If they have the money (or Daddy has the money) then of course they're gonna
be a target audience. And, incidentally, droves of kiddies have always
infested hobby stores. In fact, I would be willing ot be that most of the
folks on this list were at one time the munchkins of which you now speak.

As opposed to the folks on this list who are completely uninterested int he
escapist aspect of these games? I also disagree with the whole "they don't
think" argument. I've played wargames since I was 14, and I put plenty of
thought into them. What you seem to be objecting to is that more thought
goes into force selection than it does into tactics and strategy. Who
cares? Let them have their fun. No one makes you join in.
