I think you should have used
Raum Berlin
or
NeuBerlin

The system was taken from a set of "Modern" wargame rules from 1985, published by Tabletop Games (where Ansell and Priestley started).
I think the system of dice in a bag which Bolt Action uses was copied from it, based on who is at Warlord Games.

There seems to be a trend that whomsoever goes first in GW games, wins the battle.
It's a trend that's been there for over 40 years, since the 1st Ed. of Warhammer Fantasy.
What you could do is use the Initiative value (I) for the units.
For each I you put a numbered counter in a bag, and then draw them at random.
The counter has to be equal to or less than the unit's I for a unit to be able to act.
You can either have :
- one set of counters and opposing units act and resolve simultaneously based on their I
- different coloured counters, 1 colour for each side, and sides act on their colour
I'm sure there are members who could 3D print counters for you

I thought I had posted a comment on them this morning from my phone, but I don't see it here.
Those 3D printed figures are very impressive, even before the painting !
If you're starting wargaming now, you should buy a 3D printer before a paintbrush

the alpha legion have deployed a "mole".....true grimdark transport has arrived
From my new found ACE experience, the cutting edges of the wheels should be silver-grey, if white iron.
Of course, as its sci-fi you could paint it gold for titanium nitride hardened wheels.
Titanium oxynitride is the rainbow purple decoration you see on steel.

Given my dice rolls, if Barry's force had stayed home at base having a brew and a smoke, and let me advance on the objectives, I'd have still tripped over my own feet !

You're allowed to paint in the living room !
Where did you get your wife ?
I need to go there and get a new one
-
always escalating things......
Is that barrel envy I hear ?
-
That's a Saracen with rivets
If you take that to the club you'll trigger Steve (again !)
As for the Bagus warhounds, why don't you get some extra and get one of the guys to print you a chariot body for Dragons Rampant games
Chariot with Light Warbeasts, costly but formidable
Add a Spellcaster, it's half an army
You could paint the chariot hounds as the Hounds of Kerenos, white with blood red ears

Is this car going to appear in Gaslands ?
-
it was a much closer battle than it first seems.....the imperial fists holding two quarters right to the end....the well equipped militia I had definitely earned their pay
Do dead militia actually get paid ?
-
I don't understand all the references but they look good and that is what really matters
-
I'm not falling for that trick
I've been out and clean for 40 years
GW aren't getting me back in 🤬
-
The alpha legion are star trek red shirts!
You'll need to explain that Alpharius cartoon to me
I've spent 40 years shunning GW since they abandoned entire multiple RPG communities overnight

Anastasia Del Monte should check the accounts of the Alpha Legion Quartermaster, perhaps he has been buying bolter rounds on Imperium Temu ?
-
I was going to say that Scion looks to hold some Bryan Based Biases
Is that because he's wearing a gimp suit ?
-
"Yeah, whatever Anastasia"
in Mean Girl voice
-
So Alfalfa Del Monte claimed to escape death despite being gunned down with his unit
Perhaps we need to start calling him Anastasia ?
-
Drill some holes and use Xmas lights for the colours
Also, boiler suit !

Here are some ideas I tried to get random cityscapes :
Random Terrain for Urban Settings
Divide area into 12 x 12 inch squares, for each square roll a D10 :
Odds rough ground
Evens building (no roll, use what is available)
If it is an edge square, a roll of 0 is a water feature (actually bottomless chasm, obligatory in sci-fi)
Water Feature
on next square, roll a D6, if 1 it ends, otherwise 80% chance straight ahead, 20% chance turns into an empty square
Each square with a water feature has a 1 in 3 chance of having a crossing (sci-fi style, no rails)
Crossing type 1 in 3 chance of pedestrian crossing (width – 2 militia or 1 Space Marine); otherwise it is a vehicle crossing.
If no crossings are rolled, roll for every square with a water feature, lowest has a vehicle crossing
If a wound is saved on a pedestrian crossing, roll another save, if it is failed, the figure rolls off
