Fistful of Lead: Core Rulebook

ADD TO WISHLIST >

The long awaited Core Rule Book from Wiley Games, makers of Fistful of Lead, is finally here.

The long-time favorite Fistful of Lead started as a Wild West game with card-driven mechanics that created Hollywood action.  Now Wiley Games presents the Core Rule Book.  The Core Rule Book can be used with multiple periods and genres, while still giving you the unique card driven mechanics that keep the action going.

We here at Wiley Games love skirmish level wargaming, because we can play new periods or genres without huge commitments of time and money.  In most games, each player can control up to 5-6 miniatures without much trouble. Games can have up to 8 players without slowing down the game. Now, you can dig out all your old miniatures gathering dust and have a game ready to go in a few minutes.

That's why Fistful of Lead Core Rules are so great.  Once you have these rules, the possibilities are endless.

Wiley Games plans to release supplements for all the genres and periods you've had your eye on.  If you are new to Wiley Games Fistful of Lead, this is where your journey begins.  If you are a longtime fan, the future is here.

The very first supplement to The Core Rule Book is Tales of Horror.  Gothic lovers rejoice!

Experienced wargamers and new players alike will enjoy this game. It's perfect for convention games and just one on one skirmishes.

A short question about weapon teams, does it take two of my normaly 5 models to get one or ist the team treated as just one choice?

Greetings,

In this particular version, does a model that rolls d8 or d12 to hit use the same to wound, rather than a d10? Lots of special rules (Grunts, Ranged Fighter, Veteran, Green) taken together seem to suggest that, but I can't see it explicitly written anywhere.

(FoL-H&M seems to use d10s to wound unless the figure is a civilian, but that's a different game.)

Thanks!

Does this replace RELOADED or vice versa? Is reloaded more for wild west and only contains wild west scenarios etc? whereas CORE has scenarios etc for all different settings?

Don't want to sound stupid, but it is a bit unclear to me exactly how to use the Burst/Blast template.
1) What's the difference between Burst and Blast? I see that Blast usually is accompanied by a size, while Burst don't.
2) Are all models under the template hit? Or a hit roll should be made for each model under the template? Rulebook doesn't say very much about this. It just lists weapons that have the Blast or Burst special trait.
3) Also what's the +1 at the centre of the template?

Is there a nod towards fantasy? What are the “sample teams”.

Sample Teams are mostly historical for various eras. Only exception is the Mythical Greece one.
Pretty easy to create your own, by the way, or to stick a fantasy theme to the historical ones.

Not necessarily. It does however give tips for building teams throughout history and clarifies some rules. It will be the building block for all further supplements.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
