For whatever reason last night, I was looking for something to read and pulled my old copy of Battlesystem (the red box version) off the shelf and was paging through it.
It got me wondering - how many folks here had or have played primarily D&D mini battle games?
So I was just curious if you play/have played the following, and what your opinion of it was.
Chainmail (70's version)
Battlesystem
Battlesystem Revised (2E era)
Battlesystem Skirmishes
Chainmail (3E version)
Dungeons & Dragons Miniature Battles (DDM)
D&D Heroquest
[sblock]
Chainmail 70's - never played
Battlesystem - owned, tried the introductory scenarios but didn't like it
Battlesystem 2E - own, but never played
Battlesystem Skirmishes - so close to D&D rules, didn't see the point
Chainmail - tried a sample game, thought it was a sorry version of mageknight
D&D Minis - collected the minis, hated the game until the 4E version, then hated the minis
D&D Heroquest - owned regular heroquest, too many fiddly bits building terrain
