Meta wars uses the Bolt Action rules....but with a few house rules.
1 ) Unpainted miniatures cost double points.
2 ) Measuring ranges ; measure from between the closest miniatures between firing and target units. All miniatures count firing from that range.
3 ) Medics ; see thread. (Medic activates and must get into contact with wounded to heal them on a 4+ )
4 ) Artillery Barrage ; on a roll of 1 on the table ..... barrage scatters ( scatter dice )1d20+4" and resolve barrage as usual.
5 ) Mechs ; move as half-tracks, count same armour all round, Mechs only fire to their front arc.
6 ) Missiles ; costed as guns, may not move and fire, targets do not get cover bonuses.
7 ) Down ; A unit that goes Down benefits from a -2 to be hit instead of -1.
8 ) 7+ to hit ; Instead of rolling a 6 twice.......half the number of attacks rounding down, (but always get 1 die). ((KoW rule.))
9 ) HQ's in Meta Wars can add their morale bonus to AFV, as they represent combined arms combat groups.
( rather than support from other regiments )
10 ) Commanders can take a rally action to remove pin markers from any unit, when the Commander activates.
11 ) Infantry movement reduced to 4" Advance and 8" Run. ( Fixing; To many close assaults ! / Transports more useful )

I have made a sort of map of the star system in which this campaign exists (as I imagine it!). It's two planets (Ares, humanoids and Eros, reptilians) in the Beta Sirius system fighting for a third planet (Hera). There is also an asteroid belt where both parties have mining interests - could be used in the future? Also, Ares has another colony on Gaia which is seeking independence - colonies eh! Who'd have 'em?

Red Team losses from 2 games:
Force #2
1 Regular Unit = 90pts
Force #1
1 Regular Unit (3 figures) = 75pts
1 Helicopter = 140pts
1 Sniper = 50pts
1 F/O = 60pts
Total = 325pts
Grand Total = 415pts
Add 90pts not replaced from previous games
Total = 505pts.
Reinforcement roll 400pts + Bonus 100pts + 70pts carried over = 570pts - 505pts to replace all losses = 65pts carried over.

Lizardmen Losses
Company #1 Veterans .....4 infantry squads @ 115 = 460 AP / 3 snipers @ 50 AP = 150 AP / 1 ALO 320 AP total = 930 AP
Company #2 Regulars ...........1 infantry squad @ 100 AP
Company #3 Conscripts .......... 1 infantry squad @ 75 AP / 1 sniper 50 AP
As I have 1000 AP to spend, I will replace all losses from the Veteran Company #1 ( 930 AP ) and keep the 70 points for next time.
Reinforcement roll 800 AP + bonus 200 + 0 carry over = 1000 AP - 930 to replace losses to Company #1 = 70 AP

It's called a Hot Dog!
). What do you think? I thought whoever controls the spaceport can bring in some reinforcements there as well as HQ.
