I've been getting into wargaming lately. What's your favorite system? I've been working into it by playing some of the space games (Battlefleet Gothic, Babylon 5 Wars, etc). A friend of mine is trying to push me into the money suck that is Warhammer, and so far, I've successfully resisted.

I prefer Soldier's Companion, a set of rules by the now-defunct GDW that simulate Victorian-era combat. It's easy to learn and fast to play. I do most of my creative work in GDW's House Rules System, which they used for most of their role-playing games, but which also has ancilliary ground-combat and space-combat miniatures rules. Plus it has a great design system for creating the sinews of war for that otherworldly feel.
