That'd make sense. Similarly, one could play Ogre on the ASL boards and ignore the hills.

I was the first Errata Coordinator for BattleTech, some twenty years - and two companies - after it was released. There's a reason I recently sold off my entire collection for that game. :D

Huh!

I knew about your contributions to the Master Unit List, but not that. I've greatly enjoyed our previous conversations along those lines, however...that Battletech is desperately in need of a new edition, given that it's been 20-ish years since the last one and the system has been struggling for at least 10 with equipment rules / etc it was never designed to accommodate so are held in place by rubber bands, duct tape, and dried mayonnaise.

This question was brought up in reverse on the FB pages. What game maps could you play Ogre on.
I can see some of the newer games like Old School Tactical being used both ways. Also Armageddon Wars. I'll have to see if I can find that post,

Pretty much any 6mm wargame set in the modern or later era.

Interesting! (Says the person with a stock of S&TO Countersheets.)

But seriously folks, following on from watching the recent 're-skins' work, just wondering where some S&TO counters might find alternate homes, or can be adapted & re-skinned for new overlays perhaps? Who was it who had the Ogre Map designer package?
