Mayfair Games  The Forever War Squad level combat in the third millennium based on Joe Haldeman's Hugo winning novel. -W "They moved fast across the mine field, striding in unison like bowlegged, top-heavy robots, not even breaking stride when one of them was blown to bits by a mine, which happened eleven times. At first, Brill's troops had the overwhelming advantage; fighting from ditches, they could only be harmed by an occasional lucky shot or an extremely well-aimed grenade (which Taurans threw by hand). Brill had lost four, but it looked as if the Tauran force was down to less than half its original size. Eventually, the landscape had been torn up enough so that the bulk of the Tauran force was able to fight from holes in the ground. The fighting slowed down to individual laser duels, punctuated occasionally by heavier weapons. But it wasn't smart to use up a tachyon rocket against a single Tauran, not with another force of unknown size only a few minutes away. (Featuring 'A Million Wars' a new article by JOE HALDEMAN Including the tactics and weapons of Forever War and his own Vietnam experiences.)
