How are miniatures made?

Warhammer Fantasy, 40000 and Lord of the Rings miniatures are made by the Citadel group. They employ designers, who create either modeling putty or CAD mock-ups of the models. These are then cast into Miniatures, in either plastic, or a metal alloy. They are typically cast in sprues, to keep related parts together. It is then the role of the player, to piece the models together with glue, and paint them.

What is Heroclix?

Heroclix is a very interesting strategy board game, which is played with different collectibles or action figures from all of the comic books you could ever imagine. Heroclix has three groups: DC (Superman, Batman, Justice League), Marvel (Spider-man, Wolverine, Fantastic Four, X-men, Avengers), and Indy.

The game procedures are very hard to explain, but if you want to know how to play, go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page, and type 'heroclix' in the search place. Or visit www.heroclix.com to know all about the tournaments, action figures, and etc.

Also, heroclix are hard to find in local stores, and most of them are sold in booster packs. Individuals may be sold, but are very rarely sold like that. Heroclix may be bought, traded, or even won in international tournaments, or local tournaments, if your neighborhood is a 'heroclix' neighborhood.

How do you hold table quarters in warhammer 40k?

Are Lizardmen the best Warhammer Fantasy race?

I consider Lizardmen to be the opposite of elven armies in many respects, borrowing elements of both dwarven and undead armies. Lizardmen have low WS, BS and initiative, extremely powerful characters and cheap troops, much like undead. They also have warriors with high strength and toughness, as such, they are resistant, disciplined and as strong as dwarves. Although not unbreakable, they will almost always stand their ground. Troop variety, however, is one of their weak spots. They tend to be very predictable.

In games like Warhammer the armys try to be as balanced as possible so there technically is no best army.
