HOF Fire-Team is an original dynamic tactical game with a setting from ultra modern to the far future. Fire Team pits squads of soldiers, guerrillas, police, and thieves or just about anyone else with a grudge against one another. Use miniatures from your existing collection, on single bases, or add any new ones of your choice. Players command a number of Teams. These being Fire Teams, Support Teams, Command Teams and trusting to sound small unit tactics and the luck of the dice they attempt to carry out their mission objectives.

Craig over at ORCS IN THE WEBBE has put all of the former Barking Irons magazine scenarios, solo play rules and more for HOF FT up to read.  Click through for these.

Released in 2012 there are independent articles and reviews online for this game.  Go HERE for Rob Alderman's video review on Youtube and HERE for Dropship Horizon Blog and its interview about the game.  Note when released this game was from 15mmcouk which was and is a part of Alternative Armies.

HOF Fire-Team is played on 'Battle Boards' de-marked into a 20mm squared grid. These set squares allow for easy and instant measurement of game distances for movement and weapons fire along with the relation between every miniature in play and possible cover. Play is easy and lethal. Using a unique D6 mechanic based on the Firefight 2.0 engine combined with an innovative 'tech level' for all troops and the 'waypoint' mission driver this game promises fast and intense action in a compact playing area. Play in a place of your choosing even if it is too small for other 'open terrain' wargames.

Written by Bob Minadeo with Gavin Syme.  Artwork by Andy Gorman.
