Talking How my RPGs and Miniatures influence each other!

I use miniatures. Lots of em...Seeing as how my first love is miniature wargaming, I will admit that my RPGing tends to rival miniatures gaming at times and in HS, it was even worse. In fact, my RPGing has influenced my miniatures gaming..For example:

- In 20mm I'm building Moderns with a Twilight 2000 1.0 theme.
- In 15mm, I'm building forces to do fights from 2300 and Traveller.
- In micro armor? Cold War hot (usual Soviet Sunday drive to the Rhine) but with an option to do a Soviet-US fight in Iran! Or, the conventional war phase of a certain game....(And they now make Chinese too....)

So yes, there is a LOT of cross pollination. Loren, Frank Chadwick, Frank Frey...it's all YOUR fault. Especially Loren, or whoever wrote that editorial in Challenge about how RPGers should use miniatures!

So, thanks guys! It's helped me discover whole new worlds to blow the hell out of!
