The miniature wargaming rules posted below are in
the Beta stage, which means they have been playtested but may still receive updates without much notice. Beta rules are fully playable and have most associated supporting features such as combat charts and game stats posted with the rules. New features may be posted after further playtesting, but these rules are all slated for release to the main WTJ Games page - where they will still be free. Rules listed closest to the top of the page are nearest to being published to the main WTJ Gaming page.
A few highlights about WTJ rule sets:
- Free - All rule sets are free, including all charts, rules text, everything. That applies to both final release and beta test rules.
- Combat Charts - All major game play can be done with a single, printable, two-sided combat chart. No looking up long lists of modifiers out of a notebook. It can make for a busy combat chart, but those charts are given a lot of thought on how to make them work as smoothly as possible.
- Final Results - The rules are meant to give convincing final results, while condensing or streamlining action mid-battle (where justified) to keep things moving.
