Does anyone here game with MicroArmor? Back in the dark ages when I started gaming, that was all the rage. Historicon was full of MicroArmor games. At Cold Wars this year, I think there was one MicroArmor game all weekend.

Never played ( started three yaers ago) but i'm curious: ca you explain what it looked like, who published it and how it worked on the whole?

It's a set of rules published by GHQ that uses the company's MicroArmor figures.

Never seen it played myself, so I can't comment on the gameplay.

Yes, but it is also a generic term for 1:300 or 1:285 scale figures and any set of rules using those figures.

With a new edition of Blitzkrieg Commander coming out, and Cold War Commander to follow, there may be more folks getting into it. I've sold off all my 1:300 and 1:600 stuff, but before i did I used both of those sets, as well as Panzertruppe and a few other sets.


WAY WAY back I used Challenger/Challenger 2000 for moderns.
