[QUOTE="GQuail, post: 2995575, member: 30709"] When going through my bedroom in my parents house last week, I came across a stack of an old CCG called "Champions". Dunno if it was a UK thing only or not, but basically it was a simple combat game with a mishmash of vikings, saracens, knights and monsters and weapons/spells for them to use. The trick was that each card had scratch-off portions: you scratched off the stas of each warrior when they lost to weaken them, and if they won a battle you scratched off a mark at the bottom to add another skull to their collection. ;-) A game with self-destructing pieces is somewhat awkward to sell, but something of the same ilk might be something to spruce up D&D miniatures. Perhaps the stat cards have scratch-off panels for treasure when you kill the monster, so the non-combat stuff he's carrying is hidden until needs be? Perhaps a heat-sensiitve sticker (Transformers-style) under each miniature to reveal his name or level? It kinds plays them up more as "toys" than "roleplaying aides", but isn't that part of the goal here? [/QUOTE]
