TacWWII

In the last couple of years I've rediscovered the TacWWII rules by Chris Pringle and Nick Mitchell. 

They (the rules not Chris and Nick) are old-school in terms of production design but none-the-worse for that. 

I thought I'd add a page here to give people an easy way to access my various posts on the rules and how I use them.

Getting the Rules

TacWWII is out of print but you can find a pdf scan of the original rules and my revised version at the dedicated Facebook Group. It's set to private so you'll need approval before you can download a copy.


The Rules in Use

Blatno - playing though a few turns of TacWWII
