[UA] UA the Miniatures Combat Game (Was Re: Bitterness)

[Tyrant]

Apparently (And happily) Im not the only one that thought it was a Different
game altogether, based purely on the name

I too spent alot of time passing the game up because of the "Armies" part

But then, after buying it and reading it (Still haven't got to play it) I
completely understand the title
