Do the developers have any wish of expanding to the miniature wargaming genre such as Warhammer or Warmachine?

It is doable I think within the confines of the engine if we'd just get a new way to calculate distances. (How about dragging a LINE instead of a square SW? It'd let us set "This is a distance of so and so many meters...." and then use that as a reference. It'd make it QUITE possible to play Warhammer.

I think they probably have plans that adding to the drawing tools and what not that would be able to support wargames a bit better. Honestly though there are other software options out there like VASSAL and Battlegrounds that handle wargames a bit better out of the box than Fantasy Grounds does.

Not really. I haven't been the most active on programing lately.
