Couldn't say it better myself.

We play it but rarely. When my group or family wants to play a skirmish type game we break out Heroscape. We like it a lot and it is easier for my 8 & 5 year olds to play. My DDMs are mostly for gaming. Now my boys use them in their own made up mini's game all the time. But it is really closer...

Well the financial state I have been in for two years now limits me to about $1,000 a year. That is for 2 cases of each minis set a year (about $800) and probably $200 on magazines/books/novels. When I was much better off money-wise I would say about double that. After that my only other...

None. I have never needed to make rolls for them. Only one of our 4 DMs in the group roll for us and he just rolls spot & listen checks.

Nice write up Merric. I really liked the set but now that I look back at it it may be just because it was the first. My family doesn't play the skirmish game much but the Harbinger set gets left on the shelf when we do. But the set gets a lot of use as minis when we game. Funny that normally...

I am still waiting for my first case of Unhallowed to get here. I agree with the rust monster and giant ant. A gelatinous cube would be great.

Yeah they are still around I think. The last time I read their web site it said they were looking for another supplier for their product. Its a shame because I want some more of them.

It might still be the same game but boy would I miss rolling dice.

The roaches definitely make this strip.

Amen, Brother.

Very rarely. I just don't want to kill off a heavily invested in character for no other reason than the dice said so. Since killing a character is just as much a pain for the DM as the player I hate to do it. Now on the other hand if the PC was doing something stupid to get himself killed well...

I just hope whatever WoTC does it turns out to be worth it in the long run. I am still shocked that to this day we don't have official electronic aids/support in this information age. I have been using a computer to aid my DMing since the Red Box set and my Apple IIe. I currently use Heroforge...

I think this a very important issue. Have they stated the base sizes/scale yet?

Prices seem ok. Can't wait to see what they look like. Any idea on how long a production run will be? That is a good starter but I already have all the orcs and skeletons I need from my DDM addiction so this first set doesn't really do me any good.

I agree with PC. Also a mini-campaign will help you determine the type and style of game the spouse likes so you can tweak your game a bit to include the new player. Also after the campaign just ask her if she had fun, does a longer campaign sound like a good idea, etc. I would never turn down...

Only change needed in my opinion.

PRCs - Never Use Them Turning - Why can't it be a standard roll? Alignment - Mostly ignored anyway. Weapon Sizing.

I read every thread on the first page that intrests me. Then I go to the Minis Trading page, then the software page, then the Rules Forum. I then quickly look at the off topic forum then come back to general and reread any that I am really interested in that has had new replies. Rinse, Lather...

Half-anythings. I just don't see the need. I still allow them but don't really see a reason to have them.

As long as they put out a common stirge I will be happy ;)
