Message: <blockquote data-quote="aramis erak" data-source="post: 9782001" data-attributes="member: 6779310">Sometimes.Minis wargames, if it's skirmish scale, yes. For me, the division between RPG and skirmish minis game is just one of whether there is provision for non-combat actions in the rules. And I can see doing RP with WH40K:RT... and have done so with Car Wars, the one time I played Gaslands, every time I've played Space Hulk (dozens, but still in the hole price wise), the playtest of Star Fleet Marines (ADB), WEG's Star Wars Miniatures Battles; it's directly crossover with their RPG.Character scale boardgames, too. Sometimes, in Shadows over Camelot, almost always in Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Game. (link for clarity: <a href="https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/805/buffy-the-vampire-slayer-the-game" target="_blank">Buffy the Vampire Slayer: The Game</a> ). VERY much in Candamir: The First Settlers. Some in AH's  Robin Hood, and TFG's Musketeers. And in 3X/4X, yes. And  The Game of Life.And, of course, any single-player-per-craft combat games, from Ace of Aces to Lost Worlds to FASA's Starship Duel series. Even when the ships have massive crews - then I'm playing as the CO.But not so in games like The Great Khan Game or Dominion, as it's too abstract from the theme for it to increase win potential, nor in games like Azul or Quirkle, where the whole thing is abstract.Operational level games, such as Boots and Saddles don't get me RPing, either. I enjoy them, tho.Hammer of the Scots is another no RPG element for me... it's strategic, as is Victory and Pacific Victory... I quit victory when they randomized the expansions...</blockquote>
