A bare-bones set of tactical miniatures rules for depicting squad- or platoon-level World War II actions, ostensibly in 1944 Europe. The only real tie that the rules have to the setting is a five-page list of game statistics for small arms used by combatants who fought in the European Theater.

A bare-bones set of tactical miniatures rules for depicting squad- or platoon-level World War II actions, ostensibly in 1944 Europe. The only real tie that the rules have to the setting is a five-page list of game statistics for small arms used by combatants who fought in the European Theater. However, the abbreviated rulebook contains no scenarios, organizational info, or other historical background.
Each 15 or 25mm figure represents an individual soldier. Each soldier is rated on a characteristics sheet for various abilities: weapon, hand to hand (combat), throwing, recovery (from "shock"), and survival. During character creation these statistics are modified based on a National Characteristics chart which provides various percentage adjustments to weapon, hand to hand, and survival ability die rolls for German, British, American, Italian, and Russian troops.
—User summary
Precis Intermedia brings back this classic set of WWII miniatures rules. Originally published in 1978 by Wee Warriors, Dogtags is designed for action on a squad to platoon level, and may be played with 25mm or 15mm figures. Recreate the most difficult and demanding actions that were daily encounters for the long-faced G.I.'s of WWII. Enact small unit tactics with you as the NCO. Can you take a strong point without excessive loss to your fighting strength? And can you hold off that next German assault? You have to answer questions such as these from game to game as you learn the importance of tactics and a good NCO to carry them out. It's up to you to hold victory in your hands -- or just a collection of dogtags.
This piece of gaming history is a must for collectors, old school gamers, and those looking for a fast-playing WWII miniatures skirmish game. With the original on the extremely rare list, this classic reprint of Dogtags has been remastered for a clean print, and is readily available at a low cost.
Requires a set of percentile dice and a six-sided die (a four and eight-sided die are also needed on occasion).
