Battle Mechanica Progress Update (6th Oct 2008)

This is just a progress update for Battle Mechanica. Please bear in mind that this is a Work In Progress (WIP), which means that the game is incomplete and is subject to change at any time by the designer.

Another small update. I've added a "General Rules" section to the rulebook, which contains brief information of the following:
  1. How distances are measured
  2. Unit formations, Unit Types and Characters
  3. Unit movements
  4. Model's field-of-vision and how to check a its line-of-sight
  5. Model profiles
  6. A brief overview of the game's flow of play
  7. Made some changes to the types of Ranged Attacks:
  8. Changed 'Burst' to 'Directed Burst', which is a fan-shaped area-based ranged attack, like flamethrowers.
I'm working on the Turns and Phases next, and after that I'll be working on the rules for Movement. Before then, check out this post from Life In Borneo about the recent bloggers gathering in North Borneo, or visit the forum that I frequent to, ClickStartPlay.com. I go by the handle shiVER.

  1. Hi! I know I am almost ten years late, but I just stumbled in here casually browsing for creative commons wargames, and I can see the blog is still alive, but no updates on this particular game since 2008? Was ever a rulebook published? Did the game change name or morph into some other game that was posted later? Very interesting project anyway! /Pelle

    1. Sorry for the really late reply and thank you for your interest! Sadly though the game designer who did this lost interest and is pursuing another project.
