Battle Isle vs Battle Isle '93

This is another N.E.E.D.L.E.S.S production, although this time I do sorta have a reason for it. I have Battle Isle '93 and I'm not sure if I should bother getting Battle Isle, although I definately want Historyline as I consider this to be different enough to be out of the Battle Isle series. Anyway which Battle Isle game do you think is best? I have played both, but haven't played the original for so long it would be unfair for me to vote. I know I used to prefer the original game, probably because it was more 'realistic'.
