- I'm not going to requote stuff here, as I'm not responding to something
- specific, but instead something general.
-
- Miniatures use goes far beyond wargames. There is that alluded-to
- WarHammer 40K stuff, there are the RPGers who use miniatures (I've
- done it myself, on occasion), and there are those people (like a
- good friend of mine) who likes to collect, paint, and cast miniatures
- as a general hobby. All these people could contribute something to
- an overall miniatures group.
-
- Rec.games.war, on the other hand, is about one small segment of that
- population. I couldn't see myself voting for it.
