Armageddon War

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Following disease, famine, and economic collapse among the world's first-line powers, conventional war erupts in the Mid-East for what arable land remains. Old allies join the carnage, and the war grows, pitting age-old adversaries and their new friends against each other. Armageddon War depicts the chaos in the midst of this war.

Armageddon War is a platoon level game set in the near future. The first module focuses on the Mid-East, pitting Israelis, Russians, and Americans against age-old adversaries. We hope you feel that the game is a breath of fresh air in the war gaming world. There are no turns, just continuous activations. The intensity of a unit's close combat modifier is determined not only by its weapons but also by the tactics you choose to use for the assault or defense, and when you fire on a unit, it has the option of taking cover, or returning fire. The number of dice and the color of dice rolled, determine the number of hits.

[Dice are required to play Armageddon War]

Game Includes

  • 2 x full color 22" x 33" maps (Home printer 8.5 x 11 versions included).
  • 4 x sheets of gorgeous, 1" counters. Including Israeli Merkavas, American Abrams, Russian T-90s, Militia, Fantatics, RPG-29s, and much more.
  • 1 x Full-color rule and scenario book, including 16 scenarios.
  • 1 x Player Aid Card.
  • Color Dice decals (Red, Green, and Black)

Sorry. Thanks for answering here. I guess I was upset and got the wrong impression because I couldn't get any response from FPG via email (I sent a few vie your website) nor on Facebook.

You know. I actually tried ordering the physical game from Flying Pig Games but the website won't let me. Although it allows selecting Japan it won't let me proceed to payment because it says it can't calculate shipping. Therefore I have to use MyUS.com with a Florida address which MyUS.com then relay-ships the package to me in Japan...and that is at least 75$.

I'm not so sure I want to deal with Flying Pig games. They never answer my attempts to contact them via email nor on Facebook and their usage of Letter (USA only) over A4 (international) format shows contempt to potential customers.

There's no contempt. Just a lack of manpower and time. We are sorry if this inconvenienced you.

"There are no turns, just continuous activations."
Is there any other game that has this mechanic?

You can say that there are 'turns' in this game. Once you finished with all the activation chits and reshuffle, it is a turn completed. I don't find it has much impact nor differences on game play compared to other games. It feels the same.

Thanks. If this is not that unique compared to other games, are you familiar with 'Manila: The Savage Streets, 1945' or 'Stalingrad: Advance to the Volga, 1942'. Both of these games are by the same designer and use 'Area Impulse" gameplay. If you are familiar with these two games do you think they are unique or not when compared to Armageddon War, and most other IGOUGO games.

Hi; is the pnp ready to print in A4 format? would rather not convert all files from Letter or other formats... Thanks.

It is NOT. It comes in Letter format, so be warned you have to make some manipulations to the counter sheets to be able to correctly feed an A4 printer, eg to print on self-adhesive paper to later stick onto EPVC or grey compact cardboard.
Nothing complicated for a seasoned crafter but not European-friendly.
And yes, I know you could purchase self-adhesive Letter-sized paper or just print in normal Letter paper and then glue etc. But I did not want extra costs for this project and everything I have for crafting pnp games is A4 and wholesale, so YMMV...

The dice are fully unusable because they have my name very large printed on all side of all dice. In Europe we have privacy law that forbids playing with dice that disclose your full name. Help us Mark H. Walker, you are our only hope!!

The problem was solved within days, so the dice problem is fixed. Thanks, looking forward to all the printing and glueing.

DriveThru Watermarked Dice files have text over the dice faces for me. I'd have to edit the file myself to remove the watermark.

How do you play this downloadable game if it has unique dice?

You have for each colour dice pdf files of all six dice sides. So you need blank dice, print and glue them to the dice. You can get them on eBay.

Or just do a little table with the outcomes next to the 1-6 of the dice roll.

If I buy this, is there a way to play solo on Vassal or Tabletop Simulator?

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.
