Modern warfare

[0-hr]

I'd like to throw a battle or two into my Modern campaign but need a set of rules for the fight on a larger scale.

Is there something for modern times like the Mongoose (Open Warfare?) system or those other fantasy-based unit-level rules out there? If not, has anyone tried using some of the fantasy-based systems for modern stuff (ie. tanks and guns)?

Blood and Guts, which will also give you a lot of information on military and special operations characters, also includes the Battlefield Unit Combat System, which makes combats of up to 100 on each side quick and painless and takes modern tactics and equipment into account.

You can find information here: www.rpgobjects.com

And I would check out Psion's recent review here at Enworld as well.

Just to toss some quick props Chuck's way...

I don't own Blood and Guts, but I own several other "Blood and..." works, and they are all top-notch products well worth the price, if not more.

And, as you may have noticed, the ever-gregarious author hangs out on these boards and is very often Johnny-on-the-spot with any advice or clarifications to his various works.
