"I think you'll find that points pre-dated something as modern as Squad Leader. The old Skytrex micro armour rules for instance, WRG 1925-50 or some of Bruce Quarries efforts." Point systems are older even than that Chess pieces have had relative values assigned to them since at least the early 1800s |

There's a pretty lively thread on the merits of having a points system in rules. Actually it's worded to attract those that like them. I want to see how many gamers actually use them. How important are point systems in the rules that you play? | |
not at all | Never use them. |
|---|---|
not that important | I do use them occasionally. |
don't care | I don't care one way or the other. |
yes, I find them handy | I usually game with armies built using points. |
yes, absolutely | If there's no points system, I'm not playing. |
