Description

Бpoнeпeхoтa is a miniature game similar in concept to games like Warhammer 40,000, albeit more simplified with a younger age group as the main demographic. Set in the world of CTAPCИC [STARSYS], it is a distant relative of the БИТВЫ FANTASY [Battles of Fantasy] game also published by Tehnolog. Miniatures are slightly larger (40mm) than the scales common in other wargames, and vehicles utilize more action-based features such as spring-loaded launchers that tied into the gameplay. While the more affordable price point made it popular with gamers, it never saw an international release outside of Russia, Ebay, and Amazon.

First launched around 2002, it featured numerous boxed sets, most of them intended as ready-to-play experiences for two players. However, at least two infantry squads of that time were targeted by a GW lawsuit due to their extreme resemblance to GW miniatures (such as Ruthenian militia, near-identical to Valhallan IG troops, and tribunators, near-identical to Space Crusade style Space Marines); the molds were destroyed (or so they claim). Later, the majority of 2002 sets were discontinued.

The 2008 relaunch included three mission starter kits in the Fall of 2008, each featuring two different squads and some vehicles as well; Snare Mission, Liberation Mission, and Storm Mission. Three environment sets were also released that included large urban terrain pieces that had slight variants of the force units.
