Sci-fi battles

[andrew_kenrick]

Can anyone recommend me a good set of mass combat rules for space battles, and sci-fi ground battles? Do any exist? And if not, how about some good mass combat rules for another setting that would be easy to adapt?

MGP has some decent Mass Combat rules in their Quint. Fighter. It isn't sci-fi, but its designed to keep the unit stats as close to individual stats as possible (the unit hp is the total of its Hit Die. A units damage is equivalent to the damage of the avaerage weapon carried in the unit, doing HD in damage to another unit) . Heros are treated as separate entities.

Well,

Check out Full Thrust and Dirtside. The rules are now free and available in the downloads section at www.gzg.com.

Full thrust are definitely good rules - quick and easy to use, but not too simple.
