Combat! is a relaxed game of World War II ground combat in the style of old Hollywood pictures. The game features a modified UGOIGO system (with initiative rolls at the start of each turn) that can be ditched for a straight forward UGOIGO for those who prefer that.
Combat! is base and scale agnostic, so feel free to use whatever you have on hand to play army men in the finest of movie traditions.
Three bases represent a company, and the game rewards combined arms tactics.
One of the many fun aspects of Combat! is the Epic Scene, allowed once per side, where players may summon their inner Cecil B. DeMille and motivate their forces to the highest level of valor.
Like all 4P games, Combat! comes with a rather extensive unit list, including non-combatants for what-ifs. You also get interwar kit, because it’s really cool.
If you’re looking for a fun game where you can push around nice toys and not worry about intricate rules, Combat! is for you.
