Interesting, I had a look at the game´s website,

The figures seem a good start for a Warhammer 40000 version at 1/72 (some figures look like Space Marines, Eldar, Imperial guard, Necron..). maybe making also some conversions from Caesar Orcs (giving them maybe some rifles and german stalhelms for instance) you have all the stuff for a CHEAPER WH40K vesion....

Hy, first of all I beg your pardon for my terrible English.

I’ve write the CW rules.
I’m really happy for your attention.

In a future not so far, human society are fallen thank to an asteroid that impact the moon.
The cataclysm event with extinct level event, have changed the earth geography and the economies of the nations collapsed.
Humans are near to extinction, but thank to retroengineering on the handmade objects discovered in a lost alien base in a few years the human realize the FTL technology necessary to reach the stars.

When the starship expedition approach the first star quadrant called Next, they discover that human are not alone, but so many races live in the space, all in search of something

The game is really simple: every army are organized around an Officer. Player play with a Platoon, lead with an officer and composed generally by riflers, paratroopers or transported infantry, reinforced with vehicles or special forces.

The rules are based on alternate activation, one unit for player.
The active unit can obey to his officer, making two orders (elite troopers 3). Every order can be realized once in for activation, but it can be realized in the preferred sequence: so a unit can move and shoot, shoot and move, aim and shoot, shoot and go to ground improving the unit defense against enemies ranged attack.
There also the chance to make close

The officer can use special and unique orders: with this order they can rally fleeing troops, or activate an inactivated unit. Officer can be equipped with special gear that allow to increase their command or combat skills.
