I wanted to initially write as the topic Table Top Jagged Alliance 2, but I decided that was too blasphemous. For the last couple years I've been working on a table top game inspired by Jagged Alliance, which is called The Way of War. The game is similar to Jagged Alliance in that it is a turn based tactical role playing game, but you play on the table top instead. Now I've been playing the game using Action Figures, GI JOE figures to be precise, but the rules are open in that you could use miniatures or any other type of figures you wish, the difficulty is just that you have to create your own battlefield for your figures to play on. I've got the free version of the game posted on my site The Way of War
Check out the Game Features section to find out more details of the game, the products section has the free version that you can download and peruse at your leisure.

It doesn't look like anyone responds to this group of messages anymore but I've noticed quite a few people are checking out my links from here.
So I thought I would post a new update on some additions to my game and site. I've got out a new Quick Play Tutorial Guide (only ten pages long and its free too) that allows people to get a handle on the game in short amount of time providing you with only some information that you need to know. To find out more take a look at the link:
http://www.thewayofwar.net/products
This may not appeal to you modern wargamers, but those of you into scifi/fantasy my first campaign book is out, called Zombie Apocalypse, which as you can imagine involves fighting zombies. The campaign book uses the same rule system, but includes more rules and campaigns on fighting zombies. Zombie Apocalypse is actually made up of 3 smaller campaigns that are linked together. I'll describe the three campaigns below, but for you modern wargamers I've included another Combat Search and Rescue mission example called CSAR mission 2 it has lots of pictures and a play by play, which you can find at the link http://thewayofwar.net/game-examples
Now for those Zombie Apocalypse campaigns
The first campaign is called Suburban Nightmare, which is about a group of survivors trying to survive in their suburban neighborhood. They have to go out and gather supplies in order to ensure their own survival as well as fight off zombie hordes. There's a fair bit of item creation in this campaign as well as you can design items and defenses for your neighborhood.
The second campaign is called The Convoy and is about a group of survivors driving across the zombie wasteland trying to get to a place of safety. You'll have to find food and fuel to keep the convoy going and you don't have time to make anything. Everything that keeps your people going is what you can scavenge.
The third campaign is called Out of the Ashes. Here the survivors of the Convoy make it to the Suburban Nightmare and the two groups form a civilization that has to compete with two other factions that are aiming to take control of the wasteland. You'll have to take locations and hold them against enemy attack. You'll have to decide carefully which faction you trust. The Ex-Patriots a group of ex-military survivors or the Snakes a group of raiders, thieves and thugs who've banded together.
Check it out all at on the Products section of my site.

I've just finished updating the two campaign books Zombie Apocalypse and Raiding Operations: Hit and Run on the Drug Trade, so that they are now compatible with the new Easy Edition version of the Way of War. You can get your hands on my campaign books from my website http://www.thewayofwar.net/products or from rpgnow.com
