Squirrel Tactics is a family-friendly hex and counter conflict simulation. You could also call it a tactical level wargame, but without the nasty subject.
In this game two squirrel families try to collect and bury as many nuts as possible, before winter sets in. In the process they have to use the terrain to their advantage, block the opponent from reaching nuts, steal each other's nuts and also throw a nut or two at each other every once in a while. It's mad family-friendly fun, even for the most seasoned Grognard.

This player-aid aims to put all tables, DRM calculation instructions and important additional information on a single A4 page for easy reference.
The right side of the page describes the combat resolution. At the top you have the CRT DRM calculation with all necessary information, so you shouldn’t need to consult other tables or rulebook pages. You can just go from top to bottom.
On the left side you also find the Italian retreat rules for turns 3 - 7.
Terrain types are named according to the game map key.
