I've downloaded both and I even have unpainted 3mm WW2 minis in the lead pile. But never got around to playing. They'd probably give a similar feel to the Portable Wargame WW2 rules, I think.
Cheers

For Operational level games, might also be worth looking at Martin Rapier's free Panzer Gruppe rules tgamesweplay.blogspot.com/p/downloads.htmland the PZ8 Divisional WW2. Both very simple but subtle games on 2 sides of A4! Simon |

I have Pz8 somewhere. I'm also looking at these: D-Day to BerlinBut whether by design, good fortune or genius, Phil Barker hit on a sweet spot with the combination of 12 elements and d6 for PIPs. It provides a great balance of decision points, resource management and tactical play together with speed and the "look" of a battle. That's why it's so adaptable (HOTT, DBN, HITT, HOTE, DBA-RRR, DBA-HX). If you work out the right organisational level for WW2 or Modern that gives ~12 elements then you're probably halfway there.
