Ah, let him try - I didn't start the mini stuff that young, but if he
can squeeze out
an allowance or birthday money or Christmas or something, he might be
able to put some stuff together. A blister here, a blister there...
I was curious also because that seems to be some of their target market,
and
I wondered how much of the hype he bought.

I would recommend a table, certainly. Try a folding table, or just a
piece of
wood you can throw over your bed - something. Don't worry about painting
it
and all that - a big green piece of cloth works fine, and it's usually
pretty
cheap. If you have a good local store, that's a great place to play,
especially
with a painted army - brings in the new blood pretty well, and they
usally have
the table part covered.
