or airborne company), and last from 45 minutes up to a couple of hours.

During each game turn, players activate a variable number of models in one of four segments (couplets) in an effort to complete each mission’s objectives – or to prevent their opponent from completing his. The game includes:

  • Easy to play game mechanics, with most functions resolved by the roll of a single die.
  • Basic rules for infantry, support weapons, vehicles, crewed weapons, and indirect fire (including off-board artillery)
  • 22 optional rules for players wanting a more detailed or varied game
  • Dozens of weapons, troop attributes, and vehicle systems to choose from
  • Field officers, NCOs, snipers, hackers, sappers, MBTs, tank destroyers, IFVs, VTOLs, antitank guns, power armor troopers, and a number of possibilities for some very non-human opponents
  • 11 standard scenarios that scale in both table size and number of game turns depending on the forces chosen for use by each player
  • A campaign game system that allows your men to improve over the course of the conflict
  • Complete rules for creating and fielding forces of your own design
  • Four pre-generated forces, representing human and alien factions in the late 25th century, along with TO&E and unit stats for each
  • Two playable sample campaign game forces
  • Blank, edit-enabled troop/vehicle and campaign game roster PDF forms
  • All necessary game markers, templates, and charts

Whether your mission takes place in an industrial complex, in the open field, or within the confines of a starship’s corridors, Close Quarters: Skirmish places the success or failure of each mission into the most capable hands: yours.

Nice going mate - I recently bought these rules and was thinking of taking them for a spin myself. The whole turn/couplet thing looks interesting, something I'll have to try in due course.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
