That is one reason I don't like D&D, it is a glorified boardgame the hides it's wargame roots under a very thin layer. I like tactical rpg on the computer but investing that level of math and detail in a pen & paper game is so boring, for me at least.

If you actually have to use that much math more than once in a blue moon, you're doing it wrong.

If I think more about it i come to conclusion that is not really the math per se, but what I find boring is that 90% of the rules (measured by feeling) are about battle and battle takes such a huge and detailed part in the game.

That's fair. Perhaps another style of DMing and/or a different system are more your speed.

And there are more then enough systems out there for everyone to find his perfect match and then some.
