Scenario Generation System

Spearhead is a rules systems that is designed for scenario based play. That is, players are encouraged to play scenarios where a certain tactical situation is outlined and players then allocate their resources to achieve the outcome.

The following rules and supporting material are designed to generate scenario style games games without formal scenario development. My aim was not to replace scenario games, but rather allow World War II Spearhead games, as well as Modern Spearhead games, to be played where scenario development is not possible due to time constraints or lack of forces.

One significant advantage of the system is that a player can build and use an initial army then, as his collection increases, add various additional options.

The system is designed to produce reinforced battlegroup scenarios which are playable in around three to four hours.
