You are a commander in the midst of a Great Conflict! Muster your group of soldiers and lead them through wars from the Napoleonic to the post-WWII era. A fast, agnostic, minimalistic skirmish wargame where your squad's stats and equipment are generated directly from your personal data (name, birth date, and place). Featuring hidden orders, unique stat-based combat, and optional campaign systems, Patria is perfect for history buffs and players who love emergent, challenging list-building! 1. What Makes It Unique? Patria is a minimalistic, totally agnostic skirmish wargame covering eras from the Napoleonic Wars to the post-WWII period. Player-Driven Roster: Soldier stats (Aim, Vigor, Courage), weapons, and inventory are uniquely generated from your personal name, surname, and birth date/month. Core gameplay uses hidden, simultaneous order assignment, making every turn tense and unpredictable. 2. What to Expect on the Table Personal Data Roster: Your stats and gear are uniquely tied to the player's identity. Hidden Orders: Secretly assign orders (e.g., Shoot, Run, Hide) for simultaneous resolution. Stat-Based Combat: Compare your soldier's Aim against the target's Vigor using a single, universal table. Stress & Morale: Use your Courage stat to pass crucial Stress Tests and manage the cruelties of war. Medals: Earn Medals by performing specific actions to spend on critical re-rolls. Optional Campaign System: Booty of War and Map Campaign rules allow for tracking progression, losses, and recruitment between games. 3. What You Need to Know Model count: 2 main soldiers + 1-3 Unknown Militants per player. Miniature scale: Any! It is miniature agnostic. Game length: Variable (scenario/player count dependent). Players: Any (Solo, Coop, or Free-for-All). Components required: D6 dice, measuring tool, character trackers, secret order tokens. 4. Modularity & Expandability Compatible with any scale of historical/generic miniatures. Includes an optional "Constructed List Format" for traditional point-budget list building. It includes new modules like ALIEN INVASION, HELLISH WEAPONS, ZOMBIE INVASION and MUCH MORE! Solo Play Support: Rules for Solo Play and NPC Patriots with algorithmic behavior.
