 If I'm going to play with the minis, I try to keep detail to
a minimum. It just hurts too much to see the damage accumulate
in transport and play.

 I try to detail my command and specialty stands, and just mass
produce the grunts. In a perfect world I would do the uniform
buttons and nametags, but well....
