No disrespect to this guy TMP link but, $1 USD a figure is cheap? Gimmee a break! I made my fantasy armies out of the following: picture link Note that the AOM figures shown are only the semi-historical ones, but links take you to photos of the full line. I will not go into detail, but would rather let the pictures speak for themselves. Anyway, they paint up well and easy, and average about $.05 USD per figure for the Risk Pieces, and $.15 USD per figure for the Age of Mythology pieces. Now THAT's cheap!  |

Who is cheaper? The game pieces or the gamer buying the pieces? LOL. I have the AoM figures and love them. I also salvaged the little blocks as markers/counters. I ditched the rest of the game as being unplayable. |

My cheap fantasies don't involve toy soldiers. |

You can still get the LOTR figs as replacement parts from Hasbro, and I believe Eagle Games still sells AOM figs. |

Hell, darthfozzywig, my expensive fantasies don't either… |

How big are those risk pieces? I was under the impression they were comparable to 15mm. |

The Risk pieces are a good match for 15mm-at least the archers and goblins. |

Yeah, they are about 15mm. Thanks, John |
