How many folks here use Minis while playing an RPG? Shadowrun or anything else really...but primarilly SR.

There used to be minis for SR. They were allright, but I'd love to see either the old ones re-released or maybe even make up some new sculpts for the game.

I don't use the minis so much for measuring the movement and all that (I don't want my SR games to become D&D or worse, a Minis Wargame), I use it for a general tactical overview, the bad guys are HERE, the exits HERE, etc.

Anyhow, I love minis in my RPGs, and would love to see IWM put the SR minis back out or new sculpts made. What do you guys think?
