Bush War FUBAR V2.5 for 6 and 15mm

[wargamer1972]

Here is the second set of Bush War FUBAR that I've modified for my own games. I prefer a little more abstraction in combat with less math so my mod reflects this. I listed Craig and the FOW Group as original writers, along with citing Shawn Carpenter of Ambush Alley, with myself as the mod developer.

Again I took some mechanics from another game I like (Ambush Alley) and merged them with the great FUBAR system while incorporating some concepts from Ultra FUBAR. I have wrote the mod with small game tables in mind, 2'x2' as an example therefore no range limits on almost all weapons. In this mod I have replaced the values of expertise with a die type, i.e. Green = d6, Seasoned = d8. A 4+ die result being the universal mechanic. Optimal range that adds another die to your attack roll is still there. Your saves can still be compared to hits, to me adds a further sense of combat.

Also my upcoming "Witchhunter" and "Steampunk" mods will be based on these rules.

Thanks for looking.

In my most recent games I've noticed a "bug" if you will. So I am going to put in a fix for this and repost the V2 rules as V2.5.

The change is to weapon systems. Weapons will be classed on function vice specific item. For example, Rifles, vice Infantry, Assault, Sub, etc. Basically each squad will have 1 FP for each member, add another FP for each heavy weapon, add another FP if within optimal range. Sniper weapons FP reduced to 1 but keeps the 18" optimal range.

Flame throwers 4FP will still ignore cover and armor but have their FP rolled separate from the rest of their squad. RPGs and other heavy weapons may still target vehicles with unsaved hits rolling on the damage chart. The damage chart will be changed to reflect the amount of hits sustained, explain later.

I offer the guts of the VSF FUBAR version for your steampunk cannibalism.
