Neil Fawcett joins Craig and Russ in the third chair. Neil has lead Spartan Games through the uncharted seas of the miniature gaming industry, through the firestorm of competition, and emerged with a rather successful miniature war gaming company. (See what I did there? Couldn't quite fit dystopian in...)
Up first, Russ and Craig discuss the miniature manufacturing process with Neil. How exactly are miniatures made, and how has the process changed and improved over the years.
Later the three consider what kind of mechanics best emulate realstic timeflow in miniature games.
