Star Wars Miniature Battles GAME CRIB SHEET

Straight Skill Test: Roll 1D6 + Trooper’s skill level, then compare to the test’s “difficulty level.” If the score is equal
to or higher than the difficulty, the trooper passes; if the score is lower, he fails.

Opposed Test: Both Players roll 1D6 + the relevant skill or modifiers. The higher score wins.

For both types of skill tests, these rules apply:

A die roll of 1 is a “bomb out” (no modifiers are added and the total score is 0).
A die roll of 6 leads to a “rollover” bonus (roll die again and add to total score).

THE GAME TURN

1 – Initiative Phase: Each Player rolls 1D6 + Command skill. Highest score has initiative.

2 – Movement Phase: Players alternate moving squads in initiative order. Troopers must maintain “command
distance” equal to Command skill in inches. Your squad may:
– Remain stationary You may “opportunity fire” on another moving squad during the phase if you pass a
morale test, or you may fire normally during the Fire Combat Phase.
– Walk You may move your troopers’ Walk Rate or less in inches. You may fire normally during the Fire
Combat Phase at a +1 difficulty.
– Run You may move your troopers’ Run Rate or less in inches. Wounded troopers may not run and the squad
may not fire during the Fire Combat Phase.
– Charge into Close Assault Combat You may move your troopers’ Run Rate or less into base-to-base contact
with enemy troopers. Charging squad must pass a morale test, and the defending squad takes a morale test to
recieve a charge. The defending squad takes defensive fire at a +1 difficulty.
– Troopers already in Close Assault Combat may change facing or attempt to disengage.

Movement over...
Clear Terrain: Move standard move rates in inches.
Rough Terrain (includes stairs): Costs 2x movement.
Moderate Barriers (includes doors): Cost 2” to cross.

3 – Fire Combat Phase: All fire is simultaneous. A squad must:

– Target one enemy squad in line of sight (90° arc to front).
– Meaure Range, using the average distance between squads, and compare to the weapons ranges to determine
the base difficulty of the shot:

Base Difficulty Modifiers for Target Condition Modifiers for Firer Conditions
Short Range: 6 (majority of squad) Walking: +1
Medium Range: 8 Light Cover: +1 Opportuinty Fire: +1
Long Range: 10 Medium Cover: +2 Defensive Fire: +1
Heavy Cover: +3 Seperated from Squad: +1
Prone: +1 Shaken: +1
Demoralized: +2

Damage Results:
Weapons Damage Strength roll < target’s STR roll No Effect
Weapons Damage Strength roll ≥ target’s STR roll Wound
Weapons Damage Strength roll ≥ target’s STR roll+4 Incapacitated

Wound: Figure is laid prone an marked as wounded May stand up next turn at a cost of 2”. All attributes and skills
are at a -1 and trooper cannot run.
Incapitated: Figure is removed from table at the end of the Morale Phase.
4 – Close Assault Combat Phase: To determine hits: Enemy soldiers in base-to-base contact make opposed tests
using 1D6 + Melee Combat skill (if armed with melee weapons) or Brawling skill (if unarmed).
Modifiers to Close Assault Combat attacks:

Charged this turn +1 Attacked from side or rear -2

Defending barrier +1 Prone -2
Squad is demoralized or broken Seperated from squad -1
(per additional trooper) +2 Shaken -1
Gaffe Stick +1 Demoralized -2
To determine damage, make opposed rolls:
Attacker rolls 1D6 + STR (+1 for Gaffe Stick)
Target rolls 1D6 + STR (+armor modifiers)
Close Assault Combat uses the same “Damage Results” table at Fire Combat.
Forceback and advance: The squad which recieved more casualties is forced back 4” with the same facing, unless it
outnumbers the enemy squad. The winning squad advances 4” (if defending a barrier, the squad makes a difficulty 6
Command test to stay).
5 – Morale Phase: A morale test is an opposed roll of 1D6 + Command vs. 1D6 + threat level.
Squads With troopers Wounded or Incapacitated this turn Squads with reduced morale may attempt to rally.

Vehicle Fire Combat
Vehicle mounted weapons use following fire. Ranges below close are point blank, base difficulty 4.
Add weapon’s Fire Control to gunner’s Vehicle Blasters skill. Fire linked = 1 roll to hit vs. 1 target.
Driver firing a weapon while driving uses Vehicles Blasters skill at difficulty +1.
Passengers fire small arms from moving vehicle (when allowed) at +1 difficulty; no long range targets allowed.
Firing at Vehicle: Cover value: roll 1D6; roll ≥ cover value means rider is hit; roll < cover value means vehicle is hit.
