Squad Hammer Core - Peoples Edition
Welcome to Squad Hammer! Squad Hammer is a simple¸ fast playing and tactical set of "Friendly rules": Perfect for getting some old miniatures off that shelf and on to the gaming table. Game play is simple to explain without lacking options and is perfectly suited to Beer&Pretzels night or a club game. Units are typically squads of infantry¸ single vehicles or big monsters. All mechanics use plain six sided dice¸ with morale and damage combined into a single tracking mechanism. * * * * * Squad Hammer is the core system used in other of our titles¸ including Trench Hammer and our premium WW2 rules Hammer of Democracy. While each title is subtly different¸ you will be able to transition between them with ease. Core is a polished up and stream lined version of the original Squad Hammer rules set¸ focusing on giving you the key tools you need to play. If you want more mechanics and ideas¸ you can always expand later. Note that if you already own the original Core version¸ only cosmetic changes are included here. Only pay for the new version if you want to support Nordic Weasel Games with additional funding. * * * * * Note that this version is PAY WHAT YOU WANT. You can grab it for any amount you feel is fair. We've put 9.99 as a suggested price to support continued development¸ but go ahead and read through the game first¸ then come back and throw some money at us once you've seen what the rules can do. What is the Peoples Edition? Simply put¸ this version includes a license allowing you to base your own game material on the Squad Hammer Core mechanics. Create army lists¸ expansion content or even your own games using our rules as a base and distribute them for free or commercially. You are also welcome to share this game with your friends (though we encourage you to have them download it from here¸ so they get notified of future updates). * * * * * Update on September 5 2021 The download now includes the original Squad Hammer rulebook as well.
