Oh wow! Now that's cool. Matzo, you should check out H.G. Wells' Little Wars. Not sure if this game would work with his rules, but maybe if modified a bit. It would only make sense to follow rules made by Wells himself.  |

The WOTW game you emntion is not really a game as such. As far as I am aware, it all came about when the PC game came out in the late 90's. The trend caught on from there. I have seen various scales of this game, usually at some sci-fi shows and no doudbtly game shows. I even saw one with the 1/100th scale Fighting Machines, thats 13 inches in height for those not familiar with scale.
Would be nice if someone like MONOPOLY came about with a WOTW type game.
