From what I saw it was a fairly simple and straightforward set of rules. I gave the detailed rules only a cursory overview, not having the time to pour through it or run through some trials. As I recall it was based on an earlier version of Warhammer 40K, so it has that’ ‘classic wargame’ feel from the looks of it. The rules themselves look pretty straightforward.The typeset is easy to read, and the graphics are lush without getting in the way of reading the rulebook, unlike some other products I’ve seen. The layout and production values are excellent, especially for a historical miniatures product. I’ve been considering Flames of War for the simple reasons of it being both a relatively simple and relatively popular set of rules for World War II combat. I got a chance to flip through the 2nd edition Flames of War rulebook over the weekend.
