Came across the Bunnies and Burrows ttrpg, and it made me wonder if there was a wargame equivalent. I mean, the Warriors series is still super popular, sk there's gotta be a cat-bases wargame somewhere!

Yeah, I'm specifically looking for a thing that will give me lots of minis I can paint with my fiancee, who isnt interested in faceless military dudes or ugly monsters or mechs but is perfectly down with role-playing realistic war in her D&D campaigns. Something in the vein of Watership Down or the Warriors series would be perfect.

I don't play tabletop wargames, so I can't personally recommend it, but looking online, I see a lot of references to Burrows and Badgers.

I'm not sure if that's what what you're thinking of wargame-wise, but it has miniatures, and is described as a "skirmish-style wargame". It's also called an "RPG-style wargame" on Wikipedia, though, so I'm not sure if it falls too close to the RPG camp for you.

I think Burrows and Badgers is exactly whay i am looking for.
