Are there many super hero themed games out there? The one's I've seen were all RPGs. |

Heroclix comes to mind (CMG).
I had a Marvel themed version of Heroscape which I donated to my library. But my superhero play these days is running the 1980's MSHRPG, aka FASERIP. If could be done with minis, but I don't have any for it, and the scale would be tiny. |

SuperSystem is one. The company puts out others (very similar) that are not based on particular miniatures. |

I have been working on my own supplement to my own wargame rules but not ready for a game yet. Bunkermeister |

Most RPGs would work just fine for tabletop wargaming, wouldn't they? |

Super System and Super Mission Force are good smack down focused games.
And yes, any Super RPG will play just fine as a pure combat game. |

Played some "Superhero 44" and "Squadron UK" years ago; we used minis to play out scenarios. |

Given the variety of miniatures games, putting something played by one in eight of us in the "you don't play" category might be a bit harsh. Is there ANY single category of miniature warfare played by the majority of TMP members? Not many would be my guess. Possibly only fantasy skirmish and WWII land? |
