"Colonel, we have contacts all along the front. The enemy is advancing along multiple routes of attack. What are your orders?"

FiveCore Brigade Commander puts you in the largest-scale FiveCore game yet.

Each stand is a company, supported by platoon level attachments. A typical game fields a brigade/regiment on each side and is playable in an hour to an hour and a half on a 3x3 foot table or even smaller.

With the fast playing FiveCore mechanics, you have an unpredictable turn sequence, forcing you to adapt to the unfolding battle and a quick firing mechanic that tells you immediately what happened, without any follow-up damage rolls or morale tests.

Covering from the inter-war period to the present day, Brigade Commander also includes campaign rules, reference sheets, tools for solo play and a scenario generator for the complete gaming experience.

Whether you are interesting in world war 2, cold war or imaginary conflicts between made-up countries, Brigade Commander will help you put your toys on the table and getting a game going with as little difficulty as possible.

Ever wanted to play a tabletop version of first person shooters like Destiny and Unreal Tournament (see? I'm hip with the kids AND old school)?

Wanted to do it with FiveCore?

Now you can! FragStorm gives you 10 game modes and plenty of scope for complications. You can play pick-up games or an ongoing league where players come and go on your team.

All you need is 6 miniatures each, preferably painted in a nice, bright, futuristic look.

That and $2.99   

19 page PDF. No artwork in this one.
This is an expansion rather than a stand alone game, so you need a copy of FiveCore to make the most out of it.

It'll work with either 1st or 2nd edition.
