Thanks to Imperial Shipyards via Niub Niub for the heads up on this. We know Seth Green is into colelcting action figures, but this is the first celebrity I’ve seen who actually did what we do, paint military gaming figures and create dioramas for them.

I love seeing stuff like that. Have you seen the old pics of the guys we'd think of as 'stuffy old Brits' doing the wargaming and such?

That's cool about Cavill.

Here's a pic of HG Wells wargaming:

And the article about him 'creating' gaming.

knew about all those, and it is cool. They even make it feel cool. HG Wells inventing rules for basic figure war-gaming is a very under-utilized bit of info. If I was a games publisher, I'd lead in with that in every production I made
