Yes, but Ogre has a set of miniatures rules, too. That's how I got into
playing DSII; Ogre was too limited.

As a bonus, I can use my microarmour miniatures for both games!

Unfortunately, you can't buy Ogres anymore. They make great Bolos and
DSII allows you to customize them as you wish, something that the
original Ogre doesn't.

If anybody is wanting to get rid of their dust-collecting Ogres, let me
know. . .
