I think someone will be making a new game from this. There can be more modifiers to combat (terrain, height, weapon selected vs that creature) than in a traditional minis game.
I'm thinking someone will have something in 2 years. In 4 years from now there will be a good game.

It would be awesome to have all the maps for SWM instantly appear, with current door game status shown on the maps, LOS between characters, etc...

Ah yeah, I saw this video when it first came out, very cool. I also saw a Microsoft Surface table unit at GenCon a couple years back with people playing Settlers of Catan on it, with the physical dice that you roll and the Surface knows what you rolled. It's a very cool setup, and I'd love to own one for gaming if it weren't so expensive.
