While I am old enough to remember most of them, I only voted for those I have played. We surely seem to have a bunch of gamers that must have started just within the past 20 years or so and if they haven't heard of the game, how can we expect them to try to honestly rate them? Maybe another option should be "Never heard of that one?" and let us go down the list first before asking the top 5?
Having played and enjoyed several of R.S. Nelson's rules(ICE & FOF), which date from the 80's and employed several new(for the time) innovations. I think they deserve an update or at least a reprint.
Interesting for me to see that Empire is now regarded as an obsolete rules set when I can remember a time when these wre all the rage and you could hardly find a Napoleonics group that wasn't using them.
I personally never found them very enjoyable or playable and sold my Empire II rules long ago and never bothered to keep up with later editions. But evidently Empire is now gone and there could be a demand to reissue it.
