Wargame miniatures
These are currently perhaps the most popular
miniatures. They are mostly put to use by people who play "Wargame". With
extensive game rules, (historical) battles are reenacted with all kinds of
miniatures. The miniatures are usually made of metal, but plastic figures are
also used. The figures most frequently used are 28 mm tall, with figures of 15
mm and smaller sometimes involved in play. Although the games are often
based on history, there is also a wide range of fantasy-themed games.
