Description

Dirtside II is a comprehensive set of generic rules for simulating science fiction battles in virtually any background or "future history".

The system covers combined-arms actions from a few platoons up to a full battalion combat group level. Rules are included for infantry, AFV's of all types, artillery, aerospace support and landings, combat walkers and much more. The game is designed for use with 1:300/1:285 scale miniatures but will function equally well with 1:200 or other scales. The game has a flexible integrated game sequence, chartless combat system, vehicle design and points value system and more.
