Minatures, who uses them?

Thorntangle · Feb 28, 2002

I couldn't game without them. I love minis and have a large collection, mostly unpainted of course. I'm a slow painter, but do some quality work when motivated. To toot my own horn, I scored a perfect 30/30 in the scoring category at the GW Baltimore Fantasy GT 2 years ago. Now if I only find the time to paint more often.

Right now I'm infatuated with Rackham's Confrontation line. Since they are for a tabletop skirmish game divided into warring factions they don't have generic adventurers. They are simply the best minis made right now. Non-stop detail to die for and style out the wazoo. Those French guys know design.

We use minis quite a bit.

Wow! A perfect score? Just to toot Thorntangle's horn a little more that is a really rare thing to see at the GW Tourneys. I would love to see your work - my paint jobs are good but that's compared to bare unpainted metal

Sometimes we play with minis. Depends on the DM, some of them don't like to use battlemaps or minis at all. We like to mix it up a bit, too.

Seeing Thorntangle's work first-hand, I'd also agree with the folks at GW.

Always.

We always use mini's. And if we don't have appropriate ones, I convert ones to match and/or sculpt my own.

Finding stuff for modern games (not sci-fi) is my newest challenge (and a lot of fun)

Minatures, who uses them?

how many of you use minatures and how often?

All the time. Every time we go anywhere we map it out in the mat.

Only in dungeons.

Only during combat.

Never minatures are too hard to put together and the mats are crapy!
