Excellent set of scenarios for an excellent set of rules. Lots of variations in units plus the basic history make the scenarios really fun and challeging to play. Lots of replayability due to the dice factor making it possible for a weak unit to defeat a strong one sometimes (just like in history). These are all playable in about 15-20 minutes and are quite absorbing to me at least :-)

A fantastic set of rules for younger gamers or beginners, and great for a laid back and quality wargaming session. I really enjoy many of Echidna's titles and this one has been added to my top favorites. Please check it out!

Fun, light rules for small scale skirmishes but it needs more rules to helop flesh out the melee combat. The rules have their origins in a system make primarily to run Wild West shootouts and this shows. I personally feel there should be rules for unit facing, attacks from the flanks and rear, and rules for formations such as shield walls. I'm already fiddling around with some house rules to try to implement these along with a hybrid system allowing larger formation sizes using a combo of this book and the rules from Bigger Battles....

Great rule set. Recently played using it at HMGS's Cold Wars. Easy to learn and use with just enough detail to make play interesting. Focuses on important elements of Medieval warfare without sacraficing playability. I would recommend giving it a try.

A very basic set of Fantasy skirmish rules, which is an ideal introduction for youngsters or those new to the hobby. Using 'standard' D6 for all combats, with a few basic modifiers, it provides a game which is easy to pick up, fast paced and quite bloody. A game will probably last 20-30 minutes. A little more explanation of terrain effects might have been helpful.
This ruleset could also be useful for quick resolution of combats in a campaign situation where the narrative overrides need for fine details....

Great set of rules for younger gamers or those new to the hobby. Combat mechanics are easy to teach and are similar enough to most common combat mechanics to provide foundational experience. The strength of these rules is party building. How party building is presented makes it easy to get started while not being overcomplicated while at the same time providing enough flavor to make it interesting.
This is a great product with such a variety of units included. I printed mine out in A5 size and the stands are sized wonderfully at 40mm wide by 30mm deep, Thank you so much! I've just completed a Royalist army, and will start work on the Parliamentarians tomorrow. I'm excited about the hours of wargaming fun to come!
Looks very good even on 0.4mm average PLA 3d printer. I will for sure buy and print other minis
Can't wait for more elves, hobbits and dwarves options ;)
Inked Adventures products are simply fantastic. Great value for money considering the work that's gone into hand drawing all of these designs, high levels of utility in mapping out dungeons (and other locations) on the fly, and aesthetically wondrous with their old school, artisinal appearance. Back in ye olden tymes I remember having a box of floor tiles made by Games Workshop (in their pre-Warhammer days) and Inked Adventures reminds me a lot of that.
I print out the files onto card and then cover them with sticky backed clear plastic sheet before cutting them out - this for durability. Everyone I've used them with in game loves the designs - they add just enough to the physicality of the tabletop without undermining the players' imagination. Just fantastic, one of my all time favourite RPG products....
Great models, I love the cartoony look and the colors are nice. Take your time, use a ruler to help score things. I personally use CA glue rather than white glue: it cures quickly and adds some heft to the cardstock!

So I've been playing Hail of Fire for going on 9 years now. I love the system and amount of work the author put into their rules. Truely feels like a game anyone can pick up and have a great time. I've ran it at multiple conventions, and everyone always has great feedback and always enjoys their time. Alot of time they come back multiple years to keep playing. Honestly a really good job by the author! Definately woth the download and taking the time to learn!
I played my first game of this last night at my club and had a lot of fun. There were four of us, working in pairs to play each 3-person squad and none of us had played this or any other Exploit Zero-related game before.
The fact that I was able to pick up the game rules in the early afternoon, print them out and prepare my minis etc later that day, and then 'host' a game for my friends that evening speaks volumes. There was plenty happening, lots of exciting close calls, definitely some tactical and other errors, all of which made for a memorable evening. I can see us trying this again before long!
Amongst the many things that made the game work was the largely pre-set units (which cut down set-up, 'list buidling' time) coupled with the quick to generate objective-focused game - it wasn't simply a "destroy your enemy" affair, which gave the game all the more depth....
I was skeptical at first looking at the minis on the screen. Shouldn't be! On paper they look awesome and beautiful. I really like this art style and finally I can create a custom dwarf warband for One Page Rule. Four stars only because a multi layered PDF would be a much better and friendlier option than the static PDF you get.
