BETA GAMING RULES
Playtesting in progress!


 

Support wildly irresponsible gaming research
 
 

No animals were harmed while testing these rules
 
The miniature wargaming rules posted below are in the Beta stage, which means they have been playtested but may still receive updates without much notice. Beta rules are fully playable and have most associated supporting features such as combat charts and game stats posted with the rules. New features (if/when they appear) may be posted after further playtesting, and there may be bugs that need ironing out in case of some major beta change (known to happen). Once the lengthy beta posting period finishes, these rules will typically be released to the main WTJ Games page.
