Alien Squad Leader is a Science Fiction miniatures wargame for 15mm scale models based as five-man squads, now in it's second edition. The basic concepts of the game are designed to be easy to pick up, but special rules, army lists, and varied tactical options give added depth.

Alien Squad Leader is intended to be different from the majority of Science Fiction miniatures rules currently available. It is not meant to be a realistic, near-future, technology-heavy ruleset that fights small actions resembling present-day combat. It is also not a heroic Science-Fantasy battlegame set in a dark gothic future. You can find plenty of excellent rulesets that are like these already. However, if what you are after is an innovative development of HOTT/Warmaster, with a generic, B-Movie, Science-Fantasy feel, that allows you to play a game featuring over 100 miniatures in about three hours then Alien Squad Leader is the game for you!

The following army lists are provided in the rules -

Human Imperial, Human Colonial, Outlaw Gangs, Imperial Strike Force, Alien Imperial, Alien Warrior Caste, Tripods, Alien Enslaver, Cyborg Enslaver, Mechanoid, Hive Mind, Victorian Imperial, Children of the Gods, Alien Greys.
