For my fallout game if the weapons went past there accuracy they had another set of numbers say 14 - 17 with a  50% to hit and past that it always misses. And for damage I compared it to the type of armor the enemy was wearing all the armor had a defense number and it would deduct that from the attack

Yes but I mean, oh nvm I've got an idea

Take a look at any game that use large amounts of enemies.

Spoiler: Here is also something to motivate you to continue that. (click to show/hide)

Welcome to Stalingrad. You are about to begin the greatest moment of your life. The Germans have lost hundreds of tanks and planes. Hitler's brutalized hordes are now advancing towards Stalingrad over mountains of their own dead bodies. Our Bolshevik Party, our nation, our great country, has given us the task not to let the enemy reach the Volga and to defend the city of Stalingrad. Forward against the enemy! Up into the unremitting battle comrades, for Stalingrad, for our great country! Not one step back! [A Stuka attacks the boat; two soldiers jumps off into the river and Durasov shoots them] Cowards and traitors will be shot! Do not count days, do not count miles, count only the number of Germans you have killed! Kill the German! This is your mother's prayer! Kill the German! This is the cry of your Russian earth! Do not waver! Do not let up! Kill! Death to the German invader!"

[elitetaco3519]

[Phantom]

I simply refuse for you to use Countries At War. There is simply nothing you can add, you will just slander it more than me.

[adwarf]

Yep. The main problems were:
1: The way of selecting countries was very crude, but likely the best I could get.
2: The battles took way too long for me to do.
3: Keeping track of everything also was a problem.
4: The units were very likely unbalanced.

The first could be fixed by either using real world maps, or making a much bigger map with names and such, and the second could be fixed by just using a few dice rolls instead of a shitton of dice rolls.

Also, adwarf, just in case you're wondering, if you really want to put my game's old rules on the OP, go ahead. But a warning; they're quite... Ehh, not that great.

[adwarf]

Its ok and anyways I do 1 roll per unit type much simpler (d10) and I was going to use the actual Europe map

Seriously dude!? If somebody amasses several legions of infantry, how do you do that huh!?

[adwarf]

Ok I had an idea

Name: Call Of Duty ( help with this part its a suggestion game

Story: You are the commander of the 4th Battalion ( the battalion has a minimum of 10 and a max of 50 people )

Ok now I need Help with characters to put in the battalion heres the format

Name:
Rank:
Weapons:
Class:

now example

Name: Christopher Ashford
Rank: Private
Weapons: M1A1 Thompson
Class : Machine Gunner

So will you guys help me make some rules for combat and a system for buying new equipment as welll as some characters to use

[adwarf]

I just told you say someone has 100 Infantry ,  50 Archers , and 10 cavalry
That would be three rolls one for the infantry, 1 for the archers, and 1 for the calvary
