Description

Poor Bloody Infantry 2006 is an updated version of the previous game PBI II: 15mm Scale Company Actions of World War 2 by the Rules For The Common Man team.

A miniatures game of World War 2 company level combat, PBI is designed to allow fast playing games that finish in about an hour. PBI uses a terrain map made from grid squares to address the old miniatures game problems of micro measuring and determining angles and line of sight.
Army lists are provided that span all the major countries involved and several of the minor ones over the course of the war.

PBI uses a new recon system that is substantially different than the old one, and much faster to apply. Other changes have streamlined gameplay or cleaned up rules that were somewhat confusing in the previous edition.
