About the game

What is Ogre Miniatures?

Rules for use with OGRE and G.E.V. miniatures adapting the hex-and-counter mechanics for table-top (hexless) use with OGRE Miniatures. A gratis slimmed down version (Ogre Miniatures Lite) is available from the publisher's web site. Also, a free supplement (Ogre Miniatures Update) is available on W23 (SJGames's online store). The 1992 hard copy edition has been supplanted by a new 2018 hard copy "Second Edition" via Kickstarter in Fall 2018. Also available in a complete box game with miniatures; OGRE Battle Box (2018).
