A wargame/rpg campaign for OGRE

This game is very retro in the sense that it combines wargames and simple roleplaying sessions for characters who's ultimate goal is to rise to the heights of political and military power. It is a programmed campaign system that assumes that most opportunities arise due to the random winds of military and political fortune, but that such opportunities can be exploited successfully by clever and daring soldiers and politicians.

I'd really like to get some opinions on this one, but please keep an open mind when reading it. It is neither a typical wargame campaign, nor rpg campaign, but very much its own animal.

Have fun.

I'll have to check out the links. I haven't played OGRE in years!

I think that OGRE is neat to me because of the "one versus many" situation. Sort of like the Rebels assaulting the Death Star. I have several OGRE games from the 1980's, the minigames in black plastic boxes.

Definitely fun for that purpose, though this has the OGREs playing a somewhat more sinister role.
