Move, Shoot, Communicate; Simple Sci-Fi Micro-Armor Rules

Posted to my downloads page is a set of solo-friendly micro-armor rules I'm calling Move, Shoot Communicate: Atomic Tank Platoon.  Really the game is fairly generic and could be used for almost any setting or era where combatants fight in small teams using firearms.

As the title implies, the focus is on moving, shooting and communicating, and the basic mechanic is rolling "situational awareness dice" to see if a unit can earn actions.  The game is d6 only and the typical amount of situational awareness dice is 4d6.  Earning an action requires rolling greater than a threshold established by the unit's quality, a`la Song of Blades and Heroes or Chain Reaction 3.0.  My game has a couple twists to hopefully set it apart from those great games and keep the spirit of fire team operations.  First, the activating figure is randomly chosen from only among those figures which can see the enemy (unless of course no unit on a side can see any opponents).  This represents the chaos on the battlefield that erupts upon contact with the enemy.  Second more significant is the communication mechanic.  After a side activates a unit and rolls situational awareness dice to earn and execute actions, that side may activate more units.  Subsequent units get one less situational awareness die each however (from 4d6 to 3d6 to 2d6 to 1d6 for example).  Spending one earned action on communication instead of moving or shooting however prevents the dice degradation.  So if each unit burns an action on communication an entire force may be able to act, each rolling 4d6 to determine actions.  Alternately units may eschew spending time talking on the radio, making only a small number of nonetheless dramatic attacks or movement.

I've playtested the game and it's decent fun.  It works better with larger numbers of units (~8 to10 minimum) and the token and marker requirement is minimal.  Give it a try.

EDIT- Although I haven't playtested it with new dice, I'm convinced the game will work better with d10s vice d6s.  This will allow seven different levels of armor, resulting in Defense Thresholds of 1 to 9 when coupled with a technology bonus to represent active defenses for contemporary and advanced units.  Of course, this requires reducing the move increment to 4cm versus 5cm.
