Sounds too much like a 19th century game.

Same thing. It sounds like sabres and bayonets. In fact, I did a Google
search
on '"cold steel" wargame'. Every entry used the term "cold steel" to
represent
swords. I found reference to "Cold Steel" being used for the name of an
18th
century miniatures rules set.
>Man Down
This could work, though it's a bit sexist for a sci-fi game. Wonder if
we can
come up with another term than "man"?
