Hmmm.. Well, there's DMZ, which I don't have but which I've heard from
numerous sources is pretty lousy. Much like **&*'s BATTLESYSTEM set --
you've diverged far enough from the normal (role-playing) combat rules that
it's a different, more complex game, and not as fun.

Rumor has it there's one in the works from FASA's new interactive division.
It'll probably be quite some time, though.

I'm about to add miniatures to my gaming, too. (We bought a big vinyl
map a while ago, but were using the cardboard heroes from the GM Screen.
Surprise! They're awful.) Therefore, I second Mark's request for advice
on miniatures.. How do most people use them? What are the main
difficulties, and how are those difficulties surmounted?


Blessings,
