If you want to buy a big box fantasy game with tons of miniatures, I suggest BattleLore. Similar to Memior '44 it's the fantasy wargame that everyone is raving about. (In a similar vein War of the Ring is supposed to be pretty impressive as well) Also I hear Fantasy Flight games is working on a Starcraft game.

A Starcraft game, you say? That happens to be on page 1 of the catalog.

Sorry about That

Right, I should have told you that you don't need to worry about that anymore. Thanks anyway, though.

And Shadows incarnate, that's a big ogre, particularly if he actually has 15 Agility (which gives him an excuse for having an axe in each hand).
