Miniatures

Dearest Laserlight,

I play miniatures games, surprisingly, for the miniatures in them. If I liked
pushing cardboard chits around or plotting things on paper, I'd be playing ASL
thankyouverymuch.

Yes, I am not ashamed to admit that I'm a miniatures man first and gamer
second. Anything that kills the minis aspect in the game, kills the game for
me.

What a bizarre thought. I mostly play using a spreadsheet.

I gave up SL somewhere around Cross of Iron.

Then instead of having high speed passes, tell your opponent that there is a
cloud of gas, or gravel, or debris from the last time he came visiting, and
each ship takes 1d6 damage for every
20mu/turn velocity after the first 20.

Or set out a few asteroids and stay where you can hide behind them when he
comes charging through.
