[QUOTE="heruca, post: 5272431, member: 39068"] Someone once asked the exact same question on the boargamegeek site, so allow me to point you to [url=http://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/48628/games-you-can-play-online-via-battlegrounds-virtua]my answer there[/url] (see the Nov 16-18, 2009 comments at the bottom of the page). Of course, that reply was in regards to BRPG, and my comparison was made before other game conversions were released that are directly comparable (e.g., D-Day Dice, Chunky Fighters, and to a certain extent, Close Assault). Now, with BGE, I want to lower the "cost of entry", so to speak, for boardgamers who don't need many of the features BRPG provides, or who want a tool that is more specifically targeted for boardgaming than BRPG. I want more people to be able to enjoy the game conversions I've already made, and the ones I will make in the future.
