"Miniatures are used in different types of tabletop and miniatures games. Wargaming is one type, but it's also not everyone's cup of tea (or dare we say… blood?). If you're a relative newbie, there are other games that utilize minis, and which don't involve hobby painting, rolling vast amounts of dice and wielding a tape measure to attack…" Main page link Amicalement Armand

Feudal used miniatures but was regarded as a Strategy game rather than a war game. |

Feudal used miniatures but was regarded as a Strategy game rather than a war game. My brothers and I ignored the game and used the miniatures to play Chainmail, among other rule sets. |

So they skipped over Car Wars, Gaslands, various racing games, and just went to board games that involve violence and said they weren't wargames? |

board games that involve violence and said they weren't wargames I'm with you … how are Zombicide, Wings of Glory (nee Wings of War), X-Wing, Monsterpocalypse, and BattleTech not wargames? Mansions of Madness isn't, but I would suspect the others with which I am not familiar (the 40K one in particular) are likely wargames. |
