Just read about this on the Paperkraft blog, cute fastplay wargame- www.flipitpapercombat.com/index.htmlFlipit: Paper Combat is a fast-paced tabletop miniatures game in a setting similar to WWII. Players lead forces from one of the four major nations into the conflict for Jurop. Armies are built of models players can download, print and build for almost free (you still have to supply the ink, paper, and glue). There are simple starter rules available, which may be supplimented by optional advanced rules to make gameplay more challenging. All heck has broken loose across the planet as the second big war rages on. The Black X army, led by Durp Furror has embarked on a campaign called the Third Strike to conquorJurop. Nothing seems to stop them as they send thier forces into nearby villages to beat up old men and steal candy from babies. With their modern machines of mechanized mayhem they seek to enslave the entire globe under their malevolent rule. At first, other nations were content to stay out of the war, but with the Third Strike's reach growing ever closer, they find themselves thrust into the conflict. The storyline Of Flipit is set at the very onset of the war. As the game progresses, "events" will be posted here where players can play a scenario game and send in their results to help determine the direction of the story.

Been following this when it appeared in the moss eisley cantina of Paper modeling sights "4Chan". I like his simplistic yet unique builds for the figures. Glad he finally updated his blog. But I have not really dug through the rules... though the names definitely lend to the Advance Wars feel.
How do the rules look?

Nice and simple. Not particularly spectular or overly illustrated. Reminds of similar on the freewargamesrules website.

omg I'm in love with this stuff already! for sure after I'll have finished with my MDRG stuff I'm gonna give this game a try, I just love the art style..! only thing is, there ain't no clear mounting instructions: how is one supposed to glue the heads to the bodies? There are no tabs or such, it's kinda not self-explanatory

It isn't that obvious is it? My guess is that the heads fit around the bodies, so should be slightly larger.
