I thought this would be fun.

What games have you seen Reaper minis used in. I'm sure Warlord and CAV would be obvios so what other games have you see them used.

 

For me it has been Bushido, Earthdawn, and Dungeons and Dragons.

 

I've personaly used Reaper for running verious incarnations of D&D and used a Reaper mini for Bushido.

I have also seen Reaper used for Earthdawn but can't remember if it was when I played or not.

mostly in some variation of D&D, but with the Chronoscope line Im looking to add them to my Adventure! game (which is why I picked the armies I did... nothing screams pulp like mummies, undead pirates and savage lizardmen... they will have multiple functions) and the wild west

The only miniatures game I actually play is Blood Bowl and I've bought several teams' worth of Reaper figures for BB conversion purposes, and I've seen many others on BB forums using Reaper figs in their teams, as well. Reaper figures are especially popular for Undead and Necromantic teams in Blood Bowl (Zombies, Werewolves, Flesh Golems, etc.) and I have some for those, and also a variety of Barbarians for a Norse team; I find that Reaper figures also make great coaches/assistant coaches, wizards, and cheerleader conversions, too.

I think the real question is "in what games can Reaper miniatures NOT be used ?"

I was going to respond 'checkers' but then I thought of a couple of ways to do Checkers. I am surprised to see no one has yet mentioned Warhammer Fantasy. I have seen whole WFB armies done with RFs. There is also the much less well known fantasy mass combat game Armies of Arcana.

Crocodile Games Wargods of Aegyptus. I have a whole unit of mummies, and many of the Egyptian themed figures show up as priests and priestesses (I think about every player I know has the topless Egyptian priestess SOMEWHERE in their army!!) The new Dire Croc will show up there as well!

 

Almost my whole D&D group uses Reaper figures as characters. I converted and painted a few to be used by a customer in Warhammer Roleplaying game because their characters had no usable figures by GW!

I use Reaper for just about everything:

 

Warhammer Quest

Hero Quest

Talisman 2nd Edition

Legends of The Old West

I may be purchasing Legends of the High Seas

Necromunda

Mordheim

Blood Bowl

 

If the game has miniatures, I'm probably customizing it with Reaper miniatures and conversions.

My checkers set is all Reaper minis. Specifically the lil' Death that came with the '07 Christmas Sophie. ::D:
