[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 9595811, member: 6796661"] Sorry for contributing to that. I have a bad habit of not reading through the entire thread before responding to a post. I think thats why it can sometimes feel like a pile on. Not that most posters are trying to pile on, they are just responding at the same time others are responding or are not caught up with the thread. In any case, yeah, it would be silly for someone to argue that their experience represents how everyone played at any given time. Whether a group played with minis back in the days before cheap shipping and the interest, would depend on whether there were hobby shops near by, your ability to drive, how much your parents accommodated your hobby, how much disposable income you had, and personal and group preferences. We used minis a bit in OD&D and AD&D but mostly winged it with ToTM, scratch paper, or using whatever small items we had on hand. I didn't really get into minis until late high school and Warhammer 40,000k, which was was a miniature battle game and which sucked up much of my summer and after school job income. [/QUOTE]
