Also idea, how about like warhammer 40k with the figurines for a strategy game?
Honestly i was thinking about something like that the other day.
I was listening to some Fire emblem music. That game series is old, running on its first iteration on a NES running on a 6502 at 1.7 MHz. At that rate you could run a very similar game engine on paper and pencil. Even D&D is more complex than that and runs fine. You can make you own "maps" and "units" either as figures or written character sheets if you are more of a frugal person. And can be done so that if falls under fair use so we can save teh lawyer money.
I was thinking things like printable folding figurines honestly :kathrin:

I dont know how printible folding figures would stand up against plastic ones. It would be a lot cheaper, yes, but i guess it would lack detail a bit and wheres the fun when you cant paint it and put it in a diorama. Maybe like that soviet :kathrin: sketch ( https://www.deviantart.com/twokinds/art ... -775187154 ). Id love to have that next to my IS 2M conquering Berlin. (Although my usual 1:72 scale might be a bit small for that)
Besides, wouldnt those Paper figurines be a bit flat?
