A Fantasy Skirmish Game

[abhorsen950]

Basically Fantasy War/skirmish games are my real thing and i was really interested in playing DND minis but then discovered it isnt being produced by WOTC But by DDM a fan run set-up this nerved me slightly so i was thinking of using the Monster Manual and DnD/GW Figs so i could play some nice little warband type skirmishs
Using the stats in the Monster Manual for the monsters fighting.
Do you guys think this will work?

Have you had a look at the new Otherworld Fantasy Skirmish Game?
It is very much based on Old School, 1st edition dungeon fighting.

The rules for the original and reboot Chainmail are out there and available if you search. They can be adapted for a wide range of minis.

Frankly: No.
DDM rules were really good, though. The D&D Guild had been doing an excellent job converting the D&D Minis to the new ruleset and introduced a bunch of new stuff, like magic items.

Dungeon Command is also a very good game, although some complain because it doesn't use dice.

If you don't mind the Star Wars theme, I also enjoyed playing the 'Imperial Assault' Skirmish game. In fact it reminded me quite a bit of Dungeon Command except it uses dice in addition to cards.
