📖 About This Game

Men Under Fire is a one-to-one scale miniatures wargame, using individually-mounted figures, vehicles, and heavy weapons. It is a tactical wargame, not a skirmish game. Players control as much as a full company of troops on the table, and maneuver squads and platoons as units. The game uses D6-based fast-playing rules, while still capturing the command challenges of keeping a squad or platoon moving forward under enemy fire. Complete rules, easy to read, with extensive diagrams, and design notes spread throughout the text which explain the reasoning behind the rules and give historical examples. The Just Another Mission system for generating historical forces for balanced one-on-one battle games. Unit organizations for the US Army, US Marine Corps, Great Britain, Germany, Japan, and the Soviet Union throughout World War II. Complete equipment lists for all of the above armies.
