[QUOTE="Mark, post: 123766, member: 5"] Lots of interesting thoughts in this thread, and more than I am quoting, but here's a few thoughts about some things and a question that I hope add to the conversation. I lost the interest also and haven't found that the value of the minis compared to the price was quite as easy to reconcile. They charge a bit more because of the addition of the game rules stuff they throw in and it curtailed my interest considerably. This deters D&D players from buying them if they don't like painting at the outset but aside from MK, don't the other minis games require painting? I'm not a minis game player, though I do collect minis for D&D, so I'm not that knowledgeable in that area. There are a few companies coming out with rules along these lines. I'm wondering if the Epic level book will have any thoughts on a "quick and dirty" way to settle such combat. That would be very useful...moreso, IMHO, than a full, new set of rules for such events. This sums up my feeling about this fairly completely except for the playing part. :) I just don't have the time I wish to devote to another game. I'd have been happy with affordable minis that they also built a game around for those who wanted to play, but didn't raise the cost of the minis. I'll bet that term is lost on more than a few of the younger ENBers, so in the interest in bridging the gamer generation gap...
