Rifter 22 mass army rules

Unread post by RavenStarver »

One of my players just took control of a tribe of Coyle barbarians after defeating their leader in single combat, so I've started adapting some of my plot points to revolve around larger engagements.
I'm curious if anyone has used these rules before? If they work well? But mostly, how do the players themselves, their characters, affect the battlefield?
Like, the Knight probably couldn't do much by himself against an army unless he's got some epic magic items. But, a Mind Mage might be able to do some serious damage to an enemy unit with some Super TK or Pyrokenesis.
I'm curious to hear if anyone has any input for this?

First off, what are the characters? Secondly, I would give the a visual to work with...I suggest using minis for the battle...be they cardstock or what ever...that away you can allow them to have control of their men. See the website drivethrurpg.com for some minis.

Characters, we've got a Wolfen knight who was raised by human nobles, a Coyle Thief, a Bearman Monk, and a Kobold Mind Mage.
Using minis is easy because we game on Roll20.

Has nobody used these in a game? I find that surprising
