Buy two of the Master sets, two of the bridge expansions, and two of the castle expansions. Then buy up all of the army packs you can find, which sell for about ten bucks. You get a fun and very simple wargame system (which, if you still have your old Hero Quest board game laying about you can use as a supplement/compliment, as they both use the same system), and a ton of minis for roleplaying. Some are kind of goofy looking, but how pretty does a mini really have to be?I picked up a pack of 60 mini-sized ninjas for $2. When I was a lad, I bought a sack of Fantasy themed toy soldiers, like the tub of army guys only with wizards and monsters and knights riding dragons. I wish I could find those again, I only paid about a dollar.I second the dinosaurs option. You can also find insects in similiar packs.Hunt through dollar stores! I picked up some Yugioh minis that I took a pen knife and removed the wanky bases from. Also, you can find Horror Clicks and Mage Knight bits for cheap.Mega Bloks has a dragons series, and I have a few of those pieces laying in the mini's chest.I picked up a Samurai Jack and Aku "mini", each out a gumball machine. OH, at closeout stores you can pick up MOTU minis! From the latest series, of course.Hope this helps! I've done this myself for quite some time.</blockquote>
