Wonder

Wonder is a game system developed to play quick wargame battles between two or more players - to enable the concept of "I wonder who would win if X fought Y." The game is fine tuned and designed for quick strategic battles. For example, all the action takes place on a simplified battlemap that uses hexagon Zones where the action will occur instead of exact distances. Most units only have one stat (Quality) and some Powers to make them unique. Quality is ranked by the five basic die types: D4 to D12 to provide a relative scale from average to epic. An average D4 unit may actually beat an epic D12 if the dice roll just right. Finally, actions only require one roll and sometimes the difference matters (in Combat) while sometimes the number of successes matter (Movement and Spells).
