About the Game

MechaWar is the first title from the One Pound Wargames imprint of Precinct Omega Publishing. The game gives complete rules for building your forces of mighty mech walkers and pitting them in intense tactical combat against your opponent.

Use simple resource allocation to build and customize your force of mechs in minutes. Play on any flat surface with a few pieces of terrain and any collection of mecha miniatures. Skirmish-style action with alternating activation, each mech operating independently. Intuitive combat uses dice to generate both range and accuracy for shooting as well as to resist and repair damage. Manage your actions to pursue your objective or react dynamically to your opponent's manoeuvres. Works for scales from 6mm to 15mm. Includes advanced rules to customize your mechs as engineer, minelayer, commander or assault mechs. Includes three starting scenarios.

This game eventually evolved into "Horizon Wars" published by Osprey https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/193700/horizon-wars-science-fiction-combined-arms-wargami
