I have rated both of these games a 10 here on BGG. So get both!
Mage Knight is for 1-2 players, Runewars for 3-4 players.

Interesting. I've played Runewars a few times, and I felt that it went bad with 3 players, good with 2 and 4 players. Did your group not experience any stalemate with 3 players, where nobody wants to attack anybody else, to not give the 3 player an opening?
I've played many 3 player games of Runewars, they are always bloody backstab-filled competitions from start to finish. They go something like this, one player gets a nice lead and more powerful than the other two, the two gang up on the one, beating him down a bit, inevitably one of the two backstabs the other at an opportune moment and then the original leader attacks either one or both. Whoever is leading is always targetted, so to win a 3 player in my group is pretty awesome, much harder than winning in a 2 or 4 player game. No one complained about it being anything like a stalemate.
