[QUOTE="Herschel, post: 5206815, member: 78357"] Your claim of refuting does not constitute proof. In general, they help make complex combat more accurate and efficient, if that sounds better to you. I'm pretty good with spacial concepts but a lot of people are not. Minis help a lot for those that aren't great at them or trying to keep track of more things than they're confortable multi-tasking. They aren't necessarily needed by everyone always, but they're a tool for facilitation. As for neither good or bad, it is exactly because of personal preference they are that way. They will have different "meaning" to everyone rather than having an inherent value either way. As for trends in market research, you're putting the cart before the horse, as it were. The reason they could do market research at all was because minis had been introduced and people were using them to enhance their game. If the game wasn't evolving with the advent of miniatures, Ral Partha would have ever been the only one. I will agree the market research had a big influence on how the game has evolved after the introduction of 3.0, but I disagree with, well, just your starting point of analysis. [/QUOTE]
