Come to the Dark Side - come to the Miniatures! Bwahahahaha!

Actually, the Dart Wars were run using my HeroBand rules - which are stripped own HeroWars/Quest with a bit more formalization of things like Ranges and Movement rates. Heroband is small-unit - the basic band is 3-5 heroes plus a number of followers for each hero. Only heroes do actions, the followers are there to aid their hero by augmenting them, and taking wounds for them (in true follower fashion). A band also has a wyter/lares/otherworld guardian.

We have a Yahoogroups list for them (and other Minis Wargames for Glorantha, one of these days I need to buckle down and get the Grand Strategic rules written up...) http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Glorwar/.
