Tin soldiers? A long time ago little kids played with tin soldiers. They grew up to be grownups and still they played with tin soldiers, only now they recreated battles of epic proportions. Folks still do this, and the quality of the miniatures is sometimes amazing. Some people play the games, some just paint and collect.
